My guess so far is that there's a FIFO somewhere in the SENINF, with the pixel bus clocked by the CSI-2 clock before the FIFO, and by the "Sensor master clock" after the FIFO. Is that right ? If so, the simplest approach would be to use the link frequency to compute the pixel clock before the FIFO, and make sure that the sensor master clock will be larger than or equal to that. A better approach from a power consumption point of view would be to consider horizontal blanking. The FIFO can fill faster than it gets emptied during the active portion of the line and then drain during blanking. This allows for a slower clock on the output side. You will need to pick an output clock frequency that - on average is larger than the number of active pixels per line divided by the line duration ; and - ensures the FIFO never overflows during the active portion of the line, for cases where the line length is larger than the FIFO size. > > > > > > /* multiplier is usually bits per pixel, divider is usually num of lanes */ > > > > > > link_frequency = v4l2_get_link_freq(cam_subdev->ctrl_handler, multiplier, divider); > > > > > > pixel_clock = v4l2_ctrl_g_ctrl_int64(ctl); > > > > > > > > > > How to know the sensor clock given link_frequency and pixel_clock? > > > > > Can you point me to drivers doing something similar? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > ....now you know what the sensor wants, set the seninf sensor clock accordingly. > > > > > > > > > > > > Cheers > > > > > > Angelo > > > > > > > > > > > [...] -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
