Hi, 

This is my work-in-progress implementation of DisplayPort. Currently works on a Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA on a Digilent Nexys Video Development Board, and the Spartan 6 LX45T on the Nomato Labs Opsis board. Hopefully it will soon work on others.

Status
======
Implements a 800x600 display over a one, two or four 2.70Gb/s lanes (depending on actual board's design). It also can display 3840x2160@30Hz YCC 422 over a two-channel interface. There is also a test source to display colourbars over 800x600.

Low-level transceiver blocks are supplied for Artix-7 and Spartan-6 LXT FPGAs. These will need to be revised to work with your particular FPGA board's layout.

Thanks
======
Greg Overkamp for his help with debugging streams
Tim Ansell for offering a Spartan 6 board with a DisplayPort interface.

TODO
====
- Support 1.62Gb/s link speeds
- Enhance FSM to correctly handle voltage and pre-emphasis change requests.
- Make Hot Plug work properly - currently just queries EDID registers every second as a proxy for HPD
- Make a sensible video interface - video clock does not need to be locked to pixel clock (yay!)
- Audio / Secondary data packet support
- The Spartan 6 Transceiver blocks could be tidied up - eg power down unused parts
- Get H/W support for 8b/10b implemented on Artix-7 - DONE
- Get H/W support for 8b/10b implemented on Spartan-6
- Remove debugging stubs
- Add 4k60 sample and 4k30 444 sample streams
- Add support for at least one Kintex-7 board
- Optimize resource usage by collapsing some of the pipeline stages - DONE
- Optimize resource usage by using only one scrambler LFSR and using that for all channels - DONE
- Put in timing exceptions to get a clean timing report

- All active channels transmit K symbols in the same cycle (excluding 2 cycle skew at end of pipeline) so could share a common K signal, reducing 72 bits down to 65 for most of the pipeline.

Usage prior to optimisations (as a note for later comparison)
