[PATCH/RFC] V4L2: add a generic function to find the nearest discrete format

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

 



Many video drivers implement a discrete set of frame formats and thus face 
a task of finding the best match for a user-requested format. Implementing 
this in a generic function has also an advantage, that different drivers 
with similar supported format sets will select the same format for the 
user, which improves consistency across drivers.

I'm currently away from my hardware, so, this is only compile tested and 
run-time tested with a test application. In any case, reviews and 
suggestions welcome.
