Bounty for SDM845 camera support (gitlab.com)

submitted 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I would like to incentivize timely (1-2 months max.) implementation of pmOS camera-support for SDM845 devices by offering a bounty of 6 XMR (Monero, the digital cash). The intent to win the bounty has to be discussed here beforehand.

If supporting the entire list of devices implies significantly more effort than a subset, the minimum should be OnePlus and Shift. Details from comment:

When one opens a camera application (like millipixels), the screen should show what the camera points at and capturing color photo and video of that content should be possible. It should run in a stable manner (meaning no anticipated crashes) and the required changes should be accepted into the postmarketOS edge branch.

If bounties happen to be against the ethos of the project, let me know.

On the contrary, I hereby invite others to chip in.

Comment if interested.

@[email protected] The complexity is that we have a couple of different versions of IMX519 driver already from the Arducam 16MP camera, as well as an expectation that as this sensor should be CCS compatible, it should run with the already upstream CCS driver.

One thing that /would/ help is if someone can find the full register programming manual for the IMX519 which we have not been able to obtain.

On SDM845 (I would guess this might indicate someone is looking at perhaps the OP6 here) there are a couple of small integration issues for the DT and regulators as well. Anyway - My hope is to work through this and get the SoftISP running on OP6 (with the IMX519) during FOSDEM.
