Subject: media: v4l2-subdev: Add new ioctl for client capabilities
Author: Tomi Valkeinen <tomi.valkei...@ideasonboard.com>
Date: Thu Mar 23 13:58:35 2023 +0000
Add new ioctls to set and get subdev client capabilities. Client in this
context means the userspace application which opens the subdev device
node. The client capabilities are stored in the file handle of the
opened subdev device node, and the client must set the capabilities for
each opened subdev.
For now we only add a single flag, V4L2_SUBDEV_CLIENT_CAP_STREAMS, which
indicates that the client is streams-aware.
The reason for needing such a flag is as follows:
Many structs passed via ioctls, e.g. struct v4l2_subdev_format, contain
reserved fields (usually a single array field). These reserved fields
can be used to extend the ioctl. The userspace is required to zero the
reserved fields.
We recently added a new 'stream' field to many of these structs, and the
space for the field was taken from these reserved arrays. The assumption
was that these new 'stream' fields are always initialized to zero if the
userspace does not use them. This was a mistake, as, as mentioned above,
the userspace is required to zero the _reserved_ fields. In other words,
there is no requirement to zero this new stream field, and if the
userspace doesn't use the field (which is the case for all userspace
applications at the moment), the field may contain random data.
This shows that the way the reserved fields are defined in v4l2 is, in
my opinion, somewhat broken, but there is nothing to do about that.
To fix this issue we need a way for the userspace to tell the kernel
that the userspace has indeed set the 'stream' field, and it's fine for
the kernel to access it. This is achieved with the new ioctl, which the
userspace should usually use right after opening the subdev device node.

+

+
+``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_CLIENT_CAP, struct
v4l2_subdev_client_capability *argp)``
+
+.. c:macro:: VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_CLIENT_CAP
+
+``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_CLIENT_CAP, struct

+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
+
+``argp``
+ Pointer to struct :c:type:`v4l2_subdev_client_capability`.
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These ioctls are used to get and set the client (the application using the
+subdevice ioctls) capabilities. The client capabilities are stored in the file
+handle of the opened subdev device node, and the client must set the
+capabilities for each opened subdev separately.
+
+By default no client capabilities are set when a subdev device node is opened.
+
+The purpose of the client capabilities are to inform the kernel of the behavior
+of the client, mainly related to maintaining compatibility with different
+kernel and userspace versions.
+
+The ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_CLIENT_CAP`` ioctl returns the current client
capabilities
+associated with the file handle ``fd``.
+
+The ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_CLIENT_CAP`` ioctl sets client capabilities for the file
+handle ``fd``. The new capabilities fully replace the current capabilities, the
+ioctl can therefore also be used to remove capabilities that have previously
+been set.
+
+``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_CLIENT_CAP`` modifies the struct
+:c:type:`v4l2_subdev_client_capability` to reflect the capabilities that have
+been accepted. A common case for the kernel not accepting a capability is that
+the kernel is older than the headers the userspace uses, and thus the
capability
+is unknown to the kernel.
+
+.. flat-table:: Client Capabilities
+ :header-rows: 1
+
+ * - Capability
+ - Description
+ * - ``V4L2_SUBDEV_CLIENT_CAP_STREAMS``
+ - The client is aware of streams. Setting this flag enables the use
+ of 'stream' fields (referring to the stream number) with various
+ ioctls. If this is not set (which is the default), the 'stream' fields
+ will be forced to 0 by the kernel.
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
+
+ENOIOCTLCMD
+ The kernel does not support this ioctl.
