1Amlogic Meson Display Controller
2================================
3
4The Amlogic Meson Display controller is composed of several components
5that are going to be documented below:

19VIU: Video Input Unit
20---------------------
21
22The Video Input Unit is in charge of the pixel scanout from the DDR memory.
23It fetches the frames addresses, stride and parameters from the "Canvas" memory.
24This part is also in charge of the CSC (Colorspace Conversion).
25It can handle 2 OSD Planes and 2 Video Planes.
26
27VPP: Video Post Processing
28--------------------------
29
30The Video Post Processing is in charge of the scaling and blending of the
31various planes into a single pixel stream.
32There is a special "pre-blending" used by the video planes with a dedicated
33scaler and a "post-blending" to merge with the OSD Planes.
34The OSD planes also have a dedicated scaler for one of the OSD.
35
36VENC: Video Encoders
37--------------------
38
39The VENC is composed of the multiple pixel encoders :
40 - ENCI : Interlace Video encoder for CVBS and Interlace HDMI
41 - ENCP : Progressive Video Encoder for HDMI
42 - ENCL : LCD LVDS Encoder
43The VENC Unit gets a Pixel Clocks (VCLK) from a dedicated HDMI PLL and clock
44tree and provides the scanout clock to the VPP and VIU.
45The ENCI is connected to a single VDAC for Composite Output.
46The ENCI and ENCP are connected to an on-chip HDMI Transceiver.

48Device Tree Bindings:
49---------------------
50
51VPU: Video Processing Unit
52--------------------------
53
54Required properties:
55- compatible: value should be different for each SoC family as :
56 - GXBB (S905) : "amlogic,meson-gxbb-vpu"
57 - GXL (S905X, S905D) : "amlogic,meson-gxl-vpu"
58 - GXM (S912) : "amlogic,meson-gxm-vpu"
59 followed by the common "amlogic,meson-gx-vpu"
60- reg: base address and size of he following memory-mapped regions :
61 - vpu
62 - hhi
63 - dmc
64- reg-names: should contain the names of the previous memory regions
65- interrupts: should contain the VENC Vsync interrupt number
66
67Required nodes:
68
69The connections to the VPU output video ports are modeled using the OF graph
70bindings specified in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/graph.txt.
71
72The following table lists for each supported model the port number
73corresponding to each VPU output.
74
75 Port 0 Port 1
76-----------------------------------------
77 S905 (GXBB) CVBS VDAC HDMI-TX
78 S905X (GXL) CVBS VDAC HDMI-TX
79 S905D (GXL) CVBS VDAC HDMI-TX
80 S912 (GXM) CVBS VDAC HDMI-TX
