Supporting dumb cameras in trixie

Show all headers | View raw

Hello!

The story begins by me ordering Dell 9440. After very good record of 
Dell XPS series Linux support I thought it'll be a win. Boy I was wrong.

Anyway, solving missing bits has included 4 patches, which can be seen 
here: https://gitlab.com/dhxx/linux/-/commits/l9440-webcam (last 4+9).

  - general fixes (patching existing code): 
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-media/cover/20250417111337.38142-1-hdegoede@redhat.com/
  - OV02C10 (standalone): 
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-media/patch/20241118212158.624299-1-heimir.sverrisson@gmail.com/#26127637
  - OV02E10 (standalone) 
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-media/cover/20250407-b4-media-comitters-next-25-03-13-ov02e10-v4-0-211e3e6fae90@linaro.org/

For my use case, only OV02E10 is needed, but other models needs OV02C10.

And now the ugliest part... USBIO

  - usb-io dropped in + Kconfig/Makefile changes
  - https://github.com/intel/usbio-drivers/pull/33
  - https://github.com/intel/usbio-drivers/pull/34

This could be eventually kept outside as module. Sounds still better to 
create wiki page with note: Install this module and it'll work, instead 
of asking them to patch existing kernel module, add two modules to see 
which one will work and then install USBIO module.

What do you think? If you would be OK with this enablement, I volunteer 
to prepare the patches against 6.12 (so far I did 6.13/14).
