Current configuration in the document is outdated and doesn't work. Update it to match the configuration described in the following commit: commit 9b4a9b31b9ae ("media: vimc: Enable set resolution at the scaler src pad") Fixed commit description: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Dafna Hirschfeld <dafna@fastmail.com> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@kernel.org>

2022-02-16media: vimc: Add support for contiguous DMA buffersLaurent Pinchart1-0/+13
The vimc driver is used for testing purpose, and some test use cases involve sharing buffers with a consumer device. Consumers often require DMA contiguous memory, which vimc doesn't currently support. This leads in the best case to usage of bounce buffers, which is very slow, and in the worst case in a complete failure. Add support for the dma-contig allocator in vimc to support those use cases properly. The allocator is selected through a new "allocator" module parameter, which defaults to vmalloc.

2021-09-30media: vimc: Enable set resolution at the scaler src padPedro Terra1-16/+4
Modify the scaler subdevice to accept setting the resolution of the source pad (previously the source resolution would always be 3 times the sink for both dimensions). Now any resolution can be set at src (even smaller ones) and the sink video will be scaled to match it. Test example: With the vimc module up (using the default vimc topology) media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Sensor A":0[fmt:SBGGR8_1X8/640x480]' media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Debayer A":0[fmt:SBGGR8_1X8/640x480]' media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Scaler":0[fmt:RGB888_1X24/640x480]' media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Scaler":0[crop:(100,50)/400x150]' media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Scaler":1[fmt:RGB888_1X24/300x700]' v4l2-ctl -z platform:vimc -d "RGB/YUV Capture" -v width=300,height=700 v4l2-ctl -z platform:vimc -d "Raw Capture 0" -v pixelformat=BA81 v4l2-ctl --stream-mmap --stream-count=10 -z platform:vimc -d "RGB/YUV Capture" \ --stream-to=test.raw The result will be a cropped stream that can be checked with the command ffplay -loglevel warning -v info -f rawvideo -pixel_format rgb24 \ -video_size "300x700" test.raw Co-developed-by: Gabriela Bittencourt <gabrielabittencourt00@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Gabriela Bittencourt <gabrielabittencourt00@gmail.com> Co-developed-by: Gabriel Francisco Mandaji <gfmandaji@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Gabriel Francisco Mandaji <gfmandaji@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Pedro Terra <pedro@terraco.de> Reviewed-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com> Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil-cisco@xs4all.nl> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
2020-04-14media: docs: move user-facing docs to the admin guideMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+90
Most of the driver-specific documentation is meant to help users of the media subsystem. Move them to the admin-guide. It should be noticed, however, that several of those files are outdated and will require further work in order to make them useful again.
