2012-08-12[media] media: fix MEDIA_IOC_DEVICE_INFO return codeNicolas THERY1-1/+3
The MEDIA_IOC_DEVICE_INFO ioctl was returning a positive value rather than a negative error code when failing to copy output parameter to user-space. Tested by compilation only. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Thery <nicolas.thery@st.com> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>
2011-12-20[media] media: fix truncated entity specificationClemens Ladisch1-2/+1
When enumerating an entity, assign the entire entity specification instead of only the first two words. (This requires giving the specification union a name.) So far, no driver actually uses more than two words, but this will be needed for ALSA entities. Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch <clemens@ladisch.de> [laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com: Rename specification to info] Signed-off-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>
2011-11-01drivers/media: Add export.h for EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE as requiredPaul Gortmaker1-0/+1
These two macros were in module.h but now module.h is no longer sprayed across every source file imaginable, so the users need to expicitly call out their use of them. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-03-22[media] media: Links setupLaurent Pinchart1-0/+45
Create the following ioctl and implement it at the media device level to setup links. - MEDIA_IOC_SETUP_LINK: Modify the properties of a given link The only property that can currently be modified is the ENABLED link flag to enable/disable a link. Links marked with the IMMUTABLE link flag can not be enabled or disabled. Enabling or disabling a link has effects on entities' use count. Those changes are automatically propagated through the graph.

2011-03-22[media] media: Entities, pads and links enumerationLaurent Pinchart1-0/+123
Create the following two ioctls and implement them at the media device level to enumerate entities, pads and links. - MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES: Enumerate entities and their properties - MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_LINKS: Enumerate all pads and links for a given entity Entity IDs can be non-contiguous. Userspace applications should enumerate entities using the MEDIA_ENT_ID_FLAG_NEXT flag. When the flag is set in the entity ID, the MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES will return the next entity with an ID bigger than the requested one. Only forward links that originate at one of the entity's source pads are returned during the enumeration process.

2011-03-22[media] media: Media device information queryLaurent Pinchart1-0/+57
Create the following ioctl and implement it at the media device level to query device information. - MEDIA_IOC_DEVICE_INFO: Query media device information The ioctl and its data structure are defined in the new kernel header linux/media.h available to userspace applications.

2011-03-22[media] media: Entity use countLaurent Pinchart1-0/+1
Due to the wide differences between drivers regarding power management needs, the media controller does not implement power management. However, the media_entity structure includes a use_count field that media drivers can use to track the number of users of every entity for power management needs. The use_count field is owned by media drivers and must not be touched by entity drivers. Access to the field must be protected by the media device graph_mutex lock.

2011-03-22[media] media: Entities, pads and linksLaurent Pinchart1-0/+56
As video hardware pipelines become increasingly complex and configurable, the current hardware description through v4l2 subdevices reaches its limits. In addition to enumerating and configuring subdevices, video camera drivers need a way to discover and modify at runtime how those subdevices are connected. This is done through new elements called entities, pads and links. An entity is a basic media hardware building block. It can correspond to a large variety of logical blocks such as physical hardware devices (CMOS sensor for instance), logical hardware devices (a building block in a System-on-Chip image processing pipeline), DMA channels or physical connectors. A pad is a connection endpoint through which an entity can interact with other entities. Data (not restricted to video) produced by an entity flows from the entity's output to one or more entity inputs. Pads should not be confused with physical pins at chip boundaries. A link is a point-to-point oriented connection between two pads, either on the same entity or on different entities. Data flows from a source pad to a sink pad. Links are stored in the source entity. To make backwards graph walk faster, a copy of all links is also stored in the sink entity. The copy is known as a backlink and is only used to help graph traversal. The entity API is made of three functions: - media_entity_init() initializes an entity. The caller must provide an array of pads as well as an estimated number of links. The links array is allocated dynamically and will be reallocated if it grows beyond the initial estimate. - media_entity_cleanup() frees resources allocated for an entity. It must be called during the cleanup phase after unregistering the entity and before freeing it. - media_entity_create_link() creates a link between two entities. An entry in the link array of each entity is allocated and stores pointers to source and sink pads. When a media device is unregistered, all its entities are unregistered automatically. The code is based on Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl> initial work.

2011-03-22[media] media: Media deviceLaurent Pinchart1-0/+100
The media_device structure abstracts functions common to all kind of media devices (v4l2, dvb, alsa, ...). It manages media entities and offers a userspace API to discover and configure the media device internal topology.
