Missing IMX678 support files (driver, DTS, config/ini) for KL730 platform

Francis Pang · September 16

I’m working on integrating the Sony IMX678 with the Kneron KL730 platform, and I would like to confirm the correct workflow and obtain the missing support files.

From the documentation:

KL730 HDK Board User Manual (v1.04, July 18, 2025) — describes RTSP streaming via stream.ini, referencing ./Resource/VIC/0/imx678_3840x2160_ch0.cfg.
Leipzig SDK Multimedia Framework Programming Guide (v1.05, June 9, 2025) — explains that sensor config and PQ files are loaded during VMF_VSRC_Init().
Leipzig SDK 3A Integration Guide (v1.03, Sept 12, 2024) — outlines how AE/AWB/AF integrate with specific sensors.

Based on these, IMX678 should be supported — but after searching thoroughly, I could not find the necessary files. Specifically:

No IMX678 kernel driver (imx678.c) is present in the SDK or BSP source under drivers/media/i2c.
No device tree entries / DTB examples exist for IMX678.
No sensor config/ini files (e.g., imx678_3840x2160_ch0.cfg) are present in the SDK resource folders or BSPs.

I have already searched in:

The Leipzig SDK and its Resource/ directories,
The KL730 HDK package,
The BSPs you provided: BSP_imx678_host_stream and BSP_imx678_hico_mipi.

Unfortunately, none of these contain the IMX678 driver, DTS, or config/ini files that the manuals reference.

Could you please confirm and provide:

The Linux kernel driver source for IMX678 (and build instructions).
The Device Tree / DTB example for IMX678 on KL730 (MIPI lanes, I²C addr, GPIOs, link-frequencies).
The config/ini files (e.g., imx678_3840x2160_ch0.cfg, PQ tuning files, autoscene configs) that are mentioned in the manuals.
Confirmation of the correct integration workflow (e.g., is stream.ini + streamer the recommended way to bring up IMX678, or is there another demo path?).

At this point I have the documentation, SDK, HDK, and BSP packages, but without the driver, DTS, and config files, I cannot modify configure for IMX678. Could you clarify where these files are distributed, or if they need to be requested separately?
