Hi Wills,

Thanks for the patch. First and foremost, the title of the patch is
wrong. This patch does more than just adding some "adv7604
compatibility." It's adding pad-level API to soc-camera.

This is just a rough review. I'm not an expert in media-controller /
pad-level API, I hope someone with a better knowledge of those areas
will help me reviewing this.

Another general comment: it has been discussed since a long time,
whether a wrapper wouldn't be desired to enable a seamless use of both
subdev drivers using and not using the pad-level API. Maybe it's the
right time now?..

This would be a considerable change and would most probably take a rather
long time, given how busy everyone is.

If I understood correctly Hans Verkuil told me over the weekend that he
wanted to address this problem in the near future. Hans, could you detail
your plans ?

That's correct. This patch series makes all the necessary changes.

Patches 1-4 have been merged already, but I need to do more testing for the
remainder. The Renesas SH7724 board is ideal for that, but unfortunately I
can't get it to work with the current kernel.

I can't help you much with that, but I could test changes using the rcar-vin
driver with the adv7180 if needed (does the adv7180 generate an image if no
analog source is connected ?).

I expect so, most SDTV receivers do that.

It has a freerun mode, in which it can output various kinds of patterns, see https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/27894/
