The Xilinx CSI2 Rx subsystem has the 3 blocks - 1 - Xilinx CSI2 Rx controller 2 - Xilinx DPHY in Rx mode (whose register interface may be disabled/fixed configuration to reduce logic gate count). 3 - Xilinx I2C controller (used as CCI - camera control interface) The virtual channel filtering is a property of the CSI2 Rx controller. This was present in v1 as I wanted the IP configuration to be available for debug. This has been removed in v2 as it is not really used in the driver. > > > > > > + > > > > +- xlnx,csi-pxl-format: This denotes the CSI Data type selected in hw > design. > > > > + Packets other than this data type (except for RAW8 and User defined > data > > > > + types) will be filtered out.
