Improve error handling in the rcar-vin driver

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

this series is a followup to the other series [1] started by Niklas Söderlund
where only the first patch has been merged. The overall idea is to be more
compliant with the Renesas hardware manual which requires a reset or stop
of capture in the VIN module before reset of CSI2. Another goal (achieved
by the patch 3/3) is to be more resilient with respect to non-critical CSI2
errors so the driver does not end in an endless restart loop.

Patch 1/3 has been taken from [1] with some additional documentation changes.
Patch 2/3 is included without any changes.
Patch 3/3 is based on discussions in [2], where I also found one method to
trigger CSI2 errors in the video pipeline on a Salvator board for testing
by manipulating CSI2-related registers in the adv7482:

$ i2cset -f -y 4 0x64 0x00 0x04
$ i2cset -f -y 4 0x64 0x00 0x24
