Thank you for the information, this is very interesting.
To be more precise, what is needed is a way to use the same buffer in
acquisition (V4L2 API) and as input to an encoder or the previewer,
and avoid any memcpy.

Currently (2.6.32 + DVSDK) , a buffer can be allocated using cmem, and
it can be used  within the V4L2 stack using user pointer IO.

Is that possible using mmap ? If I remember correctly, allocation
fails when working with multimegapixel input.
