Set by the 476 driver. 477 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-QUEUED`: 478 479 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_QUEUED`` 480 - 0x00000002 481 - Internally drivers maintain two buffer queues, an incoming and 482 outgoing queue. When this flag is set, the buffer is currently on 483 the incoming queue. It automatically moves to the outgoing queue 484 after the buffer has been filled (capture devices) or displayed 485 (output devices). Drivers set or clear this flag when the 486 ``VIDIOC_QUERYBUF`` ioctl is called. After (successful) calling 487 the ``VIDIOC_QBUF``\ ioctl it is always set and after 488 ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` always cleared. 489 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-DONE`: 490 491 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_DONE`` 492 - 0x00000004 493 - When this flag is set, the buffer is currently on the outgoing 494 queue, ready to be dequeued from the driver. Drivers set or clear 495 this flag when the ``VIDIOC_QUERYBUF`` ioctl is called. After 496 calling the ``VIDIOC_QBUF`` or ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` it is always 497 cleared. Of course a buffer cannot be on both queues at the same 498 time, the ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_QUEUED`` and ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_DONE`` flag 499 are mutually exclusive. They can be both cleared however, then the 500 buffer is in "dequeued" state, in the application domain so to 501 say. 502 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-ERROR`: 503 504 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_ERROR`` 505 - 0x00000040 506 - When this flag is set, the buffer has been dequeued successfully, 507 although the data might have been corrupted. This is recoverable, 508 streaming may continue as normal and the buffer may be reused 509 normally. Drivers set this flag when the ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` ioctl is 510 called. 511 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-IN-REQUEST`: 512 513 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_IN_REQUEST`` 514 - 0x00000080 515 - This buffer is part of a request that hasn't been queued yet. 516 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-KEYFRAME`: 517 518 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_KEYFRAME`` 519 - 0x00000008 520 - Drivers set or clear this flag when calling the ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` 521 ioctl. It may be set by video capture devices when the buffer 522 contains a compressed image which is a key frame (or field), i. e. 523 can be decompressed on its own. Also known as an I-frame. 524 Applications can set this bit when ``type`` refers to an output 525 stream. 526 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-PFRAME`: 527 528 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_PFRAME`` 529 - 0x00000010 530 - Similar to ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_KEYFRAME`` this flags predicted frames 531 or fields which contain only differences to a previous key frame. 532 Applications can set this bit when ``type`` refers to an output 533 stream. 534 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-BFRAME`: 535 536 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_BFRAME`` 537 - 0x00000020 538 - Similar to ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_KEYFRAME`` this flags a bi-directional 539 predicted frame or field which contains only the differences 540 between the current frame and both the preceding and following key 541 frames to specify its content. Applications can set this bit when 542 ``type`` refers to an output stream. 543 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-TIMECODE`: 544 545 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMECODE`` 546 - 0x00000100 547 - The ``timecode`` field is valid. Drivers set or clear this flag 548 when the ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` ioctl is called. Applications can set 549 this bit and the corresponding ``timecode`` structure when 550 ``type`` refers to an output stream. 551 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-PREPARED`: 552 553 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_PREPARED`` 554 - 0x00000400 555 - The buffer has been prepared for I/O and can be queued by the 556 application. Drivers set or clear this flag when the 557 :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYBUF`, 558 :ref:`VIDIOC_PREPARE_BUF <VIDIOC_QBUF>`, 559 :ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF` or 560 :ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <VIDIOC_QBUF>` ioctl is called. 561 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-NO-CACHE-INVALIDATE`: 562 563 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_NO_CACHE_INVALIDATE`` 564 - 0x00000800 565 - Caches do not have to be invalidated for this buffer. Typically 566 applications shall use this flag if the data captured in the 567 buffer is not going to be touched by the CPU, instead the buffer 568 will, probably, be passed on to a DMA-capable hardware unit for 569 further processing or output. This flag is ignored unless the 570 queue is used for :ref:`memory mapping <mmap>` streaming I/O and 571 reports :ref:`V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_MMAP_CACHE_HINTS 572 <V4L2-BUF-CAP-SUPPORTS-MMAP-CACHE-HINTS>` capability. 573 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-NO-CACHE-CLEAN`: 574 575 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_NO_CACHE_CLEAN`` 576 - 0x00001000 577 - Caches do not have to be cleaned for this buffer. Typically 578 applications shall use this flag for output buffers if the data in 579 this buffer has not been created by the CPU but by some 580 DMA-capable unit, in which case caches have not been used. This flag 581 is ignored unless the queue is used for :ref:`memory mapping <mmap>` 582 streaming I/O and reports :ref:`V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_MMAP_CACHE_HINTS 583 <V4L2-BUF-CAP-SUPPORTS-MMAP-CACHE-HINTS>` capability. 584 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-M2M-HOLD-CAPTURE-BUF`: 585 586 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_M2M_HOLD_CAPTURE_BUF`` 587 - 0x00000200 588 - Only valid if struct :c:type:`v4l2_requestbuffers` flag ``V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_M2M_HOLD_CAPTURE_BUF`` is 589 set. It is typically used with stateless decoders where multiple 590 output buffers each decode to a slice of the decoded frame. 591 Applications can set this flag when queueing the output buffer 592 to prevent the driver from dequeueing the capture buffer after 593 the output buffer has been decoded (i.e. the capture buffer is 594 'held'). If the timestamp of this output buffer differs from that 595 of the previous output buffer, then that indicates the start of a 596 new frame and the previously held capture buffer is dequeued. 597 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-LAST`: 598 599 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_LAST`` 600 - 0x00100000 601 - Last buffer produced by the hardware. mem2mem codec drivers set 602 this flag on the capture queue for the last buffer when the 603 :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYBUF` or 604 :ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <VIDIOC_QBUF>` ioctl is called. Due to 605 hardware limitations, the last buffer may be empty. In this case 606 the driver will set the ``bytesused`` field to 0, regardless of 607 the format. Any subsequent call to the 608 :ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <VIDIOC_QBUF>` ioctl will not block anymore, 609 but return an ``EPIPE`` error code. 610 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-CODECCONFIG`: 611 612 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_CODECCONFIG`` 613 - 0x00200000 > 614 - This flag may be set when the buffer only contains codec config 615 header, but does not contain any frame data. Usually the codec config 616 header is merged to the next idr frame, with the flag 617 ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_KEYFRAME``, but there is still some scenes that will 618 split the header and queue it separately. 619 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-REQUEST-FD`: 620 621 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_REQUEST_FD`` 622 - 0x00800000 > 623 - The ``request_fd`` field contains a valid file descriptor. 624 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-TIMESTAMP-MASK`: 625 626 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_MASK`` 627 - 0x0000e000 628 - Mask for timestamp types below. To test the timestamp type, mask 629 out bits not belonging to timestamp type by performing a logical 630 and operation with buffer flags and timestamp mask. 631 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-TIMESTAMP-UNKNOWN`: 632 633 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_UNKNOWN`` 634 - 0x00000000 635 - Unknown timestamp type. This type is used by drivers before Linux 636 3.9 and may be either monotonic (see below) or realtime (wall 637 clock). Monotonic clock has been favoured in embedded systems 638 whereas most of the drivers use the realtime clock. Either kinds 639 of timestamps are available in user space via 640 :c:func:`clock_gettime` using clock IDs ``CLOCK_MONOTONIC`` 641 and ``CLOCK_REALTIME``, respectively. 642 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-TIMESTAMP-MONOTONIC`: 643 644 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_MONOTONIC`` 645 - 0x00002000 646 - The buffer timestamp has been taken from the ``CLOCK_MONOTONIC`` 647 clock. To access the same clock outside V4L2, use 648 :c:func:`clock_gettime`. 649 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-TIMESTAMP-COPY`: 650 651 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_COPY`` 652 - 0x00004000 653 - The CAPTURE buffer timestamp has been taken from the corresponding 654 OUTPUT buffer. This flag applies only to mem2mem devices. 655 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-TSTAMP-SRC-MASK`: 656 657 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_MASK`` 658 - 0x00070000 659 - Mask for timestamp sources below. The timestamp source defines the 660 point of time the timestamp is taken in relation to the frame. 661 Logical 'and' operation between the ``flags`` field and 662 ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_MASK`` produces the value of the 663 timestamp source. Applications must set the timestamp source when 664 ``type`` refers to an output stream and 665 ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_COPY`` is set. 666 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-TSTAMP-SRC-EOF`: 667 668 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_EOF`` 669 - 0x00000000 670 - End Of Frame. The buffer timestamp has been taken when the last 671 pixel of the frame has been received or the last pixel of the 672 frame has been transmitted. In practice, software generated 673 timestamps will typically be read from the clock a small amount of 674 time after the last pixel has been received or transmitten, 675 depending on the system and other activity in it. 676 * .. _`V4L2-BUF-FLAG-TSTAMP-SRC-SOE`: 677 678 - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_SOE`` 679 - 0x00010000 680 - Start Of Exposure. The buffer timestamp has been taken when the 681 exposure of the frame has begun. This is only valid for the 682 ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE`` buffer type. 683 -- 0-DAY CI Kernel Test Service https://01.org/lkp
