Here's a driver I have been working on:
drm/panel: Add MIPI DBI compatible SPI driver https://lore.kernel.org/dri-devel/20220125175700.37408-1-noralf@tronnes.org/
It should replace the SPI part of these fbtft drivers if accepted:
$ grep -lr MIPI_DCS drivers/staging/fbtft/ | grep -v "-" | uniq | sort drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_hx8340bn.c drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_hx8353d.c drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_hx8357d.c drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_ili9163.c drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_ili9340.c drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_ili9341.c drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_ili9481.c drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_ili9486.c drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_s6d02a1.c drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_st7735r.c drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_st7789v.c drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_tinylcd.c
There's no support for the parallel interface on these controllers in drm. Support could be added to drivers/gpu/drm/drm_mipi_dbi.c.
Here's a status report I wrote 2 years ago:
fbtft: 5 years in staging https://lore.kernel.org/dri-devel/a6cef26c-0f4b-47f0-d249-71f53891526b@tronnes.org/
Noralf.
