Greetings,

I'm testing Linux master built with imx_v6_v7_defconfig on a GW51xx which
has an ADV7180 analog video decoder and am not seeing the imx6 /dev/media
node get created:

I suspect the failure of the adv7180 is causing the issue. Steve mentioned
some time ago that this was an error that needed to be fixed upstream but
I'm not clear if that is still the case.

That does need fixing but is not the cause.

I haven't looked at IMX media drivers since they were accepted to mainline
a few months back. Perhaps I'm simply forgetting to enable something in the
kernel that imx_v6_v7_defconfig doesn't turn on?

Yes, it looks like you are missing the video-mux. Enable CONFIG_VIDEO_MUX
and CONFIG_MUX_MMIO.

Steve,

Indeed that was it! What clued you into that being the missing component?

It was easy :) There needs to be the following message from imx-media:

imx-media: Registered subdev ipu1_csi0_mux
imx-media: Registered subdev ipu2_csi1_mux

for quad, and

imx-media: Registered subdev ipu1_csi0_mux
imx-media: Registered subdev ipu1_csi1_mux

for D/L.

All imx6 platforms require the video-mux for video capture.

Steve


Sounds like we need to enable that for imx_v6_v7_defconfig.

Agreed, but I notice now that CONFIG_MEDIA_CONTROLLER and
CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L2_SUBDEV_API are not enabled there anymore.
I guess there was some config conflict that necessitated disabling
them, but without them there is no media platform device support at
all anyway. Those must be enabled first before getting CONFIG_VIDEO_MUX.
