6The Vivante DW100 Dewarp Processor IP core found on i.MX8MP SoC applies a
7programmable geometrical transformation on the input image to correct distortion
8introduced by lenses.
9
10The transformation function is exposed by the hardware as a grid map with 16x16
11pixel macroblocks indexed using X, Y vertex coordinates.

38Each x, y coordinate register uses 16 bits to record the coordinate address in

51The dewarping map is set from applications using the
52V4L2_CID_DW100_DEWARPING_16x16_VERTEX_MAP control. The control contains
53an array of u32 values storing (x, y) destination coordinates for each
54vertex of the grid. The x coordinate is stored in the 16 LSBs and the y
55coordinate in the 16 MSBs.
56
57The number of elements in the array must match the image size:
58
59.. code-block:: C
60
61    elems = (DIV_ROUND_UP(width, 16) + 1) * (DIV_ROUND_UP(height, 16) + 1);
62
63If the control has not been set by the application, the driver uses an identity
64map.
65
66More details on the DW100 hardware operations can be found in
67*chapter 13.15 DeWarp* of IMX8MP_ reference manual.
68
69The Vivante DW100 m2m driver implements the following driver-specific control:
70
71``V4L2_CID_DW100_DEWARPING_16x16_VERTEX_MAP (__u32 array)``
72    Specifies to DW100 driver its dewarping map (aka LUT) blob as described in
73    *chapter 13.15.2.3 Dewarping Remap* of IMX8MP_ reference manual as an U32
74    dynamic array. The image is divided into many small 16x16 blocks. If the
75    width/height of the image is not divisible by 16, the size of the
76    rightmost/bottommost block is the remainder. The dewarping map only saves
77    the vertex coordinates of the block. The dewarping grid map is comprised of
78    vertex coordinates for x and y. Each x, y coordinate register uses 16 bits
79    (UQ12.4) to record the coordinate address, with the Y coordinate in the
80    upper bits and X in the lower bits. The driver modifies the dimensions of
81    this control when the sink format is changed, to reflect the new input
82    resolution.
