[PATCH 1/2] vb2: Add VB2_FILEIO_ALLOW_ZERO_BYTESUSED flag to vb2_fileio_flags

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

 



The vb2: fix bytesused == 0 handling (8a75ffb) patch changed the behavior
of __fill_vb2_buffer function, so that if bytesused is 0 it is set to the
size of the buffer. However, bytesused set to 0 is used by older codec
drivers as as indication used to mark the end of stream.

To keep backward compatibility, this patch adds a flag passed to the
vb2_queue_init function - VB2_FILEIO_ALLOW_ZERO_BYTESUSED. If the flag is
set upon initialization of the queue, the videobuf2 keeps the value of
bytesused intact and passes it to the driver.
