There is already a patch reading the ID register at [1]. This also reads the ID register. But I don't have any documentation regarding that register, neither address nor values definitions. If there is known information about that I would prefer reading the ID and compare it to expected values.

Thanks for the link - it seems like Laurent has dropped the patch for the more recent kernel versions on their GitLab. This was also my initial intention, but similar to you, I don't have a docu describing this register, so I am not sure where the info is coming from and if it really contains the identification/type info. Probably Laurent has more infos on that.

Sure - I can drop the first patch and check if it contains a "1" (standby). Probably we learn more about the CHIP_ID, then I can switch to it instead.

It was a patch that I wrote as a test, and I decided not to upstream it as it had limited value to me. The downside with reading registers at probe time is that you have to power up the sensor. This can have undesired side effects, such as flashing a privacy LED on at boot time in devices that have one. There's also the increase in boot time due to the power up sequence, which one may want to avoid. The imx290 driver already powers up the device unconditionally at probe time, so reading the version register wouldn't be much of an issue I suppose. I would be fine merging that patch. > This was also my initial intention, but similar to you, I don't have a > docu describing this register, so I am not sure where the info is coming > from and if it really contains the identification/type info. Probably > Laurent has more infos on that. That's a good question. I don't see a mention of that register in the IMX290 datasheet I've found online (https://static6.arrow.com/aropdfconversion/c0c7efde6571c768020a72f59b226308b9669e45/sony_imx290lqr-c_datasheet.pdf). Looking at the git history, the IMX290_CHIP_ID register macro was introduced in an unrelated commit, without an explanation. I don't recall where it comes from, but I don't think I've added it randomly. It may have come from an out-of-tree driver. I don't have an IMX290 plugged in at the moment, what's the value of the register ? > > [1] https://gitlab.com/ideasonboard/nxp/linux/-/commit/85ce725f1de7c16133bfb92b2ab0d3d84efcdb47 > > > > > Signed-off-by: Benjamin Bara <benjamin.bara@skidata.com> > > > --- > > > drivers/media/i2c/imx290.c | 5 +++++ > > > 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) > > > > > > diff --git a/drivers/media/i2c/imx290.c b/drivers/media/i2c/imx290.c > > > index 4150e6e4b9a6..a86076e42a36 100644 > > > --- a/drivers/media/i2c/imx290.c > > > +++ b/drivers/media/i2c/imx290.c > > > @@ -1580,6 +1580,11 @@ static int imx290_probe(struct i2c_client *client) > > > pm_runtime_set_autosuspend_delay(dev, 1000); > > > pm_runtime_use_autosuspend(dev); > > > > > > + /* Make sure the sensor is available before V4L2 subdev init. */ > > > + ret = cci_read(imx290->regmap, IMX290_STANDBY, NULL, NULL); > > > + if (ret) > > > + goto err_pm; > > > + > > > /* Initialize the V4L2 subdev. */ > > > ret = imx290_subdev_init(imx290); > > > if (ret)

Dumping all registers (8-Bit reads) from 0x3001 till 0x3480 only has a few non-zero registers: > # cat /sys/kernel/debug/regmap/3-001a/range > 3000-3480 > # cat /sys/kernel/debug/regmap/3-001a/registers | grep -v ": 00" > 3000: 01 > 3020: 01 > 303c: 08 > 303e: 38 > 303f: 04 > 3040: 08 > 3042: 80 > 3043: 07 > 319a: d0 > 319b: 07 > 3418: 38 > 3419: 04 > 3472: 80 > 3473: 07 Note I am on a Vision Components imx327, which might block some reads. Laurent is also aware of that behaviour. But maybe this list gives an indicator. Best regards, Alexander

Currently, the V4L2 subdevice is also created when the device is not available/connected. In this case, dmesg shows the following: [ 10.419510] imx290 7-001a: Error writing reg 0x301c: -6 [ 10.428981] imx290 7-001a: Error writing reg 0x3020: -6 [ 10.442712] imx290 7-001a: Error writing reg 0x3018: -6 [ 10.454018] imx290 7-001a: Error writing reg 0x3020: -6 which seems to come from imx290_ctrl_update() after the subdev init is finished. However, as the errors are ignored, the subdev is initialized but simply does not work. From userspace perspective, there is no visible difference between a working and not-working subdevice (except when trying it out or watching for the error message). This commit adds a simple availability check before starting with the subdev initialization to error out instead.
