Status of v4l2_subdev conversion

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Mauro,

For your information, this is the current status:

- Steve Toth tested the HVR-1800 for me, so I've posted the pull request for 
the converted cx23885 driver.

- The cx88 driver is also finished. I'm waiting for a last test by Jean 
Delvare before I post that one as well.

- Added support for saa6588 to saa7134: needed to drop the legacy i2c API 
from saa6588. This is in my pull request for my v4l-dvb tree.

- Douglas has almost finished the em28xx driver conversion.

- Jean Delvare is working on the ir-kbd-i2c conversion.

That last conversion is stand-alone (i.e. has no impact on the internal v4l 
API) and I don't think it prevents pushing our v4l-dvb changes to 2.6.30.

When the first four items are finished and merged into v4l-dvb, then I have 
a to do a few final cleanup actions to make everything ready for the 2.6.30 
merge:

- Remove v4l2-i2c-drv-legacy.h from the remaining i2c drivers. Remove the 
files v4l2-i2c-drv-legacy.h and v4l2-common.c since these are no longer 
used. Cleanup v4l2-common.h since the internal ioctls are no longer needed. 
Update v4l2-framework.txt, removing any references to the legacy behavior.

- Fix two subdev callbacks that are in the wrong place (s_std belongs to the 
video ops, s_standby belongs to the tuner ops).

- Add a load_fw callback to the core ops and use that were appropriate 
instead of the init callback. Analyze whether the init callback can be 
removed altogether.

- Analyze how the probe addresses are used in the v4l2 drivers and move 
those lists over to the appropriate i2c driver headers.

- Add enum_frameintervals and enum_framesizes callbacks for use with omap.

- Check for any remaining uses of I2C_DRIVERID and remove them.

This shouldn't take much time to implement.

Regards,

        Hans
