+=================================================
+Amlogic C3 Image Signal Processing (C3ISP) driver
+=================================================
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+This file documents the Amlogic C3ISP driver located under
+drivers/media/platform/amlogic/c3-isp.
+
+The current version of the driver supports the C3ISP found on
+Amlogic C308L processor.
+
+The driver implements V4L2, Media controller and V4L2 subdev interfaces.
+Camera sensor using V4L2 subdev interface in the kernel is supported.
+
+The driver has been tested on AW419-C308L-Socket platform.
+
+Anlogic Camera hardware
+=======================
+
+The Camera hardware found on C308L processors and supported by
+the driver consists of:
+
+- 1 MIPI-CSI2 module. It handle the Physical layer of the CSI2 receivers and
+ receive MIPI data.
+ A separate camera sensor can be connected to MIPI-CSi2 module.
+- 1 MIPI-ADAPTER module. Organize MIPI data to meet ISP input requirements and
+ send MIPI data to ISP
+- 1 ISP (Image Signal Processing) module. Contain a pipeline of image processing
+ hardware blocks.
+ The ISP pipeline contains three scalers at the end.
+ The ISP also contains the DMA interface which writes the output data to memory.
+
+Supported functionality
+=======================
+
+The current version of the driver supports:
+
+- Input from camera sensor via MIPI-CSI2;
+
+- Pixel output interface of ISP
+
+ - Scaling support. Configuration of the scaler module
+ for downscalling with ratio up to 8x.
+
+Driver Architecture and Design
+==============================
+
+The driver implements the V4L2 subdev interface. With the goal to model the
+hardware links between the modules and to expose a clean, logical and usable
+interface, the driver is split into V4L2 sub-devices as follows:
+
+- 1 mipi-csi2 sub-device - mipi-csi2 is represented by a single sub-device.
+- 1 mipi-adapter sub-device - mipi-adapter is represented by a single sub-devices.
+- 1 isp-core sub-device - isp-core is represented by a single sub-devices.
+- 3 isp-resizer sub-devices - isp-resizer is represented by a number of sub-devices
+ equal to the number of capture device.
+
+isp-core sub-device is linked to 2 separate video device nodes and
+3 isp-resizer sub-devices nodes.
+
+- 1 capture statistics video device node.
+- 1 output parameters video device node.
+- 3 isp-resizer sub-device nodes.
+
+isp-resizer sub-device is linked to capture video device node.
+
+- isp-resizer0 is linked to isp-cap0
+- isp-resizer1 is linked to isp-cap1
+- isp-resizer2 is linked to isp-cap2
+
+The media controller pipeline graph is as follows (with connected a
+IMX290 camera sensor):
+
+.. _isp_topology_graph:
+
+.. kernel-figure:: c3-isp.dot
+ :alt: c3-isp.dot
+ :align: center
+
+ Media pipeline topology
+
+Implementation
+==============
+
+Runtime configuration of the hardware via 'isp-params' video device node.
+Acquiring statistics of ISP hardware via 'isp-stats' video device node.
+Acquiring output image of ISP hardware via 'isp-video[0, 2]' video device node.
+
+The output size of the scaler module in the ISP is configured with
+the pixel format of 'isp-video[0, 2]' video device node.
