This patch adds "sync-on-green" property as part of
endpoint properties and also support to parse them in the parser.

Are you sure this is what you need for the TVP7002 chip ?

I think we should differentiate between analog and digital signals and 
the related
device's configuration. AFAIU for the analog part there can be various video
sychronisation methods, i.e. ways in which the synchronisation signals are
transmitted along side the video component (RGB or luma/chroma) signals. 
According
to [1] (presumably not most reliable source of information) there are 
following
methods of transmitting sync signals:

  - Separate sync
  - Composite sync
  - Sync-on-green (SOG)
  - Sync-on-luminance
  - Sync-on-composite

And all these seem to refer to analog video signal.

 From looking at Figure 8 "TVP7002 Application Example" in the TVP7002's 
datasheet
([2], p. 52) and your initial TVP7002 patches it looks like what you 
want is to
specify polarity of the SOGOUT signal, so the processor that receives 
this signal
can properly interpret it, is it correct ?

If so then wouldn't it be more appropriate to define e.g. 'sog-active' 
property
and media bus flags:
	V4L2_MBUS_SYNC_ON_GREEN_ACTIVE_LOW
	V4L2_MBUS_SYNC_ON_GREEN_ACTIVE_HIGH
?

And for synchronisation method on the analog part we could perhaps define
'component-sync' or similar property that would enumerate all possible
synchronisation methods. We might as well use separate boolean properties,
but I'm a bit concerned about the increasing number of properties that need
to be parsed for each parallel video bus "endpoint".

Anyway I'm not sure if we would already have use cases for the 
'component-sync'
property.

I was about to add all these but as per Laurent mentioned we can add this
whenever there is a need of it.

I thought about two possible options:

1. single property 'component-sync' or 'video-sync' that would have values:

#define VIDEO_SEPARATE_SYNC	0x01
#define VIDEO_COMPOSITE_SYNC	0x02
#define VIDEO_SYNC_ON_COMPOSITE	0x04
#define VIDEO_SYNC_ON_GREEN	0x08
#define VIDEO_SYNC_ON_LUMINANCE	0x10

And we could put these definitions into a separate header, e.g.
<dt-bindings/video-interfaces.h>

Then in a device tree source file one could have, e.g.

video-sync = <VIDEO_SYNC_ON_GREEN>;


2. Separate boolean property for each video sync type, e.g.

	"video-composite-sync"
	"video-sync-on-composite"
	"video-sync-on-green"
	"video-sync-on-luminance"

Separate sync, with separate VSYNC, HSYNC lines, would be the default, when
none of the above is specified and 'vsync-active', 'hsync-active' properties
are present.

However, I suppose the better would be to deduce the video synchronisation
method from the sync signal polarity flags. Then, for instance, when an
endpoint node contains "composite-sync-active" property the parser would
determine the "composite sync" synchronisation type is used.

Thus it might make sense to have only following integer properties (added
as needed):

composite-sync-active
sync-on-green-active
sync-on-comp-active
sync-on-luma-active

This would allow to specify polarity of each signal and at the same time
the parsing code could derive synchronisation type. A new field could be
added to struct v4l2_of_parallel_bus, e.g. sync_type and it would be filled
within v4l2_of_parse_endpoint().

What do you think ?


Thanks,
Sylwester

I am OK with this option. and I hope you meant "struct
v4l2_of_bus_parallel" instead
of " struct v4l2_of_parallel_bus" and to fill sync_type within
v4l2_of_parse_parallel_bus()
and not in v4l2_of_parse_endpoint().

My gut feeling is that we should have separate properties for the video sync 
type and the synchronization signals polarities. We could have a chip that 
supports sync-on-green on the analog (input) side and outputs separate hsync 
and vsync signals only on the digital (output) side. There would be no sync-
on-green polarity in that case.

Yes, agreed. I've had some doubts that using single DT property for defining
really 2 distinct H/W properties like this might not be flexible enough.
The option 1. seems most correct then.
