[PATCH v5 16/39] [media] v4l2: add a new-frame before end-of-frame event

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

 



Add a NEW_FRAME_BEFORE_EOF event to signal that a video capture or
output device has signaled a new frame is ready before a previous
frame has completed reception or transmission. This usually indicates
a DMA read/write channel is having trouble gaining bus access.
