ivsc-driver

This repository supports Intel Vision Sensing Controller(IVSC) on Intel Alder Lake platforms.

Build instructions:

Three ways are available:

build with kernel source tree
build out of kernel source tree
build with dkms

build with kernel source tree

Tested with kernel 5.12-rc4 and 5.13-rc5

          This adds support for Intel La Jolla Cove USB-I2C/SPI/GPIO
          Adapter (LJCA). Additional drivers such as I2C_LJCA,
          GPIO_LJCA, etc. must be enabled in order to use the
          functionality of the device.

       help
          Select this option to enable SPI driver for the INTEL
          La Jolla Cove Adapter (LJCA) board.

          This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the module
          will be called spi-ljca.

          La Jolla Cove Adapter (LJCA) board.

          This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the module
          will be called gpio-ljca.

         If you say yes to this option, I2C functionality support of INTEL
         La Jolla Cove Adapter (LJCA) will be included.

         This driver can also be built as a module.  If so, the module
         will be called i2c-ljca.

CONFIG_INTEL_VSC_ACE_DEBUG=m

build out of kernel source tree

Requires 5.13 or later kernel header installed on compiling machine
To compile:

$cd ivsc-driver
$make -j`nproc`

To install and use modules

$sudo make modules_install
$sudo depmod -a

Build with dkms

a dkms.conf file is also provided as an example for building with dkms which can be used by dkms add, build and install.

Deployment:

ivsc firmware bins should be copied to /lib/firmware/vsc.

And on debugging platform the binaries(e.g. ov01a10 sensor) will be put as below:

/lib/firmware/vsc/soc_a1/ivsc_fw_a1.bin
/lib/firmware/vsc/soc_a1/ivsc_pkg_ovti01a0_0_a1.bin
/lib/firmware/vsc/soc_a1/ivsc_skucfg_ovti01a0_0_1_a1.bin

And on production platform the binaries(e.g. ov01a10 sensor) will be put as below:

/lib/firmware/vsc/soc_a1_prod/ivsc_fw_a1_prod.bin
/lib/firmware/vsc/soc_a1_prod/ivsc_pkg_ovti01a0_0_a1_prod.bin
/lib/firmware/vsc/soc_a1_prod/ivsc_skucfg_ovti01a0_0_1_a1_prod.bin
