Hi Umang and Naush,

Thank you for the patch.

+BCM2835 ISP Driver
+==================
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+The BCM2835 Image Sensor Pipeline (ISP) is a fixed function hardware pipeline
+for performing image processing operations.  Images are fed to the input
+of the ISP through memory frame buffers.  These images may be in various YUV,
+RGB, or Bayer formats.
Does the ISP really support RGB or YUV input images ? Is this supported
by the driver ?
A typical use case would have Bayer images obtained from
+an image sensor by the BCM2835 Unicam peripheral, written to a memory
+frame buffer, and finally fed into the input of the ISP.  Two concurrent output
+images may be generated in YUV or RGB format at different resolutions.
+Statistics output is also generated for Bayer input images.
+
+The bcm2835-isp driver exposes the following media pads as V4L2 device nodes:
This sounds weird. Pads are not video nodes, are they ? Or are those
MMAL pads ?

Is that capture3 ?

Maybe the video nodes should be renamed to make their purpose clearer ?

+Pipeline Configuration

+
+The ISP pipeline can be configure through user-space by calling
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS <VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS>` on the “bcm2835-isp0-output0”
+node with the appropriate parameters as shown in the table below.
