But if even the vendor wants to move to MC to allow more use-cases I think we have to acknolege that if you're running mainline on an embedded system you could expect to adjust your setup between kernel updates. The idea to document the media-ctl commands required to setup the pipeline it's helpful, and might help in the interim period until the platform is not supported by libcamera. That said, if Eugen wants to give the flag a try I won't oppose :) > Regards, > > Hans > > > > >> > >> media-ctl -d /dev/media0 --set-v4l2 '"imx219 > >> 1-0010":0[fmt:SRGGB10_1X10/1920x1080]' > >> media-ctl -d /dev/media0 --set-v4l2 > >> '"dw-csi.0":0[fmt:SRGGB10_1X10/1920x1080]' > >> media-ctl -d /dev/media0 --set-v4l2 '"csi2dc":0[fmt:SRGGB10_1X10/1920x1080]' > >> media-ctl -d /dev/media0 --set-v4l2 > >> '"atmel_isc_scaler":0[fmt:SRGGB10_1X10/1920x1080]' > >> > >> Thank you for taking care of this ! > >> > >> Eugen > >> > >>> Regards, > >>> > >>> Hans > >>> > >>>> > >>>> Full series history: > >>>> > >>>> Changes in v10: > >>>> -> split the series into this first fixes part. > >>>> -> moved IO_MC addition from first patch to the second patch on the driver changes > >>>> -> edited commit messages > >>>> -> DT nodes now disabled by default. > >>>> > >>>> Changes in v9: > >>>> -> kernel robot reported isc_link_validate is not static, changed to static. > >>>> > >>>> Changes in v8: > >>>> -> scaler: modified crop bounds to have the exact source size > >>>> > >>>> Changes in v7: > >>>> -> scaler: modified crop bounds to have maximum isc size > >>>> -> format propagation: did small changes as per Jacopo review > >>>> > >>>> > >>>> Changes in v6: > >>>> -> worked a bit on scaler, added try crop and other changes as per Jacopo review > >>>> -> worked on isc-base enum_fmt , reworked as per Jacopo review > >>>> > >>>> Changes in v5: > >>>> -> removed patch that removed the 'stop' variable as it was still required > >>>> -> added two new trivial patches > >>>> -> reworked some parts of the scaler and format propagation after discussions with Jacopo > >>>> > >>>> > >>>> Changes in v4: > >>>> -> as reviewed by Hans, added new patch to remove the 'stop' variable and reworked > >>>> one patch that was using it > >>>> -> as reviewed by Jacopo, reworked some parts of the media controller implementation > >>>> > >>>> > >>>> Changes in v3: > >>>> - change in bindings, small fixes in csi2dc driver and conversion to mc > >>>> for the isc-base. > >>>> - removed some MAINTAINERS patches and used patterns in MAINTAINERS > >>>> > >>>> Changes in v2: > >>>> - integrated many changes suggested by Jacopo in the review of the v1 series. > >>>> - add a few new patches > >>>> > >>>> Eugen Hristev (5): > >>>> media: atmel: atmel-isc: prepare for media controller support > >>>> media: atmel: atmel-isc: implement media controller > >>>> ARM: dts: at91: sama7g5: add nodes for video capture > >>>> ARM: configs: at91: sama7: add xisc and csi2dc > >>>> ARM: multi_v7_defconfig: add atmel video pipeline modules > >>>> > >>>> arch/arm/boot/dts/sama7g5.dtsi | 51 ++ > >>>> arch/arm/configs/multi_v7_defconfig | 3 + > >>>> arch/arm/configs/sama7_defconfig | 2 + > >>>> drivers/media/platform/atmel/Makefile | 2 +- > >>>> drivers/media/platform/atmel/atmel-isc-base.c | 485 +++++++++--------- > >>>> .../media/platform/atmel/atmel-isc-scaler.c | 267 ++++++++++ > >>>> drivers/media/platform/atmel/atmel-isc.h | 50 +- > >>>> .../media/platform/atmel/atmel-sama5d2-isc.c | 34 +- > >>>> .../media/platform/atmel/atmel-sama7g5-isc.c | 32 +- > >>>> 9 files changed, 685 insertions(+), 241 deletions(-) > >>>> create mode 100644 drivers/media/platform/atmel/atmel-isc-scaler.c > >>>> > >>> > >> > > >
