Overview

The document below provide basical informations about the rockchip-isp1 driver driver and Image Signal Processing block on Rockchip SoC with examples and details.

Hardware

More detailed information could be found in TRM chapter "Image Signal Processing", "MIPI D-PHY" , but they are only available under NDA.

ISP Details

ISP comprises with:

  • MIPI serial camera interface
  • Image Signal Processing
  • Many Image Enhancement Blocks
  • Crop
  • Resize

Software

Driver

rockchip-isp1 is a V4L2 based driver for Image Signal Processing block on Rockchip SoC. Compared to the earlier driver rk-isp10, it use Media Controller framework, which it's different from plain v4L2. While the plain v4L2 had a view of the device as a plain DMA based image drabber which connects the input data to the host memory, the Media Controller takes into consideration the fact that a typical video device might consist of multiple sub-devices.

Media Controller Basics

Please read below link carefully, especially if you don't have use it before.

Sensor Driver Requirement

The sensor driver should implement controls in the following table. 

Controls Description R/W Needed by
V4L2_CID_VBLANK Vertical blanking. The idle period after every frame during which no image data is produced. The unit of vertical blanking is a line. Every line has length of the image width plus horizontal blanking at the pixel rate defined by V4L2_CID_PIXEL_RATE control in the same sub-device. R Ae
V4L2_CID_HBLANK Horizontal blanking. The idle period after every line of image data during which no image data is produced. The unit of horizontal blanking is pixels. R Ae
V4L2_CID_EXPOSURE Determines the exposure time of the camera sensor. The exposure time is limited by the frame interval. Drivers should interpret the values as 100 µs units, where the value 1 stands for 1/10000th of a second, 10000 for 1 second and 100000 for 10 seconds. R/W Ae
V4L2_CID_ANALOGUE_GAIN Analogue gain is gain affecting all colour components in the pixel matrix. The gain operation is performed in the analogue domain before A/D conversion. R/W Ae
V4L2_CID_DIGITAL_GAIN Digital gain is the value by which all colour components are multiplied by. Typically the digital gain applied is the control value divided by e.g. 0x100, meaning that to get no digital gain the control value needs to be 0x100. The no-gain configuration is also typically the default. R/W Ae
V4L2_CID_PIXEL_RATE Pixel rate in the source pads of the subdev. This control is read-only and its unit is pixels / second. R Ae
V4L2_CID_LINK_FREQ Data bus frequency. Together with the media bus pixel code, bus type (clock cycles per sample), the data bus frequency defines the pixel rate (V4L2_CID_PIXEL_RATE) in the pixel array (or possibly elsewhere, if the device is not an image sensor). The frame rate can be calculated from the pixel clock, image width and height and horizontal and vertical blanking. While the pixel rate control may be defined elsewhere than in the subdev containing the pixel array, the frame rate cannot be obtained from that information. This is because only on the pixel array it can be assumed that the vertical and horizontal blanking information is exact: no other blanking is allowed in the pixel array. The selection of frame rate is performed by selecting the desired horizontal and vertical blanking. The unit of this control is Hz. R mipi-dphy

User applications 

The v4l-utils tool and applications 
The v4l-utils tool is a V4L2 development kit maintained by Linuxtv[1] . It provides a set 
of V4L2 and media framework related tools for configuring V4L2 sub-device properties, 
testing V4L2 devices, and providing development libraries such as libv4l2.so and so on. 
This chapter mainly introduces two command-line tools in v4l-utils: media-ctl and v4l2- 
ctl 
 media-ctl, used to view and configure topology 
 v4l2-ctl, used to configure v4l2 controls, capture frames, set cif, isp, sensor 
parameters 
The format code of different versions of v4l-utils will be different, especially mbus-fmt 
part. The version used in this document is v4l-utils-1.14.1 integrated in Linux SDK.
