[PATCH v10 2/4] media: dt-bindings: Add CSI Pixel Formatter DT bindings

From: guoniu . zhou

Date: Thu Jun 18 2026 - 05:39:47 EST


From: Guoniu Zhou <guoniu.zhou@xxxxxxx>

The i.MX95 CSI pixel formatting module uses packet info, pixel and
non-pixel data from the CSI-2 host controller and reformat them to
match Pixel Link(PL) definition.

Changes in v10:
- Drop syscon parent node from example
- Drop Reviewed-by tags from Frank and Krzysztof due to binding changes
- Add description for reg property
- Add space after formatter@20 before opening brace in example
- Enhance the port description with more detailed information
- Delete the blank line immediately following the endpoint in example

Changes in v9:
- Use direct node instead of syscon wrapper in example

Changes in v8:
- Use standard port reference instead of video-interfaces.yaml
- Add parent syscon node in example to show device integration
- Add required constraints for port@0 and port@1 in ports node

Changes in v7:
- Change compatible to imx95-csi-formatter as IP is i.MX95 specific per Marco's suggestion
