Here it is my reasoning: In the documentation of CHS bit of Vn_DMR2 register [1] the following is specified: "When using ITU-R BT.601, BT.709, BT.1358 interface, and the VIn_CLKENB pin is unused, the CHS bit must be set to 1." And setting the CHS bit to 1: "HSYNC signal (VIn_HSYNC#) input from the pin is internally used as the clock enable signal" So, if 'data-active' property is not specified I assume CLCKENB is not used, and set the CHS bit. What if we are using BT656 and there is no HSYNC? Then specifying 'data-active' becomes mandatory, as otherwise we set the CHS bit and wait for HSYNC pin transitions that won't happen. This is probably wrong, as in the Koelsch case, there is no guarantee that CLKENB is connected, and what I should have done is probably set the CHS bit only when running on V4L2_MBUS_PARALLEL, and leave CHS (and CES, if 'data-active' is not specified) untouched, as we're doing today when running on V4L2_MBUS_BT656. Does this work better in your opinion? This also makes patch [6/6] (where I was adding 'data-active' to Gen-2 boards) not required.
