55927c98a2c88019e23353a87f44032107ca2854 - media: atmel: atmel-isc: move to staging

Mon, 07 Nov 2022 15:18:18 +0100

media: atmel: atmel-isc: move to stagingThe Atmel ISC driver is not compliant with media controller specification.In order to evolve this driver, it has to move to media controller, tosupport enhanced features and future products which embed it.The move to media controller involves several changes which arenot backwards compatible with the current usability of the driver.The best example is the way the format is propagated from the top videodriver /dev/videoX down to the sensor.In a simple configuration sensor ==> isc , the isc just calls subdev s_fmtand controls the sensor directly. This is achieved by having a lot of codeinside the driver that will query the subdev at probe time and make a listof formats which are usable.Basically the user has nothing to configure, as the isc will handleeverything at the top level. This is an easy way to capture, but also comeswith the drawback of lack of flexibility.In a more complicated pipelinesensor ==> controller 1 ==> controller 2 ==> iscthis will not be achievable, as controller 1 and controller 2 might bemedia-controller configurable, and will not propagate the formats down tothe sensor.After discussions with the media maintainers, the decision is to moveAtmel ISC to staging as-is, to keep the Kconfig symbols and the usersto the driver in staging. Thus, all the existing users of the nonmedia-controller paradigm will continue to be happy and use the old configway.The new driver was added in the media subsystem with a differentsymbol, with the conversion to media controller done, and new usersof the driver will be able to use all the new features.This patch is merely a file move to staging, not affecting any of theusers.The exported symbols had to be renamed to atmel_* to avoid duplication withthe new Microchip ISC driver.Signed-off-by: Eugen Hristev Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab List of files: /linux/drivers/staging/media/Kconfig
