Today i had a little bit time and manage to get the commands working.
After running the yavta command, the kernel put the following:
[ 405.908674] cma: cma_alloc: linux,cma: alloc failed, req-size: 2484
pages, ret: -12
[ 405.908695] unicam fe801000.csi: dma alloc of size 10174464 failed
As per default the CMA size with mainline DTB is 64 MB. After that i
increase the value to 256 MB and the issue disappeared. Maybe this is
something which could be integrated into the overlay. But at least a
note about this in the cover letter of the next version of this series
would be nice.
Best regards
