Here, you seem to bypass the negotiation performed between the CSI and the attached device, wanting to grab the format from the CSI2 sensor directly. That bypasses negotiation performed at the CSI2 subdev and video muxes.
This isn't so much grabbing a pad format, it is determining which source pad at the imx6-mipi-csi2 receiver subdev is reached from this CSI (which determines the virtual channel the CSI is receiving). If there was a way to determine the vc# via a status register in the CSI, that would be perfect, but there isn't. In fact, the CSIs seem to be ignoring the meta-data bus sent by the CSI2IPU gasket which contains this info, or that bus is not being routed to the CSIs. As the note says, the CSIs only accept vc0 at the CSI_MIPI_DI register. Any other value programmed there results in no data from the CSI. And even the presence of CSI_MIPI_DI register makes no sense to me, the CSIs are given the vc# and MIPI datatype from the CSI2IPU meta-data bus, so I don't understand why it needs to be told. Anyway I can just yank this disabled code, it's only there for documentation purposes.
The same goes for the frame rate monitoring code - imho, the frame rate should be something that results from negotiation with the neighbouring element, not by poking at some entity that is several entities away.
I will fix this once the g_frame_interval op is implemented in every subdev. I believe you mentioned this already, but g_frame_interval will need to be chained until it reaches the originating sensor.
