-Frame size
-----------
-
-There are two distinct ways to configure the frame size produced by camera
-sensors.
-
-Freely configurable camera sensor drivers
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Freely configurable camera sensor drivers expose the device's internal
-processing pipeline as one or more sub-devices with different cropping and
-scaling configurations. The output size of the device is the result of a series
-of cropping and scaling operations from the device's pixel array's size.
-
-An example of such a driver is the CCS driver (see ``drivers/media/i2c/ccs``).
-
-Register list based drivers
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Register list based drivers generally, instead of able to configure the device
-they control based on user requests, are limited to a number of preset
-configurations that combine a number of different parameters that on hardware
-level are independent. How a driver picks such configuration is based on the
-format set on a source pad at the end of the device's internal pipeline.
-
-Most sensor drivers are implemented this way, see e.g.
-``drivers/media/i2c/imx319.c`` for an example.
-
-Frame interval configuration
-----------------------------
-
-There are two different methods for obtaining possibilities for different frame
-intervals as well as configuring the frame interval. Which one to implement
-depends on the type of the device.
-
-Raw camera sensors
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Instead of a high level parameter such as frame interval, the frame interval is
-a result of the configuration of a number of camera sensor implementation
-specific parameters. Luckily, these parameters tend to be the same for more or
-less all modern raw camera sensors.
-
-The frame interval is calculated using the following equation::
-
-	frame interval = (analogue crop width + horizontal blanking) *
-			 (analogue crop height + vertical blanking) / pixel rate
-
-The formula is bus independent and is applicable for raw timing parameters on
-large variety of devices beyond camera sensors. Devices that have no analogue
-crop, use the full source image size, i.e. pixel array size.
-
-Horizontal and vertical blanking are specified by ``V4L2_CID_HBLANK`` and
-``V4L2_CID_VBLANK``, respectively. The unit of the ``V4L2_CID_HBLANK`` control
-is pixels and the unit of the ``V4L2_CID_VBLANK`` is lines. The pixel rate in
-the sensor's **pixel array** is specified by ``V4L2_CID_PIXEL_RATE`` in the same
-sub-device. The unit of that control is pixels per second.
-
-Register list based drivers need to implement read-only sub-device nodes for the
-purpose. Devices that are not register list based need these to configure the
-device's internal processing pipeline.
-
-The first entity in the linear pipeline is the pixel array. The pixel array may
-be followed by other entities that are there to allow configuring binning,
-skipping, scaling or digital crop :ref:`v4l2-subdev-selections`.
-
-USB cameras etc. devices
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-USB video class hardware, as well as many cameras offering a similar higher
-level interface natively, generally use the concept of frame interval (or frame
-rate) on device level in firmware or hardware. This means lower level controls
-implemented by raw cameras may not be used on uAPI (or even kAPI) to control the
-frame interval on these devices.
-
 Power management
 ----------------
 
-Always use runtime PM to manage the power states of your device. Camera sensor
-drivers are in no way special in this respect: they are responsible for
-controlling the power state of the device they otherwise control as well. In
-general, the device must be powered on at least when its registers are being
-accessed and when it is streaming.
-
-Existing camera sensor drivers may rely on the old
-struct v4l2_subdev_core_ops->s_power() callback for bridge or ISP drivers to
-manage their power state. This is however **deprecated**. If you feel you need
-to begin calling an s_power from an ISP or a bridge driver, instead please add
-runtime PM support to the sensor driver you are using. Likewise, new drivers
-should not use s_power.
-
-Please see examples in e.g. ``drivers/media/i2c/ov8856.c`` and
-``drivers/media/i2c/ccs/ccs-core.c``. The two drivers work in both ACPI
-and DT based systems.
+Camera sensors are used in conjunction with other devices to form a camera
+pipeline. They must obey the rules listed herein to ensure coherent power
+management over the pipeline.
+
+Camera sensor drivers are responsible for controlling the power state of the
+device they otherwise control as well. They shall use runtime PM to manage
+power states. Runtime PM shall be enabled at probe time and disabled at remove
+time. Drivers should enable runtime PM autosuspend.
+
+The runtime PM handlers shall handle clocks, regulators, GPIOs, and other
+system resources required to power the sensor up and down. For drivers that
+don't use any of those resources (such as drivers that support ACPI systems
+only), the runtime PM handlers may be left unimplemented.
+
+In general, the device shall be powered on at least when its registers are
+being accessed and when it is streaming. Drivers should use
+``pm_runtime_resume_and_get()`` when starting streaming and
+``pm_runtime_put()`` or ``pm_runtime_put_autosuspend()`` when stopping
+streaming. They may power the device up at probe time (for example to read
+identification registers), but should not keep it powered unconditionally after
+probe.
+
+At system suspend time, the whole camera pipeline must stop streaming, and
+restart when the system is resumed. This requires coordination between the
+camera sensor and the rest of the camera pipeline. Bridge drivers are
+responsible for this coordination, and instruct camera sensors to stop and
+restart streaming by calling the appropriate subdev operations
+(``.s_stream()``, ``.enable_streams()`` or ``.disable_streams()``). Camera
+sensor drivers shall therefore **not** keep track of the streaming state to
+stop streaming in the PM suspend handler and restart it in the resume handler.
+Drivers should in general not implement the system PM handlers.
+
+Camera sensor drivers shall **not** implement the subdev ``.s_power()``
+operation, as it is deprecated. While this operation is implemented in some
+existing drivers as they predate the deprecation, new drivers shall use runtime
+PM instead. If you feel you need to begin calling ``.s_power()`` from an ISP or
+a bridge driver, instead add runtime PM support to the sensor driver you are
+using and drop its ``.s_power()`` handler.

-Videobuf Framework
-==================
-
-Author: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
-
-Current as of 2.6.33
-
-.. note::
-
-   The videobuf framework was deprecated in favor of videobuf2. Shouldn't
-   be used on new drivers.
-
-Introduction
-------------
-
-The videobuf layer functions as a sort of glue layer between a V4L2 driver
-and user space.  It handles the allocation and management of buffers for
-the storage of video frames.  There is a set of functions which can be used
-to implement many of the standard POSIX I/O system calls, including read(),
-poll(), and, happily, mmap().  Another set of functions can be used to
-implement the bulk of the V4L2 ioctl() calls related to streaming I/O,
-including buffer allocation, queueing and dequeueing, and streaming
-control.  Using videobuf imposes a few design decisions on the driver
-author, but the payback comes in the form of reduced code in the driver and
-a consistent implementation of the V4L2 user-space API.
-
-Buffer types
-------------
-
-Not all video devices use the same kind of buffers.  In fact, there are (at
-least) three common variations:
-
- - Buffers which are scattered in both the physical and (kernel) virtual
-   address spaces.  (Almost) all user-space buffers are like this, but it
-   makes great sense to allocate kernel-space buffers this way as well when
-   it is possible.  Unfortunately, it is not always possible; working with
-   this kind of buffer normally requires hardware which can do
-   scatter/gather DMA operations.
-
- - Buffers which are physically scattered, but which are virtually
-   contiguous; buffers allocated with vmalloc(), in other words.  These
-   buffers are just as hard to use for DMA operations, but they can be
-   useful in situations where DMA is not available but virtually-contiguous
-   buffers are convenient.
-
- - Buffers which are physically contiguous.  Allocation of this kind of
-   buffer can be unreliable on fragmented systems, but simpler DMA
-   controllers cannot deal with anything else.
-
-Videobuf can work with all three types of buffers, but the driver author
-must pick one at the outset and design the driver around that decision.
-
-[It's worth noting that there's a fourth kind of buffer: "overlay" buffers
-which are located within the system's video memory.  The overlay
-functionality is considered to be deprecated for most use, but it still
-shows up occasionally in system-on-chip drivers where the performance
-benefits merit the use of this technique.  Overlay buffers can be handled
-as a form of scattered buffer, but there are very few implementations in
-the kernel and a description of this technique is currently beyond the
-scope of this document.]
-
-Data structures, callbacks, and initialization
-----------------------------------------------
-
-Depending on which type of buffers are being used, the driver should
-include one of the following files:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    <media/videobuf-dma-sg.h>		/* Physically scattered */
-    <media/videobuf-vmalloc.h>		/* vmalloc() buffers	*/
-    <media/videobuf-dma-contig.h>	/* Physically contiguous */
-
-The driver's data structure describing a V4L2 device should include a
-struct videobuf_queue instance for the management of the buffer queue,
-along with a list_head for the queue of available buffers.  There will also
-need to be an interrupt-safe spinlock which is used to protect (at least)
-the queue.
-
-The next step is to write four simple callbacks to help videobuf deal with
-the management of buffers:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    struct videobuf_queue_ops {
-	int (*buf_setup)(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-			 unsigned int *count, unsigned int *size);
-	int (*buf_prepare)(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-			   struct videobuf_buffer *vb,
-			   enum v4l2_field field);
-	void (*buf_queue)(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-			  struct videobuf_buffer *vb);
-	void (*buf_release)(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-			    struct videobuf_buffer *vb);
-    };
-
-buf_setup() is called early in the I/O process, when streaming is being
-initiated; its purpose is to tell videobuf about the I/O stream.  The count
-parameter will be a suggested number of buffers to use; the driver should
-check it for rationality and adjust it if need be.  As a practical rule, a
-minimum of two buffers are needed for proper streaming, and there is
-usually a maximum (which cannot exceed 32) which makes sense for each
-device.  The size parameter should be set to the expected (maximum) size
-for each frame of data.
-
-Each buffer (in the form of a struct videobuf_buffer pointer) will be
-passed to buf_prepare(), which should set the buffer's size, width, height,
-and field fields properly.  If the buffer's state field is
-VIDEOBUF_NEEDS_INIT, the driver should pass it to:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    int videobuf_iolock(struct videobuf_queue* q, struct videobuf_buffer *vb,
-			struct v4l2_framebuffer *fbuf);
-
-Among other things, this call will usually allocate memory for the buffer.
-Finally, the buf_prepare() function should set the buffer's state to
-VIDEOBUF_PREPARED.
-
-When a buffer is queued for I/O, it is passed to buf_queue(), which should
-put it onto the driver's list of available buffers and set its state to
-VIDEOBUF_QUEUED.  Note that this function is called with the queue spinlock
-held; if it tries to acquire it as well things will come to a screeching
-halt.  Yes, this is the voice of experience.  Note also that videobuf may
-wait on the first buffer in the queue; placing other buffers in front of it
-could again gum up the works.  So use list_add_tail() to enqueue buffers.
-
-Finally, buf_release() is called when a buffer is no longer intended to be
-used.  The driver should ensure that there is no I/O active on the buffer,
-then pass it to the appropriate free routine(s):
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    /* Scatter/gather drivers */
-    int videobuf_dma_unmap(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-			   struct videobuf_dmabuf *dma);
-    int videobuf_dma_free(struct videobuf_dmabuf *dma);
-
-    /* vmalloc drivers */
-    void videobuf_vmalloc_free (struct videobuf_buffer *buf);
-
-    /* Contiguous drivers */
-    void videobuf_dma_contig_free(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-				  struct videobuf_buffer *buf);
-
-One way to ensure that a buffer is no longer under I/O is to pass it to:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    int videobuf_waiton(struct videobuf_buffer *vb, int non_blocking, int intr);
-
-Here, vb is the buffer, non_blocking indicates whether non-blocking I/O
-should be used (it should be zero in the buf_release() case), and intr
-controls whether an interruptible wait is used.
-
-File operations
----------------
-
-At this point, much of the work is done; much of the rest is slipping
-videobuf calls into the implementation of the other driver callbacks.  The
-first step is in the open() function, which must initialize the
-videobuf queue.  The function to use depends on the type of buffer used:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    void videobuf_queue_sg_init(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-				struct videobuf_queue_ops *ops,
-				struct device *dev,
-				spinlock_t *irqlock,
-				enum v4l2_buf_type type,
-				enum v4l2_field field,
-				unsigned int msize,
-				void *priv);
-
-    void videobuf_queue_vmalloc_init(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-				struct videobuf_queue_ops *ops,
-				struct device *dev,
-				spinlock_t *irqlock,
-				enum v4l2_buf_type type,
-				enum v4l2_field field,
-				unsigned int msize,
-				void *priv);
-
-    void videobuf_queue_dma_contig_init(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-				       struct videobuf_queue_ops *ops,
-				       struct device *dev,
-				       spinlock_t *irqlock,
-				       enum v4l2_buf_type type,
-				       enum v4l2_field field,
-				       unsigned int msize,
-				       void *priv);
-
-In each case, the parameters are the same: q is the queue structure for the
-device, ops is the set of callbacks as described above, dev is the device
-structure for this video device, irqlock is an interrupt-safe spinlock to
-protect access to the data structures, type is the buffer type used by the
-device (cameras will use V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE, for example), field
-describes which field is being captured (often V4L2_FIELD_NONE for
-progressive devices), msize is the size of any containing structure used
-around struct videobuf_buffer, and priv is a private data pointer which
-shows up in the priv_data field of struct videobuf_queue.  Note that these
-are void functions which, evidently, are immune to failure.
-
-V4L2 capture drivers can be written to support either of two APIs: the
-read() system call and the rather more complicated streaming mechanism.  As
-a general rule, it is necessary to support both to ensure that all
-applications have a chance of working with the device.  Videobuf makes it
-easy to do that with the same code.  To implement read(), the driver need
-only make a call to one of:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    ssize_t videobuf_read_one(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-			      char __user *data, size_t count,
-			      loff_t *ppos, int nonblocking);
-
-    ssize_t videobuf_read_stream(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-				 char __user *data, size_t count,
-				 loff_t *ppos, int vbihack, int nonblocking);
-
-Either one of these functions will read frame data into data, returning the
-amount actually read; the difference is that videobuf_read_one() will only
-read a single frame, while videobuf_read_stream() will read multiple frames
-if they are needed to satisfy the count requested by the application.  A
-typical driver read() implementation will start the capture engine, call
-one of the above functions, then stop the engine before returning (though a
-smarter implementation might leave the engine running for a little while in
-anticipation of another read() call happening in the near future).
-
-The poll() function can usually be implemented with a direct call to:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    unsigned int videobuf_poll_stream(struct file *file,
-				      struct videobuf_queue *q,
-				      poll_table *wait);
-
-Note that the actual wait queue eventually used will be the one associated
-with the first available buffer.
-
-When streaming I/O is done to kernel-space buffers, the driver must support
-the mmap() system call to enable user space to access the data.  In many
-V4L2 drivers, the often-complex mmap() implementation simplifies to a
-single call to:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    int videobuf_mmap_mapper(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-			     struct vm_area_struct *vma);
-
-Everything else is handled by the videobuf code.
-
-The release() function requires two separate videobuf calls:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    void videobuf_stop(struct videobuf_queue *q);
-    int videobuf_mmap_free(struct videobuf_queue *q);
-
-The call to videobuf_stop() terminates any I/O in progress - though it is
-still up to the driver to stop the capture engine.  The call to
-videobuf_mmap_free() will ensure that all buffers have been unmapped; if
-so, they will all be passed to the buf_release() callback.  If buffers
-remain mapped, videobuf_mmap_free() returns an error code instead.  The
-purpose is clearly to cause the closing of the file descriptor to fail if
-buffers are still mapped, but every driver in the 2.6.32 kernel cheerfully
-ignores its return value.
-
-ioctl() operations
-------------------
-
-The V4L2 API includes a very long list of driver callbacks to respond to
-the many ioctl() commands made available to user space.  A number of these
-- those associated with streaming I/O - turn almost directly into videobuf
-calls.  The relevant helper functions are:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    int videobuf_reqbufs(struct videobuf_queue *q,
-			 struct v4l2_requestbuffers *req);
-    int videobuf_querybuf(struct videobuf_queue *q, struct v4l2_buffer *b);
-    int videobuf_qbuf(struct videobuf_queue *q, struct v4l2_buffer *b);
-    int videobuf_dqbuf(struct videobuf_queue *q, struct v4l2_buffer *b,
-		       int nonblocking);
-    int videobuf_streamon(struct videobuf_queue *q);
-    int videobuf_streamoff(struct videobuf_queue *q);
-
-So, for example, a VIDIOC_REQBUFS call turns into a call to the driver's
-vidioc_reqbufs() callback which, in turn, usually only needs to locate the
-proper struct videobuf_queue pointer and pass it to videobuf_reqbufs().
-These support functions can replace a great deal of buffer management
-boilerplate in a lot of V4L2 drivers.
-
-The vidioc_streamon() and vidioc_streamoff() functions will be a bit more
-complex, of course, since they will also need to deal with starting and
-stopping the capture engine.
-
-Buffer allocation
------------------
-
-Thus far, we have talked about buffers, but have not looked at how they are
-allocated.  The scatter/gather case is the most complex on this front.  For
-allocation, the driver can leave buffer allocation entirely up to the
-videobuf layer; in this case, buffers will be allocated as anonymous
-user-space pages and will be very scattered indeed.  If the application is
-using user-space buffers, no allocation is needed; the videobuf layer will
-take care of calling get_user_pages() and filling in the scatterlist array.
-
-If the driver needs to do its own memory allocation, it should be done in
-the vidioc_reqbufs() function, *after* calling videobuf_reqbufs().  The
-first step is a call to:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    struct videobuf_dmabuf *videobuf_to_dma(struct videobuf_buffer *buf);
-
-The returned videobuf_dmabuf structure (defined in
-<media/videobuf-dma-sg.h>) includes a couple of relevant fields:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    struct scatterlist  *sglist;
-    int                 sglen;
-
-The driver must allocate an appropriately-sized scatterlist array and
-populate it with pointers to the pieces of the allocated buffer; sglen
-should be set to the length of the array.
-
-Drivers using the vmalloc() method need not (and cannot) concern themselves
-with buffer allocation at all; videobuf will handle those details.  The
-same is normally true of contiguous-DMA drivers as well; videobuf will
-allocate the buffers (with dma_alloc_coherent()) when it sees fit.  That
-means that these drivers may be trying to do high-order allocations at any
-time, an operation which is not always guaranteed to work.  Some drivers
-play tricks by allocating DMA space at system boot time; videobuf does not
-currently play well with those drivers.
-
-As of 2.6.31, contiguous-DMA drivers can work with a user-supplied buffer,
-as long as that buffer is physically contiguous.  Normal user-space
-allocations will not meet that criterion, but buffers obtained from other
-kernel drivers, or those contained within huge pages, will work with these
-drivers.
-
-Filling the buffers
--------------------
-
-The final part of a videobuf implementation has no direct callback - it's
-the portion of the code which actually puts frame data into the buffers,
-usually in response to interrupts from the device.  For all types of
-drivers, this process works approximately as follows:
-
- - Obtain the next available buffer and make sure that somebody is actually
-   waiting for it.
-
- - Get a pointer to the memory and put video data there.
-
- - Mark the buffer as done and wake up the process waiting for it.
-
-Step (1) above is done by looking at the driver-managed list_head structure
-- the one which is filled in the buf_queue() callback.  Because starting
-the engine and enqueueing buffers are done in separate steps, it's possible
-for the engine to be running without any buffers available - in the
-vmalloc() case especially.  So the driver should be prepared for the list
-to be empty.  It is equally possible that nobody is yet interested in the
-buffer; the driver should not remove it from the list or fill it until a
-process is waiting on it.  That test can be done by examining the buffer's
-done field (a wait_queue_head_t structure) with waitqueue_active().
-
-A buffer's state should be set to VIDEOBUF_ACTIVE before being mapped for
-DMA; that ensures that the videobuf layer will not try to do anything with
-it while the device is transferring data.
-
-For scatter/gather drivers, the needed memory pointers will be found in the
-scatterlist structure described above.  Drivers using the vmalloc() method
-can get a memory pointer with:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    void *videobuf_to_vmalloc(struct videobuf_buffer *buf);
-
-For contiguous DMA drivers, the function to use is:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    dma_addr_t videobuf_to_dma_contig(struct videobuf_buffer *buf);
-
-The contiguous DMA API goes out of its way to hide the kernel-space address
-of the DMA buffer from drivers.
-
-The final step is to set the size field of the relevant videobuf_buffer
-structure to the actual size of the captured image, set state to
-VIDEOBUF_DONE, then call wake_up() on the done queue.  At this point, the
-buffer is owned by the videobuf layer and the driver should not touch it
-again.
-
-Developers who are interested in more information can go into the relevant
-header files; there are a few low-level functions declared there which have
-not been talked about here.  Note also that all of these calls are exported
-GPL-only, so they will not be available to non-GPL kernel modules.
