Implement g_register and s_register v4l2_subdev_core_ops to access
camera register directly from userspace for debug purposes.
As the name of the operations imply, this is meant for debug purpose
only. They are however prone to be abused to configure the sensor from
userspace in production, which isn't a direction we want to take.
What's your use case for this ? I'd rather drop this patch and see the
driver extended with support for more controls if needed
thanks for your feedback.
I get your point. I myself solely use these operations for debugging
purposes but I'm aware that others like to abuse them.
I thought I send it anyway since for me the DEBUG config is enough to
signalize that these operations are not to be used with a productive system.
But I'm OK with dropping this patch if you think it might send the wrong signal.
I'd rather avoid this patch due to the risk of abuse if it's OK with
you.
Yes, that's fine. I will drop it in v3.
Regards,
Stefan
