Hi Robert,

Thank you for your patch!

The CSI-2 spec defines the following types:
- Data Type - Often abbreviated DT
- Decode Format - Often abbreviated as DF
- Encode Format

These definitions are as far as I can tell complete for CSI-2.

Additionally the Qualcomm internal type describing Plain Formats
has been added. Plain formats describe the size of the pixels
written by the RDI units to memory. PLAIN8 for example has the size
8 bits, and PLAIN32 32 bits. The appropriate Plain Format is
determined by the Decode Format used. The smallest Plain Format
that is able to contain a pixel of the used Decode Format is the
appropriate one to use.

- these look OK for me (the old MIPI spec draft I have doesn't have
some of the data types listed above).

As these are generic values from the MIPI standard, it could probably make
sense to create a common header file for that someday.
E.g. the very similar defines (same values, different names) are present in
drivers/staging/media/atomisp/pci/isp_capture_defs.h
But it looks like most of the current drivers don't need the MIPI data type
defines, so not a problem at the moment.

- interesting that the subset of the DECODE_FORMAT's used in
camss-csid-4-1.c (the first four formats above - UNCOMPRESSED_6_BIT
to UNCOMPRESSED_12_BIT ones) has the same values as the corresponding
field in the CSID_CID_n_CFG registers - according to the public
"APQ8016E Technical Reference Manual" [1]. So these exact DECODE_FORMAT_*
values are written into the bits 7:4 of the hw register.
But in [1] the values of DPCM_10_6_10 to DPCM_12_8_12 are 0x4 to 0x7
(as the camss-csid-4-1.c doesn't support DPCM this is not an issue).
Are the DECODE_FORMAT_* values above defined in the MIPI standard, or did
they come from the datasheet for a particular SOC?

- the ENCODE_FORMAT_* defines are not used in the driver.

- the PLAIN_FORMAT_* defines are not used in the driver, but
camss-csid-4-1.c and camss-csid-4-7.c do define there own
CAMSS_CSID_CID_n_CFG_PLAIN_FORMAT_8 and CAMSS_CSID_CID_n_CFG_PLAIN_FORMAT_16
(without relying on PLAIN_FORMAT_PLAIN8 or PLAIN_FORMAT_PLAIN16).

Thanks,
Andrey
