Description is a bit moot when you have the clock name and there's only
one. No harm done I suppose.

Could style this as enum: [0, 180], but I don't mind which you do.

Label does not seem to be used & the generic node name should probably
be "camera", no?

Ditto here, drop the unused label?

Otherwise, looks grand to me.

I'd also drop this as you have a single clock only: it's redundant.

The driver can know this, no need to have it in DT, i.e. please drop it.

The name is very generic. There are Alvium camera modules that have a
GMSL or FPD-Link interface, and I'm pretty sure those will require a
different driver. I would add module-specific compatible strings (e.g.
"alliedvision,alvium-1500c", ...) here, with a generic fallback.
"alliedvision,alvium" isn't good as it won't cover GMSL or FPD-Link,
maybe "alliedvision,alvium-csi2" would be an option.

Reading the Alvium CSI-2 Cameras User Guide, I don't see any powerdown
or reset pin on the 22-pin connector. Am I missing something ? There are
however two GPIOs (in addition to the I2C signals that are also
documented as GPIOs), do you plan to support those ?

Add "-us" to the property name to indicate the unit.

This is a vendor-specific property, and should thus have a vendor
prefix.

A longer description is needed, from that single line I have no idea
what the property does exactly.

Why is the rotation restricted to 0 or 180 ? Someone could mount the
module with  90 degrees rotation, shouldn't the DT bindings allow
describing that ?

You need a property for the vcc-ext-in supply.

The "alliedvision" prefix is missing from
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/vendor-prefixes.yaml.

I'd drop pinctrl, it makes the example longer without adding much value.

Actually, "alvium-1500c" as a specific compatible string won't do. You
need the exact model in the compatible string, otherwise it won't be
possible for the driver to handle device-specific configuration (for
instance accessing registers of the camera sensor for fine-grained
configuration). I would thus recommend using "alliedvision,alvium-1500c"
and "alliedvision,alvium-1800c" as generic fallbacks, along compatible
strings that include the exact device model.

For now this property is unused.

What about using: "alvium: camera@3c {" ?
Like in some .yaml of ov sensors?

Then you suggest also to drop devm_clk_get(dev, "xclk");
into the driver code and use devm_clk_get(&pdev->dev, NULL);
right?

Actually, I don't see any clock input pin in the 22-pins FPC connector.
Are you sure the camera module needs an external clock ?

You are completely right I will drop rst and pwdn pins.
About 2 gpios, we don't use those for now.

The 22-pin connector has power supply pins, you need a corresponding
-supply property in DT to reference the regulator that provides the
supply (and you need to handle it in the driver too).

Please apply all my comments from v1. I don't see improvements.

Agree with alliedvision,alvium-csi2 and thanks for your suggestion.
In my opinion we don’t need names for 1500c and 
others because the same driver can drive all the alvium models.
Alvium is taking care of different sensor abstractions.

I test with this driver with the following models:

 - 1800 C-1240c
 - 1800 C-040c
 - 1500 C-500

What do you think about?

Thanks,
Tommaso

As far as I understand, the camera modules allow accessing sensors
registers from the host (through the ISP) for fine-grained
configuration. Even if that's not implemented in the driver at the
moment, I think it's an important feature to eventually support, and it
will require a way for the system to identify the camera module
precisely, to know which sensor the module uses. That's why I would like
that information to be available in DT, in the form of a compatible
string. For instance,

	compatible = "alliedvision,alvium-1500c-1240c",
		     "alliedvision,alvium-1500c";

The driver will only need DT match entries for
"alliedvision,alvium-1500c" and "alliedvision,alvium-1800c".

Thanks for your feedback.

Some clarification:

The Alvium doesn't allow direct access on the sensor.
Alvium hides the particular sensor totally.

For this reason I would prefer to keep generic
"alvium-csi2" name.

What do you think?

Tommaso

I think I got misled by the "Direct Register Access (DRA) to control the
cameras via registers for advanced users" mention on the Allied Vision
website, and thought direct register access to the sensor was possible.

Given that the camera has device identification registers, that should
be OK.
