As I am new to v4l2-events itself, I might have some noob questions.
I understood filling pad index into id field. But for video nodes,
the application is supposed to put v4l2_buf_type in the id field?

If I understand correctly, the implementation should go somewhat in the
following lines:
+void v4l2_event_src_replace(struct v4l2_event *old, const struct
v4l2_event *new)
+{
+ u32 old_changes = old->u.src_change.changes;
+
+ old->u.src_change = new->u.src_change;
+ old->u.src_change.changes |= old_changes;
+}
+
+void v4l2_event_src_merge(const struct v4l2_event *old, struct
v4l2_event *new)
+{
+ new->u.src_change.changes |= old->u.src_change.changes;
+}
+
+const struct v4l2_subscribed_event_ops v4l2_event_src_ch_ops = {
+ .replace = v4l2_event_src_replace,
+ .merge = v4l2_event_src_merge,
+};
+
+int v4l2_src_change_event_subscribe(struct v4l2_fh *fh,
+ const struct v4l2_event_subscription *sub)
+{
+ if (sub->type == V4L2_EVENT_SOURCE_CHANGE)
+ return v4l2_event_subscribe(fh, sub, 0,
&v4l2_event_src_ch_ops);
+ return -EINVAL;
+}
And v4l2-event.c is the right place to put it?
And in the videodev2.h file:
+#define V4L2_EVENT_SRC_CH_RESOLUTION (1 << 0)
+#define V4L2_EVENT_SRC_CH_FORMAT (1 << 1)
+
+struct v4l2_event_src_change {
+ __u32 changes;
+};
+
struct v4l2_event {
__u32 type;
union {
struct v4l2_event_vsync vsync;
struct v4l2_event_ctrl ctrl;
struct v4l2_event_frame_sync frame_sync;
+ struct v4l2_event_src_change src_change;
__u8 data[64];
} u;
__u32 pending;
Please correct me if my understanding is totally wrong here?
