Release 28.2.1 nvcamera-daemon

Robotics & Edge Computing Jetson Systems Jetson TX2
1

Hi,
I’m having difficulty bringing up a new sensor.

I am able to capture from it using yavta and other v4l2 apps, but the sensor is a bayer sensor, so we want to use gstreamer and nvcamerasrc to get the ISP do do the debayer.

The vendor has supplied a reference jetson image that works on 28.2.1. But when we compile the driver in to our own code base it seems that nvcamera-daemon can’t recognize it.

Any ideas where I should look?
I’ve tried loading their device tree on our system. With that I can still capture using v4l2 apps, but not gstreamer nvcamerasrc.

The portion ViCsi capture path not initialized seems like the important part. What is it looking for that I may be missing?

hello phabsch,

here’s external page you may refer to, Making sure you're not a bot!
you may also ask your customer to share kernel and device tree patches for your reference.
thanks

Hi,
I have seen that page before, and used the steps to get through a lot of debugging. As I stated, I am able to to capture valid data using v4l2 based applications. The problem arises when I try to use nvcamerasrc.

We do have the vendor source code. I used that to get the system up and running as a v4l2 device. The difference being that we have never had the need to use the ISP before, so some of those drivers weren’t installed on our system. I tried to install all appropriate files that I could think of, but it’s not helping.

This is why I’m asking what the errors in the log above are indicating? What is nvdaemon looking for that it thinks the ViCsi path isn’t installed? We apparenlty have things hooked up and configured correctly if we can capture valid data from the camera with v4l2.

hello phabsch,

it means sensor initial sequence works if you verify sensor stream with v4l2 standard controls,
while nvcamerasrc depends-on property settings in the sensor device tree, especially the clock rates. please review your device tree settings, such as pix_clk_hz, mclk_multiplier; please refer to Sensor Driver Programming Guide for more details.
you may also share the gstreamer pipeline for reference.
thanks

I will double check the clock settings and device tree. I am a bit doubtful that I will find anything since I did manually compare the decompiled dtb files that are used on the working image and the one I compiled.
I also tried loading the tree from the working image on to our non-functional system. I could see in the filesystem the applied differences, but nvcamera-daemon still didn’t work.

Also, for the clock, the vendor uses a script that configures all clocks to maximum. I performed the same actions here and it didn’t help.

Here is the gstreamer pipeline I am running on both the functional and non-functional system:
gst-launch-1.0 -v nvcamerasrc num-buffers=10 ! 'video/x-raw(memory:NVMM),width=1352,height=762,format=I420,framerate=60/1' ! fakesink

7

hello phabsch,

nvcamerasrc pipeline did not support I420 formats,
you may refer to Camera Architecture Stack, nvcamerasrc works with bayer sensors.
thanks

8

Yes, my camera is bayer and outputs RG10. Doesn’t that gstreamer pipeline just specify the output format of the ISP?
It works on my reference system:

Here are the logs from gstreamer:

hello phabsch,

please have a try to change the format as NV12.
for example,

$ gst-launch-1.0 -v nvcamerasrc num-buffers=10 ! ‘video/x-raw(memory:NVMM),width=1352,height=762,format=NV12,framerate=60/1’ ! fakesink
10

Interesting. On the reference system that doesn’t work if I use a framerate of 60/1 and NV12, I have to use 30/1.
Anyways, it doesn’t change the behaviour on the other system, I still get the “ViCsi capture path not initialized”
error on my system.

11

hello phabsch,

may I know what’s the difference between workable and failed one.
could you please share all details of environment setups.
thanks

12

That’s what I’m trying to figure out. At this point there are very few differences. I can see we have a different version of libc, so that may point to a difference in toolchain, but would that account for an error such as this?

That is why I ask what set of circumstances lead to " ViCsi capture path not initialized? What is the nvcamera-daemon looking for that would print out this message?

13

hello phabsch,

it’ll shown such message (not an error) while there’s no captures yet on this ViCsiHw.

14

What information can I provide that would help you give me clues where to look?
The reference system is compiled with yocto (thud).
Our system is compiled with buildroot with an old TX1 toolchain (linaro gcc 5.3).

We cannot update our toolchain for various reasons.
Could the toolchain be causing issues? I see there is a different version of libc between them.

That being said, we had stripped out some driver files before since they weren’t needed (we didn’t have nvcamera-daemon on our system until now).
Is there something that could be missing that nvcamera-daemon is looking for? I don’t see it complaining about missing module files or anything like that.

15

I tried using nvgstcapture-1.0 and got a similar result. I was hoping argus might provide better luck:
Note: it does know which sensor to use and gets the camera parameters and other various details.

hello phabsch,

you’ll need nvcamera-daemon service to enable camera stream with Argus or nvcamerasrc plugin.

17

Thanks. I figured argus would require nvcamera-deamon but I was hoping that it would provide more information as to what is going wrong.

Do you have any thoughts about my toolchain question above?
Also, are there any more verbose logs or debug enabled binaries that would provide me with more details as to what is misconfigured?

18

hello phabsch,

there’s debug flags you may assign to enable debug logs. for example, export enableCamScfLogs=5
you may also refer to external page for reference, [url]https://elinux.org/Jetson_TX2_Camera_BringUp[/url].
thanks

19

I already had those debug flags enabled in the logs I provided above.

Hi Jerry,

I am working with phabsch. I am also curious why we have this error in the log:

SCF: Error BadParameter:  (propagating from src/components/stages/FaceDetectStage.cpp, function doInitializeInternal(), line 64)
SCF: Error BadParameter:  (propagating from src/components/stages/AsyncStage.cpp, function asyncOrderedCommonInit(), line 123)
SCF: Error BadParameter:  (propagating from src/components/stages/OrderedStage.cpp, function doInitialize(), line 194)
SCF: Error BadParameter:  (propagating from src/components/stages/Stage.cpp, function initialize(), line 42)

We are just doing camera image capture, why SCF will complain about FaceDetection bad parameters? What is SCF? Which libraries implement the SCF logic?

Thanks

21

hello dk1900, phabsch,

please refer to Camera Architecture Stack, SCF is one of the software stack in [Camera Core] block.
there’re several components about camera functionality, you should ignore FaceDetectStage errors since it’s not related to your issue.

I’ve notice there’re some failure about I/O controls,

Ioctl failed: Invalid argument

let’s narrow down the issue, could you please confirm sensor streaming by enable v4l2 IOCTL for verification.
thanks
