Hi Jacopo, > The driver is -not tested- for lack of available platforms, just > compiled in.
For HW, it would be good if you use a OV7670 camera module for testing. Like this: https://www.amazon.com/OV7670-Compatible-Arduino-Atomic-Market/dp/B00TKXAGZM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8 That's what we use for the RSK board. There is probably a header on the GENMAI board as well (but you might have to solder the header down). You can just use jumper wires to hook it up. Like these: https://www.amazon.com/eBoot-Prototype-Solderless-Breadboard-Adhesive/dp/B06XKLRYRM/ref=sr_1_2 There is also this REA (Renesas America) board (YLCDRZA1H) that comes with a OV7670 module attached. https://www.renesas.com/en-us/products/software-tools/boards-and-kits/renesas-demonstration-kits/ylcdrza1h.html Better board pictures here: https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/renesas-electronics-america/YLCDRZA1H/YLCDRZA1H-ND/6173788 I might be able to get you one of these boards if the GENMAI board doesn't work out. We just ported u-boot and kernel (3.14) to it this week. NOTE: The way the RZ/A1 RSK board is laid out, you cannot use the LCD and CEU at the same time. So for testing, I had to save each image as a JPEG and view it off board. > The driver lacks functionalities provided by the original one, such as > re-scaling and cropping, originally performed using soc_camera provided > helpers. That's fine for me. At the moment, the only users of the CEU just need capture and are not using those other features. > I'm particularly interested in feedbacks in size/bus_parameters > configuration functions.

NOTE: Since the existing CEU driver only seemed to work in "image capture mode" (meaning it split the Y and CbCr into different buffers), I wrote a very simple driver to give to customers (non-V4L2) because they really wanted to use "Data synchronous fetch mode" and just keep the YUV data exactly the same as it comes out of the cameras. So, I would focus on that mode first. Also, I can share my simple driver code with you as reference (I put some extra comments in there). The CEU registers can be tricky to set up because descriptions in the hardware manual are not always clear. NOTE: "Data enable fetch mode" is broken in the RZ/A1H and RZ/A1M...and not one really seems to want it anyway, so don't worry about that mode. Chris
