This series aims to upport bcm2835-isp from the RPi kernel [1] and is a
independent subset of earlier series [2] posted to upport CSI-2/CCP2
receiver IP core("Unicam) + the ISP driver found in BCM283x and compatible
SoCs (namely BCM2711). Unicam is still under active development to work
with multistream support to get into mainline. Hence only the ISP driver
will remain the primary area of this series.
thanks for working on this. But honestly i would prefer that vchiq comes
out of staging before adding more features. As Greg said some time ago
staging is not a place to "dump code and run away". These new files are
in the same bad shape as the rest of vc04 before the clean-up here in
staging started.
I agree that VCSM is on the TODO list for vchiq, but this driver is not
necessary for making bcm2835-audio & bcm2835-camera leave staging. It
just binds more resources on a new feature.
Unfortuntately i hadn't much time to work on vchiq by myself.
Just my two cents
Stefan
