[RFC/PATCH 09/10] v4l: Make video_device inherit from media_entity

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

 



V4L2 devices are media entities. As such they need to inherit from
(include) the media_entity structure.

When registering/unregistering the device, the media entity is
automatically registered/unregistered. The entity is acquired on device
open and released on device close.
