  Some camera systems cannot operate mt9v022 in normal mode and use
only the snapshot mode. The TechNote for mt9v022 (TN0960) and mt9v024
(TN-09-225) describes required register settings when configuring the
snapshot operation. The snapshot mode requires that certain automatic
functions of the image sensor should be disabled or set to fixed values.

According to the TechNote bit 2 and bit 9 in the register 0x20 must be
set in snapshot mode and unset for normal operation. This applies for
mt9v022 Rev.3 and mt9v024. Add required reg. 0x20 settings dependent on
sensor chip version.

I'm afraid, I don't understand again

Do I understand it right, that now on mt9v022 rev.3 and mt9v024 you 
unconditionally added using REG32 for leaving the snapshot mode on 
streamon and entering it on streamoff. This should be ok in principle, 
since that's also what we're trying to do, using the CHIP_CONTROL 
register. But in your comment you say, that on some _systems_ you can only 
_operate_ in snapshot mode. I.e. the snapshot mode enabled during running 
streaming, right? Then how does this patch help you with that?

Thanks

Yes. But i.e. the driver calling the sub-device stream control function
on streamon knows that the normal mode is not supported and therefore it
calls this function with argument enable == 0, effectively setting the
snapshot mode.

Right, I thought you could be doing that... Well, on the one hand I should 
be happy, that the problem is solved without driver modifications, OTOH 
this isn't pretty... In fact this shouldn't work at all. After a 
stream-off the buffer queue should be stopped too. However, to properly 
implement this you'd have to add a new V4L2 control to switch into 
snapshot mode.

Yes, the capture driver stops its buffer queue on stream-off.

Why shouldn't it work? The buffer queue is handled by the host driver,
not by the sensor driver. And in my case the host driver stops the buffer
queue in its streamoff, as it should. It works without issues and doesn't
cause any problems for other mt9v022 users.

Because one shouldn't abuse the API by activating streaming on the bridge 
driver and deactivating it on the sensor.

I don't see how is it an abuse of the API at all. The sensor is just
configured to snapshot mode but is still able to stream if it is
triggered continuously by external events. It is actually a streaming
case.

The STREAMOFF API is supposed to stop streaming completely. It is just on 
mt9v022 driver, that it happens, that no other way has been found to stop 
video operation but to switch to the snapshot mode. But the API itself 
prohibits any streaming in this mode. So, any other use of it is an abuse.
