Hi Sylwester, Guennadi,

I am working on adding DT support for VPIF driver, initially to get
some hands dirty
on working on Capture driver and later will move ahead to add for the display.
I have added asynchronous probing support for the both the bridge and subdevs
which works perfectly like on a charm with passing pdata as usually,
but doing the
same with DT I have few doubts on building the pdata in the bridge driver.


This is a snippet of my subdes in i2c node:-

i2c0: i2c@1c22000 {
			status = "okay";
			clock-frequency =<100000>;
			pinctrl-names = "default";
			pinctrl-0 =<&i2c0_pins>;

			tvp514x@5c {
				compatible = "ti,tvp5146";
				reg =<0x5c>;

				port {
					tvp514x_1: endpoint {
						remote-endpoint =<&vpif_capture0_1>;
						hsync-active =<1>;
						vsync-active =<1>;
						pclk-sample =<0>;
					};
				};
			};

			tvp514x@5d {
				compatible = "ti,tvp5146";
				reg =<0x5d>;

				port {
					tvp514x_2: endpoint {
						remote-endpoint =<&vpif_capture0_0>;
						hsync-active =<1>;
						vsync-active =<1>;
						pclk-sample =<0>;
					};
				};
			};
                  ......
		};

Here tvp514x are the subdevs the platform has two of them one at 0x5c and 0x5d,
so I have added two nodes for them.

Following is DT node for the bridge driver:-

	vpif_capture@0 {
		status = "okay";
		port {

You should also have:
			#address-cells = <1>;
			#size-cells = <0>;

here or in vpif_capture node.

			vpif_capture0_1: endpoint@1 {
				remote =<&tvp514x_1>;
			};
			vpif_capture0_0: endpoint@0 {
				remote =<&tvp514x_2>;
			};
		};
	};

Are tvp514x@5c and tvp514x@5d decoders really connected to same bus, or are
they on separate busses ? If the latter then you should have 2 'port' nodes.
And in such case don't you need to identify to which

I have added two endpoints for the bridge driver. In the bridge driver
to build the pdata from DT node,I do the following,

np = v4l2_of_get_next_endpoint(pdev->dev.of_node, NULL);

The above will give the first endpoint ie, endpoint@1
 From here is it possible to get the tvp514x_1 endpoint node and the
parent of it?

Isn't v4l2_of_get_remote_port_parent() what you need ?

so that I  build the asynchronous subdev list for the bridge driver.


+static struct v4l2_async_subdev tvp1_sd = {
+       .hw = {

This doesn't match the current struct v4l2_async_subdev data strcucture,
there is no 'hw' field now.

+               .bus_type = V4L2_ASYNC_BUS_I2C,
+               .match.i2c = {
+                       .adapter_id = 1,
+                       .address = 0x5c,
+               },
+       },
+};

For building the asd subdev list in the bridge driver I can get the
address easily,
how do I get the adapter_id ? should this be a property subdev ? And also same
with bustype.

I had been working on the async subdev registration support in the exynos4-is
driver this week and I have a few patches for v4l2-async.
What those patches do is renaming V4L2_ASYNC_BUS_* to V4L2_ASYNC_MATCH_*,
adding V4L2_ASYNC_MATCH_OF and a corresponding match_of callback like:

static bool match_of(struct device *dev, struct v4l2_async_subdev *asd)
{
	return dev->of_node == asd->match.of.node;
}

Then a driver registering the notifier, after parsing the device tree, can
just pass a list of DT node pointers corresponding to its subdevs.

All this could also be achieved with V4L2_ASYNC_BUS_CUSTOM, but I think it's
better to make it as simple as possible for drivers by extending the core
a little.

I'm going to post those patches as RFC on Monday.
