+Visconti Video Input Interface (VIIF) Driver
+============================================
+
+Overview
+========
+
+The Visconti VIIF Hardware
+--------------------------
+
+The Visconti Video Input Interface (VIIF) hardware is a proprietary videocapture device of Toshiba.
+Following function modules are integrated:
+
+* MIPI CSI2 receiver (CSI2RX)
+* L1 Image Signal Processor (L1ISP)
+
+ * Correction, enhancement, adjustment on RAW pictures.
+
+* L2 Image Signal Processor (L2ISP)
+
+ * Lens distortion correction
+ * Scaling
+ * Cropping
+
+* Video DMAC
+
+ * format picture (RGB, YUV, Grayscale, ...)
+ * write picture into DRAM
+
+Visconti5 SoC has two VIIF hardware instances.
+
+software architecture
+---------------------
+
+The Visconti VIIF driver is composed of following components:
+
+* (image sensor driver)
+* Visconti ISP subdevice driver
+
+ * corresponding to CSI2RX, L1ISP, L2ISP (Lens distortion correction, Scaling)
+
+* Visconti Capture V4L2 device driver
+
+ * corresponding to L2ISP (Cropping) and Video DMAC
+ * multiple output videobuf queues
+
+ * main path0 (RGB, YUV, Grayscale, ...)
+ * main path1 (RGB, YUV, Grayscale, ...)
+ * sub path (RAW picture)
+
+::
+
+ +-----------+ +------------------------+ +-------------------------+
+ | Sensor | | ISP | | Capture MAIN PATH0 |
+ | subdevice | ---- | subdevice | --+-- | V4L2 device |
+ | (IMX219) | | (CSI2RX, L1ISP, L2ISP) | | | (L2ISP crop, VideoDMAC) |
+ +-----------+ +------------------------+ | +-------------------------+
+ |
+ | +-------------------------+
+ | | Capture MAIN PATH1 |
+ +-- | V4L2 device |
+ | | (L2ISP crop, VideoDMAC) |
+ | +-------------------------+
+ |
+ | +-------------------------+
+ | | Capture SUB PATH |
+ +-- | V4L2 device |
+ | (L2ISP crop, VideoDMAC) |
+ +-------------------------+
+
+
+The VIIF driver provides following device nodes for Visconti5 SoC:
+
+* VIIF0
+
+ * /dev/media0
+ * /dev/video0 (main path0)
+ * /dev/video1 (main path1)
+ * /dev/video2 (sub path)
+
+* VIIF1
+
+ * /dev/media1
+ * /dev/video3
+ * /dev/video4
+ * /dev/video5
+
+Use of coherent memory
+----------------------
+
+Visconti5 SoC has two independent DDR SDRAM controllers.
+Each controller is mapped to 36bit address space.
+
+Accelerator bus masters have two paths to access memory;
+one is directly connected to SDRAM controller,
+the another is connected via a cache coherency bus
+which keeps coherency among CPUs.
+
+From acclerators and CPUs, the address map is following:
+
+* 0x0_8000_0000 DDR0 direct access
+* 0x4_8000_0000 DDR0 coherency bus
+* 0x8_8000_0000 DDR1 direct access
+* 0xC_8000_0000 DDR1 coherency bus
+
+The base address can be specified with "memory" and "reserved-memory" elements
+in a device tree description.
+It's not recommended to mix direct address and coherent address.
+
+The Visconti5 VIIF driver always use only direct address to configure Video DMACs of the hardware.
+This design is to avoid great performance loss at coherency bus caused by massive memory access.
+You should not put the dma_coherent attribute to viif element in device tree.
+Cache operations are done automatically by videobuf2 driver.
+
+Tested environment
+------------------
+
+The Visconti VIIF driver was tested with following items:
+
+* IMX219 image sensor
+* IMX335 image sensor
+* TC358743 HDMI to MIPI CSI2 converter
