[R2 Pro] linux hdmi support

Hi,

After collecting some dts nodes i found out that hdmi is missing vop2 driver in mainline.

There is a vendor repo containing this driver based on 4.19

I currently try to add this driver to 5.15,but it’s huge…i already disabled hdr part as i guess it’s not needed. Maybe anyone can help here and can sort out some more?

Vop2 driver is currently disabled in Makefile to allow building kernel without hdmi support.

For compile tests (currently many errors) just revert this.if it is compilable,then still some things are missing because i add many new fields in existing and new structs which may need handling in mainline code.

Regards Frank

Peter was working on vop2 drivers.

I hope someone can pick it up from where he left so we can have HDMI out soon on rk356x.

Found a newer version here (not much smaller),i’m currently try to get working in 5.15

https://gitlab.collabora.com/benjamin.gaignard/for-upstream/-/commits/5.10_for_rockchip

Benjamin means rockchip people will upstream it by themself some time.

https://github.com/frank-w/BPI-R2-4.14/commits/5.15-bpi-r2-pro-drm2

As this is still huge and many changes in existing files, it’s not easy. Help welcome…got it compiled so far,but maybe i forgot anything or made a mistake.i cannot test yet

Edit: vop2 driver is posted here: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-rockchip/list/?series=581709 There some comments,so i wait for v2 before merging into my public tree. Additionally we need config in board dts similar to this and for resolution bug this seems to be needed. Hdmi audio and gpu support was posted too

Edit 12th december:

Vop2 v2 is reported as broken in quartz64 channel, discussion about clock-hack on patchwork. I first need ethernet working before adding display stuff.

edit Jan 26th 2022: tried vop2v4 on 5.17-rc1: works with 1080p+4k resolution

Edit Feb12th: Have now hdmi-audio working too tested with “speaker-test -Dhw:CARD=HDMI,DEV=0 -c2 -t wav”, headphone is working too, but microphone is not switched from board to headphone (gpio always 0,with pullup conf too)

edit Feb 17: with reduced quartz64 defconfig, gpu works
