The device tree binding for sun4i-drm says:
For all connections between components up to the TCONs in the display
pipeline, when there are multiple components of the same type at the
same depth, the local endpoint ID must be the same as the remote
component's index. For example, if the remote endpoint is Frontend 1,
then the local endpoint ID must be 1.
We should be able to get the TCON's ID directly from any of the remote
endpoints from its input port. With the ID, we can then go through the
list of registered engines and find a matching one by ID.
However the A31 device tree is incorrect. We assumed that there were no
cross pipeline connections between the backends and TCONs. As a result,
in all the endpoints between the backends and TCONs of the second
display pipeline, the endpoint IDs were incorrectly set to 0, when in
fact they should've been set to 1.
To maintain compatibility with this incorrect device tree, we first
check if the TCON's input port has 1 or many endpoints. If there are
more than 1, then it is likely a fixed version, and we can proceed
with the new method. If there is only 1 endpoint, then it is possibly
an incorrect version, or it could be the SoC only has one pipeline.
In either case we fall back to using the old method of traversing
the input connections to find a matching engine, and then get its
ID.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
