[PATCH v3 0/2] media: platform: Add Aspeed Video Engine Driver

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

 



The Video Engine (VE) embedded in the Aspeed AST2400 and AST2500 SOCs
can capture and compress video data from digital or analog sources. With
the Aspeed chip acting as a service processor, the Video Engine can
capture the host processor graphics output.

This series adds a V4L2 driver for the VE, providing the usual V4L2 streaming
interface by way of videobuf2. Each frame, the driver triggers the hardware to
capture the host graphics output and compress it to JPEG format.

I was unable to cross compile v4l2-compliance for ARM with our OpenBMC
toolchain. Although bootstrap, configure, and make were successful, no binaries
were generated... I was able to build v4l-utils 1.12.3 from the OpenEmbedded
project, with the output below:

Total: 47, Succeeded: 47, Failed: 0, Warnings: 1

Changes since v2:
 - Switch to streaming interface. This involved a lot of changes.
 - Rework memory allocation due to using videobuf2 buffers, but also only
   allocate the necessary size of source buffer rather than the max size

Changes since v1:
 - Removed le32_to_cpu calls for JPEG header data
 - Reworked v4l2 ioctls to be compliant.
 - Added JPEG controls
 - Updated devicetree docs according to Rob's suggestions.
 - Added myself to MAINTAINERS
