Tips for debugging
TX1 tegra-vi4 15700000.vi: PXL_SOF syncpt timeout! err = -11
 * if you saw below error message

mode0 { cil_settletime = "0"; active_w = "1920"; active_h = "1080"; embedded_metadata_height = "1";
 * please check below 4 items in your sensor device tree, these should follow the settings in your sensor datasheet

video4linux video0: MW_ACK_DONE syncpoint time out!
 * if you saw below error message

sudo su cd /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/ echo file csi2_fops.c +p > control
 * Enable the csi debug message from below command, and use v4l2-ctl to verify the driver first.

v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video0 --set-ctrl bypass_mode=0 --stream-mmap --stream-count=3

please review the configuration of "line_length" in sensor driver try to increase the delay between video lines data send via CSI review the sensor datasheet to check the settings of FPS range
 * please check below

TX2 arm-smmu 12000000.iommu: Unhandled context fault: iova=0x00000000, fsynr=0x200011, cb=19, sid=4(0x4 - VI), pgd=0, pud=0, pmd=0, pte=0
 * if you saw below message it could be the sensor output embedded data line but DT didn't declare embedded_metadata_height or it value is 0

Steps to enable more debug messages
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_on echo 30720 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tegra_rtcpu/enable echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/freertos/enable echo 2 > /sys/kernel/debug/camrtc/log-level echo > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
 * To enable trace for more information

It could be CRC error at frame end package. Please contact with sensor vendor to check the CRC header. kworker/0:1-2059 [000] ...1   434.733650: rtcpu_vinotify_handle_msg: tstamp:13948014423 tag:CSIMUX_FRAME channel:0x00 frame:2 vi_tstamp:1063112012 data:0x00400060 kworker/0:1-2059 [000] ...1   434.733654: rtcpu_vinotify_handle_msg: tstamp:13949051348 tag:CSIMUX_FRAME channel:0x00 frame:3 vi_tstamp:1064148939 data:0x00400060
