We have this CPLD init API - evm_init_cpld() called from the dm365_evm_init() function. The CPLD init API was trying to initialize the CPLD, based on the default configuration. I believe David Brownell had this placeholder for have_imager() and have_tvp7002() APIs since, we have different CPLD settings for the imager, tvp7002 and tvp5146 for the video input source. > > > 1.

However we do not need a new callback function. We already have the VPFE .setup_input callback API dm365evm_setup_video_input() for the same purpose. The VPFE .setup_input API is called when each of the decoders (sub-devices) registered with VPFE capture driver. It is also called when the application decides on an input source and switches between the input sources. So, TVP5146 remains as the default video input source, only until VPFE probe is called, which registers the all decoders (sub-devices) defined in the VPFE platform data. This also means that the last decoder in the VPFE platform data remains active after boot-up. One can change the order in the VPFE platform data if a particular input source needs to remain active after boot-up. Note that application can always switch the input-source at run time. I quickly tried removing the have_imager() construct in the evm_init_cpld() and here is the output - Starting kernel ...

As you can see, the default video input source is TVP5146 and it has been video input source has been switched to TVP7002. Thanks Sneha > > > 2.
