drivers/media remains under heavy development, so for video capture drivers
like yours you should always patch against either the mainline linux tree
or (preferred) the media_tree.git repo (git://linuxtv.org/media_tree.git,
master branch).
As per your suggestion, I've switched development to 3.18, and now I'm
nearly there in terms of v4l2-compliance (also see attachment).
There's only one failing test left, which is this one:
Streaming ioctls:
test read/write: OK
fail: v4l2-test-buffers.cpp(284): g_field() == V4L2_FIELD_ANY
fail: v4l2-test-buffers.cpp(611): buf.check(q, last_seq)
fail: v4l2-test-buffers.cpp(884): captureBufs(node, q, m2m_q, frame_count, false)
test MMAP: FAIL
test USERPTR: OK (Not Supported)
test DMABUF: Cannot test, specify --expbuf-device
Total: 45, Succeeded: 44, Failed: 1, Warnings: 0
Could you give some hints on what this means?
On a different note, I'm getting occasional warnings in syslog when I run
a regular video streaming application (e.g. cheese):

Does this mean the driver consumes too much CPU resources?
Thanks for your help & best regards, Florian
