2008-10-12V4L/DVB (9133): v4l: disconnect kernel number from minorHans Verkuil
The v4l core creates four different video devices (video, vbi, radio, vtx) and each has its own range of minor numbers. However, modern devices keep increasing the number of devices that they need so a maximum of 64 video devices will not be enough in the future. In addition this scheme makes it very hard to add new device types. This patch disconnects the kernel number allocation (e.g. video0, video1, etc.) from the actual minor number (just pick the first free minor). This allows for much more flexibility in the future. However, it does require the use of udev. For those who cannot use udev a new CONFIG option was created that changes the allocation scheme back to the old behavior. Thanks to Greg KH for suggesting this approach during the 2008 LPC. In addition, several bugs were fixed in the ivtv and cx18 drivers: these drivers try to allocate specific kernel numbers but that scheme contained a bug which caused what should have been e.g. video17 to appear as e.g. video2.

2008-10-12V4L/DVB (8852): v4l2: use register_chrdev_region instead of register_chrdevHans Verkuil
Replace the old register_chrdev with the more flexible register_chrdev_region. Ensure that the release() is called when the very last chardev usage was released, and not when the sysfs devices were removed. This should simplify hotpluggable drivers considerably.

2008-07-20V4L/DVB (8078): Introduce "index" attribute for persistent video4linux ↵brandon@ifup.org
device nodes A number of V4L drivers have a mod param to specify their preferred minors. This is because it is often desirable for applications to have a static /dev name for a particular device. However, using minors has several disadvantages: 1) the requested minor may already be taken 2) using a mod param is driver specific 3) it requires every driver to add a param 4) requires configuration by hand This patch introduces an "index" attribute that when combined with udev rules can create static device paths like this: /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1d.2-usb-0\:1\:1.0-video0 /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1d.2-usb-0\:1\:1.0-video1 /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1d.2-usb-0\:1\:1.0-video2 $ ls -la /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1d.2-usb-0\:1\:1.0-video0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2008-04-28 00:02 /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000:00:1d.2-usb-0:1:1.0-video0 -> ../../video1 These paths are steady across reboots and should be resistant to rearranging across Kernel versions. video_register_device_index is available to drivers to request a specific index number.

2008-02-18V4L/DVB (7133): Fix Kconfig dependenciesMauro Carvalho Chehab
As pointed by Adrian Bunk, with I2C=m and VIDEO_DEV=y, videodev brokes. This patch moves the functions that videodev needs from v4l2-common. It also fixes some Kconfig changes. After this patch, I2C=m / VIDEO_DEV=y will make v4l2 core statically linked into kernel. v4l2-common will be m, and all V4L drivers will also be m. This approach is very conservative, since it is possible to have V4L drivers that don't need I2C or v4l2-common. The better is to map what drivers really need v4l2-common, making them to select v4l2-common, and allowing the others to be 'y', 'm' and 'n'.

2007-02-21V4L/DVB (5146): Make VIDIOC_INT_[SG]_REGISTER ioctls no longer internal onlyTrent Piepho
The direct register access ioctls were defined as kernel internal only, but they are very useful for debugging hardware from userspace and are used as such. Officially export them. VIDIOC_INT_[SG]_REGISTER is renamed to VIDIOC_DBG_[SG]_REGISTER Definition of ioctl and struct v4l2_register is moved from v4l2-common.h to videodev2.h. Types used in struct v4l2_register are changed to the userspace exportable versions (u32 -> __u32, etc). Use of VIDIOC_DBG_S_REGISTER requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN permission, so move the check into the video_ioctl2() dispatcher so it doesn't need to be duplicated in each driver's call-back function. CAP_SYS_ADMIN check is added to pvrusb2 (which doesn't use video_ioctl2). Signed-off-by: Trent Piepho <xyzzy@speakeasy.org> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>

video_ioctl2 will auto-generate standard entries at ENUM_FMT. Also, now, a driver may return a subset of the video array at the return, to be stored as the current_norm. For example, a driver may ask for V4L2_STD_PAL. At return, driver may change it to V4L2_STD_PAL_B. This way, a futher call to G_STD will return the exact detected video std.

V4L1 support should be disabled when no CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT is defined, to allow checking for broken V4L2 ports. This is very important during the migration phase for V4L2 API. However, userspace apps should be capable of using both APIs, since they need to test at runtime, via VIDIOCGCAP ioctl, if V4L1 is supported. So, when __KERNEL__ is not defined, those ioctls and corresponding structs should be visible. This patch also removes the obsolete defines HAVE_V4L1 and HAVE_V4L2, that where causing some confusion, and were replaced by CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT and CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L2.
