Re: Compiling STK1160 driver for Android
Hi, guys! I have: 1. 05e1:0408 USB ID STK1160 chip GM7113 (SAA7113 clone) video processor device. 2. Google Nexus 5 LG D821 Hammerhead smartphone. I need compile STK1160 driver for Android. EasyCap driver can be found in CyanogenMod (Android based OS) git (https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_lge_hammerhead/search?q=easycap) Looks like Ezequiel Garcia commited it (it is signed-off-by: Ezequiel Garcia elezegar...@gmail.com and Mauro Carvalho Chehab mche...@redhat.com). But it is the old driver by Mike Thomas. I successfully compiled this old driver by Mike Thomas as kernel module (easycap.ko) for my smartphone. It is working, but very very bad. It don't work without bars=0 key and I have only 12 fps (instead of 25 fps as expected). Any ideas why? I think the problem is in driver. What about new STK1160 driver by Ezequiel Garcia? Can I extract it from latest Linux kernel (stable 3.17.3 or mainline 3.18-rc5 or linux-next) and compile it for Android/CyanogenMod (without or with small changes in source code)? The new driver by Ezequiel Garcia can be found in AOSP git (https://google.com/search?q=stk1160+site%3Aandroid.googlesource.com), but, unfortunately, only for kernel versions 3.10+. But I need compile the new driver for kernel version 3.4 (for my Nexus 5). Hope for your help. Thanks in advance!

With regards to the low frame rate, this is likely due to cache coherency differences between x86 and arm. There are some tricks to properly allocate memory for it to work fine on ARM. Those tricks depend on the Kernel version. On modern Kernels, this is a way easier than on 3.4, as newer Kernels got a new DMA core code with makes easier to make the same driver to work fine on both x86 and arm.

Not sure what changes will be required. The linux-backport and media_build trees may help you to identify what's needed.
