+===========================
+Intel Keembay camera driver
+===========================
+
+Copyright |copy| 2021 Intel Corporation
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+This file documents the Intel Keem Bay camera driver located under
+drivers/media/platform/keembay-camera.
+
+The current version of the driver supports Intel Keem Bay VPU Camera Subsystem
+found in Intel Keem Bay platform.
+
+The Keem Bay VPU camera receives the raw Bayer data from the sensors
+and outputs the frames in a YUV format, it operates in per-frame mode
+and processing parameters are required for each processed video output.
+
+The Keem Bay Camera driver uses Xlink for communication with remote Keem Bay
+VPU Camera subsystem.
+
+The driver implements V4L2, Media controller and V4L2 subdev interfaces.
+Camera sensor using V4L2 subdev interface in the kernel is supported.
+
+Topology
+========
+.. _keembay_camera_topology_graph:
+
+.. kernel-figure:: keembay_camera.dot
+    :alt:   Diagram of the Keem Bay Camera media pipeline topology
+    :align: center
+
+
+The driver has 1 subdevice:
+
+- keembay-camera-isp: ISP subdevice responsible for all ISP operatios.
+  The subdevice supports V4L2_EVENT_FRAME_SYNC event.
+
+The driver has 3 video devices:
+
+- kmb-video-capture: capture device for retrieving processed YUV output.
+- keembay-metadata-stats: metadata capture device for retrieving statistics.
+- keembay-metadata-params: metadata output device that receives processing
+  parameters from userspace.
+
+Device operation
+----------------
+
+The Keem Bay Camera driver is represented as a media device with single
+V4L2 ISP subdev, which provides a V4L2 subdev interface to the user space.
+
+The V4L2 ISP subdev represents a pipe, which can support a maximum of one stream.
+
+The pipe has two source pads and two sink pads for the following purpose:
+
+.. tabularcolumns:: |p{0.8cm}|p{4.0cm}|p{4.0cm}|
+
+.. flat-table::
+
+    * - pad
+      - direction
+      - purpose
+
+    * - 0
+      - sink
+      - MIPI CSI-2 input, connected to the sensor subdev
+
+    * - 1
+      - sink
+      - Processing parameters
+
+    * - 2
+      - source
+      - Output processed video stream
+
+    * - 3
+      - source
+      - 3A statistics
+
+Pad 0 is connected to sensor subdev and should receive data in raw Bayer
+format over MIPI CSI-2 receiver.
+
+Pads 1, 2 and 3 are connected to a corresponding V4L2 video interface,
+exposed to userspace as a V4L2 video device node.
+
+With ISP subdev once the input video node keembay-metadata-params
+connected to pad 1 is queued with ISP processing parameters buffer,
+ISP subdev starts processing and produces the video output in
+YUV format and statistics output on respective output node.
+
+At a minimum, all of the video nodes should be enabled and have buffers queued
+to start the processing.
+
+The Keem Bay ISP V4L2 subdev has the following set of video nodes:
+
+Capture video node
+------------------
+
+The frames received by the sensor over MIPI CSI-2 input are processed by the
+Keem Bay ISP and are output to one single video node in YUV format.
+
+Only the multi-planar API is supported. More details can be found at
+:ref:`planar-apis`.
+
+Parameters video node
+---------------------
+
+The parameters video node receives the Keem Bay ISP algorithm parameters [#f1]_
+that are used to configure how the Keem Bay ISP algorithms process the image.
+
+Details on processing parameters specific to the Keem Bay ISP can be found in
+:ref:`v4l2-meta-fmt-params`.
+
+Statistics video node
+---------------------
+
+3A statistics video node is used by the Keem Bay ISP driver to output the
+statistics for the frames that are being processed by the Keem Bay ISP to
+user space applications. User space applications can use this statistics
+data to compute the desired algorithm parameters for the Keem Bay ISP.
+
+
+Configuring the Keem Bay Camera driver
+======================================
+
+The Keem Bay Camera pipeline can be configured using the Media Controller,
+defined at
+:ref:`media_controller`.
+
+Configuring Keem Bay ISP subdev for frame processing
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+The Keem Bay ISP V4L2 subdev has to be configured with media controller APIs
+to have all the video nodes setup correctly.
+
+Let us take "keembay-camera-isp" subdev as an example. We will use
+media-ctl [#f3]_ and yavta [#f2]_ tools for our example.
+Lets assume that we have sensor subdev connected which produces Raw bayer to
+
+./media-ctl -d $MDEV  -V "'keembay-camera-isp':0[fmt:SRGGB12_1X12/3840x2160]"
+
+./media-ctl -d $MDEV  -V "'keembay-camera-isp':3[fmt:YUYV8_1_5X8/3840x2160]"
+
+
+Now the pipeline is configured and ready to stream. Keem Bay ISP need buffers
+to  be queued on the all of the video nodes to start the stream.
+For that purpose we can use multiple instancies of the yavta tool:
+
+yavta --data-prefix -Bmeta-output -c10 -n5 \
+--file=isp-config.bin /dev/video0 &
+
+yavta --data-prefix -Bmeta-capture -c10 -n5 -I \
+--file=frame-#.stat /dev/video1 &
+
+yavta --data-prefix -Bcapture-mplane -c10 -n5 -I -s3840x2160 \
+--file=frame-#.out -f NV12 /dev/video2 &
+
+
+The captured frames will be stored to frame-#.out files and statistics for
+corresponding frames in frame-#.stat files.
