[v7] Add strobe duration and hw strobe signal v4l2 ctrl & use it for ov9282

[PATCH v7 06/10] media: i2c: ov9282: add hardware strobe signal v4l2 control

Posted by Richard Leitner 5 months, 1 week ago

Add V4L2_CID_FLASH_HW_STROBE_SIGNAL enable/disable support using the
"strobe output enable" feature of the sensor.

All values are based on the OV9281 datasheet v1.53 (january 2019) and
tested using an ov9281 VisionComponents module.

Please don't do assignments in variable declaration if that involves error
handling.

It's exactly 100 chars wide, so from a policy point of view it should be
fine ;-). But I'm also fine with breaking it to 80 if you prefer?

It would be nice to cache the register value instead of reading it back.
Regmap may help (and then the driver should use the CCI helpers). This
can be done separately.

That's the usual policy in V4L2, yes. 80 columns is the preferred soft
limit.

Currently all set_ctrl calls in the ov9282 driver have this
read/modify/write pattern. As mentioned in the cover letter I'm planning
to migrate to cci helpers in a future series to keep the set smaller.
But if you prefer the migration in this series I can try to rebase on
it?

So I should break this line in this case? Tbh I'm often unsure on
breaking on 80 or 100... Personally 100 is fine for me, but that's
"your" subsystem/driver, so I guess it's your descision ;-)

No, it's fine on top. I ask for enough yak-shaving already :-)

Sakari is even more strict than me about line lengths :-)

It a line is just a couple of charaters about 80 columns and doesn't
have a nice split point I would avoid breaking it as I feel the result
would be less readable.

In this particular case, breaking the line would lead to

	v4l2_ctrl_new_std(ctrl_hdlr, &ov9282_ctrl_ops,
			  V4L2_CID_FLASH_HW_STROBE_SIGNAL, 0, 1, 1, 0);


which I think is OK. It's very subjective of course.

Thanks for the clarification. Sure. That's fine for me.
I will adapt the patch accordingly.
