Subject: [PATCH v5 1/4] media: v4l: Add helper to get number of active lanes via a pad
Date: Wed, 22 Oct 2025 11:22:25 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251022102228.275627-2-isaac.scott@ideasonboard.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251022102228.275627-1-isaac.scott@ideasonboard.com>
Sometimes, users will not use all of the MIPI CSI 2 lanes available when
connecting to the MIPI CSI receiver of their device. Add a helper
function that checks the mbus_config for the device driver to allow
users to define the number of active data lanes through the
get_mbus_config op.
If the driver does not implement this op, fall back to using the maximum
number of lanes available.
