This patch made the display no interrupt from uboot to kernel to Android. The IPU and related hardware display interface will only be initialized once in Uboot, the kernel code will skip the IPU initialization. 1. Description 1) Support HDMI, LVDS and LCD output in UBoot. 2) Support UBoot logo keep from uboot to kernel to Android. 3) For HDMI, both 720P and 1080P mode were supported. 4) For LVDS, 1024x768 and 1080P dual channel panels were supported. 5) The logo file is a 32 bpp bmp file. 2.

Note 1) The logo.bmp file should be 32bpp or 16bpp, and it should be synced with video mode parameters "bpp=xx", and uboot config file mx6q_sabresd.h (#define DISPLAY_BPP xx). 2) The IPU number and DI number are hard coded in kernel file "board-mx6q_sabresd.c". static struct fsl_mxc_hdmi_core_platform_data hdmi_core_data = { .ipu_id = 1, .disp_id = 0, }; static struct fsl_mxc_lcd_platform_data lcdif_data = { .ipu_id = 0, .disp_id = 0, .default_ifmt = IPU_PIX_FMT_RGB565, }; static struct fsl_mxc_ldb_platform_data ldb_data = { .ipu_id = 0, .disp_id = 1, .ext_ref = 1, .mode = LDB_SEP1, .sec_ipu_id = 0, .sec_disp_id = 0, }; 3) The IPU number and DI number are defined by Macro in Uboot file "include\configs\mx6q_sabresd.h" #define IPU_NUM 2 // 1 for IPU1, 2 for IPU2. #define DI_NUM 0 // 0 for DI0, 1 for DI1. 4) The display type used in uboot and kernel must be same, same type, same IPU number, same DI port and same resolution. [2015-06-29 Update]: JB4.2.2_1.1.0_uboot_logo_keep_patch_2015-06-29.zip Fix some LVDS issues for iMX6DL. Also given an example for LVDS0 with DI0.

[2016-05-18 Update]: 0001-Fix-the-split-mode-LVDS-panel-no-TX3-signal-issue.patch An issue was founded, when dual channel 4 lanes LVDS panel was used, in uboot there will be no LVDS TX3 signa on one LVDS port, the attach "0001-Fix-the-split-mode-LVDS-panel-no-TX3-signal-issue.patch" was used to fix this issue, it is based on JB4.3_1.1.1_uboot_logo_keep_patch_2015-09-18.zip, for other BSP, please port it manually. [2016-08-29 Update]: 0001-After-reset-IPU-in-SRC-Control-Register-wait-for-res.patch On some iMX6 chip, after reset the IPU in SRC Control Register, enable IPU at once will cause system hang up, to avoid such issue, software needs wait for IPU reset done by polling the SRC register. The attach "0001-After-reset-IPU-in-SRC-Control-Register-wait-for-res.patch" was used to fix this issue, it is based on JB4.3_1.1.1_uboot_logo_keep_patch_2015-09-18.zip + "0001-Fix-the-split-mode-LVDS-panel-no-TX3-signal-issue.patch", for other BSP, please port it manually. [2017-01-06 Update] Added patch for L4.1.15_GA1.2.0 BSP and Android M6.0.1_GA2.1.0 BSP. Files: L4.1.15_GA1.2.0_uboot_logo_keep_patch_2017-01-06.zip; M6.0.1_2.1.0_uboot_logo_keep_patch_2017-01-06.zip
