[PATCH v5 1/3] media: videodev2: Add flag to unconditionnaly enumerate pixels formats

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

 



When the index field is ORed with V4L2_FMT_FLAG_ENUM_ALL the driver
will ignore any configuration and enumerate all the possible formats.
Drivers which do not support this flag yet always return an EINVAL
error code.

changes in version 5:
- Reset the proposal to follow Hans's advices
- Add new flag to be used with index field.
