UVC with continuous video buffers.

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

 



Hi,
we have a system with a UVC camera connected to USB to acquire video
images and a hardware processor which needs continuous memory buffers
to process them.

I've been looking at the current version of UVC drivers and it seems
it allocates buffers using vmalloc_32() call:
http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v3.1/drivers/media/video/uvc/uvc_queue.c#L135

I am interested to extend the driver to support contiguous memory
buffers and send it to mainline. What is the right way to achieve
this? Can anyone please point me to a video driver example where
continuous memory allocation is used?

Thank you.
