Title: TE026 csi camera port, how enable v4l2?
Post by: Shogun on September 06, 2016, 10:19:30 AM
Hi there,

so far I use the device-tree definitions found in TE0726-rpi_hw_ips-vivado_2015.4-build_34_20160602111427, it covers a lot of Zynqberry's hardware but there is no definitions in system-top.dts for the camera.

It is obvious that VIDEO_XILINX and VIDEO_V4L2 need to be enabled in the kernel settings, but I have no idea how to configure in system-top.dts or whatever else might be neccessary.

Can someone share with us, please?

Thanks
Michael

the  linux video way is complex :(

what we have done is only setting up framebuffer for the camera, this works, we should also have dts for this. But in the hdmi+camera design the camera was set to disabled to make the image boot without camera attached.

V4L2, etc it is really complex set of stuff, same for the DRM :(
so while it may be possible we do not have full setup for V4L2 setup
