2016-01-11[media] Postpone the addition of MEDIA_IOC_G_TOPOLOGYMauro Carvalho Chehab
There are a few discussions left with regards to this ioctl: 1) the name of the new structs will contain _v2_ on it? 2) what's the best alternative to avoid compat32 issues? Due to that, let's postpone the addition of this new ioctl to the next Kernel version, to give people more time to discuss it. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@osg.samsung.com>

2016-01-11[media] DocBook: move data types to a separate sectionMauro Carvalho Chehab
As MEDIA_IOC_G_TOPOLOGY shares the data types already declared for entities, pads and links, we should move those to a separate part of the document, and use cross-references where needed. So, move the following tables to a separate section at the DocBook: media-entity-type media-entity-flag media-pad-flag media-link-flag Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@osg.samsung.com>
2016-01-11[media] DocBook: MC: add the concept of interfacesMauro Carvalho Chehab

Cleanup the media controller entities description: - remove MEDIA_ENT_T_DEVNODE and MEDIA_ENT_T_V4L2_SUBDEV entity types, as they don't mean anything; - add MEDIA_ENT_T_UNKNOWN with a proper description; - remove ALSA and FB entity types. Those should not be used, as the types are deprecated. We'll soon be adidng ALSA, but with a different entity namespace; - improve the description of some entities.

2016-01-11[media] replace all occurrences of MEDIA_ENT_T_DEVNODE_DVBMauro Carvalho Chehab
Now that interfaces and entities are distinct, it makes no sense of keeping something named as MEDIA_ENT_T_DEVNODE_DVB_foo.

2015-12-18[media] DocBook media: update VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS documentationHans Verkuil
During the Seoul media workshop we decided to relax the VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS specification so it would no longer require drivers to validate the format field since almost no driver did that anyway. Instead drivers use the buffer size(s) based on the format type and the corresponding format fields and will ignore any other fields. If the size cannot be used an error is returned, otherwise the size is used as-is. Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hans.verkuil@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@osg.samsung.com>
2015-12-04[media] use https://linuxtv.org for LinuxTV URLsMauro Carvalho Chehab
While https was always supported on linuxtv.org, only in Dec 3 2015 the website is using valid certificates. As we're planning to drop pure http support on some future, change all references at the media subsystem to point to the https URL instead.

2015-11-19DocBook: only copy stuff to media_api if media xml is generatedMauro Carvalho Chehab
It is possible to use: make DOCBOOKS=device-drivers.xml htmldocs To produce just a few docbooks. In such case, the media docs won't be built, causing the makefile target to return an error. While this is ok for human eyes, if the above is used on an script, it would cause troubles. Fix it by only creating/filling the media_api directory if the media_api.xml is found at DOCBOOKS.

Replace the obsolete field ctrl_class with "which". Make sure it not used in future modules by commenting out the field with ifndef __KERNEL_ .

2015-11-17[media] DocBook media: s/input stream/capture stream/Hans Verkuil
The term "input stream" is confusing since it is not clear whether this is an input stream from the point of view of the application or from the point of view of the hardware.

Commit 5240f4e68d42 ("[media] DocBook/media/Makefile: Avoid make htmldocs to fail") introduced a mkdir which is always called through install_media_images from the Documentation/DocBook/Makefile htmldocs rule.

2015-10-07[media] dvb: Remove unused frontend sources at demux.h and sync docMauro Carvalho Chehab

2015-10-06[media] dvb: get rid of enum dmx_successMauro Carvalho Chehab

2015-10-06[media] DocBook: Move struct dmx_demux kABI doc to demux.hMauro Carvalho Chehab
The DocBook/media/dvb/kdapi.xml contains the description of the kABI for DVB. The problem is that, by being maintained on a separate file and not being updated for years, it got outdated. So, for example, some callback parameters were changed, but the DocBook were still using the old stuff. As a first step to fix it, let's move the documentation of struct dmx_demux into demux.h and fix the parameters used there. For now, don't document any other field nor touch the descriptions that got moved, letting this job to other patches. That makes easier to review the patch. PS.: Please notice that an additional patch will be needed in order to fix the return values (some uses non-existent return codes) and to the functions and callbacks mentioned at the descriptions.

2015-10-01[media] DocBook/media: clarify control documentationHans Verkuil
- Add missing V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_U32 documentation - Remove 'which are actually different on the hardware' sentence which is confusing. I think the idea was to let the user know that the step can be different for different hardware, but that's obvious because otherwise you wouldn't need to specify the step value. - Clarify that V4L2_CTRL_COMPOUND_TYPES also applies to arrays.
