+=========================================================
+Raspberry Pi PiSP Back End Memory-to-Memory ISP (pisp-be)
+=========================================================
+
+The PiSP Back End
+=================
+
+The PiSP Back End is a memory-to-memory Image Signal Processor (ISP) which reads
+image data from DRAM memory and performs image processing as specified by the
+application through the parameters in a configuration buffer, before writing
+pixel data back to memory through two distinct output channels.
+
+The ISP registers and programming model are documented in the `Raspberry Pi
+Image Signal Processor (PiSP) Specification document`_
+
+The PiSP Back End ISP processes images in tiles. The handling of image
+tessellation and the computation of low-level configuration parameters is
+realized by a free software library called `libpisp
+<https://github.com/raspberrypi/libpisp>`_.
+
+The full image processing pipeline, which involves capturing RAW Bayer data from
+an image sensor through a MIPI CSI-2 compatible capture interface, storing them
+in DRAM memory and processing them in the PiSP Back End to obtain images usable
+by an application is implemented in `libcamera <https://libcamera.org>`_ as
+part of the Raspberry Pi platform support.
+
+The pisp-be driver
+==================
+
+The Raspberry Pi PiSP Back End (pisp-be) driver is located under
+drivers/media/platform/raspberrypi/pisp-be. It uses the `V4L2 API` to register
+a number of video capture and output devices, the `V4L2 subdev API` to register
+a subdevice for the ISP that connects the video devices in a single media graph
+realized using the `Media Controller (MC) API`.
+
+The media topology registered by the `pisp-be` driver is represented below:
+
+.. _pips-be-topology:
+
+.. kernel-figure:: raspberrypi-pisp-be.dot
+ :alt: Diagram of the default media pipeline topology
+ :align: center
+
+
+The media graph registers the following video device nodes:
+
+- pispbe-input: output device for images to be submitted to the ISP for
+ processing.
+- pispbe-tdn_input: output device for temporal denoise.
+- pispbe-stitch_input: output device for image stitching (HDR).
+- pispbe-output0: first capture device for processed images.
+- pispbe-output1: second capture device for processed images.
+- pispbe-tdn_output: capture device for temporal denoise.
+- pispbe-stitch_output: capture device for image stitching (HDR).
+- pispbe-config: output device for ISP configuration parameters.
+
+pispbe-input
+------------
+
+Images to be processed by the ISP are queued to the `pispbe-input` output device
+node. For a list of image formats supported as input to the ISP refer to the
+`Raspberry Pi Image Signal Processor (PiSP) Specification document`_.
+
+pispbe-tdn_input, pispbe-tdn_output
+-----------------------------------
+
+The `pispbe-tdn_input` output video device receives images to be processed by
+the temporal denoise block which are captured from the `pispbe-tdn_output`
+capture video device. Userspace is responsible for maintaining queues on both
+devices, and ensuring that buffers completed on the output are queued to the
+input.
+
+pispbe-stitch_input, pispbe-stitch_output
+-----------------------------------------
+
+To realize HDR (high dynamic range) image processing the image stitching and
+tonemapping blocks are used. The `pispbe-stitch_output` writes images to memory
+and the `pispbe-stitch_input` receives the previously written frame to process
+it along with the current input image. Userspace is responsible for maintaining
+queues on both devices, and ensuring that buffers completed on the output are
+queued to the input.
+
+pispbe-output0, pispbe-output1
+------------------------------
+
+The two capture devices write to memory the pixel data as processed by the ISP.
+
+pispbe-config
+-------------
+
+The `pispbe-config` output video devices receives a buffer of configuration
+parameters that define the desired image processing to be performed by the ISP.
+
+The format of the ISP configuration parameter is defined by
+:c:type:`pisp_be_tiles_config` C structure and the meaning of each parameter is
+described in the `Raspberry Pi Image Signal Processor (PiSP) Specification
+document`_.
+
+ISP configuration
+=================
+
+The ISP configuration is described solely by the content of the parameters
+buffer. The only parameter that userspace needs to configure using the V4L2 API
+is the image format on the output and capture video devices for validation of
+the content of the parameters buffer.
