I can be wrong (since I haven't looked at your driver) but this usually indicates your sensor is powered and properly configured to at least read some CHIP_ID register. The regulators are likely always-on in your sensor module, so maybe probably that's why it works. See for instance arch/arm64/boot/dts/renesas/aistarvision-mipi-adapter-2.1.dtsi for an example of how regulators can be declared. There are other ways, it's just an example. > ... > [ 7.352292] rockchip_isp1: module is from the staging directory, the quality is unknown, you have been warned. > ... > [ 7.356178] rkisp1 ff910000.isp0: Adding to iommu group 4 > ... > [ 7.357637] rkisp1: registered rkisp1_mainpath as /dev/video0 > [ 7.357816] rkisp1: registered rkisp1_selfpath as /dev/video1 > > ---------------------------------------- > > And this command (try to stream 50 frames from video1 which the mainpath > on the RkISP1): > root@nanopct4:~# v4l2-ctl --stream-to /home/basti/test.raw --stream-mmap 50 -d /dev/video0 --verbose > > I get this output: > VIDIOC_STREAMON returned -1 (No such device) > > And this kernel log message: > [16939.667867] rkisp1 ff910000.isp0: No link between isp and sensor > This error seems useful. It would indicate your sensor is not connected (software-connected) to the ISP.

I can be wrong, but I don't see your sensor appearing anywhere in the topology. See for instance, the example in the driver documentation: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/media/rkisp1.html And note the section where the topology is set, connecting the imx219 sensor to rkisp1_isp sink pad0: "media-ctl" "-d" "platform:rkisp1" "-l" "'imx219 4-0010':0 -> 'rkisp1_isp':0 [1]" So I would say you are very much on the right track, but you still need a bit more work to construct the capture pipeline. Not sure if this helps, or makes things more complicated, but instead of v4l2-ctl, I would personally start with libcamera, and work from there. Cheers, Ezequiel
