Hi,

Sorry for chiming in so late.

The Allwinner A10 CMOS Sensor Interface is a camera capture interface also
used in later (A10s, A13, A20, R8 and GR8) SoCs.

On some SoCs, like the A10, there's multiple instances of that controller,
with one instance supporting more channels and having an ISP.

CSI0 on the A10 has an ISP. Do we know if the one in the A20 does
as well? It certainly doesn't say so in the user manual. If not,
then we can't claim that A20 CSI0 is compatible with A10 CSI0.

I doubt this actually is a module clock. Based on the usage in your
device tree patch, and the csi driver in the old linux-sunxi kernel,
the clock rate is set to 24 MHz, or whatever the sensor requires for
MCLK.
I'm working on adding support for this on the R40, and it seems with
this SoC the picture is much clearer. It has the same CSI interface
block, but the CCU has the clocks correctly named. We have:

  - CSI_MCLK0
  - CSI_MCLK1
  - CSI_SCLK

in addition to the bus clocks.

The CSI section also explains the clock signals:

    6.1.3.2. Clock Sources
    Two Clocks need to be configured for CSI controller. CSI0/1_MCLK
    provides the master clock for sensor and other devices. CSI_SCLK
    is the top clock for the whole CSI module.

So it would seem the ISP clock we currently have in the DT is simply
the module clock shared by all CSI-related hardware blocks, and the
module clock is bogus.
I don't think it is. It looks like there's no ISP in the R40 CSI
controllers, so that would mean that we don't have an ISP clock, and
the SCLK is the module clock.

Does that make sense?
Right. That's another way to put it. The point is I believe the
CSI[01]_CLK clocks on the A10/A20 are simply the MCLK outputs.
Looking at the Allwinner BSP again, it looks like you're right. I'll
send some patches to remove that clock from the binding.

Thanks!
Maxime
