Hi Tomi,

Thank you for the patch.

s/i2c/I2C/

Same below.

A bit more details would be nice, for instance the order in which
addresses should be specified should be documented. The example below
has one address only, so it's quite unclear. Or is this a left-over,
from before the i2c-alias-pool ?

As this property is optional, should you describe what happens when it's
not specified ?

I would also indicate that the pool doesn't cover the serializers, only
the devices behind them.

There can be up to 4 links only, right ? I would then use

      '^link@[0-3]$':

Are there use cases for controlling this dynamically (in particular the
sync/non-sync modes) ? Is there anything that could be queried at
runtime from the serializers instead of being specified in DT ?

Same question for the parameters below. Additionally, are there any
parameters that need to be identical for all links ?

The ports should be mandatory, shouldn't they ?

That's a left over, but not related to i2c-alias-pool but the i2c-alias 
for the serializers. It already says above 'maxItems: 1', so now it only 
contains the deserializer address. I'll drop the desc.

Yep, I'll clarify these.

We need a link to the serializer before we can query anything from the 
serializer. To have a link, we need the mode... So, as I mentioned in 
the other reply, we could define these in some way in the serializer's 
properties instead of here, but I'm not sure if that's a good change.

The driver can change the mode at runtime (say, from sync to non-sync 
mode, if the HW supports that). But I think this property should reflect 
the HW strapped configuration of the serializer.

The same answer to the cdr-mode. No need to be identical.

The strobe-pos and eq-level are unrelated to this topic.

Did you mean data-lanes? Yes, data-lanes should be mandatory.

I meant querying it from the serializer driver, not the serializer
hardware. This being said, it would likely be difficult to do so, as the
serializer driver would need to probe first. I think I'm thus fine
selecting the mode in DT on the deserializer side.

That would possibly work for the DS90UB953, but the DS90UB913 has no
strapped mode selected at boot time but is instead configured
automatically through the back-channel (see my last reply to patch 3/8).

When connecting a DS90UB913 to a DS90UB914 deserializer, we can probably
start without mode selection in software, as the MODE pin is meant to
bootstrap that to a correct value which is then automatically
transmitted to the serializer (hardware designs where the mode would
need to be overridden should be rate). However, when connecting multiple
DS90UB913 to a DS90UB960, I can imagine connecting different types of
cameras on the four input ports, so the need to specify the mode
per-port in DT would be more common.

For these reasons, I don't think the ti,rx-mode property can be defined
as reflecting the hardware MODE strap with the DS90UB913. I also think
it would be quite confusing to define it as the desired runtime
configuration for the DS90UB913 and as the hardware MODE strap for the
DS90UB953. Could it be (explicitly) defined as the desired runtime
configuration in all cases ?

I don't know if that's true. I guess it depends on how you see the deser 
and the camera module. Are they part of the same HW design or not? In my 
setups they are quite separate, and I connect different kinds of camera 
modules to my deserializers. But I can see that if you create a, say, 
car, you'd have both sides known at design time and would never change.

Right, and even with UB914, you might well design the deserializer side 
with, say, RAW10 sensors, but later in the cycle you'd need to change to 
a RAW12 sensor. Depending on the deser mode strap would require you to 
do a HW change on the deser side too.

As I said in the other mail, I don't like the deser's strap, and I think 
we should just basically ignore it as we can provide the necessary data 
in the DT.

That sounds bad in a DT context =). You're right that the rx-mode can't 
be defined as reflecting the serializer mode strap, but I think we can 
define it as reflecting the default operation mode of the serializer 
hardware (or maybe rather the camera module).

What I meant is that, given that the UB914 is meant to be used with a
single camera, using a RAW mode, there's a much higher chance that
hardware strapping will work as intended there. We could thus start
without support for overrides in a UB914 driver (but as far as I
understand we're not planning to work on such a driver in the near
future, so it's hypothetical only), while in the UB960 driver we
probably need override support from the beginning.

What do you mean by "default operation mode" in this case ?

Yes, but depending on the UB914 strap mode would still be only a partial 
solution, and it would still need to also support overriding the strap 
mode (from DT). As you said in the other mail, we anyway have to define 
the serializer and the sensor in the DT, so even with UB914 we couldn't 
just switch the camera module and change the mode via a DIP switch.

So I still don't see why we would even bother supporting the deser strap 
mode, even on UB914.

How the camera module is HW strapped and supposed to be used, how it 
works (more or less) out of the box:

- The UB953 is HW strapped to sync or non-sync CSI mode, or RAW mode.
- Both UB913 and UB953 (in RAW mode) have a sensor connected either with 
10 or 12 lines.
- The sensor has a default (either HW or use-case default) pixel clock.

Based on those, I think we get all the possible modes. So, I think, 
every camera module will have a known "normal" / "default" mode, which 
is what the mode in the DT tells.

Well, for FPD4, there's also the CDR mode. UB971 can work in both FDP3 
and FPD4 modes. But there again it should be clear what's the "normal" 
operation mode, as it comes from a serializer HW strap.

We can do changes to those at runtime (not supported by the drivers), 
e.g. changing from sync to non-sync CSI mode, changing the RAW mode, and 
even changing from FDP4 to FDP3. But those, I believe, are rare cases, 
and the changes have to be done carefully, on both the deser and ser 
sides in certain order.

So, back to the original point, "desired runtime configuration" and 
"default operation mode" are maybe the same thing =).

What I meant is that I wouldn't nack an initial UB914 driver submission
just because it didn't support that feature, while for the UB960, I
think it should be there from the start. That's all theoretical anyway,
no UB914 driver is planned, and the feature should be so easy to add
that it would likely be there from the start.

I'm fine with this, it "just" needs to be expressed in a clear way in
the bindings :-)
