Port of #410 (splitmodes, against rk-6.1-rkr5.1) to the new default branch rk-6.1-rkr7.2. Same four commits, original authorship and dates, (cherry picked from …) trailers, plus one cosmetic tidy-up. Supersedes #410 unless that one is still wanted on rkr5.1.

Why it isn't a plain cherry-pick

On rkr7.2 the RK3588 HDMI driver forked out into a new file:

rkr5.1 rkr7.2
dw_hdmi-rockchip.c 4902 lines, 15 split_mode refs 2573 lines, 0 refs
dw_hdmi_qp-rockchip.c does not exist 15 split_mode refs, rk3588_hdmi_hardirq

So #410's dw_hdmi-rockchip.c hunks had to be retargeted to dw_hdmi_qp-rockchip.c. Resolving that conflict where git puts it would compile fine and be a silent no-op on RK3588dw_hdmi-rockchip.c no longer binds on this SoC, and the config that matters here sets CONFIG_ROCKCHIP_DW_HDMI_QP=y.

The block moved unchanged, so once pointed at the right file the hunks apply cleanly. The only hand-resolution was dw-dp.c, where rkr7.2 added a dw_dp_dbg macro at the same insertion point as the fixed-mode table; both are kept.

Dropped from #410

The rockchip_drm_drv.c hunk, which set .prime_handle_to_fd / .prime_fd_to_handle. DRM core already falls back to exactly those helpers when the fields are NULL:

if (dev->driver->prime_fd_to_handle) {
        return dev->driver->prime_fd_to_handle(...);
}
return drm_gem_prime_fd_to_handle(dev, file_priv, args->fd, &args->handle);

drm_prime_handle_to_fd_ioctl is the same pattern. It changed nothing at runtime while touching a struct shared by every Rockchip board, so it is left out. Confirmed in the object file: references to those helpers went 2 → 0.

Blast radius

Everything else that touches shared drivers is gated on DT properties that exactly one board in the tree sets (rk3588-blueberry-r58-hd3-linux.dts):

  • rockchip,dp-fixed-modes
  • rockchip,hdmi-skip-ddc-edid
  • rockchip,split-right

The suspend hunk becomes !hdmi->next_bridge && !device_property_read_bool(…), i.e. && true for everyone else. The split-right else branch reproduces the previous code statement for statement. No behaviour change for any other board.

Verified

Cross-compiles for arm64 with Armbian's linux-rk35xx-vendor.config. Zero errors. The one warning, dw-dp.c:3620 (%d vs size_t), is pre-existing — git blame puts it on aeb0172, already on rkr7.2.

The tidy-up changes no code. .text sections before and after are byte-identical:

dw-dp.o                 5b99bf92eb -> 5b99bf92eb  SAME
dw_hdmi_qp-rockchip.o   f2e0460e8f -> f2e0460e8f  SAME
dw-hdmi-qp.o            eac8cde13a -> eac8cde13a  SAME

DTB builds (294274 bytes) with all three properties present and read by the drivers, so the DT gating is wired end to end. git diff --check is clean across the series.

Not runtime-tested — no R58-HD hardware here. This is a build-verified port.

Open review point, deliberately not addressed here

CodeRabbit flags on both this PR and #410 that the two opt-ins are evaluated after the EDID paths:

  • dw-dp.c — the fixed-mode loop sits inside if (edid), so when the EDID read fails (the case the property exists for) you get cached-EDID modes, or zero modes with no cache
  • dw-hdmi-qp.cif (!hdmi->ddc) return 0; returns early, and a cached edid_blob_ptr takes precedence over the property

Both look correct on reading the code, but fixing them changes display behaviour on hardware that cannot be tested from here, and it is a question about the original gating design rather than anything the rebase introduced. Carried over unchanged so the port stays faithful; worth deciding separately.

Walkthrough

The change adds fixed display-mode handling for HDMI and DP connectors. Device-tree properties enable fixed modes or skip DDC EDID reads on selected outputs. The board configuration changes both DSI reset GPIOs to active-high. Split-mode HDMI routing now supports the rockchip,split-right property and selects the corresponding swapped controller interface.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to f46e8

This changes board HDMI/DP mode selection and HDMI EDID handling. HDMI fixed-mode output may still fail when DDC or EDID is unavailable, and the reported duplicate mode can cause ambiguous display-mode selection; these issues should be resolved before merge.

Remove the duplicate 720x480 mode.

dw_hdmi_default_modes contains two identical entries, and the fixed-mode path adds every table entry. The connector therefore advertises 720x480@60Hz twice.

(cherry picked from commit 8a13738)

[port to rk-6.1-rkr7.2: on this base the RK3588 HDMI driver forked out into
 dw_hdmi_qp-rockchip.c, which carries the split-mode block byte-identically,
 so the dw_hdmi-rockchip.c hunks were retargeted there. Left in place they
 would have compiled but never run: dw_hdmi-rockchip.c no longer binds on
 RK3588. dw-dp.c also gained a dw_dp_dbg macro at the same insertion point as
 the fixed-mode table; both are kept. The rockchip_drm_drv.c hunk is dropped:
 it set .prime_handle_to_fd / .prime_fd_to_handle to the same helpers DRM core
 already falls back to when those fields are NULL (drm_prime.c), so it changed
 nothing at runtime while touching a struct shared by every Rockchip board.]
Adds the per-board device-tree properties that gate the display driver
changes in #410 to this board only: rockchip,hdmi-skip-ddc-edid on hdmi0/hdmi1
and rockchip,dp-fixed-modes on dp0/dp1. With the drivers un-gated these are
ignored (no behaviour change), so they are safe to carry ahead of the gating.
(rockchip,split-right already lives on hdmi1 in the board .dtsi.)

Note: the panel-simple reset-polarity gating is intentionally NOT here - it is
coupled to reverting the panel-simple.c change and must land in the same commit
as that revert, else the DSI panel reset inverts.

(cherry picked from commit 132dbb0)
The display changes in this PR were applied unconditionally to shared drivers,
so they regressed every other Rockchip board (HDMI/DP/panel). Gate each behind
a per-board device-tree property so only boards that opt in get the behaviour;
with the property absent the code path is the original upstream one:

- dw-hdmi-qp: skip the DDC EDID read only under rockchip,hdmi-skip-ddc-edid
  (and restore the suspend-time EDID clear for everyone else).
- dw-dp: use the fixed mode list only under rockchip,dp-fixed-modes; otherwise
  fall back to drm_add_edid_modes() as before.
- dw_hdmi-rockchip: keep the rockchip,split-right opt-in swap, but restore the
  original conditional ROCKCHIP_OUTPUT_DATA_SWAP in the default branch so other
  split-mode boards are not forced to swap.
- panel-simple: revert the global reset-polarity inversion (a generic driver
  shared by all panels); express the Mecotronic panel's polarity in DT instead.

rk3588-blueberry-r58-hd3-linux.dts: flip both DSI panels' reset-gpios to
GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH, reproducing the vendor reset sequence now that panel-simple
is back to upstream (paired change - must land with the revert above).

(cherry picked from commit 7535994)
dw_dp_default_modes[] listed the 720x480@60Hz 4:3 mode twice (identical
DRM_MODE timings and aspect ratio). Remove the trailing duplicate; the table
now has one entry per mode.

Signed-off-by: Igor Pecovnik <igor@armbian.com>
(cherry picked from commit 18c2a13)
Cosmetic only, no functional change:

  - two DT reset-gpios lines carried a trailing space and a doubled space
    after the '='
  - the split_mode branch in dw_hdmi_qp-rockchip.c ended on a whitespace-only
    line
  - the fixed-mode table in dw-dp.c was introduced by a "//fox.luo@2024.03.20
    set fixed resolution" marker, replaced with a comment that says what the
    table is for, and its first entry was space-indented in a tab-indented file

git diff --check is clean afterwards and the compiled output is unchanged.
