Ayee, ok so we have 'half' the driver for IPU3 out of staging. >From my understanding, the IPU3 consists of two components, the CIO2 (CSI2 capture), and the IMGU (the ISP). - drivers/media/pci/intel/ipu3 This is indeed the CIO2 component (config VIDEO_IPU3_CIO2), and that is the part that this bridge relates to, so in fact this cio2-bridge should probably go there indeed. No need to go through staging. The files remaining at: - drivers/staging/media/ipu3 are in fact also for the IPU3 but the ISP component (VIDEO_IPU3_IMGU). I'm sorry for the confusion, I knew that the ISP was still in staging, I hadn't realised the CSI2 receiver (CIO2) was not. >> Hopefully with more users of the IPU3 brought in by this cio2-bridge, >> that will help gather momentum to get the IPU3 developments required >> completed and moved into drivers/media. -- Regards -- Kieran From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Return-Path: X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.4.0 (2014-02-07) on aws-us-west-2-korg-lkml-1.web.codeaurora.org X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-5.1 required=3.0 tests=BAYES_00,DKIM_INVALID, DKIM_SIGNED,HEADER_FROM_DIFFERENT_DOMAINS,MAILING_LIST_MULTI,NICE_REPLY_A, SPF_HELO_NONE,SPF_PASS,URIBL_BLOCKED,USER_AGENT_SANE_1 autolearn=no autolearn_force=no version=3.4.0 Received: from mail.kernel.org (mail.kernel.org [198.145.29.99]) by smtp.lore.kernel.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 56E60C433E2 for ;

Ayee, ok so we have 'half' the driver for IPU3 out of staging. >From my understanding, the IPU3 consists of two components, the CIO2 (CSI2 capture), and the IMGU (the ISP). - drivers/media/pci/intel/ipu3 This is indeed the CIO2 component (config VIDEO_IPU3_CIO2), and that is the part that this bridge relates to, so in fact this cio2-bridge should probably go there indeed. No need to go through staging. The files remaining at: - drivers/staging/media/ipu3 are in fact also for the IPU3 but the ISP component (VIDEO_IPU3_IMGU). I'm sorry for the confusion, I knew that the ISP was still in staging, I hadn't realised the CSI2 receiver (CIO2) was not. >> Hopefully with more users of the IPU3 brought in by this cio2-bridge, >> that will help gather momentum to get the IPU3 developments required >> completed and moved into drivers/media. -- Regards -- Kieran _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@linuxdriverproject.org http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
