1	                              OMAP4 ISS Driver

4	Introduction
5	------------
6	
7	The OMAP44XX family of chips contains the Imaging SubSystem (a.k.a. ISS),
8	Which contains several components that can be categorized in 3 big groups:
9	
10	- Interfaces (2 Interfaces: CSI2-A & CSI2-B/CCP2)
11	- ISP (Image Signal Processor)
12	- SIMCOP (Still Image Coprocessor)
13	
14	For more information, please look in [1] for latest version of:
15		"OMAP4430 Multimedia Device Silicon Revision 2.x"
16	
17	As of Revision AB, the ISS is described in detail in section 8.
18	
19	This driver is supporting _only_ the CSI2-A/B interfaces for now.
20	
21	It makes use of the Media Controller framework [2], and inherited most of the
22	code from OMAP3 ISP driver (found under drivers/media/platform/omap3isp/*),
23	except that it doesn't need an IOMMU now for ISS buffers memory mapping.
24	
25	Supports usage of MMAP buffers only (for now).
