2017-06-20[media] v4l2-core: Use kvmalloc() for potentially big allocationsTomasz Figa
There are multiple places where arrays or otherwise variable sized buffer are allocated through V4L2 core code, including things like controls, memory pages, staging buffers for ioctls and so on. Such allocations can potentially require an order > 0 allocation from the page allocator, which is not guaranteed to be fulfilled and is likely to fail on a system with severe memory fragmentation (e.g. a system with very long uptime). Since the memory being allocated is intended to be used by the CPU exclusively, we can consider using vmalloc() as a fallback and this is exactly what the recently merged kvmalloc() helpers do. A kmalloc() call is still attempted, even for order > 0 allocations, but it is done with __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWARN, with expectation of failing if requested memory is not available instantly. Only then the vmalloc() fallback is used. This should give us fast and more reliable allocations even on systems with higher memory pressure and/or more fragmentation, while still retaining the same performance level on systems not suffering from such conditions. While at it, replace explicit array size calculations on changed allocations with kvmalloc_array(). Purposedly not touching videobuf1, as it is deprecated, has only few users remaining and would rather be seen removed instead.

2017-01-27[media] media: Drop FSF's postal address from the source code filesSakari Ailus
Drop the FSF's postal address from the source code files that typically contain mostly the license text. Of the 628 removed instances, 578 are outdated. The patch has been created with the following command without manual edits: git grep -l "675 Mass Ave\|59 Temple Place\|51 Franklin St" -- \ drivers/media/ include/media|while read i; do i=$i perl -e ' open(F,"< $ENV{i}"); $a=join("", <F>); $a =~ s/[ \t]*\*\n.*You should.*\n.*along with.*\n.*(\n.*USA.*$)?\n//m && $a =~ s/(^.*)Or, (point your browser to) /$1To obtain the license, $2\n$1/m; close(F); open(F, "> $ENV{i}"); print F $a; close(F);'; done Signed-off-by: Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com>
2015-07-17[media] v4l2-event: v4l2_event_queue: do nothing if vdev == NULLHans Verkuil
If the vdev pointer == NULL, then just return. This makes it easier for subdev drivers to use this function without having to check if the sd->devnode pointer is NULL or not.

2014-05-23[media] v4l: Add source change eventArun Kumar K
This event indicates that the video device has encountered a source parameter change during runtime. This can typically be a resolution change detected by a video decoder OR a format change detected by an input connector. This needs to be nofified to the userspace and the application may be expected to reallocate buffers before proceeding. The application can subscribe to events on a specific pad or input port which it is interested in.

2013-02-05[media] V4L: Add v4l2_event_subdev_unsubscribe() helper functionSylwester Nawrocki
Add a v4l2 core helper function that can be used as the subdev .unsubscribe_event handler. This allows to eliminate some boilerplate from drivers that are only handling the control events.

2012-09-26[media] v4l2: make vidioc_(un)subscribe_event constHans Verkuil
Write-only ioctls should have a const argument in the ioctl op. Do this conversion for vidioc_(un)subscribe_event. Adding const for write-only ioctls was decided during the 2012 Media Workshop.
