Hi Matt,

Thank you for the patch.

Just looking at the driver name I believe a rename is needed. i2c-polling is a
very generic name and would mislead many people into thinking about an I2C
subsystem core feature instead of a video driver. "video-i2c" is one option,
I'm open to other ideas.

I don't think you implement device tree support, is linux/of.h needed ? Or
maybe you could implement device tree support ;-)

You don't implement any control, you can drop support for control events as
well.

Please sort includes alphabetically, it makes it easier to locate duplicates.

That's not nice, the status should be set through vb2_buffer_done().

You can't transfer data in the buffer_queue handler is that function can't
sleep. Instead, I'm wondering whether it would make sense to perform transfers
in a workqueue, to making timings less dependent on userspace.

The bus_info field should contain information to locate the device in the
system. It correctly starts with I2C:, but should then be followed by the I2C
bus number and the device address.

You can set device_caps in the video_device structure instead, the code will
fill vcap->device_caps and vcap->capabilities for you.

No need for the extra inner parentheses.

The bytesperline and sizeimage values depend on the format. If you make the
format chip-specific, the computation should be generic as well.

It's very hard at this time to know how much genericity should be expected
from similar sensors. Unless you have more information about that, I would be
tempted to make a device-specific driver for now, and then refactor it later
to support more devices if the need arises (and if possible in a clean way).

A get format operation should be allowed even if the queue is busy, only set
format should return -EBUSY.

No need to set the buffer-related .vidioc_* pointers to vb2_ioctl_*
explicitly, the core will use vb2 if the fields are left unset.

Please also set one of V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_SOF or

You should implement a release function and free the data structure there.
Freeing data in the remove operation is a bad idea, as your driver will crash
if the device is unbound from the driver during video streaming.
Unregistration of the v4l2_device instance can also happen in the release
callback. The video_device instance obviously has to be unregistered in the
remove operation as done now.
