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. * tag 'media/v5.8-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media: (503 commits) media: Documentation: media: Refer to mbus format documentation from CSI-2 docs media: s5k5baf: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array media: i2c: imx219: Drop <linux/clk-provider.h> and <linux/clkdev.h> media: i2c: Add ov2740 image sensor driver media: ov8856: Implement sensor module revision identification media: ov8856: Add devicetree support media: dt-bindings: ov8856: Document YAML bindings media: dvb-usb: Add Cinergy S2 PCIe Dual Port support media: dvbdev: Fix tuner->demod media controller link media: dt-bindings: phy: phy-rockchip-dphy-rx0: move rockchip dphy rx0 bindings out of staging media: staging: dt-bindings: phy-rockchip-dphy-rx0: remove non-used reg property media: atomisp: unify the version for isp2401 a0 and b0 versions media: atomisp: update TODO with the current data media: atomisp: adjust some code at sh_css that could be broken media: atomisp: don't produce errs for ignored IRQs media: atomisp: print IRQ when debugging media: atomisp: isp_mmu: don't use kmem_cache media: atomisp: add a notice about possible leak resources media: atomisp: disable the dynamic and reserved pools media: atomisp: turn on camera before setting it ...

+Audio Data Types
+****************
+
+This section describes the structures, data types and defines used when
+talking to the audio device.
+
+.. c:type:: audio_stream_source
+
+The audio stream source is set through the AUDIO_SELECT_SOURCE call
+and can take the following values, depending on whether we are replaying
+from an internal (demux) or external (user write) source.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef enum {
+ AUDIO_SOURCE_DEMUX,
+ AUDIO_SOURCE_MEMORY
+ } audio_stream_source_t;
+
+AUDIO_SOURCE_DEMUX selects the demultiplexer (fed either by the
+frontend or the DVR device) as the source of the video stream. If
+AUDIO_SOURCE_MEMORY is selected the stream comes from the application
+through the ``write()`` system call.
+
+
+.. c:type:: audio_play_state
+
+The following values can be returned by the AUDIO_GET_STATUS call
+representing the state of audio playback.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef enum {
+ AUDIO_STOPPED,
+ AUDIO_PLAYING,
+ AUDIO_PAUSED
+ } audio_play_state_t;
+
+
+.. c:type:: audio_channel_select
+
+The audio channel selected via AUDIO_CHANNEL_SELECT is determined by
+the following values.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef enum {
+ AUDIO_STEREO,
+ AUDIO_MONO_LEFT,
+ AUDIO_MONO_RIGHT,
+ AUDIO_MONO,
+ AUDIO_STEREO_SWAPPED
+ } audio_channel_select_t;
+
+
+.. c:type:: audio_status
+
+The AUDIO_GET_STATUS call returns the following structure informing
+about various states of the playback operation.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef struct audio_status {
+ boolean AV_sync_state;
+ boolean mute_state;
+ audio_play_state_t play_state;
+ audio_stream_source_t stream_source;
+ audio_channel_select_t channel_select;
+ boolean bypass_mode;
+ audio_mixer_t mixer_state;
+ } audio_status_t;
+
+
+.. c:type:: audio_mixer
+
+The following structure is used by the AUDIO_SET_MIXER call to set the
+audio volume.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef struct audio_mixer {
+ unsigned int volume_left;
+ unsigned int volume_right;
+ } audio_mixer_t;
+

+.. _audio_encodings:
+
+audio encodings
+===============
+
+A call to AUDIO_GET_CAPABILITIES returns an unsigned integer with the
+following bits set according to the hardwares capabilities.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_DTS 1
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_LPCM 2
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_MP1 4
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_MP2 8
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_MP3 16
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_AAC 32
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_OGG 64
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_SDDS 128
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_AC3 256
