This patch will change the register IPU_CSI0_CCIR_CODE_2 value from 0x40596 to 0x405A6. The change is related to the Start of field 1 first blanking line command bit[5-3] for NTSC format only. This change is dependent with ADV chip where the NEWAVMODE is set to 0 in register 0x31. Setting NEWAVMODE to "0" in ADV means "EAV/SAV codes generated to suit analog devices encoders".

Hi Philipp,
Yes it's a hack, but it has always been a hack (hardcoded values). And the reason is simple, nobody AFAIK (including me) understands how to program these CSI_CCIR_CODE registers, the description in the reference manual is complete gibberish.
Hi Philipp, Ian over at linux-media helped me to understand these registers a little better, although there are still mysteries given the poor documentation. You should have been copied on that linux-media thread.
The reason we made this change is that, in discussions with Analog Devices, they recommended setting NEWAVMODE, which changes the positions of the AV codes sent by the ADV7180 on the bt.656 bus. It took Suresh at least a full day of reverse engineering (Suresh correct me if I am wrong) to hit on the correct values in these registers to regain stable video after switching the ADV7180 to NEWAVMODE.
So this NEWAVMODE is somehow breaking from the BT.656 standard, which necessitated the change to CSI_CCIR_CODE_2. So NEWAVMODE if enabled in the ADV7180 will break other capture backends that are expecting standard BT.656 SAV/EAV codes. So NEWAVMODE should not be used and I will remove this patch in the next version.
Ok. To use that mode, first a new v4l2 mbus type and corresponding DT bindings would have to be added.
Hmm, do you mean define something like a V4L2_MBUS_BT656_NEWAVMODE, and then add a new "newavmode" boolean DT binding parsed by v4l2_of_parse_endpoint()?
I don't know if that would make sense given that this NEWAVMODE is a kind of hack of the BT.656 standard, only used by Analog Devices encoders/decoders.
Although there a _lot_ of AD encoder/decoder chips (and subdev drivers written for them), so maybe it would make sense to do this.
I don't think a "newavmode" boolean property would necessitate a whole new mbus type, but perhaps just a new parallel bus flag. I will propose a patch at linux-media that adds this.
