Starfive Camera Subsystem driver
================================
Introduction
------------
This file documents the driver for the Starfive Camera Subsystem found on
Starfive JH7110 SoC. The driver is located under drivers/staging/media/starfive/
camss.
The driver implements V4L2, Media controller and v4l2_subdev interfaces. Camera
sensor using V4L2 subdev interface in the kernel is supported.
The driver has been successfully used on the Gstreamer 1.18.5 with v4l2src
plugin.
Starfive Camera Subsystem hardware
----------------------------------
The Starfive Camera Subsystem hardware consists of::

- MIPI: The MIPI interface, receiving data from a MIPI CSI-2 camera sensor.
- Parallel: The parallel interface, receiving data from a parallel sensor.
- ISP: The ISP, processing raw Bayer data from an image sensor and producing
YUV frames.
Topology
--------
The media controller pipeline graph is as follows:
.. _starfive_camss_graph:
.. kernel-figure:: starfive_camss_graph.dot
:alt: starfive_camss_graph.dot
:align: center
The driver has 2 video devices:
- capture_raw: The capture device, capturing image data directly from a sensor.
- capture_yuv: The capture device, capturing YUV frame data processed by the
ISP module
The driver has 3 subdevices:
- stf_isp: is responsible for all the isp operations, outputs YUV frames.
- cdns_csi2rx: a CSI-2 bridge supporting up to 4 CSI lanes in input, and 4
different pixel streams in output.
- imx219: an image sensor, image data is sent through MIPI CSI-2.
