The Intel IPU6 can be found in certain Intel SoCs but not in all SKUs: * Tiger Lake * Jasper Lake * Alder Lake * Raptor Lake * Meteor Lake Intel IPU6 is made up of two components - Input System (ISYS) and Processing System (PSYS). The Input System mainly works as MIPI CSI-2 receiver which receives and processes the image data from the sensors and outputs the frames to memory. There are 2 driver modules - intel-ipu6 and intel-ipu6-isys. intel-ipu6 is an IPU6 common driver which does PCI configuration, firmware loading and parsing, firmware authentication, DMA mapping and IPU-MMU (internal Memory mapping Unit) configuration. intel_ipu6_isys implements V4L2, Media Controller and V4L2 sub-device interfaces. The IPU6 ISYS driver supports camera sensors connected to the IPU6 ISYS through V4L2 sub-device sensor drivers. .. Note:: See Documentation/driver-api/media/drivers/ipu6.rst for more information about the IPU6 hardware. Input system driver =================== The Input System driver mainly configures CSI-2 D-PHY, constructs the firmware stream configuration, sends commands to firmware, gets response from hardware and firmware and then returns buffers to user. The ISYS is represented as several V4L2 sub-devices as well as video nodes. .. kernel-figure:: ipu6_isys_graph.svg :alt: ipu6 isys media graph with multiple streams support IPU6 ISYS media graph with multiple streams support The graph has been produced using the following command: .. code-block:: none fdp -Gsplines=true -Tsvg < dot > dot.svg Capturing frames with IPU6 ISYS ------------------------------- IPU6 ISYS is used to capture frames from the camera sensors connected to the CSI2 ports. The supported input formats of ISYS are listed in table below: .. tabularcolumns:: |p{0.8cm}|p{4.0cm}|p{4.0cm}| .. flat-table:: :header-rows: 1 * - IPU6 ISYS supported input formats * - RGB565, RGB888 * - UYVY8, YUYV8 * - RAW8, RAW10, RAW12 .. _ipu6_isys_capture_examples: Examples ~~~~~~~~ Here is an example of IPU6 ISYS raw capture on Dell XPS 9315 laptop. On this machine, ov01a10 sensor is connected to IPU ISYS CSI-2 port 2, which can generate images at sBGGR10 with resolution 1280x800. Using the media controller APIs, we can configure ov01a10 sensor by media-ctl [#f1]_ and yavta [#f2]_ to transmit frames to IPU6 ISYS. .. code-block:: none # Example 1 capture frame from ov01a10 camera sensor # This example assumes /dev/media0 as the IPU ISYS media device export MDEV=/dev/media0 # Establish the link for the media devices using media-ctl media-ctl -d $MDEV -l "\"ov01a10 3-0036\":0 -> \"Intel IPU6 CSI2 2\":0[1]" # Set the format for the media devices media-ctl -d $MDEV -V "ov01a10:0 [fmt:SBGGR10/1280x800]" media-ctl -d $MDEV -V "Intel IPU6 CSI2 2:0 [fmt:SBGGR10/1280x800]" media-ctl -d $MDEV -V "Intel IPU6 CSI2 2:1 [fmt:SBGGR10/1280x800]" Once the media pipeline is configured, desired sensor specific settings (such as exposure and gain settings) can be set, using the yavta tool. e.g .. code-block:: none # and that ov01a10 sensor is connected to i2c bus 3 with address 0x36 export SDEV=$(media-ctl -d $MDEV -e "ov01a10 3-0036") yavta -w 0x009e0903 400 $SDEV yavta -w 0x009e0913 1000 $SDEV yavta -w 0x009e0911 2000 $SDEV Once the desired sensor settings are set, frame captures can be done as below. e.g .. code-block:: none yavta --data-prefix -u -c10 -n5 -I -s 1280x800 --file=/tmp/frame-#.bin \ -f SBGGR10 $(media-ctl -d $MDEV -e "Intel IPU6 ISYS Capture 0") With the above command, 10 frames are captured at 1280x800 resolution with sBGGR10 format. The captured frames are available as /tmp/frame-#.bin files. Here is another example of IPU6 ISYS RAW and metadata capture from camera sensor ov2740 on Lenovo X1 Yoga laptop. .. code-block:: none media-ctl -l "\"ov2740 14-0036\":0 -> \"Intel IPU6 CSI2 1\":0[1]" media-ctl -l "\"Intel IPU6 CSI2 1\":1 -> \"Intel IPU6 ISYS Capture 0\":0[5]" media-ctl -l "\"Intel IPU6 CSI2 1\":2 -> \"Intel IPU6 ISYS Capture 1\":0[5]" # set routing media-ctl -v -R "\"Intel IPU6 CSI2 1\" [0/0->1/0[1],0/1->2/1[1]]" media-ctl -v "\"Intel IPU6 CSI2 1\":0/0 [fmt:SGRBG10/1932x1092]" media-ctl -v "\"Intel IPU6 CSI2 1\":0/1 [fmt:GENERIC_8/97x1]" media-ctl -v "\"Intel IPU6 CSI2 1\":1/0 [fmt:SGRBG10/1932x1092]" media-ctl -v "\"Intel IPU6 CSI2 1\":2/1 [fmt:GENERIC_8/97x1]" CAPTURE_DEV=$(media-ctl -e "Intel IPU6 ISYS Capture 0") ./yavta --data-prefix -c100 -n5 -I -s1932x1092 --file=/tmp/frame-#.bin \ -f SGRBG10 ${CAPTURE_DEV} CAPTURE_META=$(media-ctl -e "Intel IPU6 ISYS Capture 1") ./yavta --data-prefix -c100 -n5 -I -s97x1 -B meta-capture \ --file=/tmp/meta-#.bin -f GENERIC_8 ${CAPTURE_META} References ========== ..
