I only have access to remote system using these devices, that's the reason the driver in staging only supports the TPG. So I can't test the CSI-2 side of the driver without this, but I would love to do so when the TPG feature works. I make regular use of the TPG to test capture pipelines as this is my only video source on those systems. Please make sure the TPG is functioning before removing the staging driver. > > Known backward compatibility breakages: > * No default routing.
