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 5.16 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 7 patches:
- 1/7 and 2/7 introduce the new formats needed for the unicam driver
- 3/7 introduces dt-bindings documentation and MAINTAINERS entry
I have tentatively assigned maintainership, is this fine ?
- 4/7 adds the driver support in media/platform
- 5/7 introduces the csi nodes in the bcm2711 file, in a disabled state
- 6/7 modifies imx219 driver to make it use the multiplexed streams API
- 7/7 is the imx219 dtsi file tested on my RPi 4b with the mainline dtb
and not the downstream dtb anymore.
All those patches are in my tree [4].
Patch 4/7 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.
This series in 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${media} -l "'imx219 10-0010':0->'unicam-subdev':0 [1]"
media-ctl -d${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 10-0010':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${media} -v -V "'imx219 10-0010':0/1 [fmt:METADATA_8/16384x1
field:none]" media-ctl -d${media} -p ```
Be sure to configure the routes before setting the format, as s_routing
resets the default format.
Then a frame can be capture with yavta:
`yavta --capture=1 /dev/video0 -F/tmp/test-#.bin`
Side note:
My tree [4] also includes a backport for the unicam-isp drivers, it is
then possible, and it has been successfully tested, to use libcamera and
qcam to display the camera output.
