Hello !
This patch series adds the BCM2835 CCP2/CSI2 camera interface named
unicam. This driver is already used in the out-of-tree linux-rpi
repository [1], and this work aims to support it in mainline.
The series is based on top of:
- Rebased on top of 5.17-rc1 Tomi Valkeinen's multiplexed stream work, on
his multistream/work branch [2] which has been submitted as v10 at the
time of this writing. The objective is to demonstrate the use of
multiplexed streams on a real world widely used example as well as
supporting unicam mainline.
- The "Add 12bit and 14bit luma-only formats" series [3] is partly
applied (the Y10P format bug) the new formats are now part of this
series.
The series is made of 11 patches:
- 1/11 and 2/11 introduce the new formats needed for the unicam driver
- 3/11 introduces dt-bindings documentation
- 4/11 adds the driver support in media/platform
- 5/11 adds the MAINTAINERS entry
- 6/11 introduces the csi nodes in the bcm2711 file, in a disabled state
- 7/11 to 11/11 modifies imx219 driver to make it use the multiplexed
streams API
All those patches are in my tree [4].
Patch 5/12 comes from the linux-rpi work [1] with substantial
modifications:
- Removed the non-mc API which is deprecated, and not needed upstream
- Moved from one video node with two source pads (image and embedded) to
two video nodes
- Added a subdev between the sensor and the video nodes to properly
route the streams
- Added support for multiplexed streams API
In order to test it, one will need a RPi board and the camv2 (imx219)
sensor. An updated v4l-utils is also needed [5] to have support for
multiplexed streams.
v4l2-compliance passes on both video devices, without streaming testing
though with one exception: as the colorspace support is removed in v3,
we now have:
test VIDIOC_G_FMT: OK
fail: v4l2-test-formats.cpp(363): colorspace >= 0xff
fail: v4l2-test-formats.cpp(465): testColorspace(!node->is_io_mc,
pix.pixelformat, pix.colorspace, pix.ycbcr_enc, pix.quantization)
test VIDIOC_TRY_FMT: FAIL
fail: v4l2-test-formats.cpp(363): colorspace >= 0xff
fail: v4l2-test-formats.cpp(465): testColorspace(!node->is_io_mc,
pix.pixelformat, pix.colorspace, pix.ycbcr_enc, pix.quantization)
test VIDIOC_S_FMT: FAIL
This series since its v2 does integrate the device tree nodes into the
upstream BCM2835 or BCM2711 device tree support.
In order to properly configure the media pipeline, it is needed to call
the usual ioctls, and configure routing in order to send the embedded
data from the sensor to the "unicam-embedded" device node :
```
media=0
media-ctl -d${media} -l "'imx219 2-0010':0->'unicam-subdev':0 [1]"
media-ctl -d${media} -l "'unicam-subdev':1->'unicam-image':0 [1]"
media-ctl -d${media} -v -R "'unicam-subdev' [0/0->1/0[1],0/1->2/0[1]]"
media-ctl -d${media} -V "'imx219 2-0010':0/0 [fmt:SRGGB10_1X10/3280x2464 field:none]"
v4l2-ctl -d0 --set-fmt-video width=3280,height=2464,pixelformat='pRAA',field=none
media-ctl -d${media} -v -V "'imx219 2-0010':0/1 [fmt:METADATA_8/16384x1 field:none]"
media-ctl -d${media} -p
```
Be sure to configure the routes before setting the format, as s_routing
resets the default format.
The media-ctl topology is:
```
pi at raspberrypi:~ $ media-ctl -d${media} -p

```
Then a frame can be capture with yavta:
`yavta --capture=1 /dev/video0 -F/tmp/test-#.bin`
In v3, capture on the metadata node (/dev/video1 in my case) can't be
started if capture on image node (/dev/video0) is not already started.
This can be tested using yavta, letting it capture frames indefinitely
and start another yavta instance on the /dev/video1 node.
