I tried with many resolutions when I was checking out the sensor, and came to the conclusion that the line count must be even. Otherwise the last 4 bytes of the buffer would end up corrupted. My guess is that the copy engine can indeed only do bursts of 8 bytes, but that the whole buffer is copied at once rather than line-by-line. > > > > > > Signed-off-by: Dorota Czaplejewicz <dorota.czaplejewicz@puri.sm> > > > > > --- > > > > > Hello, > > > > > > > > > > the Librem 5 is using an out-of-tree driver for s5k3l6xx, and > > > > > rounding to 4 is optimal to operate it. > > > > > > > > > > This revision improves the commit message. > > > > > > > > > > Cheers, > > > > > Dorota Czaplejewicz > > > > > > > > > > drivers/staging/media/imx/imx7-media-csi.c | 4 ++-- > > > > > 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > > > > > > > > > diff --git a/drivers/staging/media/imx/imx7-media-csi.c b/drivers/staging/media/imx/imx7-media-csi.c > > > > > index a0553c24cce4..af821b410c3f 100644 > > > > > --- a/drivers/staging/media/imx/imx7-media-csi.c > > > > > +++ b/drivers/staging/media/imx/imx7-media-csi.c > > > > > @@ -999,10 +999,10 @@ static int imx7_csi_mbus_fmt_to_pix_fmt(struct v4l2_pix_format *pix, > > > > > } > > > > > > > > > > /* Round up width for minimum burst size */ > > > > > - width = round_up(mbus->width, 8); > > > > > + width = round_up(mbus->width, 4); > > > > > > > > > > /* Round up stride for IDMAC line start address alignment */ > > > > > - stride = round_up((width * cc->bpp) >> 3, 8); > > > > > + stride = round_up((width * cc->bpp) >> 3, 4); > > > > > > > > > > pix->width = width; > > > > > pix->height = mbus->height; >

Section 13.7.6.13 "CSI Image Parameter Register" of the i.MX 8M Quad Applications Processors Reference Manual states that the line size should be divisible by 8 bytes. However, the hardware also accepts sizes divisible by 4 bytes, which are needed to fully utilize the S5K3L6XX sensors. This patch accepts line sizes divisible by 4 bytes. Signed-off-by: Dorota Czaplejewicz <dorota.czaplejewicz@puri.sm> --- Hello, the Librem 5 is using an out-of-tree driver for s5k3l6xx, and rounding to 4 is optimal to operate it. This revision improves the commit message. Cheers, Dorota Czaplejewicz drivers/staging/media/imx/imx7-media-csi.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
