Most of the driver-specific documentation is meant to help users of the media subsystem. Move them to the admin-guide. It should be noticed, however, that several of those files are outdated and will require further work in order to make them useful again.

i.MX7 Video Capture Driver
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The i.MX7 contrary to the i.MX5/6 family does not contain an Image Processing
|
|
Unit (IPU); because of that the capabilities to perform operations or
|
|
manipulation of the capture frames are less feature rich.
|
|
|
|
For image capture the i.MX7 has three units:
|
|
- CMOS Sensor Interface (CSI)
|
|
- Video Multiplexer
|
|
- MIPI CSI-2 Receiver
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none

|
Entities
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
imx7-mipi-csi2
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
This is the MIPI CSI-2 receiver entity. It has one sink pad to receive the pixel
|
|
data from MIPI CSI-2 camera sensor. It has one source pad, corresponding to the
|
|
virtual channel 0. This module is compliant to previous version of Samsung
|
|
D-phy, and supports two D-PHY Rx Data lanes.
|
|
|
|
csi-mux
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
This is the video multiplexer. It has two sink pads to select from either camera
|
|
sensor with a parallel interface or from MIPI CSI-2 virtual channel 0. It has
|
|
a single source pad that routes to the CSI.
|
|
|
|
csi
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
The CSI enables the chip to connect directly to external CMOS image sensor. CSI
|
|
can interface directly with Parallel and MIPI CSI-2 buses. It has 256 x 64 FIFO
|
|
to store received image pixel data and embedded DMA controllers to transfer data
|
|
from the FIFO through AHB bus.
|
|
|
|
This entity has one sink pad that receives from the csi-mux entity and a single
|
|
source pad that routes video frames directly to memory buffers. This pad is
|
|
routed to a capture device node.
|
|
|
|
Usage Notes
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
To aid in configuration and for backward compatibility with V4L2 applications
|
|
that access controls only from video device nodes, the capture device interfaces
|
|
inherit controls from the active entities in the current pipeline, so controls
|
|
can be accessed either directly from the subdev or from the active capture
|
|
device interface. For example, the sensor controls are available either from the
|
|
sensor subdevs or from the active capture device.
|
|
|
|
Warp7 with OV2680
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
On this platform an OV2680 MIPI CSI-2 module is connected to the internal MIPI
|
|
CSI-2 receiver. The following example configures a video capture pipeline with
|
|
an output of 800x600, and BGGR 10 bit bayer format:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
# Setup links
|
|
media-ctl -l "'ov2680 1-0036':0 -> 'imx7-mipi-csis.0':0[1]"
|
|
media-ctl -l "'imx7-mipi-csis.0':1 -> 'csi-mux':1[1]"
|
|
media-ctl -l "'csi-mux':2 -> 'csi':0[1]"
|
|
media-ctl -l "'csi':1 -> 'csi capture':0[1]"
|
|
|
|
# Configure pads for pipeline
|
|
media-ctl -V "'ov2680 1-0036':0 [fmt:SBGGR10_1X10/800x600 field:none]"
|
|
media-ctl -V "'csi-mux':1 [fmt:SBGGR10_1X10/800x600 field:none]"
|
|
media-ctl -V "'csi-mux':2 [fmt:SBGGR10_1X10/800x600 field:none]"
|
|
media-ctl -V "'imx7-mipi-csis.0':0 [fmt:SBGGR10_1X10/800x600 field:none]"
|
|
media-ctl -V "'csi':0 [fmt:SBGGR10_1X10/800x600 field:none]"
|
|
|
|
After this streaming can start. The v4l2-ctl tool can be used to select any of
|
|
the resolutions supported by the sensor.
