I've attached 'media-ctl -p' output for clarity. This is imx8m-mini based board on 5.19.0-rc6. When selecting a test pattern with: v4l2-ctl -d /dev/v4l-subdev2 --set-ctrl=test_pattern=2 I get this from v4l2-ctl: VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS: failed: Invalid argument test_pattern: Invalid argument but the fun part is that my .s_ctrl() routine receives V4L2_CID_TEST_PATTERN and ctrl->val is indeed 2, hence i'm setting sensor registers according to this data. I (falsely) assumed this would be a 'sticky' attribute so when i ask the receiver driver (/dev/video0) to start streaming, it wouldn't change the test pattern value under my feet. Instead the imx492 driver once again receive V4L2_CID_TEST_PATTERN, this time with ctrl->val == 0, which kind of ruins all the fun. Following you advice, i tried to find which CSI2 driver might be the culprit. None of the relevant drivers in drivers/staging/media/imx have v4l2_ctrl_ops callback registered. If that's what i am supposed to look for, which now seems unlikely. Do you have other recommendations about what (and where) should i look next? Petko
