Re: [PATCH RFC 0/4] V4L2: Vendor specific media bus formats/ frame size control

Hello,

This patch series introduces new image source class control - V4L2_CID_FRAMESIZE
and vendor or device specific media bus format section.

There was already a discussion WRT handling interleaved image data [1].
I'm not terribly happy with those vendor specific media bus formats but I
couldn't find better solution that would comply with the V4L2 API concepts
and would work reliably.

What about Sakari's "Frame format descriptors" RFC[1] that would allow to
describe arbitrary pixel code combinations and provide required information
(virtual channel and data type) to the CSI receiver driver for configuring the
hardware?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Nicolas
