Even if the transmitter is expected to keep the lanes in this stop state all the time while the subdevice is powered but not streaming, I still have to wait for stop state detection before enabling the transmitter, and only then enable the reciever. I'll remove the prepare_streaming callback in the next version and instead let the subdevices propagate s_stream upstream instead in the next version. regards Philipp -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
