--- Begin Message ---Source: linux Version: 7.1.12-1 Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected] User: [email protected] Usertags: amd64 Dear Maintainer, The built-in camera of the MSI Prestige 13 AI+ Evo A2VMG (Lunar Lake; Intel IPU7 + OmniVision OV5675 sensor behind a TI TPS68470 PMIC) does not work with the Debian amd64 kernel, because four Kconfig symbols the platform needs are not enabled on amd64: # CONFIG_VIDEO_OV5675 is not set # CONFIG_GPIO_TPS68470 is not set # CONFIG_REGULATOR_TPS68470 is not set # CONFIG_COMMON_CLK_TPS68470 is not set CONFIG_VIDEO_OV5675 is already enabled on arm64 (debian/config/arm64/config:1146: CONFIG_VIDEO_OV5675=m), so for that symbol this is only an amd64 gap - and amd64 is where the sensor is actually used, by Intel IPU6/IPU7 laptops. All four are tristate and their dependencies are already met by the existing amd64 config (CONFIG_INTEL_SKL_INT3472=m, CONFIG_I2C=y), so they can be enabled as modules with no further changes: drivers/gpio/Kconfig config GPIO_TPS68470 depends on INTEL_SKL_INT3472 drivers/regulator/Kconfig config REGULATOR_TPS68470 depends on INTEL_SKL_INT3472 || COMPILE_TEST drivers/clk/Kconfig config COMMON_CLK_TPS68470 depends on I2C depends on INTEL_SKL_INT3472 || COMPILE_TEST This is the same class of request as #1109814 (CONFIG_VIDEO_OV02C10) and #1087004 (CONFIG_VIDEO_OV01A10), both of which were accepted. Symptoms with the stock 7.1.8-2 amd64 kernel -------------------------------------------- intel-ipu7 0000:00:05.0: Found supported sensor OVTI5675:00 intel-ipu7 0000:00:05.0: Connected 1 cameras int3472-tps68470 i2c-INT3472:06: TPS68470 REVID: 0x21 int3472-tps68470 i2c-INT3472:06: error -ENODEV: No board-data found for this model The PMIC is found but cannot be set up, its MFD cells (tps68470-clk, tps68470-regulator, tps68470-gpio) have no drivers to bind to, so acpi_gpiochip_add() never runs and never clears the _DEP that OVTI5675:00 has on INT3472:06. As a result no i2c client is created for the sensor and no /dev/v4l-subdev* appears; userspace sees only the bare IPU7 ISYS capture nodes and no camera. Verification ------------ I rebuilt the following out of tree against linux-headers-7.1.8+deb14.1-amd64, from unmodified v7.1.8 sources (no patch in debian/patches/ touches these files): drivers/media/i2c/ov5675.c -> ov5675.ko drivers/gpio/gpio-tps68470.c -> gpio-tps68470.ko drivers/regulator/tps68470-regulator.c -> tps68470-regulator.ko drivers/clk/clk-tps68470.c -> clk-tps68470.ko plus a backport of the upstream DMI entry for this machine (see below). With those five modules in /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/updates/, the camera works after a normal boot: intel-ipu7 0000:00:05.0: CSE authenticate_run done int3472-tps68470 i2c-INT3472:06: TPS68470 REVID: 0x21 intel_ipu7_isys.isys intel_ipu7.isys.40: bind ov5675 1-0036 nlanes is 2 port is 0 intel_ipu7_isys.isys intel_ipu7.isys.40: All sensor registration completed. $ cam -l Available cameras: 1: Internal front camera (\_SB_.LNK0) $ cam -c1 --capture=300 --file=/tmp/cap#.bin ... 2584x1944 at 29.95 fps, 300 frames, real images PipeWire exposes it as node "libcamera_input.__SB_.LNK0" / "Built-in Front Camera". libcamera 0.7 supports IPU7 through the Simple pipeline handler with the (GPU-accelerated) SoftISP, so no out-of-tree userspace such as the Intel camera HAL is needed - the kernel config is the only thing missing. Secondary note: INT3472 board data for this model ------------------------------------------------- Independently of the config question, 7.1 only carries the DMI entry for the "Prestige 14 AI+ Evo C2VMG". The entries for the other two models were added upstream after 7.1 was cut: ae04f36 platform/x86: int3472: Match MSI laptop board name 621e4f7 platform/x86: int3472: Add more MSI AI evo laptops They add "Prestige 13 AI+ Evo A2VMG" (MS-13Q3) and "Prestige 16 AI+ Evo B2VMG" (MS-15A3), both reusing the existing msi_prestige_ai_evo_* data, and they are in 7.2. This resolves itself once forky moves to 7.2. I mention it only because enabling the four config symbols alone is not sufficient while the archive is on 7.1; a cherry-pick of those two commits would make the camera work on 7.1 as well, if the team considers that worthwhile.
