The tree I tried now is this one: https://source.puri.sm/martin.kepplinger/linux-next/-/commits/5.8-rc7/librem5___csi_ml1 A tree that includes NXP's csi_bridge and mipi-csi drivers (and camera driver) on the other hand works, and I have one based on v5.8-rcX too: https://source.puri.sm/martin.kepplinger/linux-next/-/commits/5.8-rc7/librem5___csi_nxp Since I want to look into a different camera driver, I might use that nxp-drivers tree to work on that, but our goal is obviously to use what is already in staging and should work (the csi bridge driver at least). In case you know more about the v4l2 details that don't match over there, please have a look. thanks a lot in advance, martin _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
