VC4 DSI0 DSI1 MODULE(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– VC4 DSI0/DSI1 module πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the module(9) page from the Kernel API Manual β€” it’s giving kernel graphics realness and I’m obsessed. ✨

So like, BCM2835 lowkey contains two DSI modules: DSI0 and DSI1. DSI0 is a single-lane DSI controller, while DSI1 is a more modern 4-lane DSI controller. The way they’re built different fr fr. πŸ’…

Most Raspberry Pi boards expose DSI1 as their "DISPLAY" connector, while the compute module brings both DSI0 and DSI1 out. iykyk πŸŽ€

This driver has been tested for DSI1 video-mode display only currently, with most of the information necessary for DSI0 hopefully present. Not me hoping the DSI0 info is all there πŸ™ˆ β€” that’s literally what the page says.
