Hi Guennadi and LMML,

I'm working on a camera controller driver for Tegra, which is using soc_camera. But we also need to use Tegra specific host1x interface like syncpt APIs.

Since host1x is quite Tegra specific framework which is in drivers/gpu/host1x and has several host1x's client driver like graphic 2D driver, my v4l2 soc_camera driver is also a host1x client driver. Right now host1x does not expose any global include header files like API in the kernel, because no other users. So we plan to put all host1x related driver together, is that OK for us to put our Tegra soc_camera driver into drivers/gpu/host1x/camera or similar?

I guess besides it will introduce some extra maintenance it should be OK, right?

Exactly, there's already been a precedent:

It hasn't been finalised yet though.

OK, cool. I will try to provide the first version soon.

Thanks a lot, -Bryan
