So the other IRQ will be triggered ? After this one ? Is so, perhaps take a
moment to mark the frames as ERROR (which means corrupted).

Warnings by default are not acceptable.

Its well known that GStreamer v4l2convert element have no support for
detinterlacing and need to be improved to support any deinterlace drivers out
there.

Other drivers will simply holds on output buffers until it has enough to produce
the first valid picture. Holding meaning not marking them done, which keeps then
in the ACTIVE state, which is being tracked by the core for your.

Not sure I get your response, v4l2-common is used in many drivers already, and
we intent to keep improving it so that all driver uses it in the long term. It
been created because folks believed they can calculate bytesperline and
sizeimage, but as the number of format grows, it always endup wrong, causing the
HW to overflow and break the system at a larger scale.

int ipu_ic_calc_csc(struct ipu_ic_csc *csc,
                    enum v4l2_ycbcr_encoding in_enc,
                    enum v4l2_quantization in_quant,
                    enum ipu_color_space in_cs,
                    enum v4l2_ycbcr_encoding out_enc,
                    enum v4l2_quantization out_quant,
                    enum ipu_color_space out_cs)

So instead of simply overriding CSC like you do, let userspace set different CSC
in and out, so that IPU can handle the conversion properly with correct colors.
That requires to flag these in the fmt_desc structure during enum format, and to
only read acknowledge the CSC if userspace have set V4L2_PIX_FMT_FLAG_SET_CSC,
in other condition, the information must be ignored (which you don't).
