QCLINUX: arm64: dts: qcom: shikra: Install camx DTBO overlays by michael-jihan-qcom · Pull Request #1609 · qualcomm-linux/kernel-topics

michael-jihan-qcom · 2026-07-30T11:24:47Z

Add Makefile entries to build and install camera (camx) DTBO overlays for Shikra CQS EVK and IQS EVK board variants.

Each composite DTB bundles the respective base platform DTB with the camx overlay, and registers both the merged .dtb and standalone .dtbo.

total: 0 errors, 26 warnings, 0 checks, 1233 lines checked
Fix:

For undocumented DT compatible strings:

These are vendor-specific camera subsystem compatible strings for a QCLINUX: (vendor-only) commit

Option 1 (recommended for vendor tree): Accept the warnings as-is since this is vendor-only code not intended for upstream submission

Option 2 (if bindings are desired): Add YAML binding documentation for each compatible string in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/qcom/ (e.g., qcom,cam-cpas.yaml, qcom,cci.yaml, etc.)

For line length violations:
# Edit the file and wrap the two long lines at columns 167 and 174
vim arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/shikra-camera.dtsi +167
# Wrap lines to stay within 100 columns
git add arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/shikra-camera.dtsi
git commit --amend --no-edit

❌ check-patch-compliance

Root cause: The QCLINUX: prefix is not in the checker's allowed list (FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:).

Failure details:
Checking commit: QCLINUX: arm64: dts: qcom: shikra: Install camx DTBO overlays
Commit summary does not start with a required prefix
Analysis:

This is a known limitation of the check-patch-compliance checker. The checker enforces upstream-linkable prefixes only and does not recognize vendor-internal prefixes like QCLINUX: or PENDING:.

Since this commit is vendor-only (camera subsystem integration with no upstream equivalent), the QCLINUX: prefix is correct and appropriate. The checker will always fail for vendor-only commits.

Fix:

No action required. This is expected behavior for vendor-only commits. The QCLINUX: prefix correctly indicates this is Qualcomm Linux-specific code with no upstream equivalent.

If this commit were posted upstream or had an upstream equivalent, you would need to:

Change prefix to FROMLIST: (if posted to mailing list)

Add Link: <lore-url> to the commit message

Reproduce locally:
# This checker will always fail for QCLINUX: prefixed commits
# No local reproduction needed — this is a known checker limitation
Verdict

2 blockers to address before merge:

checkpatch line length violations (2 lines) — Must fix: Wrap the two lines at shikra-camera.dtsi:167 and :174 to stay within 100 columns.

checkpatch undocumented DT compatible strings (24 warnings) — Recommended action: Accept as-is for vendor-only code, OR add binding documentation if desired for completeness.

check-patch-compliance failure — No action needed: This is expected for QCLINUX: vendor-only commits.

Recommendation: Fix the 2 line length violations. The undocumented compatible string warnings can be accepted for vendor-only camera subsystem code, and the check-patch-compliance failure is expected and acceptable for QCLINUX: commits.

Fix:
Indentation errors (37 errors + 37 warnings):
# Convert spaces to tabs in the affected file
# The file has inconsistent indentation - some sections use tabs (correct),
# others use spaces (incorrect)

# Manual fix required: open shikra-camera.dtsi and replace leading spaces
# with tabs for all lines around:
# - Line 346 (clock-rates)
# - Lines 357-362 (opp-table entries)
# - Similar patterns throughout the file

# Or use an editor with "convert spaces to tabs" feature
Undocumented compatible strings (19 warnings):

These are vendor-specific camera subsystem compatible strings that lack upstream bindings. Since this is a QCLINUX: vendor-only patch targeting tech/overlay/dt, these warnings are expected and can be documented as follows:

qcom,cam-cpas, qcom,cci, qcom,cam-* → Qualcomm camera subsystem nodes

qcom,msm-cam-smmu* → Camera SMMU nodes

qcom,tfe530, qcom,csid530 → Camera ISP/sensor interface nodes

qcom,csiphy* → Camera PHY nodes

Action: Either:

Add vendor bindings to Documentation/devicetree/bindings/ (if appropriate for vendor tree)

OR document in commit message that these are vendor-specific and intentionally undocumented
Long lines (2 warnings):
Wrap lines exceeding 100 characters

❌ check-patch-compliance

Root cause: QCLINUX: prefix is not in the checker's allowed list (FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:).

Failure details:
Checking commit: QCLINUX: arm64: dts: qcom: shikra: Install camx DTBO overlays
Commit summary does not start with a required prefix
Analysis:

This is a known limitation of the check-patch-compliance checker. The checker only accepts upstream-linkable prefixes and rejects vendor-internal prefixes like QCLINUX: and PENDING:.

Since this is a vendor-only DTS change with no upstream equivalent (camera subsystem nodes specific to Qualcomm's vendor tree), the QCLINUX: prefix is correct for this use case.

Fix: None required for the patch itself. This checker will always fail for QCLINUX: commits. This is expected behavior for vendor-only changes.

⚠️ tag-check (Manual Analysis)

Applies to: All branches except qcom-next and qcom-next-staging
Target branch: tech/overlay/dt → tag-check applies

Analysis:

The commit subject is:
QCLINUX: arm64: dts: qcom: shikra: Install camx DTBO overlays
✅ PASS — The subject starts with QCLINUX:, which is a valid prefix tag.

Valid prefixes are: FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:, QCLINUX:, PENDING:, WORKAROUND:

Note: While tag-check passes (the commit has a prefix), check-patch-compliance fails because it enforces a stricter subset of prefixes. This is a known discrepancy between the two checks for vendor-only commits.

Verdict

2 blockers must be fixed before merge:

checkpatch indentation errors (37 errors) — Replace spaces with tabs in shikra-camera.dtsi

checkpatch undocumented compatibles (19 warnings) — Either add vendor bindings or document in commit message

Known limitation (no action required):

check-patch-compliance failure on QCLINUX: prefix is expected for vendor-only commits

Recommended action:
# 1. Fix indentation
git rebase -i HEAD~1  # mark commit as 'edit'
# Open shikra-camera.dtsi and convert leading spaces to tabs
# Focus on lines around 346, 357-362, and similar patterns
git add arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/shikra-camera.dtsi
git commit --amend --no-edit

# 2. Optionally update commit message to acknowledge undocumented compatibles:
git commit --amend
# Add to commit body:
# "Note: Camera subsystem compatible strings (qcom,cam-*) are vendor-specific
#  and intentionally lack upstream bindings in this vendor tree."

git rebase --continue

8d0af7f6dd28 total: 0 errors, 26 warnings, 0 checks, 1284 lines checked
Fix:

For the undocumented compatible strings (24 warnings):

These are vendor-specific camera subsystem bindings that do not exist upstream

Since this is a QCLINUX: vendor-only commit, these warnings are expected

To resolve: Add DT binding YAML files to Documentation/devicetree/bindings/ for each compatible string, or accept the warnings as vendor-specific

For the long lines (2 warnings):
# Edit arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/shikra-camera.dtsi
# Lines 167 and 174: wrap or shorten the traffic-merge-type lines

# Option 1: Use a shorter macro name (if possible)
# Option 2: Accept the warning (101 chars is only 1 char over the 100-char limit)

❌ check-patch-compliance

Root cause: The commit uses the QCLINUX: prefix, which is not in the checker's allowed list (FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:).

Failure details:
Checking commit: QCLINUX: arm64: dts: qcom: shikra: Install camx DTBO overlays
Commit summary does not start with a required prefix
Fix:

This is a known limitation of the check-patch-compliance checker. The checker only accepts upstream-linkable prefixes (FROMLIST:, FROMGIT:, UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:), but QCLINUX: is a valid vendor-internal prefix used in the tree for vendor-only changes.

No patch change is needed — this failure is expected for vendor-only commits. The checker will always fail for QCLINUX: and PENDING: prefixes.

Note: If this commit were posted upstream or derived from an upstream patch, you would need to:

Change the prefix to FROMLIST: (if posted to lore but not yet merged)

Add a Link: <lore-url> trailer to the commit body

Reproduce locally:
# The checker script is in the kernel-checkers repo
bash ../kernel-checkers/check-patch-compliance.sh \
  --kernel-src /path/to/kernel \
  --base 1a8e8a0f8a0a --head 3693b0fb2f35
⚠️ qcom-next-check (Policy Recommendation)

Root cause: This commit uses the QCLINUX: prefix and targets the qcom-next branch.

Policy note:
The qcom-next branch is intended to track upstream development and should primarily contain commits with FROMLIST: or UPSTREAM: prefixes. Vendor-only (QCLINUX:) commits are typically reserved for vendor-specific branches.

Recommendation:

If this camera subsystem support is vendor-only with no upstream equivalent, consider whether qcom-next is the appropriate target branch

If camera subsystem bindings and drivers will be upstreamed, consider posting them to the mailing list first and using the FROMLIST: prefix

If this is a temporary integration pending upstream submission, document the upstream plan in the commit message

This is a policy consideration, not a technical blocker.

Verdict

2 checker failures (checkpatch, check-patch-compliance), but both are expected for vendor-only commits:

checkpatch warnings — 24 undocumented DT compatible strings are expected for vendor camera subsystem nodes. The 2 long-line warnings (101 chars) are minor and can be accepted or fixed by wrapping.

check-patch-compliance failure — This is a known checker limitation. The QCLINUX: prefix is valid for vendor-only commits but not recognized by the upstream-focused compliance checker.

Recommendation: ✅ Ready to merge if:

The camera subsystem is genuinely vendor-only with no upstream equivalent

The target branch (qcom-next) is appropriate for vendor-specific camera support

The 24 undocumented compatible strings are acceptable without binding documentation

Optional improvements:

Wrap the 2 long lines (167, 174) in shikra-camera.dtsi to 100 chars

Add DT binding YAML files for the camera subsystem compatible strings (if planning to upstream)

Consider whether qcom-next is the right target for vendor-only camera support
