IMX462 B0444 Camera is not recognized by kernel

Raspberry Pi Cameras
1

I’m having problems setting up my IMX462 2MPx Color Ultra Low Light Camer on Rapberry PI 4

  1. Where did you get the camera module(s)?
    local reseller

  2. Model number of the product(s)?
    IMX462 B0444 Color Ultra Low Light

  3. What hardware/platform were you working on?
    Raspberry PI 4 B, Debian 11 (bullseye) aarch64
    Kernel: 6.1.21-v8+

  4. Instructions you have followed. (link/manual/etc.)
    Separately tried these:

    1. Quick Start - Arducam Wiki
    2. https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/IMX462_2MP_Starlight_Camera

Both doesn’t help
Tried myself to set other sibling drivers(aka imx290) into /boot/config.txt and /dev/video0 appeared, but I cannot read it

  1. Problems you were having?
    When used ArduCam manual /dev/video0 doesn’t show up, so I cannot use libcamera nor the v4l2-ctl to access my camera, even though I can see that i2cdetect says that there are used addresses after the driver was added to kernel boot config.
    Also I noted that after OS is booted I still can see modprobe of:Narducam_pivarietyT(null)Carducam,arducam-pivariety and it has uninterruptible state.

  2. The dmesg log from your hardware?
    Will be in further message because of length restriction

By these lines at least I can say that module started loading:

[    0.079037] platform fe801000.csi: Fixed dependency cycle(s) with /soc/i2c0mux/i2c@1/arducam_pivariety@c
[   10.651441] arducam-pivariety 10-000c: firmware version: 0x10003

But as I can see nothing else interesting didn’t happen.
My /boot/config.txt:

# For more options and information see
# http://rpf.io/configtxt
# Some settings may impact device functionality. See link above for details

# uncomment if you get no picture on HDMI for a default "safe" mode
#hdmi_safe=1

# uncomment the following to adjust overscan. Use positive numbers if console
# goes off screen, and negative if there is too much border
#overscan_left=16
#overscan_right=16
#overscan_top=16
#overscan_bottom=16

# uncomment to force a console size. By default it will be display's size minus
# overscan.
#framebuffer_width=1280
#framebuffer_height=720

# uncomment if hdmi display is not detected and composite is being output
#hdmi_force_hotplug=1

# uncomment to force a specific HDMI mode (this will force VGA)
#hdmi_group=1
#hdmi_mode=1

# uncomment to force a HDMI mode rather than DVI. This can make audio work in
# DMT (computer monitor) modes
#hdmi_drive=2

# uncomment to increase signal to HDMI, if you have interference, blanking, or
# no display
#config_hdmi_boost=4

# uncomment for composite PAL
#sdtv_mode=2

#uncomment to overclock the arm. 700 MHz is the default.
#arm_freq=800

# Uncomment some or all of these to enable the optional hardware interfaces
dtparam=i2c_arm=on
dtparam=i2c_vc=on
disable_touchscreen=1
#dtparam=i2s=on
dtparam=spi=on

# Uncomment this to enable infrared communication.
#dtoverlay=gpio-ir,gpio_pin=17
#dtoverlay=gpio-ir-tx,gpio_pin=18

# Additional overlays and parameters are documented /boot/overlays/README

# Enable audio (loads snd_bcm2835)
dtparam=audio=on

# Automatically load overlays for detected cameras

# Automatically load overlays for detected DSI displays
display_auto_detect=1

# Enable DRM VC4 V3D driver
max_framebuffers=2

# Run in 64-bit mode
arm_64bit=1

# Disable compensation for displays with overscan
disable_overscan=1

[cm4]
# Enable host mode on the 2711 built-in XHCI USB controller.
# This line should be removed if the legacy DWC2 controller is required
# (e.g. for USB device mode) or if USB support is not required.
otg_mode=1

[pi4]
# Run as fast as firmware / board allows
arm_boost=1
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d,cma-512

[all]
enable_uart=1
camera_auto_detect=0
dtoverlay=arducam-pivariety,media-controller=0

Also I’ve tried with other variations of camera_auto_detect and adding cam=0

Hi @ElectronicsLover
Not sure why you added the media-controller=0 behind the dtoverlay=arducam-pivariety. You seem to go off the path to Eden :melting_face:
Please delete the media-controller=0 and just keep the dtoverlay=arducam-pivariety in the config file. Besides, it is inevitable to install the libcamera form the Arducam branch.

wget -O install_pivariety_pkgs.sh https://github.com/ArduCAM/Arducam-Pivariety-V4L2-Driver/releases/download/install_script/install_pivariety_pkgs.sh
chmod +x install_pivariety_pkgs.sh
./install_pivariety_pkgs.sh -p libcamera_dev
./install_pivariety_pkgs.sh -p libcamera_apps

Thanks for the support, I’m sorry that I didn’t clarify that I followed ArduCam manuals and done steps with installing custom libcamera libraries and apps and also set dtoverlay=arducam-pivariety in /boot/config.txt, but for sake of test I tried this again and it doesn’t work, because I can’t see /dev/video0 and libcamera-hello --list-cameras gives:

pi@raspberrypi:~$ libcamera-hello --list-cameras
No cameras available!

I still see modprobe process in uninterruptible state and it even hinders system shutdown.

Hi @ElectronicsLover
Everything seems to go well. How about running the command “libcamera-still -t 0”?

8

It doesn’t work(

pi@raspberrypi:~$ libcamera-still -t 0
Preview window unavailable
[0:00:40.761824511] [1033]  INFO Camera camera_manager.cpp:297 libcamera v0.0.0+4367-ad9428b4
ERROR: *** no cameras available ***

list-cameras gives:

pi@raspberrypi:~$ libcamera-hello --list-cameras
No cameras available!

And I can’t see /dev/video0

Even though I can see i2cdetect gives used address of camera

10

I’ve seen that problem with the

firmware version: 0x10003

If you disable the uart on the pi set

enable_uart=1

to

#enable_uart=1

It’ll start working, but it’s a awful hack since … you now have no way to use any uart

11

Here a video showing the issue:

(please download and view to get a better quality)

It shows that the newer firmware does not initialize the camera at all, if a uart is enabled. Rendering the camera useless in numerous applications.
