[PATCH 0/5] media: Allwinner A10 CSI support

From: Maxime Ripard
Date: Tue Nov 13 2018 - 03:25:02 EST


Hi,

Here is a series introducing the support for the A10 (and SoCs of the same
generation) CMOS Sensor Interface (called CSI, not to be confused with
MIPI-CSI, which isn't support by that IP).

That interface is pretty straightforward, but the driver has a few issues
that I wanted to bring up:

* The only board I've been testing this with has an ov5640 sensor
attached, which doesn't work with the upstream driver. Copying the
Allwinner init sequence works though, and this is how it has been
tested. Testing with a second sensor would allow to see if it's an
issue on the CSI side or the sensor side.
* When starting a capture, the last buffer to capture will fail due to
double buffering being used, and we don't have a next buffer for the
last frame. I'm not sure how to deal with that though. It seems like
some drivers use a scratch buffer in such a case, some don't care, so
I'm not sure which solution should be preferred.
* We don't have support for the ISP at the moment, but this can be added
eventually.

* How to model the CSI module clock isn't really clear to me. It looks
like it goes through the CSI controller and then is muxed to one of the
CSI pin so that it can clock the sensor. I'm not quite sure how to
model it, if it should be a clock, the CSI driver being a clock
provider, or if the sensor should just use the module clock directly.

Here is the v4l2-compliance output:
