mx3_camera and DMA / double buffering

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

 



Hello,

we're working with a special cameraboard (CCD + Analog Frontend IC). Using the soc_camera stack on the i.MX35 (mx3_camera) the following problem arises:

VIDIOC_STREAMON calls soc_camera_streamon which calls videobuf_streamon - when iterating the buffers in the queue the function mx3_videobuf_queue is called for every buffer. This sends the buffers to the omage DMA (IDMAC) using the tx_submit method. The function ipu_init_channel_buffer (DMA driver ipu_core) gets only one buffer from the scatterlist, this leads to a single buffer capture.

In the code of mx3_videobuf_prepare there is a comment, that the first buffer's scatterlist needs to contain two buffers but this is not implemented.

I try to understand the interworking of the parts (soc_camera, videobuf, ipu_core and mx3_camera) and would help to fix it.

Best regards,

Markus Niebel
