The full patchset doesn't seem to be up yet, but see [1] for the cover letter.Was the entire series copied to the mailing lists, or just selected patches? I only saw 4, 9, 11 and 13-22 via lakml.The whole series was posted to the linux-media ML, see [1]. At the time, none of the linux-media ML archives had the whole series.quoted
In the absence of the other patches, will this solve imx-media binding the internal subdevs of sensor devices to the CSI2 interface?"internal subdevs of sensor devices" ?? That doesn't make any sense.Sorry, but it makes complete sense when you consider that sensor devices may have more than one subdev, but there should be only one that is the "output" to whatever the camera is attached to. The other subdevs are internal to the sensor.
Ah, thanks for the clarification. Yes, by "internal subdevs" I understand what you mean now. The adv748x and smiapp are examples.
subdevs are not purely the remit of SoC drivers.
So there is no binding of internal subdevs to the receiver CSI-2. The receiver CSI-2 subdev will create media links to the subdev that has an externally exposed fwnode endpoint that connects with the CSI-2 sink pad.
