Steffen Trumtrar cc3f414cf2 video: add of helper for display timings/videomode
This adds support for reading display timings from DT into a struct
display_timings. The of_display_timing implementation supports multiple
subnodes. All children are read into an array, that can be queried.

If no native mode is specified, the first subnode will be used.

For cases where the graphics driver knows there can be only one
mode description or where the driver only supports one mode, a helper
function of_get_videomode is added, that gets a struct videomode from DT.

display-timing bindings
=======================
display-timings node
--------------------
required properties:
- none
optional properties:
- native-mode: The native mode for the display, in case multiple modes are
provided. When omitted, assume the first node is the native.
timing subnode
--------------
required properties:
- hactive, vactive: display resolution
- hfront-porch, hback-porch, hsync-len: horizontal display timing parameters
in pixels
vfront-porch, vback-porch, vsync-len: vertical display timing parameters in
lines
- clock-frequency: display clock in Hz
optional properties:
- hsync-active: hsync pulse is active low/high/ignored
- vsync-active: vsync pulse is active low/high/ignored
- de-active: data-enable pulse is active low/high/ignored
- pixelclk-active: with
- active high = drive pixel data on rising edge/
sample data on falling edge
- active low = drive pixel data on falling edge/
sample data on rising edge
- ignored = ignored
- interlaced (bool): boolean to enable interlaced mode
- doublescan (bool): boolean to enable doublescan mode
All the optional properties that are not bool follow the following logic:
<1>: high active
<0>: low active
omitted: not used on hardware
There are different ways of describing the capabilities of a display. The
devicetree representation corresponds to the one commonly found in datasheets
for displays. If a display supports multiple signal timings, the native-mode
can be specified.
The parameters are defined as:
+----------+-------------------------------------+----------+-------+
| | ↑ | | |
| | |vback_porch | | |
| | ↓ | | |
+----------#######################################----------+-------+
| # ↑ # | |

Example:
display-timings {
native-mode = <&timing0>;
timing0: 1080p24 {
/* 1920x1080p24 */
clock-frequency = <52000000>;
hactive = <1920>;
vactive = <1080>;
hfront-porch = <25>;
hback-porch = <25>;
hsync-len = <25>;
vback-porch = <2>;
vfront-porch = <2>;
vsync-len = <2>;
hsync-active = <1>;
};
};
Every required property also supports the use of ranges, so the commonly used
datasheet description with minimum, typical and maximum values can be used.
Example:
timing1: timing {
/* 1920x1080p24 */
clock-frequency = <148500000>;
hactive = <1920>;
vactive = <1080>;
hsync-len = <0 44 60>;
hfront-porch = <80 88 95>;
hback-porch = <100 148 160>;
vfront-porch = <0 4 6>;
vback-porch = <0 36 50>;
vsync-len = <0 5 6>;
};
