This series implement Hans's RFC: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg244455.html To summarize Hans's proposal it is needed to distinguish two cases: - the minimal number of buffers to be allocated when calling VIDIOC_REQBUFS. - the minimale number of buffers to be present before start streaming (mostly for DMA engine purpose). Until now drivers use vb2_queue min_buffers_needed field in the both cases but before introduce delete buffers we need to clarify for which usage each of them use min_buffers_needed field. I have done this in 3 steps: - add min_reqbufs_allocation field and convert all the drivers that I believe use min_buffers_needed field for VIDIOC_REQBUF purpose. - add min_dma_buffers_needed field and convert all the drivers with DMA engine needs. - remove min_buffers_needed from videobuf2 core. The branch with all patches is here: https://gitlab.collabora.com/benjamin.gaignard/for-upstream/-/commits/clean_min_need_buffers_v1 I have tested with this command line, I haven't notice issues:
