Hi Mauro,

Please pull from http://www.linuxtv.org/hg/~hverkuil/v4l-dvb for the 
following:

- radio: remove uaccess include
- omap24xxcam: don't set vfl_type.

This should fix the daily build (for probably 10 seconds :-) ).

Thanks,

Hans

Sure, I can add some comments outlining future developments in 
v4l2-device.h and v4l2-subdev.h. The v4l2-framework document can point 
to those headers (headers are easier to keep in sync when new features 
arrive than documentation).

But I'll wait with this until I get Mauro's review back, just in case 
there are more changes for me to do.

Regards,

Hans

Maybe instead we should have a TODO list somewhere with the programmed changes,

You're right. It might be useful to state that the API is a work in progress 
in the documentation, but I'll let you decide on that.

Not at the Kconfig level, just in the documentation (and possible headers).

This is a work in progress. Hans wants the changes to go mainline to get 
broader testing, which is a valid reason, but I'd like to make sure people 
understand that more changes are coming.

Isn't it good time to move v4l2-dvb tree to GIT? I am not aware of any
hg-to-git repo. converter, but I can check with hg and git community.
It could be difficult at first, but I am very confident that there are

This is one of the lack of the features on mercurial. It doesn't have a meta
tag for committer. On mercurial, the -hg user and the author should be the same
person.

Since we want to identify the patch origin (e.g. whose v4l/dvb maintainer got
the patch), we use the internal "user" meta-tag as the committer, and an extra
tag, at the patch description for the author (From:).

When creating the -git patch, the "From:" tag is replaced, by script, for
"Author:", I add my SOB there, and, I add myself as the -git committer (on git
we have both meta-tags).

Mauro

The hg author field is just whoever committed it into the mercurial 
repository, but what will show up when merged into the kernel are the 
From: and SoB fields. Actually, those were wrong as I had you as author 
(From:) instead of Sakari. I've changed that now.

It looks like this now:

 omap2: add OMAP2 camera driver.
 
 From: Sakari Ailus <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
 
 Add a driver for the OMAP2 camera block. OMAP2 is used in e.g. Nokia
 N800/N810 internet tablet.
 
 This driver uses the V4L2 internal ioctl interface.

Using v4l2_i2c_new_subdev or v4l2_i2c_new_probed_subdev should make it 
much easier to switch over. It certainly simplified it for ivtv.

I would like to state again that I have no plans to rename it. There is 
a chance that it will be used by the dvb subsystem as well in the 
future, but that's not going to happen any time soon. But should that 
happen, then we might consider renaming it to 
media_device/media_subdev. However, right now it is very much v4l2 
specific code. I think it more likely that if this is used in dvb then 
it would be for v4l2 functionality, not dvb functionality.

There will definitely be future additions since this is only the first 
step. Things on my list: better framework support for controls, 
v4l2_prio handling, adding a similar v4l2_fh struct for 
filehandle-specific data and the media controller which has been 
discussed in earlier RFCs and that requires these fundamental data 
structs to be in place first.

Replacing the v4l2-int-device.h API with v4l2_subdev and adding support 
for sensor drivers to the v4l2_subdev ops will also no doubt require 
additions.

But I want to do this step by step. It's just humanly impossible to go 
for a Big Bang here. Each time something gets added there must be at 
least one driver actually using it so you have some confidence in the 
change. Just integrating these simple v4l2_device and v4l2_subdev 
structs will take a fair amount of time.

Hans

It also seems a bit early to me, but it may work. I'll try to schedule some
time this week for a deep review.

IMO, this is one of the top priorities: the old-style i2c used on some bridge
drivers like saa7134 and cx88 are causing malfunctions that can't be easily
solved. I would like to see a fix for this for 2.6.29.

I only send Linus the patches that are already ok, but I generally prefer to
postpone a merge for the end of a merge window, when the patch is not meant to
be at the next version.

Hmm... why? it would be better to try to have the KABI changes for it at the
same kernel release if possible.

This makes sense to me.

Are you meaning marking this as experimental at Kconfig? This seems too
complex, since we'll need to test for some var on every driver that were
converted, providing two KABI options for each converted driver (the legacy and
the v4l2_device way). This doesn't seem to be a good idea, since will add a lot
of extra complexity to debug bugs.

I would say 2.6.29 is a bit early, but I can live with that.

In a few months time (probably even earlier) the v4l2_device structure will be 
reworked (and possible renamed). I'm fine with it going to linux-next now if 
we agree on the following.

- We should only advocate v4l2_device usage for subdevices-aware video 
devices. Porting all drivers to v4l2_device is currently pointless and will 
only make future transitions more difficult.

- v4l2_device should be marked as experimental. I don't want to hear any 
API/ABI breakage argument in a few months time when the f

They will of course go to linux-next and end up in 2.6.29 when the merge 
window opens. It's obviously not for 2.6.28.

Yes, I want to add more features to them, but those additions need a lot 
more thought. Currently the new subdev support is the most important 
feature of this and the reason is the introduction of v4l2-int-device 
and soc-camera: both are recent arrivals and neither was reviewed 
properly. As a result we now see i2c drivers arriving that can only 
work with v4l2-int-device or with soc-camera infrastructure. This is 
very undesirable and must be fixed asap. And v4l2_subdev is the way to 
do this. Existing i2c drivers are not affected and when these changes 
are in we can start to replace v4l2-int-device.h and to modify 
soc-camera to use v4l2_subdev as well.

In addition, these changes make it easier as well to use the new i2c API 
in bridge drivers (in 2.6.29 the old-style I2C probing will be 
deprecated, so we need to convert). So we get many benefits with just 
these changes.

Of course, I want to add more v4l2 framework support to these new 
structures, but I don't have any code yet for that anyway, just lots of 
ideas. Start simple, then expand.

I am all for pushing the changes to the v4l-dvb repository so they can get 
broader testing. I am, however, a bit more concerned about pushing the 
changes to Linus yet. Shouldn't it wait until you convert other drivers and 
make the v4l2_device (infra)structure more powerful, as you announced you 
would ? There will probably be API/ABI breakage then, it patches will 
probably benefit from a few iterations in v4l-dvb before we push them to 
mainline.

I don't know if that's possible at all, or if all changes in v4l-dvb are 
automatically selected for a push to the git repository whenever Mauro 
triggers the hg->git process.

Best regards,

Laurent Pinchart

That's basically why I want this to go into the v4l-dvb repository: this 
makes it easier for people to start working with it. It doesn't affect 
existing drivers, except for the i2c driver changes and those changes 
are just transforming a big switch to a set of functions. So I really 
consider this a pretty low-risk merge.

If someone is willing to do some testing with my tree in the next two 
weeks then I don't mind waiting, but it's been in development now from 
early September (if not earlier) and been reviewed several times. In 
addition, ivtv has been modified to work with it and that driver uses 
more sub-devices by far than any other driver.

I don't know what more I can do, to be honest.

Hans

No, see v4l2_subdev_command() in v4l2-subdev.c: this adds the required 
backwards compatibility. It can be removed once everyone uses the new 
calling convention, but until that time it will take care of this. 
That's the nice thing about it: you can do the conversion step by step 
without worrying about breaking existing drivers.

Hans

Does linuxtv.org and Mercurial provide the necessary infrastructure to 
integrate those changes into the v4l-dvb repository while not pushing them 
upstream yet ? I'd like to see more people testing (and breaking and 
fixing :-)) your changes before they reach the mainline kernel.

Hmm.. wouldn't this break the other drivers that use the converted i2c drivers
(for example saa7115 and msp3400 are used for other drivers, like em28xx and
bttv).
