Hi Sakari,

Thank you so much for your review.

Hi Xiaolei,

On the RK3576 platform, after ov5645_global_init_setting completes and
before stream on, the CSI host reports a high rate of CRC errors:

MIPI_CSI2 ERR1:0x1000000 (crc,vc: 0)

These errors occur exclusively in the window between init completion and
stream on. Once preview starts and the sensor outputs valid HS data, no
further CRC errors are observed.

Commit 092e8eb90a7d ("media: i2c: ov5645: Fix power sequence") reworked
the power sequence to properly enter LP-11 during power-up. As part of
this change, the SYSTEM_CTRL0_STOP (0x42) write in s_power() was replaced
with usleep_range(500, 1000), leaving the sensor in wake state (0x3008 =
0x02) from init through to s_stream. Reverting this commit resolves the
CRC errors, confirming it as the triggering change.

Restore the power-down state after init by appending { 0x3008, 0x42 } to
the end of ov5645_global_init_setting[]. This powers down the sensor core
after MIPI configuration is complete, while keeping the MIPI PHY active in
LP-11. The sensor is then woken up only at s_stream time.

This preserves all LP-11 compliance improvements from
commit 092e8eb90a7d ("media: i2c: ov5645: Fix power sequence") while
eliminating the CRC errors on RK3576.

Is the earlier write of 0x3008 still appropriate?
You're right,  I tested removing the { 0x3008, 0x02 } write
and the MIPI PHY still enters LP-11 correctly without it. The CRC errors
are also gone.

The 0x02 was a leftover introduced by commit 092e8eb90a7d when it moved
the 0x42 stop out of s_power() — the sensor doesn't need to be explicitly

woken in the init table since s_stream handles that later.

thanks
