Provide information about how to bind internal iMX6Q/DL HDMI DDC I2C
master controller. The property is set as optional one, because iMX6
HDMI DDC bus may be represented by one of general purpose I2C busses
found on SoC.

knowing in advance that I2C framework lacks a graceful support of non
fully compliant I2C devices, do you have any objections to the proposed
iMX HDMI DTS change?

I'm not sure about this. Have you seen "drm: Decouple EDID parsing from
I2C adapter"? I feel like in the absence of a ddc-i2c-bus property the
imx-hdmi/dw-hdmi driver should try to use the internal HDMI DDC I2C
master controller, bypassing the I2C framework altogether.

My idea is exactly not to bypass the I2C framework, briefly the
rationale is that
* it allows to reuse I2C UAPI/tools naturally applied to the internal
iMX HDMI DDC bus,
* it allows to use iMX HDMI DDC bus as an additional feature-limited I2C
bus on SoC (who knows, I absolutely won't be surprised, if anyone needs
it on practice),
* if an HDMI controller supports an external I2C bus, the integration
with HDMI DDC bus driver based on I2C framework is seamless.

However I agree that the selected approach may look odd, the question is
if the oddness comes from the technical side or from the fact that
nobody has done it before this way.

I'm open to any critique, if the proposal of creating an I2C bus from
HDMI DDC bus is lame, then I suppose the shared iMX HDMI DDC bus driver
should be converted to something formless and internally used by
imx-hdmi. The negative side-effects of such a change from my point of
view are
* more or less natural modularity is lost,
* a number of I2C framework API/functions should be copy-pasted to the
updated HDMI DDC bus driver to support a subset of I2C read/write
transactions.

If Wolfram is happy to accomodate such feature limited, 'I2C master'
devices in i2c/drivers/busses in principle, I won't disagree.

But then it should be abstracted properly. The dw-hdmi-tx core on i.MX6
has the DDC I2C master register space at 0x7e00 - 0x7e12. What are the
offsets on the Rockchip version? If the "simple-bus" compatible is to be
set on the hdmi driver, the ddc driver should do its own register
access, and therefore needs a reg property. I suspect for the ddc-i2cm
we should get away with a common compatible like "snps,dw-hdmi-i2c".

	hdmi: hdmi@120000 {
		/* ... */
		compatible = "fsl,imx6q-hdmi", "snps,dw-hdmi";
		ddc-i2c-bus = <&hdmi_ddc>;

		hdmi_ddc: i2c@127e00 {
			compatible = "snps,dw-hdmi-i2c";
			reg = <0x1207e00 0x13>
		};

		/* could add phy-i2cm, cec, ... here */
	};

Also there's an i2c bus for communication with the phy at 0x3020 -
0x3032, should that be handled in a similar way, then?

Do we need to make the hdmi driver a proper interrupt controller? At
least the two i2c masters have two interrupts each, "done" and "error".

Hi Vladimir:

  I am working on convert imx-hdmi to dw_hdmi now:
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/12/1/190
  I also have a plan to use  the internal HDMI I2C master under the I2c 
framework,
and I also have a patch to do this work. So glad to see your work.
  Please also Cc me<and.yan@rock-chips.com> and Zubair.Kakakhel@imgtec.com,
maybe Zubair also have interests on your future patch.

    Rockchip RK3288 has the same DDC I2C master and phy i2c master
    register offset as imx hdmi.

     what my suggestion is: make the ddc-i2c-bus property optional, if 
the dw_hdmi driver
    can't found the ddc-i2c-bus node, then use the internal i2cm:
        ddc_node = of_parse_phandle(np, "ddc-i2c-bus", 0);
         if (ddc_node) {
                 hdmi->ddc = of_find_i2c_adapter_by_node(ddc_node);
                 of_node_put(ddc_node);
                 if (!hdmi->ddc) {
                         dev_dbg(hdmi->dev, "failed to read ddc node\n");
                         return -EPROBE_DEFER;
                 }

         } else {
                 hdmi->ddc = dw_hdmi_ddc_adapter_register(hdmi).
         }

         and we can have a file put with dw_hdmi.c in a same dir, which
        implement  standard i2c adapter interface .
       I found that other hdmi platform such as msm(/msm/hdmi/hdmi_i2c.c) ,
       radeon(radeon_i2c.c) also do like this

Good to know, I was not aware of it. Definitely it should be supported
as well.

Thank you for references.

I see that msm and a number of other DRM device drivers (radeon,
nouveau, i915, gma500) quite resemble the situation, now I'm convinced
that the same should be done for iMX6/RK3288 HDMI driver. In background
I'll try to review all out of i2c/busses/* registered i2c adapters, may
be there is something in common between all of them.

I'll prepare the change of the HDMI DDC support for review (will be able
to test it only on iMX6), Wolfram, please skip from your consideration
the published version of the i2c bus driver.

Wolfram, by the way is I2C_CLASS_DDC adapter class in operational use or
deprecated?

Yes, thank you all. Really great to see this consolidation effort going
on!

Yay, cool! Thanks!

Okay, will do.

Class based instantiation is NOT deprecated and will stay as far as I
can see. Many platform bus drivers did set the class flag needlessly, so
we had a deprecation mechanism to get rid of those flags in drivers in
order to speed up boot time.
