Hans Verkuil (4):
V4L: fix incorrect refcounting.
V4L2: drivers implementing vidioc_default should also return -ENOTTY
v4l2-ctrls.c: zero min/max/step/def values for 64 bit integers.
Thanks for the patches.
I'd put the setting of the min/max/step values for 64-bit controls to
v4l2_ctrl_new() instead for two reasons:
- All 64-bit controls require this for the time being, independent of the
purpose, at least until min/max/step are implemented for them and
- that's where part of the string control initialisation is done as well.
What do you think?
I disagree :-)
v4l2_ctrl_fill is the only function at the moment that fills in these fields.
Doing it elsewhere just for that type is inconsistent.
Also, v4l2_ctrl_fill is also called by some older drivers that do not use the
control framework yet, so it really has to be done there.
Ok; after taking another look there I agree with you.
Another matter is that ivtv-controls.c uses non-zero max and step values for
these 64 bit controls, that should be fixed as well.
Right. Feel free to add to that patch:
Acked-by: Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@xxxxxx>
I think that in the long run we'll need to add capability to get
min/max/step for 64-bit controls also to user space, but the information
could be added to the controls in the kernel already earlier.
It wouldn't be difficult to make min/max/def of type s64. At this moment I do
not see a compelling reason, but if we get more 64-bit integer controls that
do need this, then we will have to add it.
The controls the SMIA++ driver uses these for are also read-only and so
set by the driver. Once we get controls that would benefit from
min/max/step they should be added at the same time.
