Hi Niklas,
Thanks for your work.
Hi Julien,
I think we can adopt a similar approach for the max96716 deserializer using your work
on max96714 driver. What do you think?
Thanks in advance.
I don't think that supporting MAX96716 and MAX96714 in the same driver
is the best option
MAX96714 is a very simple device with one input one output one video pipe.
While the MAX96716 is a two inputs/outputs with four different pipes.
IMHO we should have one driver for the 1 port GMSL2 devices, another
driver for the dual deserializers which will introduce more complex
routing, and another one for the quad deserializers since the register
layout is too much different.
But that's only my opinion let's see when we will implement the dual
deserializer support.
We can of course share some functions for those drivers like GPIO
handling or pattern generation.
Regards,
Julien
