Not Able to Capture Still Image With Resolution 4192*3104

Hi,

I am having IMX6 dual lite sabreSD board. I amtrying to capture a still image with resolution 4192 * 3104 but every time I get page allocation error from ipu_csi_enc.c .

Below is the error whic i get:

page allocation failure: order:13, mode:0xd1

ERROR:IPU CSI v4l2 capture: Allocate dummy frame failed.

ERROR: v4l2 capture: mxc_v4l_dqueue timeout enc_counter 0

VIDIOC_DQBUF failed.

I have checked IMX6 application processor reference manual in which it is clearly stated that maximum frame size supported by IPU is 8192 * 4096 pixels, so my requirement is far below than the maximum. So I doubt if there is some limitation in any of the driver related to memory alocation .

Kindly please provide some inputs regarding this.

Hi,

Have you tried with a smaller image size? It seems that the default configuration of the IPU driver accept a maximum screen size of 4096 x 2048. However, you could enlarge the DMA buffers, as explained on the following links:

Sometimes camera can't capture 5M frame · Issue #1 · xhteam/hardware-imx · GitHub

Hope this will be useful for you.
Best regards!
