Subject: [PATCH 00/16] media: i2c: GMSL reliability improvements
Date: Tue, 16 Feb 2021 18:41:30 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210216174146.106639-1-jacopo+renesas@jmondi.org> (raw)
Hello,
this series is based on the most recent media-master with the following
patch applied on top: "media: i2c: rdamc21: Fix warning on u8 cast"
The series contains multiple changes:
- patches from [1-8] contain enhancements to the existing camera module
drivers. The first 7 patches apply to RDACM20 the same style comments
received on RDACM21. Nothing controversial should be there.
A cosmetic fix for the max9286 driver follows.
- patch [9/16] contains a fixup for the RDACM21 camera module that is required
to avoid sporadic failures during the system initialization.
- From patches [10/16] a rework of the GMSL camera initialization procedure
starts with 3 patches that prepare for the most substantial change on the
series.
The current initialization procedure for a GMSL chip looks like
MAX9282 RDACM2x
- probe()
- init()
- mux initialize()
- probe camera 1 - probe()
- init max9271
- init image sensor/ISP
- enable noise immunity
...
- camera 1 bound
- probe camera n - probe()
- init max9271
- init image sensor/ISP
- enable noise immunity
- camera n bound
- all camera have probed
- Increase channel amplitude
This implies that all the initial configuration of the camera modules
which requires several I2C transactions to configure the image sensor and
the embedded ISP are run without noise immunity enabled.
On a test of 50 boot cycle the failure rate for the RDACM21 camera module
is around ~20% which is considerably bad.
This series implements a different mechanism that allows to run the
initialization of the camera module with noise immunity enabled, by splitting
the operations between the usual probe() method and the .init() subdev
core operation [1]
The new procedure looks like
MAX9282 RDACM2x
- probe()
- init()
- mux initialize()
- probe camera 1 - probe()
- init max9271
- enable noise immunity
- camera 1 bound
- increase channel amplitude
- camera 1.init()
- init image sensor/ISP
- restore initial channel amplitude
...
- probe camera n - probe()
- init max9271
- enable noise immunity
- camera n bound
- increase channel amplitude
- camera n.init()
- init image sensor/ISP
- all camera have probed
This allows to run the image sensor/ISP initialization with noise immunity
enabled, as that's the part that requires the most I2C writes, being the
components programmed with register-value tables.
The same boot tests shows a failure percentage of 13%, considerably lower
than the current version. It also allows to increase the I2C bit rate to the
default 339 Kbps for which the setup/hold time are calibrated.
Bouns points: this helps isolating the MAX9271 initialization and will make
it easier making the max9271 a self-contained driver as suggested by Mauro.
[1] All good and glorious BUT: all of this relies on the usage of a subdev
operation that is considered deprecated. Is it an hard limitation ?
GMSL is kind of different beast compared to usual subdevices, so it might
make sense to make an exception in this case ?
Thanks
