+Amlogic C3 Image Signal Processing (C3ISP) driver
+=================================================
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+This file documents the Amlogic C3ISP driver located under
+drivers/media/platform/amlogic/c3/isp.
+
+The current version of the driver supports the C3ISP found on
+Amlogic C308L processor.
+
+The driver implements V4L2, Media controller and V4L2 subdev interfaces.
+Camera sensor using V4L2 subdev interface in the kernel is supported.
+
+The driver has been tested on AW419-C308L-Socket platform.
+
+Amlogic C3 ISP
+==============
+
+The Camera hardware found on C308L processors and supported by
+the driver consists of:
+
+- 1 MIPI-CSI-2 module: handles the physical layer of the MIPI CSI-2 receiver and
+ receive data from the connected camera sensor.
+- 1 MIPI-ADAPTER module: organize MIPI data to meet ISP input requirements and
+ send MIPI data to ISP.
+- 1 ISP (Image Signal Processing) module: contain a pipeline of image processing
+ hardware blocks. The ISP pipeline contains three resizers at the end each of
+ them connected to a DMA interface which writes the output data to memory.
+
+An high level functional view of the C3 ISP is presented below.::
+
+ +----------+ +-------+
+ | Resizer |--->| WRMIF |
+ +---------+ +------------+ +--------------+ +-------+ |----------+ +-------+
+ | Sensor |--->| MIPI CSI-2 |--->| MIPI ADAPTER |--->| ISP |---|----------+ +-------+
+ +---------+ +------------+ +--------------+ +-------+ | Resizer |--->| WRMIF |
+ +----------+ +-------+
+ |----------+ +-------+
+ | Resizer |--->| WRMIF |
+ +----------+ +-------+
+
+Driver architecture and design
+==============================
+
+With the goal to model the hardware links between the modules and to expose a
+clean, logical and usable interface, the driver is split into the
+following V4L2 sub-devices:
+
+- 1 `c3-mipi-csi2` sub-device - the MIPI CSI-2 receiver
+- 1 `c3-mipi-adapter` sub-device - the MIPI adapter
+- 1 `c3-isp-core` sub-device - the ISP core
+- 3 `c3-isp-resizer` sub-devices - the ISP resizers
+
+The `c3-isp-core` sub-device is linked to 2 video device nodes for statistics
+capture and parameters programming:
+
+- the `c3-isp-stats` capture video device node for statistics capture
+- the `c3-isp-params` output video device for parameters programming
+
+Each `c3-isp-resizer` sub-device is linked to a capture video device node where
+frames are captured from:
+
+- `c3-isp-resizer0` is linked to the `c3-isp-cap0` capture video device
+- `c3-isp-resizer1` is linked to the `c3-isp-cap1` capture video device
+- `c3-isp-resizer2` is linked to the `c3-isp-cap2` capture video device
+
+The media controller pipeline graph is as follows (with connected a
+IMX290 camera sensor):
+
+.. _isp_topology_graph:
+
+.. kernel-figure:: c3-isp.dot
+ :alt: c3-isp.dot
+ :align: center
+
+ Media pipeline topology
+
+Implementation
+==============
+
+Runtime configuration of the ISP hardware is performed on the `c3-isp-params`
+video device node using the :ref:`V4L2_META_FMT_C3ISP_PARAMS
+<v4l2-meta-fmt-c3isp-params>` as data format. The buffer structure is defined by
+:c:type:`c3_isp_params_cfg`.
+
+Statistics are captured from the `c3-isp-stats` video device node using the
+:ref:`V4L2_META_FMT_C3ISP_STATS <v4l2-meta-fmt-c3isp-stats>` data format.
+
+The final picture size and format is configured using the V4L2 video
+capture interface on the `c3-isp-cap[0, 2]` video device nodes.
+
+The Amlogic C3 ISP is supported by `libcamera <https://libcamera.org>`_ with a
+dedicated pipeline handler and algorithms that perform run-time image correction
+and enhancement.
