2012-07-06[media] v4l2-dev/ioctl.c: add vb2_queue support to video_deviceHans Verkuil
This prepares struct video_device for easier integration with vb2. It also introduces a new lock that protects the vb2_queue. It is up to the driver to use it or not. And the driver can associate an owner filehandle with the queue to check whether queuing requests are permitted for the calling filehandle.

2012-05-14[media] v4l2-dev.h: add comment not to use V4L2_FL_LOCK_ALL_FOPS in new driversHans Verkuil
This flag is for legacy drivers only and will go away in the future. A note regarding commit 5126f2590bee412e3053de851cb07f531e4be36a (v4l2-dev: add flag to have the core lock all file operations): That commit message suggests that by not taking the core lock for fops other than unlocked_ioctl all problems relating to AB-BA locking and mm->mmap_sem are solved. This is not the case. More work needs to be done by moving the core lock further down into video_ioctl2. It should only be taken after the copy_from/to_user calls are done.

2012-05-14[media] v4l2-dev: add flag to have the core lock all file operationsHans Verkuil
This used to be the default if the lock pointer was set, but now that lock is by default only used for ioctl serialization. Those drivers that already used core locking have this flag set explicitly, except for some drivers where it was obvious that there was no need to serialize any file operations other than ioctl. The drivers that didn't need this flag were: drivers/media/radio/dsbr100.c drivers/media/radio/radio-isa.c drivers/media/radio/radio-keene.c drivers/media/radio/radio-miropcm20.c drivers/media/radio/radio-mr800.c drivers/media/radio/radio-tea5764.c drivers/media/radio/radio-timb.c drivers/media/video/vivi.c sound/i2c/other/tea575x-tuner.c The other drivers that use core locking and where it was not immediately obvious that this flag wasn't needed were changed so that the flag is set together with a comment that that driver needs work to avoid having to set that flag. This will often involve taking the core lock in the fops themselves. Eventually this flag should go and it should not be used in new drivers. There are a few reasons why we want to avoid core locking of non-ioctl fops: in the case of mmap this can lead to a deadlock in rare situations since when mmap is called the mmap_sem is held and it is possible for other parts of the code to take that lock as well (copy_from_user()/copy_to_user() perform a down_read(&mm->mmap_sem) when a page fault occurs). It is very unlikely that that happens since the core lock serializes all fops, but the kernel warns about it if lock validation is turned on. For poll it is also undesirable to take the core lock as that can introduce increased latency. The same is true for read/write. While it was possible to make flags or something to turn on/off taking the core lock for each file operation, in practice it is much simpler to just not take it at all except for ioctl and leave it to the driver to take the lock. There are only a handful fops compared to the zillion ioctls we have. I also wanted to make it obvious which drivers still take the lock for all fops, so that's why I chose to have drivers set it explicitly.

2012-05-14[media] v4l2-dev/ioctl: determine the valid ioctls upfrontHans Verkuil
Rather than testing whether an ioctl is implemented in the driver or not every time the ioctl is called, do it upfront when the device is registered. This also allows a driver to disable certain ioctls based on the capabilities of the detected board, something you can't do today without creating separate v4l2_ioctl_ops structs for each new variation. For the most part it is pretty straightforward, but for control ioctls a flag is needed since it is possible that you have per-filehandle controls, and that can't be determined upfront of course.

2012-05-14[media] v4l2-dev: make it possible to skip locking for selected ioctlsHans Verkuil
Using the V4L2 core lock is a very robust method that is usually very good at doing the right thing. But some drivers, particularly USB drivers, may want to prevent the core from taking the lock for specific ioctls, particularly buffer queuing ioctls. The reason is that certain commands like S_CTRL can take a long time to process over USB and all the time the core has the lock, preventing VIDIOC_DQBUF from proceeding, even though a frame may be ready in the queue. This introduces unwanted latency. Since the buffer queuing commands often have their own internal lock it is often not necessary to take the core lock. Drivers can now say that they don't want the core to take the lock for specific ioctls. As it is a specific opt-out it makes it clear to the reviewer that those ioctls will need more care when reviewing.

2012-03-19[media] v4l: Add custom compat_ioctl32 operationLaurent Pinchart
Drivers implementing custom ioctls need to handle 32-bit/64-bit compatibility themselves. Provide them with a way to do so. To avoid circular module dependencies, merge the v4l2-compat-ioctl32 module into videodev. There is no point in keeping them separate, as the v4l2_compat_ioctl32() function is required by videodev if CONFIG_COMPAT is set anyway.

2010-10-21V4L/DVB: v4l2: add core serialization lockHans Verkuil
Drivers can optionally set a pointer to a mutex in struct video_device. The core will use that to lock before calling open, read, write, unlocked_ioctl, poll, mmap or release. Updated the documentation as well and ensure that v4l2-event knows about the lock: it will unlock it before doing a blocking wait on an event and relock it afterwards. Ensure that the 'video_is_registered' check is done when the lock is held: a typical disconnect will take the lock as well before unregistering the device nodes, so to prevent race conditions the video_is_registered check should also be done with the lock held.

2010-10-21V4L/DVB: videotext: remove this obsolete APIHans Verkuil
Remove the vtx (aka videotext aka teletext) API from the v4l2 core. This API was scheduled for removal in kernel 2.6.35. The vtx device nodes have been superseded by vbi device nodes for many years. No applications exist that use the vtx support. Of the two i2c drivers that actually support this API the saa5249 has been impossible to use for a year now and no known hardware that supports this device exists. The saa5246a is theoretically supported by the old mxb boards, but it never actually worked. In summary: there is no hardware that can use this API and there are no applications actually implementing this API. The vtx support still reserves minors 192-223 and we would really like to reuse those for upcoming new functionality. In the unlikely event that new hardware appears that wants to use the functionality provided by the vtx API, then that functionality should be build around the sliced VBI API instead.

2010-08-08V4L/DVB: v4l2: Add new control handling frameworkHans Verkuil
Add a new framework to handle controls which makes life for driver developers much easier. Note that this patch moves some of the control support that used to be in v4l2-common.c to v4l2-ctrls.c. The tables were copied unchanged. The body of v4l2_ctrl_query_fill() was copied to a new v4l2_ctrl_fill() function in v4l2-ctrls.c. This new function doesn't use the v4l2_queryctrl struct anymore, which makes it more general. The remainder of v4l2-ctrls.c is all new. Highlights include: - No need to implement VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL, QUERYMENU, S_CTRL, G_CTRL, S_EXT_CTRLS, G_EXT_CTRLS or TRY_EXT_CTRLS in either bridge drivers or subdevs. New wrapper functions are provided that can just be plugged in. Once everything has been converted these wrapper functions can be removed as well. - When subdevices are added their controls can be automatically merged with the bridge driver's controls. - Most drivers just need to implement s_ctrl to set the controls. The framework handles the locking and tries to be as 'atomic' as possible. - Ready for the subdev device nodes: the same mechanism applies to subdevs and their device nodes as well. Sub-device drivers can make controls local, preventing them from being merged with bridge drivers. - Takes care of backwards compatibility handling of VIDIOC_S_CTRL and VIDIOC_G_CTRL. Handling of V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE is fully transparent. CTRL_CLASS controls are automatically added.

2008-10-12V4L/DVB (9133): v4l: disconnect kernel number from minorHans Verkuil
The v4l core creates four different video devices (video, vbi, radio, vtx) and each has its own range of minor numbers. However, modern devices keep increasing the number of devices that they need so a maximum of 64 video devices will not be enough in the future. In addition this scheme makes it very hard to add new device types. This patch disconnects the kernel number allocation (e.g. video0, video1, etc.) from the actual minor number (just pick the first free minor). This allows for much more flexibility in the future. However, it does require the use of udev. For those who cannot use udev a new CONFIG option was created that changes the allocation scheme back to the old behavior. Thanks to Greg KH for suggesting this approach during the 2008 LPC. In addition, several bugs were fixed in the ivtv and cx18 drivers: these drivers try to allocate specific kernel numbers but that scheme contained a bug which caused what should have been e.g. video17 to appear as e.g. video2.

2008-07-20V4L/DVB (8078): Introduce "index" attribute for persistent video4linux ↵brandon@ifup.org
device nodes A number of V4L drivers have a mod param to specify their preferred minors. This is because it is often desirable for applications to have a static /dev name for a particular device. However, using minors has several disadvantages: 1) the requested minor may already be taken 2) using a mod param is driver specific 3) it requires every driver to add a param 4) requires configuration by hand This patch introduces an "index" attribute that when combined with udev rules can create static device paths like this: /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1d.2-usb-0\:1\:1.0-video0 /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1d.2-usb-0\:1\:1.0-video1 /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1d.2-usb-0\:1\:1.0-video2 $ ls -la /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1d.2-usb-0\:1\:1.0-video0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2008-04-28 00:02 /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000:00:1d.2-usb-0:1:1.0-video0 -> ../../video1 These paths are steady across reboots and should be resistant to rearranging across Kernel versions. video_register_device_index is available to drivers to request a specific index number.

2008-07-20V4L/DVB (7949): videodev: renamed the vidioc_*_fmt_* callbacksHans Verkuil
The naming for the callbacks that handle the VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT and VIDIOC_S/G/TRY_FMT ioctls was very confusing. Renamed it to match the v4l2_buf_type name. Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>
2008-07-20V4L/DVB (7948): videodev: add missing vidioc_try_fmt_sliced_vbi_output and ↵Hans Verkuil
VIDIOC_ENUMOUTPUT handling There was no vidioc_try_fmt_sliced_vbi_output, instead vidioc_try_fmt_vbi_output was reused. The VIDIOC_ENUMOUTPUT handling was missing altogether, even though the callback existed. Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>
