TX2NX PXL_SOF syncpt timeout when reading image

Hi,

My board is TX2NX, jetpack version 4.5.1.

I’m having IMX485 image sensor and driver working in binning mode 1932x1090 resolution. Now I want to add one more mode to have FHD 1920x1080 crop resolution from this binning mode.
From the datasheet, I added register settings for the crop (I did the same with all pixel mode crop from 3864x2180 → 3840x2160 without problem), added camera mode in device tree. But when trying to read raw image using v4l2, the dmesg gives “PXL_SOF syncpt timeout! err = -11” and v4l2-ctrl returns “VIDIOC_DQBUF: failed: Input/output error”

Please find the trace/dmesg/v4l2 output attached.
I tried following command to get raw image. Similar for binning 1932x1090 mode, just change the resolution. Binning 1932x1090 is working fine, binning crop 1920x1080 is having timeout.

v4l2-ctl --set-fmt-video=width=1920,height=1080,pixelformat=RG12 --stream-mmap --set-ctrl=bypass_mode=0,frame_rate=15000000,exposure=30000,gain=0 --stream-count=1 --stream-skip=10 -d /dev/video0 --verbose

And here is the code update:

Does this mean the CSI setups is not correct? Do you have any idea about where I should look into to solve?
Thank you so much.

Maybe check the trace log for more information.

Hi @ShaneCCC ,

The trace shows:

compare to the CHANSEL_FAULT bitfield from your link, it is actually PIXEL_SOF error, same as in dmesg.

Does this mean the StartOfFrame signal comes earlier than expected? Or something else? Thank you.

The CHANSEL_FAULT bitfield tell PIXEL_SHORT_LINE, that tell the output pixel less than expect.

Hi @ShaneCCC ,

Thank you for point it out. I will check more.
Another question is: is there a way to crop the image using VI with configuration? Is there any example if it is possible? Thank you.

I would suggest using VIC(NV Video Convertor) to crop.
