v4l2_int_device entry is not there when issuing lsmod command (mipi csi2)

[srinivasaporam]

Hi,

We have got IMX6D custom designed board designed based on imx6Q reference board (Wandboard). in custom board we have 512 MB LPDDR2  where as reference board has 1GB/2GB DDR3 RAM.

Now we have connected mipi csi2 camera (Raspi camera (connector is also customized with 15 pin connector)).

When I am running the command for capturing image or video using avconv or gst-launch-1.0 then, image is not being captured.

When iam running the command as :

$ sudo avconv -f video4linux2 -r 30 -s 640x480 -i /dev/video0 out.avi (or)

$ sudo avconv -f video4linux2 -s 640x480 -i /dev/video0 -ss 0:0:2 -frames 1 test.jpg

then it is giving error as ioctl VIDIOC_REQBUFs

and "/dev/video0: No buffer space available"

When we are running this command, we are getting CSI_D0M,CSI_D0P, CSI_D1M, CSI_D1P correctly and laos getting 25 MHz clock from the crystal.

But we are not observing CSI_CLK0M (CN), CSI_CLK0P (CP) are not coming???? what could be the reason.

    $gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device="/dev/video0" num-buffers=1 ! video/x-bayer,width=640,height=480,framerate=1/1 ! bayer2rgb ! videoconvert ! jpegenc ! filesink location=sample_640_480.jpeg

then it is forming sample_640_480.jpeg file but it is not opening.

in all the above commands, when we are entering/running then led on the camera board is glowing and not when terminating the command, then led is going off.

Following are the findings:

1. camera sensor is being detecting in i2c by using i2c-tools (i2cdetect)

Here v4l2_int_device entry is not there.... why v4l2_int_device entry is not there. what could be the problem?????? i have v4l2_int_device.c file and v4l2_int_device.h files. What could be possible error

when iam dumping mipi csi2 regs by using devmem2 tool

How resolve the issues????

Hi Srinivasa

seems v4l2_int_device is loaded at run time, so if some errors

happen it will not load. You can add debug printfs to trace where

problem occurs.

Best regards

igor
