[PATCH v3 0/2] media: v4l2-subdev: Support const-awareness in state accessors

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

 



This small patch series comes from a mild annoyance I experienced during
a recent patch review, where I wanted to ask for a pointer to a
v4l2_subdev_state used to access the state in a read-only fashion to be
made const. This wasn't possible as the state accessors functions take a
non-const state pointer, in order to return pointers to mutable formats
and selection rectangles.

Patch 1/2 improves the state accessors to support const states, in the
same wait as the recently introduced container_of_const() macro.
Bikeshedding of the internal macro and function names is expected. Patch
2/2 then shows how this can be used in one driver.

Compared to v2, patch 1/2 uses explicit types as _Generic() selectors,
and fixes an issue with the const cast of the value.
