Hi Adam, There are many possibility's that result in an -EPIPE when validating formats and unfortunately V4L2 is not always as very helpfull when diagnosing the problem. What I usually do is to, 1. Inspect rvin_mc_validate_format() in drivers/media/platform/rcar-vin/rcar-dma.c This will give you a clear view of how the format between the CSI-2 and VIN is validated. 2. Increase the log level for drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-subdev.c specially for v4l2_subdev_link_validate_default(). This will give you insight into all formats from the CSI-2 receiver towards the camera. By doing these two things you will see in the system log which part of the format validation that is missmatched. There is also a wiki page for capture using R-Car VIN that may be helpful for you. https://elinux.org/R-Car/Tests:rcar-vin On 2021-03-12 08:28:41 -0600, Adam Ford wrote: > I have an IMX290 camera connected to an RZ/G2M SoC via the 4-channel CSI. > > &csi40 { > status = "okay"; > > ports { > port@0 { > reg = <0>; > csi40_in: endpoint { > clock-lanes = <0>; > data-lanes = <1 2 3 4>; > remote-endpoint = <&imx290_ep>; > }; > }; > }; > }; > > On the I2C bus, I have > > imx290: camera-sensor@1a { > compatible = "sony,imx290"; > reg = <0x1a>; > reset-gpios = <&gpio_exp2 0 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>; > clocks = <&versaclock6_bb 1>; > clock-names = "xclk"; > clock-frequency = <37125000>; > vdddo-supply = <®_cam0_en0>; > vdda-supply = <®_cam0_en1>; > vddd-supply = <®_cam0_en0>; > > port { > imx290_ep: endpoint { > data-lanes = <1 2 3 4>; > link-frequencies = /bits/ 64 <148500000 222750000>; > remote-endpoint = <&csi40_in>; > }; > }; > }; > > I configure the pipeline with: > > media-ctl -l "'rcar_csi2 feaa0000.csi2':1 -> 'VIN0 output':0[1]" > > I also have tried configuring the video formats in several different ways > > media-ctl --set-v4l2 "'imx290 2-001a':0[fmt:SRGGB12_1X12/1920x1080 field:none]" > media-ctl --set-v4l2 "'rcar_csi2 > feaa0000.csi2':0[fmt:SRGGB12_1X12/1920x1080 field:none]" > media-ctl --set-v4l2 "'rcar_csi2 > feaa0000.csi2':1[fmt:SRGGB12_1X12/1920x1080 field:none]" > > or > > media-ctl --set-v4l2 "'rcar_csi2 > feaa0000.csi2':0[fmt:UYVY8_2X8/1920x1080 field:none]" > media-ctl --set-v4l2 "'rcar_csi2 > feaa0000.csi2':1[fmt:UYVY8_2X8/1920x1080 field:none]" > media-ctl --set-v4l2 "'imx290 2-001a':0[fmt:UYVY8_2X8/1920x1080 field:non > > but no matter what I do when I attempt to stream, I get a broken pipe, > even when I use fakesink as the target. > > root@beacon-rzg2h:~# GST_DEBUG=2 gst-launch-1.0 -v v4l2src > device=/dev/video1 !
