This driver was developed as v4l2-sub device and I just add the soc-camera support. Doing what are you suggesting is not compatible with the v4l2-sub device support, in fact the I2C platform_data is used to know if the driver must enable soc-camera or not... Look the code: static __devinit int adv7180_probe(struct i2c_client *client, const struct i2c_device_id *id) { struct adv7180_state *state; struct soc_camera_device *icd = client->dev.platform_data; icd is set as client->dev.platform_data. This can be use for normal I2C devices to hold custom platform_data initialization. struct soc_camera_link *icl; struct adv7180_platform_data *pdata = NULL; struct v4l2_subdev *sd; int ret; /* Check if the adapter supports the needed features */ if (!i2c_check_functionality(client->adapter, I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_BYTE_DATA)) return -EIO; v4l_info(client, "chip found @ 0x%02x (%s)\n", client->addr << 1, client->adapter->name); if (icd) { If the icd is set we assume it holds a soc-camera struct. icl = to_soc_camera_link(icd); if (!icl || !icl->priv) { v4l_err(client, "missing platform data!\n"); return -EINVAL; } icd->ops = &adv7180_soc_ops; If soc-camera is defined we set some info in order to enable it... v4l_info(client, "soc-camera support enabled\n"); } ...otherwise the driver works in the old way. state = kzalloc(sizeof(struct adv7180_state), GFP_KERNEL); if (state == NULL) { ret = -ENOMEM; goto err; } state->irq = client->irq; INIT_WORK(&state->work, adv7180_work); mutex_init(&state->mutex); state->autodetect = true; sd = &state->sd; v4l2_i2c_subdev_init(sd, client, &adv7180_ops); Ciao, Rodolfo -- GNU/Linux Solutions e-mail: giometti@xxxxxxxxxxxx Linux Device Driver giometti@xxxxxxxx Embedded Systems phone: +39 349 2432127 UNIX programming skype: rodolfo.giometti Freelance ICT Italia - Consulente ICT Italia - www.consulenti-ict.it -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
