Thank you for your thoughts.

Would this be a "may" or a "should"? As in,
"If SUBDEV_S_FMT is called with field == ANY, the driver may/should set
field to the previously configured interlacing field order".

What would be the correct place to document this behaviour?
Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/vidioc-subdev-g-fmt.rst?

Ok, good. Ignoring the transfer function / YCbCr encoding / quantization
range fields when colorspace is DEFAULT would simplify this part to:

	if (sdformat->format.colorspace == V4L2_COLORSPACE_DEFAULT) {
		sdformat->format.colorspace = fmt->colorspace;
		sdformat->format.xfer_func = fmt->xfer_func;
		sdformat->format.ycbcr_enc = fmt->ycbcr_enc;
		sdformat->format.quantization = fmt->quantization;
	}

Is that expectation already written down somewhere? If not, should we
add it to Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/pixfmt-006.rst?

The CSI subdevice can't do colorspace conversion, but exactly the same
applies to the IC subdevices, which can. Also I'd like this information
to be correct, as the /dev/videoX capture device takes its colorspace
information from the CSI source pad.

The problem I wanted to solve here initially was that if the colorspace
information was previously set correctly:

  media-ctl --set-v4l2 "'ipu1_csi0':0[fmt:UYVY8_1X16/1920x1080@1/60 colorspace:rec709 xfer:709 ycbcr:709 quantization:lim-range]"
    ->
	V4L2_COLORSPACE_REC709
	V4L2_XFER_FUNC_709
	V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_709
	V4L2_QUANTIZATION_LIMITED_RANGE

A later media-ctl call to just change the frame interval would overwrite the colorspace information:

  media-ctl --set-v4l2 "'ipu1_csi0':0[fmt:UYVY8_1X16/1920x1080@1/30]"
    ->
	V4L2_COLORSPACE_DEFAULT
	V4L2_XFER_FUNC_DEFAULT
	V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_DEFAULT
	V4L2_QUANTIZATION_DEFAULT

> I would just drop the whole 'else' here.

That would allow to set the actual colorspace information reported by
SUBDEV_G_FMT on both sink and source pads (and by extension, the
colorspace information reported by G_FMT on /dev/videoX) to
V4L2_{XFER_FUNC,YCBCR_ENC,QUANTIZATION}_DEFAULT.

  media-ctl --set-v4l2 "'ipu1_csi0':0[fmt:UYVY8_1X16/1920x1080 colorspace:rec709]"
    ->
	V4L2_COLORSPACE_REC709
	V4L2_XFER_FUNC_DEFAULT
	V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_DEFAULT
	V4L2_QUANTIZATION_DEFAULT

I suppose that is acceptable as given the colorspace, the other DEFAULT
values have a unique meaning, but wouldn't it be nicer to show userspace
what these default inputs actually map to?

csi_set_fmt on the sink pad is the function that actually sets fmt in
the first place. If we always copy colorspace information from fmt, it
can't be set to the correct value at all.
