Astra系列AI开发套件的显示能力

syna drm/kms driver is supported for the SL16xx Astra RDK platforms.

支持的SoC的显示能力

  • SL1640: Supports Single Display (Either HDMI or MIPI-DSI)

  • SL1680: Supports Dual Display (HDMI and MIPI-DSI)

  • SL1620: Supports Dual Display (TFT and MIPI-DSI)

SYNA DRM/KMS 的配置

Device driver configurations are handled through the defconfig and dts files.

基于defconfig的配置

Following device driver configuration available in defconfig:

  1. DRM/KMS driver

  2. Backlight

defconfig for each platform is given below:

  1. SL1620: myna2_defconfig

  2. SL1640: platypus_defconfig

  3. SL1680: dolphin_defconfig

基于dts的配置

Following device configuration are handled through dts files:

  1. Generic Display configuration

  2. MIPI-DSI Panel configuration

  3. LCDC panel configuration

  4. HDMI TX configuration

dts files of each platform given below:

  • SL1620: myna2-rdk.dts

  • SL1640: platypus-rdk.dts

  • SL1680: dolphin-rdk.dts

SL16XX的dts配置模板如下:

用于SL1640和SL1680的dts

&drm {

    Generic Display configuration

    MIPI-DSI Panel configuration

    HDMI TX configuration

}

用于SL1620的dts

&drm {

    MIPI-DSI Panel configuration

    LCDC panel specific configuration

}

通用显示配置

For SL1640 or SL1680, the default display type on bootup need be specified.

Below are the parameters which need be configured for the display.

  • disp-mode: Specifies the display mode. Whether it is single display / dual display.

  • disp1-res-id: Resolution Id corresponding to a timing information.

More information on the timing and resolution id are available in below file.

<linux>/drivers/soc/berlin/modules/avio/vpp/ca/include/vpp_defines.h
  • disp1-type: Type of the Display1 whether it is HDMI or MIPI-DSI.

  • disp2-res-id: Resolution Id corresponding to the timing information. In case of dual Display, display2 must be MIPI-DSI and resolution id is fixed to 102.

  • disp2-type: Type of the Display2.

SL1640/SL1680单显配置

Default configuration for SL1640 and SL1680 given as below.

  • SL1640 - Single Display mode – HDMI only.

  • SL1680 - Dual Display mode – HDMI + MIPI-DSI

Display mode can be changed in dts. Single Display mode is applicable for both SL1640 and SL1680.

Below is an example for Single display mode.

单显: HDMI显示器模式

&drm {

    disp-mode = <0>;

    disp1-res-id = <24>;

    disp1-type = <0>;

};

单显: MIPI-DSI显示器模式

&drm {

    disp-mode = <1>;

    disp1-res-id = <102>;

    disp1-type = <3>;

};

SL1680的双显配置

双显模式 (HDMI 为主 + DSI 为辅)

&drm {

    disp-mode = <2>;

    disp1-res-id = <24>;

    disp1-type = <0>;

    disp2-res-id = <102>;

    disp2-type = <3>;

};

Note:

  • For MIPI-DSI Display: RESID is fixed to 102 where it takes the custom timing provided in the dts.

  • For HDMI display ID, depending on the capability of the SINK at bootup only 4K or 1080P are supported at present.

SL1620的显示配置

Default display configuration for SL1620 is Dual – TFT + MIPI-DSI.

lcdc_panel node and dsi_panel nodes in dts decide the number of displays. Display configuration will be carried on based on the parameters in section 4.5 and section 4.3 respectively.

HDMI配置

HDMI configuration options in dts are as below:

hdtx-core-config: used to configure HDMI output, it includes bitfields to control below options.

Default options:

hdtx-core-config = /bits/ 8 <1 0 1>
  • HPD handling: to enable/disable handling of sink hotplug. If HPD handling is disabled, output format will be configured on bootup depending on sink capability and retained till next reboot.

  • HDCP control: to enable/disabled HDCP. Currently not handled.

  • FixedModeset: to let SYNA DRM/KMS driver handle the mode setting internally without exposing user interface. If set, it will configure output format without requiring the userspace application to configure output format, any attempt to override the configured format will be ignored.

hdtx-supported-formats: used to list the formats exposed to user via kms mode query.

Default selection:

hdtx-supported-formats = /bits/ 8 <12 9 10 13 22 21 19 26 25 24 61 62 64>

Refer below file for resolution indices in <linux>/drivers/soc/berlin/modules/avio/vpp/ca/include/vpp_defines.h

If needed, this can be overridden using parameter hdmi_preferred_mode , by adding/modifying the same in /etc/modprobe.d/syna_drm.conf .

Example: To override preferred modes as 1080p: hdmi_preferred_mode=1920x1080

Below is out of box default configuration,

  • syna drm/kms driver will internally configure HDMI output format.

On connecting 4K supported sink, 4K30 RGB 8bit format will be selected.

On 1080p TV, output will be configured as 1080p60 RGB 8bit.

  • Preferred mode of EDID is override to 1080p.

面板背光配置

Panel Backlight enable using Linux defconfig and dts.

  1. External backlight driver-based Panel (Example: TI LP855x part of Panel DC)

    1. Enable backlight driver in Linux kernel defconfig.

      -CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE=m
      +CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE=y
      -# CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_LP855X is not set
      
      +CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_LP855X=y
      
    2. Create the entry in dts file for backlight driver.

      backlight@2c {
         compatible = “ti, lp8556”;
         reg = <0x2c>;
      
         bl-name = “lcd-bl”;
         dev-ctrl = /bits/ 8 <0x05>;
         init-brt = /bits/ 8 <0xFF>;
      
         pwm-period = /bits/ 8 <0x00>;
      
         /* CFG2 */
      
         rom_A2h {
         rom-addr = /bits/ 8 <0xA2>;
         rom-val = /bits/ 8 <0x28>;
      
      };
      
  2. Panel using SL16xx SOC PWM to control the backlight.

Kernel dts:

Configure the pinmux to support the PWM Backlight configuration in the dts file. Below are the details for sample panel and SL1680 platform.

panel0-backlight {
    compatible = “pwm-backlight”;
    pwms = <&pwm0 1 1000000 0>;

    brightness-levels = <0 4 8 16 32 64 128 255>;
    default-brightness-level = <6>;
    enable-gpio = <&expander0 4 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
};

pwm1_pmux: pwm1-pmux {
    groups = “SPI1_SS1n”;
    function = “pwm”;
}

&pwm0 {
    pinctrl-names = “default”;
    pinctrl-0 = <&pwm1_pmux>;
    status = “okay”;
};

SYNA DRM/KMS 驱动测试

Upon SL1XXX platform boot-up, display comes up with Weston desktop by default.

To execute sample test application such as modetest, disable Weston using below command.

systemctl stop Weston

modetest is a tool provided by libdrm library and is available as part of the SDK release/image ( /usr/local/bin/modetest )

Following are some of the tasks performed with modetest

  • List all display capabilities: CRTCs, encoders & connectors (DP, HDMI, DSI …), planes, modes…

  • Perform basic tests: display a test pattern, display 2 layers, perform a vsync test.

  • Specify the video mode: resolution and refreshrate.

Below is the syntax.

modetest -M synaptics -s <connector_id> [, <connector_id>][@<crtc_id>]:[#<mode index>]<mode>[-<vrefresh>][@<format>]

Above application with the syntax provides the frame to Primary plane.

To list the connector, CRTC and plane information for the platform, below command helps.

modetest -M synaptics

SL1680 的显示

SL1680, default configuration provides

  • Encoders – 2,

  • connectors – 2,

  • planes – 4 (MAIN, PIP, GFX1 and GFX2)

Sample output of command modetest -M synaptics is as below:
