From: Guennadi Liakhovetski <g.liakhovetski@xxxxxx> This patch adds a document describing common OF bindings for video capture, output and video processing devices. It is currently mainly focused on video capture devices, with data interfaces defined in standards like ITU-R BT.656 or MIPI CSI-2. It also documents a method of describing data links between devices. Signed-off-by: Guennadi Liakhovetski <g.liakhovetski@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sylwester Nawrocki <s.nawrocki@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- Hi, This is an updated version of patch [1]. My changes include resolving issues pointed out during review, i.e.: - renaming 'link' node to 'endpoint, - renaming 'remote' phandle to 'remote-endpoint', - file v4l2.txt renamed to video-interfaces.txt, - removed references to V4L2, - added short description of the example DT snippet and additionally: - added "Required properties' paragraph, - updated description of 'data-lanes' property, - renamed all erroneous occurrences of 'data-width' to 'bus-width', - added 'bus-width' property description, - modified description of hsync-active, vsync-active properties, - added a little paragraph further explaining that each endpoint node has properties determining configuration of its corresponding device. [1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1514381/ I'm still unsure about the first sentence, as these bindings can be used for describing SoC internal connections between modules as well. I was considering adding something like: "This document describes common bindings for video capture, processing and output devices using data buses defined in standards like ITU-R BT.656, MIPI CSI-2,..." before the "General concept" paragraph. And maybe Documentation/devicetree/bindings/video/ would a better place for this video-interfaces.txt file ?

External devices are represented as child nodes of their respective +bus controller nodes, e.g. I2C. + +Data interfaces on all video devices are described by their child 'port' nodes. +Configuration of a port depends on other devices participating in the data +transfer and is described by 'endpoint' subnodes. + +dev { + #address-cells = <1>; + #size-cells = <0>; + port@0 { + endpoint@0 { ... }; + endpoint@1 { ... }; + }; + port@1 { ... }; +}; + +If a port can be configured to work with more than one other device on the same +bus, an 'endpoint' child node must be provided for each of them. If more than +one port is present in a device node or there is more than one endpoint at a +port, a common scheme, using '#address-cells', '#size-cells' and 'reg' properties +is used. + +Two 'endpoint' nodes are linked with each other through their 'remote-endpoint' +phandles. An endpoint subnode of a device contains all properties needed for +configuration of this device for data exchange with the other device. In most +cases properties at the peer 'endpoint' nodes will be identical, however +they might need to be different when there are any signal modifications on the +bus between two devices, e.g. there are logic signal inverters on the lines. + +Required properties +------------------- + +If there is more that one 'port' or more than one 'endpoint' node following +properties are required in relevant parent node: + +- #address-cells : number of cells required to define port number, should be 1. +- #size-cells : should be zero. + +Optional endpoint properties +---------------------------- + +- remote-endpoint : phandle to an 'endpoint' subnode of the other device node. +- slave-mode : a boolean property, run the link in slave mode. Default is master + mode. +- bus-width : the number of data lines, valid for parallel buses. +- data-shift: on parallel data busses, if bus-width is used to specify the + number of data lines, data-shift can be used to specify which data lines are + used, e.g. "bus-width=<10>; data-shift=<2>;" means, that lines 9:2 are used. +- hsync-active : active state of HSYNC signal, 0/1 for LOW/HIGH respectively. +- vsync-active : active state of VSYNC signal, 0/1 for LOW/HIGH respectively. + Note, that if HSYNC and VSYNC polarities are not specified, embedded + synchronization may be required, where supported. +- data-active : similar to HSYNC and VSYNC, specifies data line polarity. +- field-even-active: field signal level during the even field data transmission. +- pclk-sample : rising (1) or falling (0) edge to sample the pixel clock signal. +- data-lanes : an array of physical data lane indexes. Position of an entry + determines logical lane number, while the value of an entry indicates physical + lane, e.g. for 2-lane MIPI CSI-2 bus we could have "data-lanes = <1>, <2>;", + assuming the clock lane is on hardware lane 0. This property is valid for + serial buses only (e.g. MIPI CSI-2). +- clock-lanes : a number of physical lane used as a clock lane. +- clock-noncontinuous : a boolean property to allow MIPI CSI-2 non-continuous + clock mode. + +Example +------- + +The below example snippet describes two data pipelines. ov772x and imx074 are +camera sensors with parallel and serial (MIPI CSI-2) video bus respectively. +Both sensors are on I2C control bus corresponding to i2c0 controller node. +ov772x sensor is linked directly to the ceu0 video host interface. imx074 is +linked to ceu0 through MIPI CSI-2 receiver (csi2). ceu0 has a (single) DMA +engine writing captured data to memory. ceu0 node has single 'port' node which +indicates at any time only one of following data pipeline can be active: +ov772x -> ceu0 or imx074 -> csi2 -> ceu0. + + ceu0: ceu@0xfe910000 { + compatible = "renesas,sh-mobile-ceu"; + reg = <0xfe910000 0xa0>; + interrupts = <0x880>; + + mclk: master_clock { + compatible = "renesas,ceu-clock"; + #clock-cells = <1>; + clock-frequency = <50000000>; /* Max clock frequency */ + clock-output-names = "mclk"; + }; + + port { + #address-cells = <1>; + #size-cells = <0>; + + ceu0_1: endpoint@1 { + reg = <1>; /* Local endpoint # */ + remote = <&ov772x_1_1>; /* Remote phandle */ + bus-width = <8>; /* Used data lines */ + data-shift = <0>; /* Lines 7:0 are used */ + + /* If hsync-active/vsync-active are missing, + embedded bt.605 sync is used */ + hsync-active = <1>; /* Active high */ + vsync-active = <1>; /* Active high */ + data-active = <1>; /* Active high */ + pclk-sample = <1>; /* Rising */ + }; + + ceu0_0: endpoint@0 { + reg = <0>; + remote = <&csi2_2>; + immutable; + }; + }; + }; + + i2c0: i2c@0xfff20000 { + ... + ov772x_1: camera@0x21 { + compatible = "omnivision,ov772x"; + reg = <0x21>; + vddio-supply = <®ulator1>; + vddcore-supply = <®ulator2>; + + clock-frequency = <20000000>; + clocks = <&mclk 0>; + clock-names = "xclk"; + + port { + /* With 1 endpoint per port no need in addresses. */ + ov772x_1_1: endpoint { + bus-width = <8>; + remote-endpoint = <&ceu0_1>; + hsync-active = <1>; + vsync-active = <0>; /* Who came up with an + inverter here ?... */ + data-active = <1>; + pclk-sample = <1>; + }; + }; + }; + + imx074: camera@0x1a { + compatible = "sony,imx074"; + reg = <0x1a>; + vddio-supply = <®ulator1>; + vddcore-supply = <®ulator2>; + + clock-frequency = <30000000>; /* Shared clock with ov772x_1 */ + clocks = <&mclk 0>; + clock-names = "sysclk"; /* Assuming this is the + name in the datasheet */ + port { + imx074_1: endpoint { + clock-lanes = <0>; + data-lanes = <1>, <2>; + remote-endpoint = <&csi2_1>; + }; + }; + }; + }; + + csi2: csi2@0xffc90000 { + compatible = "renesas,sh-mobile-csi2"; + reg = <0xffc90000 0x1000>; + interrupts = <0x17a0>; + #address-cells = <1>; + #size-cells = <0>; + + port@1 { + compatible = "renesas,csi2c"; /* One of CSI2I and CSI2C. */ + reg = <1>; /* CSI-2 PHY #1 of 2: PHY_S, + PHY_M has port address 0, + is unused. */ + csi2_1: endpoint { + clock-lanes = <0>; + data-lanes = <2>, <1>; + remote-endpoint = <&imx074_1>; + }; + }; + port@2 { + reg = <2>; /* port 2: link to the CEU */ + + csi2_2: endpoint { + immutable; + remote-endpoint = <&ceu0_0>; + }; + }; + }; -- 1.7.4.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
