17:48 <minute> has anyone figured out dual display (MIPI-DSI + HDMI) on A311D yet?

18:41 <narmstrong> Nobody is working on it………….

19:14 <minute> narmstrong: i wonder if i could give it a shot, but is there any idea what's missing for it, or are there unknowns that need to be reverse engineerd?

19:15 <minute> or could someone do it as a paid project perhaps/

19:17 <narmstrong> minute: basically everything about dual display is unknown, so someone must take the vendor code and understand what's possible (are planes shared ? are scaler shared ?) and try to add support for it in the driver, the good news is that it won't affect the encoder/bridges (hdmi/dsi code) only the code before (crtc, planes)

21:00 <minute> narmstrong: ah cool. i can dig in the vendor code a bit.

21:14 <f_> It hasn't been that much of an issue on set-top boxes anyway (they usually only have one HDMI port and perhaps one port for composite/AV and most people connect either one or the other)

21:15 <f_> but I guess the reform has an HDMI port, am I right?

21:16 <f_> Amlogic hiding u-boot and linux code is disappointing

21:17 <f_> but not really an issue because of sane vendors which throw source code at github

21:18 <minute> f_: yep, DSI goes to the internal display via an eDP converter and there's also an external HDMI port.

21:18 <f_> Ack

21:19 <f_> so yeah dual display is very much desirable I guess

21:22 <f_> Oh nice, it has got most/all of amlogic's git history :D

21:23 <f_> so I'll clone that u-boot repo too

21:25 <f_> Looking at ACS...

21:27 <f_> Oh, I then remember that they changed their entire acs stuff

21:27 <f_> Not the same structs

21:28 <f_> but I don't think it'll be a big issue
