Merge tag 'media/v5.8-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media
Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
- Media documentation is now split into admin-guide, driver-api and
userspace-api books (a longstanding request from Jon);
- The media Kconfig was reorganized, in order to make easier to select
drivers and their dependencies;
- The testing drivers now has a separate directory;
- added a new driver for Rockchip Video Decoder IP;
- The atomisp staging driver was resurrected. It is meant to work with
4 generations of cameras on Atom-based laptops, tablets and cell
phones. So, it seems worth investing time to cleanup this driver and
making it in good shape.
- Added some V4L2 core ancillary routines to help with h264 codecs;
- Added an ov2740 image sensor driver;
- The si2157 gained support for Analog TV, which, in turn, added
support for some cx231xx and cx23885 boards to also support analog
standards;
- Added some V4L2 controls (V4L2_CID_CAMERA_ORIENTATION and
V4L2_CID_CAMERA_SENSOR_ROTATION) to help identifying where the camera
is located at the device;
- VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT was extended to support MC-centric devices;
- Lots of drivers improvements and cleanups.

The +significance of blocking or non-blocking mode is described in the +documentation for functions where there is a difference. It does not +affect the semantics of the open() call itself. A device opened in +blocking mode can later be put into non-blocking mode (and vice versa) +using the F_SETFL command of the fcntl system call. This is a standard +system call, documented in the Linux manual page for fcntl. Only one +user can open the Video Device in O_RDWR mode. All other attempts to +open the device in this mode will fail, and an error-code will be +returned. If the Video Device is opened in O_RDONLY mode, the only +ioctl call that can be used is VIDEO_GET_STATUS. All other call will +return an error code. + + +Return Value +------------ + +.. tabularcolumns:: |p{2.5cm}|p{15.0cm}| + +.. flat-table:: + :header-rows: 0 + :stub-columns: 0 + + + - .. row 1 + + - ``ENODEV`` + + - Device driver not loaded/available. + + - .. row 2 + + - ``EINTERNAL`` + + - Internal error. + + - .. row 3 + + - ``EBUSY`` + + - Device or resource busy. + + - .. row 4 + + - ``EINVAL`` + + - Invalid argument. |
