1. The name of the panel must begin with "edp-"、"lvds-" 、"hdmi-" or “dp-”.
And it can be found in "kernel/include/dt-bindings/display/screen-timing/{LCDNAME}.dtsi" like :
lvds_g070vw01: lvds-g070vw01
2. If there is no configuration, you will get default setting :
hdmi-default and dp-default as default setting.

Using envtools in Debian/Android
Using envtools to setup envs in Debian/Android OS is very similar in uboot.
Take “eDP+HDMI”for example :
In uboot | In Debian/Android |
setenv prmry_screen hdmi-default | fw_setenv prmry_screen hdmi-default |
setenv extend_screen edp-1920x1080 | fw_setenv extend_screen edp-1920x1080 |
saveenv | |
reset | reboot |
Note :
The tool "fw_setenv" will save envs automatically in Debian/Android OS, so it isn't necessary to saveen manually.
Check current setting:
root@linaro-alip:~# cat /proc/cmdline
storagemedia=emmc androidboot.storagemedia=emmc androidboot.mode=normal androidboot.verifiedbootstate=orange androidboot.slot_suffix= androidboot.serialno=a2fc4116ad6b2c4f rw rootwait earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0xff180000 swiotlb=1 console=ttyS0,115200 root=PARTUUID=614e0000-0000 rootfstype=ext4 coherent_pool=1m quiet board_info=9 prmry_screen=hdmi-default extend_screen=lvds-g070vw01
