I hope to look at this series this week (fingers crossed), but I was asked to
give some input w.r.t. testing of this series:

I think before this can be merged we need:

1) libcamera tests. Since libcamera would probably be the most active user of this
API, and you have HW for it, it makes a lot of sense that there are decent tests
for the supported HW in libcamera. That takes care of the real-world tests.

2) obviously the existing utils in v4l-utils need to be adapted to understand any
new API elements.

3) compliance tests in v4l2-compliance for the new API. After I did a review of the
series we can see to what extent this is possible.

4) optionally (for now at least, I reserve the right to change my mind): it would
be very helpful if this can be added to vimc (or something similar), allowing for
testing the API without having real hardware, which is useful both for writing
the tests and for running regression tests regularly on a simple VM, without needing
special hardware.

Regards,
