The ov5640_binning_on() function was indeed wrong (side note: that
name is confusing, it should be 0v5640_get_binning() to comply with
others..) and always returned 0, but I don't see a fix here for the
second part of the issue. In facts, during the lenghty exposure
calculation process, binning is checked to decide if the preview
shutter time should be doubled or not
static int ov5640_set_mode_exposure_calc(struct ov5640_dev *sensor,
const struct ov5640_mode_info *mode)
{
...
/* read preview shutter */
ret = ov5640_get_exposure(sensor);
if (ret < 0)
return ret;
prev_shutter = ret;
ret = ov5640_binning_on(sensor);
if (ret < 0)
return ret;
if (ret && mode->id != OV5640_MODE_720P_1280_720 &&
mode->id != OV5640_MODE_1080P_1920_1080)
prev_shutter *= 2;
...
}
My understanding is that reading the value from the register returns
the binning settings for the previously configured mode, while the
binning value is later updated for the current mode in
ov5640_set_mode(), after 'ov5640_set_mode_exposure_calc()' has already
been called. Is this ok?
Also, I assume the code checks for mode->id to figure out if the mode
uses subsampling or scaling. Be aware that for 1280x720 mode, the
selected scaling mode depends on the FPS, not only on the mode id as
it is assumed here.
A final note, the 'ov5640_set_mode_exposure_calc()' also writes VTS to
update the shutter time to the newly calculated value.
/* write capture shutter */
if (cap_shutter > (cap_vts - 4)) {
cap_vts = cap_shutter + 4;
ret = ov5640_set_vts(sensor, cap_vts);
if (ret < 0)
return ret;
}
Be aware again that VTS is later restored to the mode->vtot value by
the 'ov5640_set_timings()' functions, which again, is called later
than 'ov5640_set_mode_exposure_calc()'.
Wouldn't it be better to postpone exposure calculation after timings
and binnings have been set?
Thanks
