Camera sensor Continuous stop and start stream issue with Imx8mq

saideepak_r — Thu, 31 Dec 2020 09:35:03 GMT

Hi,

Iam using Imx8mq processor and Raw 8 sensor with custom board.

Issue

In some of the boards after continuous stop and start stream with 10 secs interval in between stop and start stream we are not receiving any frames both in application and driver side. When i probed the mipi signals we getting same signals as in working case. So in working and non working case probed mipi signals remains the same.

Note:

10 Seconds time interval doesn't matter we tested with multiple time interval.

In platform driver side in working case we receiving interrupts in mx6s_csi_irq_handler function.

Debug prints from platform files(mipi_csi2_yav.c and mx6s_capture.c).

Observation

In working case we receiving SOF interrupt then Frame done interrupt in mx6s_csi_irq_handler function but in non working case we didn't receive such interrupts.

Request

Is there any way to debug further and get error messages or error registers values from csi layers. At least to know exact reason for not receiving frames from platform side after continuous stop and start stream.
