Laurent Pinchart df3305156f [media] v4l: xilinx: Add Xilinx Video IP core
Xilinx platforms have no hardwired video capture or video processing
interface. Users create capture and memory to memory processing
pipelines in the FPGA fabric to suit their particular needs, by
instantiating video IP cores from a large library.

The Xilinx Video IP core is a framework that models a video pipeline
described in the device tree and expose the pipeline to userspace
through the media controller and V4L2 APIs.

DT bindings for Xilinx video IP cores
-------------------------------------
Xilinx video IP cores process video streams by acting as video sinks and/or
sources. They are connected by links through their input and output ports,
creating a video pipeline.
Each video IP core is represented by an AMBA bus child node in the device
tree using bindings documented in this directory. Connections between the IP
cores are represented as defined in ../video-interfaces.txt.
The whole pipeline is represented by an AMBA bus child node in the device
tree using bindings documented in ./xlnx,video.txt.
Common properties
-----------------
The following properties are common to all Xilinx video IP cores.
- xlnx,video-format: This property represents a video format transmitted on an
AXI bus between video IP cores, using its VF code as defined in "AXI4-Stream
Video IP and System Design Guide" [UG934]. How the format relates to the IP
core is decribed in the IP core bindings documentation.
- xlnx,video-width: This property qualifies the video format with the sample
width expressed as a number of bits per pixel component. All components must
use the same width.
- xlnx,cfa-pattern: When the video format is set to Mono/Sensor, this property
describes the sensor's color filter array pattern. Supported values are
"bggr", "gbrg", "grbg", "rggb" and "mono". If not specified, the pattern
defaults to "mono".
