There is already no-hpd property.

It's the property of the panel, not bridge. Unless you want to say that
bridge physically does not have HPD? Does it follow the standard in such
case?

MHDP does have hpd. But the mhdp driver should handle the cases when the
hpd pin of bridge is not connected to that of the DP-connector. This is 
to add support for that. (optional property)

This is about bindings, not driver. Your driver can still handle this as
it wishes.

Which is indicated by panel no-hpd, right? Or you mean now that HPD
physically cannot go to panel because it is cut on the bridge side? But
isn't this the same case (from hardware/bindings point, not driver) as
panel would not have HPD?


Best regards,
Krzysztof

Actually no panel is involved in this. For TI SoC J721S2, the data 
pipeline involves the bridge whose endpoint is directly the DP connector 
with compatible 'dp-connector'. And in the binding dp-connector.yaml, 
there isn't any 'no-hpd' property for this indication.

Does this clarifies the issue? Or did I misinterpret your comment?

Yes, then you only need to narrow which hardware does not have HPD
hooked up. Or at least clarify that it is not about driver having or not
having HPD control...

Okay. I will edit the commit message in v2. (after further review of the 
driver changes for this series)

I will mention that the mhdp bridge can work without its HPD pin hooked
up to the connector, but the current bridge driver throws an error when
hpd line is not connected to the connector. For such cases, using this 
optional property, we can bypass the hpd detection and instead use the 
auxiliary channels connected to the DP connector to confirm the connection.

Thanks,
