My biggest question is why don't we use the media controller API to get the information provided by this new ioctl ? > Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hans.verkuil@xxxxxxxxx> > --- > drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-common.c | 5 +- > drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c | 5 +- > drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.c | 115 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- > include/media/v4l2-ioctl.h | 3 + > include/uapi/linux/videodev2.h | 34 +++++++--- > 5 files changed, 146 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) [snip] > diff --git a/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c > b/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c index de1e9ab..c0c651d 100644 > --- a/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c > +++ b/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c > @@ -591,9 +591,10 @@ static void determine_valid_ioctls(struct video_device [snip] > +static int v4l_dbg_g_chip_name(const struct v4l2_ioctl_ops *ops, > + struct file *file, void *fh, void *arg) As this is a debug ioctl that should never be used in application, I would like to guard the whole implementation with #ifdef CONFIG_VIDEO_ADV_DEBUG. This will make sure that no applications will abuse it, as it won't be available in distro kernels. > +{ > + struct video_device *vfd = video_devdata(file); > + struct v4l2_dbg_chip_name *p = arg; > + struct v4l2_subdev *sd; > + int idx = 0; > + > + switch (p->match.type) { > + case V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_BRIDGE: > +#ifdef CONFIG_VIDEO_ADV_DEBUG > + if (ops->vidioc_s_register) > + p->flags |= V4L2_CHIP_FL_WRITABLE; > + if (ops->vidioc_g_register) > + p->flags |= V4L2_CHIP_FL_READABLE; > +#endif > + if (ops->vidioc_g_chip_name) > + return ops->vidioc_g_chip_name(file, fh, arg); > + if (p->match.addr) > + return -EINVAL; > + if (vfd->v4l2_dev) > + strlcpy(p->name, vfd->v4l2_dev->name, sizeof(p->name)); > + else if (vfd->parent) > + strlcpy(p->name, vfd->parent->driver->name, sizeof(p->name)); > + else > + strlcpy(p->name, "bridge", sizeof(p->name)); > + return 0; > + > + case V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_SUBDEV_IDX: > + case V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_SUBDEV_NAME: > + if (vfd->v4l2_dev == NULL) > + break; > + v4l2_device_for_each_subdev(sd, vfd->v4l2_dev) { > + if (v4l_dbg_found_match(&p->match, sd, idx++)) { > +#ifdef CONFIG_VIDEO_ADV_DEBUG > + if (sd->ops->core && sd->ops->core->s_register) > + p->flags |= V4L2_CHIP_FL_WRITABLE; > + if (sd->ops->core && sd->ops->core->g_register) > + p->flags |= V4L2_CHIP_FL_READABLE; > +#endif > + strlcpy(p->name, sd->name, sizeof(p->name)); > + return 0; > + } > + } > + break; > + } > + return -EINVAL; > +} -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
