- The Frame Interval Monitor could be exported to v4l2-core for
|
general use.
|
|
- The CSI subdevice parses its nearest upstream neighbor's device-tree
|
bus config in order to setup the CSI. Laurent Pinchart argues that
|
instead the CSI subdev should call its neighbor's g_mbus_config op
|
(which should be propagated if necessary) to get this info. However
|
Hans Verkuil is planning to remove the g_mbus_config op. For now this
|
driver uses the parsed DT bus config method until this issue is
|
resolved.
|
|
2020-06: g_mbus has been removed in favour of the get_mbus_config pad
|
operation which should be used to avoid parsing the remote endpoint
|
configuration.
|
|
- This media driver supports inheriting V4L2 controls to the
|
video capture devices, from the subdevices in the capture device's
|
pipeline. The controls for each capture device are updated in the
|
link_notify callback when the pipeline is modified. It should be
|
decided whether this feature is useful enough to make it generally
|
available by exporting to v4l2-core.
|
|
- i.MX7: all of the above, since it uses the imx media core
|
|
- i.MX7: use Frame Interval Monitor
|
|
- i.MX7: runtime testing with parallel sensor, links setup and streaming
|
|
- i.MX7: runtime testing with different formats, for the time only 10-bit bayer
|
is tested
