Ok, I think here it's were I disconnect.

I don't think you should care about the -current- format on the
subdev, as once you move to MC the ISC formats should be enumerated
regardless of the how the remote subdev is configured. Rather, you
should consider if IS_RAW(f->mbus_code) and from there enumerate the
output formats you can generate from raw bayer (in addition to the
ones that can be produced by dumping the sensor produced formats)

I think our disconnection comes from the way the supported formats are
defined in ISC and I think their definition could be reworkd to
simplify the format selection logic.

The driver defines three lists of formats:

- isc->controller_formats

       static const struct isc_format sama7g5_controller_formats[] = {
	{
		.fourcc		= V4L2_PIX_FMT_ARGB444,
	},
	{
		.fourcc		= V4L2_PIX_FMT_ARGB555,
	},
        ...

        };

 These are listed with the output fourcc only, and if I get
 try_configure_pipeline() right, they can be generated from any Bayer
 RAW format. Is this right ?

- isc->formats_list

        static struct isc_format sama7g5_formats_list[] = {
                {
                        .fourcc		= V4L2_PIX_FMT_SBGGR8,
                        .mbus_code	= MEDIA_BUS_FMT_SBGGR8_1X8,
                        .pfe_cfg0_bps	= ISC_PFE_CFG0_BPS_EIGHT,
                        .cfa_baycfg	= ISC_BAY_CFG_BGBG,
                },
                {
                        .fourcc		= V4L2_PIX_FMT_SGBRG8,
                        .mbus_code	= MEDIA_BUS_FMT_SGBRG8_1X8,
                        .pfe_cfg0_bps	= ISC_PFE_CFG0_BPS_EIGHT,
                        .cfa_baycfg	= ISC_BAY_CFG_GBGB,
                },

         ...

         };

  These are formats the ISC can output by dumping the sensor output,
  hence they require a specific format to be output from the sensor

- isc->user_formats

        static int isc_formats_init() {

                ...

                fmt = &isc->formats_list[0];
                for (i = 0, j = 0; i < list_size; i++) {
                        if (fmt->sd_support)
                                isc->user_formats[j++] = fmt;
                        fmt++;
                }

      }

  this list is obtained at runtime by restricting the formats_list to
  what the sensor can actually output. I think these, if you move to
  MC should be removed but I'm not 100% sure it is possible with the
  current implementation of set_fmt().

Do you think controller_formats and formats_list should be unified ?

If my understanding that all controller_formats can be generated from
RAW Bayer formats you could model struct isc_format as

        struct isc_format {
                u32	fourcc;
                bool    processed;
                u32     mbus_codes
                u32	cfa_baycfg;
                u32	pfe_cfg0_bps;
        };

and have in example:

	{
		.fourcc		= V4L2_PIX_FMT_ARGB444,
                .processed      = true,
                .mbus_codes     = nullptr,
                ....
	},
        {
                .fourcc		= V4L2_PIX_FMT_SBGGR8,
                .processed      = false,
                .mbus_codes	= { MEDIA_BUS_FMT_SBGGR8_1X8 }
                .pfe_cfg0_bps	= ISC_PFE_CFG0_BPS_EIGHT,
                .cfa_baycfg	= ISC_BAY_CFG_BGBG,
        },

and when enumerating and configuring formats check that

        if (isc_format[i].processed &&
            (f->mbus_code && IS_RAW(f->mbus)code))

or

        if (!isc_format[i].processed &&
            (f->mbus_code == isc_format[i].mbus_code

if you have other restrictions as in example V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV420
requiring a packed YUV format, you can implement more complex
validations to match processed formats, like you do in try_validate_formats()

Also, and a bit unrelated to enum_fmt, if I got this right
at format configuration time you match the ISC format with
the sensor format. I think this should be moved to .link_validate() op time.

The MC core calls .link_validate when streaming is started on each
entity part of a pipeline, and there you could make sure that the ISC output format can be produced using
the sensor format (and sizes). This will greatly simplify set_fmt() as
there you will have just to make sure the supplied format is in the
list of the ISC supported ones and that's it. If userspace fails to
configure the pipeline correctly (in example by setting a non RAW
Bayer sensor on the format and requesting a RAW Bayer format from ISC,
you will fail at s_stream() time by returning an EPIPE.

Hope all of this makes a bit of sense :)
