SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +.. _media_writing_camera_sensor_drivers: + +Writing camera sensor drivers +============================= + +This document covers the in-kernel APIs only. For the best practices on +userspace API implementation in camera sensor drivers, please see +:ref:`media_using_camera_sensor_drivers`. + +CSI-2, parallel and BT.656 buses +-------------------------------- + +Please see :ref:`transmitter-receiver`. + +Handling clocks +--------------- + +Camera sensors have an internal clock tree including a PLL and a number of +divisors. The clock tree is generally configured by the driver based on a few +input parameters that are specific to the hardware: the external clock frequency +and the link frequency. The two parameters generally are obtained from system +firmware. **No other frequencies should be used in any circumstances.** + +The reason why the clock frequencies are so important is that the clock signals +come out of the SoC, and in many cases a specific frequency is designed to be +used in the system. Using another frequency may cause harmful effects +elsewhere. Therefore only the pre-determined frequencies are configurable by the +user. + +ACPI +~~~~ + +Read the ``clock-frequency`` _DSD property to denote the frequency. The driver +can rely on this frequency being used. + +Devicetree +~~~~~~~~~~ + +The preferred way to achieve this is using ``assigned-clocks``, +``assigned-clock-parents`` and ``assigned-clock-rates`` properties. See the +`clock device tree bindings +<https://github.com/devicetree-org/dt-schema/blob/main/dtschema/schemas/clock/clock.yaml>`_ +for more information. The driver then gets the frequency using +``clk_get_rate()``. + +This approach has the drawback that there's no guarantee that the frequency +hasn't been modified directly or indirectly by another driver, or supported by +the board's clock tree to begin with. Changes to the Common Clock Framework API +are required to ensure reliability. + +Power management +---------------- + +Camera sensors are used in conjunction with other devices to form a camera +pipeline. They must obey the rules listed herein to ensure coherent power +management over the pipeline. + +Camera sensor drivers are responsible for controlling the power state of the +device they otherwise control as well. They shall use runtime PM to manage +power states. Runtime PM shall be enabled at probe time and disabled at remove +time. Drivers should enable runtime PM autosuspend. Also see +:ref:`async sub-device registration <media-registering-async-subdevs>`. + +The runtime PM handlers shall handle clocks, regulators, GPIOs, and other +system resources required to power the sensor up and down. For drivers that +don't use any of those resources (such as drivers that support ACPI systems +only), the runtime PM handlers may be left unimplemented. + +In general, the device shall be powered on at least when its registers are +being accessed and when it is streaming. Drivers should use +``pm_runtime_resume_and_get()`` when starting streaming and +``pm_runtime_put()`` or ``pm_runtime_put_autosuspend()`` when stopping +streaming. They may power the device up at probe time (for example to read +identification registers), but should not keep it powered unconditionally after +probe. + +At system suspend time, the whole camera pipeline must stop streaming, and +restart when the system is resumed. This requires coordination between the +camera sensor and the rest of the camera pipeline. Bridge drivers are +responsible for this coordination, and instruct camera sensors to stop and +restart streaming by calling the appropriate subdev operations +(``.s_stream()``, ``.enable_streams()`` or ``.disable_streams()``). Camera +sensor drivers shall therefore **not** keep track of the streaming state to +stop streaming in the PM suspend handler and restart it in the resume handler. +Drivers should in general not implement the system PM handlers. + +Camera sensor drivers shall **not** implement the subdev ``.s_power()`` +operation, as it is deprecated. While this operation is implemented in some +existing drivers as they predate the deprecation, new drivers shall use runtime +PM instead. If you feel you need to begin calling ``.s_power()`` from an ISP or +a bridge driver, instead add runtime PM support to the sensor driver you are +using and drop its ``.s_power()`` handler. + +Please also see :ref:`examples <media-camera-sensor-examples>`. + +Control framework +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup()`` function may not be used in the device's runtime +PM ``runtime_resume`` callback, as it has no way to figure out the power state +of the device. This is because the power state of the device is only changed +after the power state transition has taken place. The ``s_ctrl`` callback can be +used to obtain device's power state after the power state transition: + +.. c:function:: int pm_runtime_get_if_in_use(struct device *dev); + +The function returns a non-zero value if it succeeded getting the power count or +runtime PM was disabled, in either of which cases the driver may proceed to +access the device. + +Rotation, orientation and flipping +---------------------------------- + +Use ``v4l2_fwnode_device_parse()`` to obtain rotation and orientation +information from system firmware and ``v4l2_ctrl_new_fwnode_properties()`` to +register the appropriate controls. + +.. _media-camera-sensor-examples: + +Example drivers +--------------- + +Features implemented by sensor drivers vary, and depending on the set of +supported features and other qualities, particular sensor drivers better serve +the purpose of an example.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +CEC Kernel Support +================== + +The CEC framework provides a unified kernel interface for use with HDMI CEC +hardware. It is designed to handle a multiple types of hardware (receivers, +transmitters, USB dongles). The framework also gives the option to decide +what to do in the kernel driver and what should be handled by userspace +applications. In addition it integrates the remote control passthrough +feature into the kernel's remote control framework. + + +The CEC Protocol +---------------- + +The CEC protocol enables consumer electronic devices to communicate with each +other through the HDMI connection. The protocol uses logical addresses in the +communication. The logical address is strictly connected with the functionality +provided by the device. The TV acting as the communication hub is always +assigned address 0. The physical address is determined by the physical +connection between devices. + +The CEC framework described here is up to date with the CEC 2.0 specification. +It is documented in the HDMI 1.4 specification with the new 2.0 bits documented +in the HDMI 2.0 specification. But for most of the features the freely available +HDMI 1.3a specification is sufficient: + +https://www.hdmi.org/spec/index + + +CEC Adapter Interface +--------------------- + +The struct cec_adapter represents the CEC adapter hardware. It is created by +calling cec_allocate_adapter() and deleted by calling cec_delete_adapter(): + +.. c:function:: + struct cec_adapter *cec_allocate_adapter(const struct cec_adap_ops *ops, \ + void *priv, const char *name, \ + u32 caps, u8 available_las); + +.. c:function:: + void cec_delete_adapter(struct cec_adapter *adap); + +To create an adapter you need to pass the following information: + +ops: + adapter operations which are called by the CEC framework and that you + have to implement. + +priv: + will be stored in adap->priv and can be used by the adapter ops. + Use cec_get_drvdata(adap) to get the priv pointer. + +name: + the name of the CEC adapter. Note: this name will be copied. + +caps: + capabilities of the CEC adapter. These capabilities determine the + capabilities of the hardware and which parts are to be handled + by userspace and which parts are handled by kernelspace. The + capabilities are returned by CEC_ADAP_G_CAPS. + +available_las: + the number of simultaneous logical addresses that this + adapter can handle. Must be 1 <= available_las <= CEC_MAX_LOG_ADDRS. + +To obtain the priv pointer use this helper function: + +.. c:function:: + void *cec_get_drvdata(const struct cec_adapter *adap); + +To register the /dev/cecX device node and the remote control device (if +CEC_CAP_RC is set) you call: + +.. c:function:: + int cec_register_adapter(struct cec_adapter *adap, \ + struct device *parent); + +where parent is the parent device. + +To unregister the devices call: + +.. c:function:: + void cec_unregister_adapter(struct cec_adapter *adap); + +Note: if cec_register_adapter() fails, then call cec_delete_adapter() to +clean up. But if cec_register_adapter() succeeded, then only call +cec_unregister_adapter() to clean up, never cec_delete_adapter(). The +unregister function will delete the adapter automatically once the last user +of that /dev/cecX device has closed its file handle. + + +Implementing the Low-Level CEC Adapter +-------------------------------------- + +The following low-level adapter operations have to be implemented in +your driver: + +.. c:struct:: cec_adap_ops + +.. code-block:: none + + struct cec_adap_ops + { + /* Low-level callbacks */ + int (*adap_enable)(struct cec_adapter *adap, bool enable); + int (*adap_monitor_all_enable)(struct cec_adapter *adap, bool enable); + int (*adap_monitor_pin_enable)(struct cec_adapter *adap, bool enable); + int (*adap_log_addr)(struct cec_adapter *adap, u8 logical_addr); + void (*adap_unconfigured)(struct cec_adapter *adap); + int (*adap_transmit)(struct cec_adapter *adap, u8 attempts, + u32 signal_free_time, struct cec_msg *msg); + void (*adap_nb_transmit_canceled)(struct cec_adapter *adap, + const struct cec_msg *msg); + void (*adap_status)(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct seq_file *file); + void (*adap_free)(struct cec_adapter *adap); + + /* Error injection callbacks */ + ... + + /* High-level callback */ + ... + }; + +These low-level ops deal with various aspects of controlling the CEC adapter +hardware. They are all called with the mutex adap->lock held. + + +To enable/disable the hardware:: + + int (*adap_enable)(struct cec_adapter *adap, bool enable); + +This callback enables or disables the CEC hardware. Enabling the CEC hardware +means powering it up in a state where no logical addresses are claimed. The +physical address will always be valid if CEC_CAP_NEEDS_HPD is set. If that +capability is not set, then the physical address can change while the CEC +hardware is enabled. CEC drivers should not set CEC_CAP_NEEDS_HPD unless +the hardware design requires that as this will make it impossible to wake +up displays that pull the HPD low when in standby mode. The initial +state of the CEC adapter after calling cec_allocate_adapter() is disabled. + +Note that adap_enable must return 0 if enable is false. + + +To enable/disable the 'monitor all' mode:: + + int (*adap_monitor_all_enable)(struct cec_adapter *adap, bool enable); + +If enabled, then the adapter should be put in a mode to also monitor messages +that are not for us. Not all hardware supports this and this function is only +called if the CEC_CAP_MONITOR_ALL capability is set. This callback is optional +(some hardware may always be in 'monitor all' mode). + +Note that adap_monitor_all_enable must return 0 if enable is false. + + +To enable/disable the 'monitor pin' mode:: + + int (*adap_monitor_pin_enable)(struct cec_adapter *adap, bool enable); + +If enabled, then the adapter should be put in a mode to also monitor CEC pin +changes. Not all hardware supports this and this function is only called if +the CEC_CAP_MONITOR_PIN capability is set. This callback is optional +(some hardware may always be in 'monitor pin' mode). + +Note that adap_monitor_pin_enable must return 0 if enable is false. + + +To program a new logical address:: + + int (*adap_log_addr)(struct cec_adapter *adap, u8 logical_addr); + +If logical_addr == CEC_LOG_ADDR_INVALID then all programmed logical addresses +are to be erased. Otherwise the given logical address should be programmed. +If the maximum number of available logical addresses is exceeded, then it +should return -ENXIO. Once a logical address is programmed the CEC hardware +can receive directed messages to that address. + +Note that adap_log_addr must return 0 if logical_addr is CEC_LOG_ADDR_INVALID. + + +Called when the adapter is unconfigured:: + + void (*adap_unconfigured)(struct cec_adapter *adap); + +The adapter is unconfigured. If the driver has to take specific actions after +unconfiguration, then that can be done through this optional callback. + + +To transmit a new message:: + + int (*adap_transmit)(struct cec_adapter *adap, u8 attempts, + u32 signal_free_time, struct cec_msg *msg); + +This transmits a new message. The attempts argument is the suggested number of +attempts for the transmit. + +The signal_free_time is the number of data bit periods that the adapter should +wait when the line is free before attempting to send a message. This value +depends on whether this transmit is a retry, a message from a new initiator or +a new message for the same initiator. Most hardware will handle this +automatically, but in some cases this information is needed. + +The CEC_FREE_TIME_TO_USEC macro can be used to convert signal_free_time to +microseconds (one data bit period is 2.4 ms). + + +To pass on the result of a canceled non-blocking transmit:: + + void (*adap_nb_transmit_canceled)(struct cec_adapter *adap, + const struct cec_msg *msg); + +This optional callback can be used to obtain the result of a canceled +non-blocking transmit with sequence number msg->sequence. This is +called if the transmit was aborted, the transmit timed out (i.e. the +hardware never signaled that the transmit finished), or the transmit +was successful, but the wait for the expected reply was either aborted +or it timed out. + + +To log the current CEC hardware status:: + + void (*adap_status)(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct seq_file *file); + +This optional callback can be used to show the status of the CEC hardware. +The status is available through debugfs: cat /sys/kernel/debug/cec/cecX/status + +To free any resources when the adapter is deleted:: + + void (*adap_free)(struct cec_adapter *adap); + +This optional callback can be used to free any resources that might have been +allocated by the driver. It's called from cec_delete_adapter. + + +Your adapter driver will also have to react to events (typically interrupt +driven) by calling into the framework in the following situations: + +When a transmit finished (successfully or otherwise):: + + void cec_transmit_done(struct cec_adapter *adap, u8 status, + u8 arb_lost_cnt, u8 nack_cnt, u8 low_drive_cnt, + u8 error_cnt); + +or:: + + void cec_transmit_attempt_done(struct cec_adapter *adap, u8 status); + +The status can be one of: + +CEC_TX_STATUS_OK: + the transmit was successful. + +CEC_TX_STATUS_ARB_LOST: + arbitration was lost: another CEC initiator + took control of the CEC line and you lost the arbitration. + +CEC_TX_STATUS_NACK: + the message was nacked (for a directed message) or + acked (for a broadcast message). A retransmission is needed. + +CEC_TX_STATUS_LOW_DRIVE: + low drive was detected on the CEC bus. This indicates that + a follower detected an error on the bus and requested a + retransmission. + +CEC_TX_STATUS_ERROR: + some unspecified error occurred: this can be one of ARB_LOST + or LOW_DRIVE if the hardware cannot differentiate or something + else entirely. Some hardware only supports OK and FAIL as the + result of a transmit, i.e. there is no way to differentiate + between the different possible errors. In that case map FAIL + to CEC_TX_STATUS_NACK and not to CEC_TX_STATUS_ERROR. + +CEC_TX_STATUS_MAX_RETRIES: + could not transmit the message after trying multiple times. + Should only be set by the driver if it has hardware support for + retrying messages. If set, then the framework assumes that it + doesn't have to make another attempt to transmit the message + since the hardware did that already. + +The hardware must be able to differentiate between OK, NACK and 'something +else'. + +The \*_cnt arguments are the number of error conditions that were seen. +This may be 0 if no information is available. Drivers that do not support +hardware retry can just set the counter corresponding to the transmit error +to 1, if the hardware does support retry then either set these counters to +0 if the hardware provides no feedback of which errors occurred and how many +times, or fill in the correct values as reported by the hardware. + +Be aware that calling these functions can immediately start a new transmit +if there is one pending in the queue. So make sure that the hardware is in +a state where new transmits can be started *before* calling these functions. + +The cec_transmit_attempt_done() function is a helper for cases where the +hardware never retries, so the transmit is always for just a single +attempt. It will call cec_transmit_done() in turn, filling in 1 for the +count argument corresponding to the status. Or all 0 if the status was OK. + +When a CEC message was received: + +.. c:function:: + void cec_received_msg(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct cec_msg *msg); + +Speaks for itself. + +Implementing the interrupt handler +---------------------------------- + +Typically the CEC hardware provides interrupts that signal when a transmit +finished and whether it was successful or not, and it provides and interrupt +when a CEC message was received. + +The CEC driver should always process the transmit interrupts first before +handling the receive interrupt. The framework expects to see the cec_transmit_done +call before the cec_received_msg call, otherwise it can get confused if the +received message was in reply to the transmitted message. + +Optional: Implementing Error Injection Support +---------------------------------------------- + +If the CEC adapter supports Error Injection functionality, then that can +be exposed through the Error Injection callbacks: + +.. code-block:: none + + struct cec_adap_ops { + /* Low-level callbacks */ + ... + + /* Error injection callbacks */ + int (*error_inj_show)(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct seq_file *sf); + bool (*error_inj_parse_line)(struct cec_adapter *adap, char *line); + + /* High-level CEC message callback */ + ... + }; + +If both callbacks are set, then an ``error-inj`` file will appear in debugfs. +The basic syntax is as follows: + +Leading spaces/tabs are ignored. If the next character is a ``#`` or the end of the +line was reached, then the whole line is ignored. Otherwise a command is expected. + +This basic parsing is done in the CEC Framework. It is up to the driver to decide +what commands to implement. The only requirement is that the command ``clear`` without +any arguments must be implemented and that it will remove all current error injection +commands. + +This ensures that you can always do ``echo clear >error-inj`` to clear any error +injections without having to know the details of the driver-specific commands. + +Note that the output of ``error-inj`` shall be valid as input to ``error-inj``. +So this must work: + +.. code-block:: none + + $ cat error-inj >einj.txt + $ cat einj.txt >error-inj + +The first callback is called when this file is read and it should show the +current error injection state:: + + int (*error_inj_show)(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct seq_file *sf); + +It is recommended that it starts with a comment block with basic usage +information. It returns 0 for success and an error otherwise. + +The second callback will parse commands written to the ``error-inj`` file:: + + bool (*error_inj_parse_line)(struct cec_adapter *adap, char *line); + +The ``line`` argument points to the start of the command. Any leading +spaces or tabs have already been skipped. It is a single line only (so there +are no embedded newlines) and it is 0-terminated. The callback is free to +modify the contents of the buffer. It is only called for lines containing a +command, so this callback is never called for empty lines or comment lines. + +Return true if the command was valid or false if there were syntax errors. + +Implementing the High-Level CEC Adapter +--------------------------------------- + +The low-level operations drive the hardware, the high-level operations are +CEC protocol driven. The high-level callbacks are called without the adap->lock +mutex being held. The following high-level callbacks are available: + +.. code-block:: none + + struct cec_adap_ops { + /* Low-level callbacks */ + ... + + /* Error injection callbacks */ + ... + + /* High-level CEC message callback */ + void (*configured)(struct cec_adapter *adap); + int (*received)(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct cec_msg *msg); + }; + +Called when the adapter is configured:: + + void (*configured)(struct cec_adapter *adap); + +The adapter is fully configured, i.e. all logical addresses have been +successfully claimed. If the driver has to take specific actions after +configuration, then that can be done through this optional callback. + + +The received() callback allows the driver to optionally handle a newly +received CEC message:: + + int (*received)(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct cec_msg *msg); + +If the driver wants to process a CEC message, then it can implement this +callback. If it doesn't want to handle this message, then it should return +-ENOMSG, otherwise the CEC framework assumes it processed this message and +it will not do anything with it. + + +CEC framework functions +----------------------- + +CEC Adapter drivers can call the following CEC framework functions: + +.. c:function:: + int cec_transmit_msg(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct cec_msg *msg, \ + bool block); + +Transmit a CEC message. If block is true, then wait until the message has been +transmitted, otherwise just queue it and return. + +.. c:function:: + void cec_s_phys_addr(struct cec_adapter *adap, u16 phys_addr, bool block); + +Change the physical address. This function will set adap->phys_addr and +send an event if it has changed. If cec_s_log_addrs() has been called and +the physical address has become valid, then the CEC framework will start +claiming the logical addresses. If block is true, then this function won't +return until this process has finished. + +When the physical address is set to a valid value the CEC adapter will +be enabled (see the adap_enable op). When it is set to CEC_PHYS_ADDR_INVALID, +then the CEC adapter will be disabled. If you change a valid physical address +to another valid physical address, then this function will first set the +address to CEC_PHYS_ADDR_INVALID before enabling the new physical address. + +.. c:function:: + void cec_s_phys_addr_from_edid(struct cec_adapter *adap, \ + const struct edid *edid); + +A helper function that extracts the physical address from the edid struct +and calls cec_s_phys_addr() with that address, or CEC_PHYS_ADDR_INVALID +if the EDID did not contain a physical address or edid was a NULL pointer. + +.. c:function:: + int cec_s_log_addrs(struct cec_adapter *adap, \ + struct cec_log_addrs *log_addrs, bool block); + +Claim the CEC logical addresses. Should never be called if CEC_CAP_LOG_ADDRS +is set. If block is true, then wait until the logical addresses have been +claimed, otherwise just queue it and return. To unconfigure all logical +addresses call this function with log_addrs set to NULL or with +log_addrs->num_log_addrs set to 0. The block argument is ignored when +unconfiguring. This function will just return if the physical address is +invalid. Once the physical address becomes valid, then the framework will +attempt to claim these logical addresses. + +CEC Pin framework +----------------- + +Most CEC hardware operates on full CEC messages where the software provides +the message and the hardware handles the low-level CEC protocol. But some +hardware only drives the CEC pin and software has to handle the low-level +CEC protocol. The CEC pin framework was created to handle such devices. + +Note that due to the close-to-realtime requirements it can never be guaranteed +to work 100%. This framework uses highres timers internally, but if a +timer goes off too late by more than 300 microseconds wrong results can +occur. In reality it appears to be fairly reliable. + +One advantage of this low-level implementation is that it can be used as +a cheap CEC analyser, especially if interrupts can be used to detect +CEC pin transitions from low to high or vice versa. + +.. kernel-doc:: include/media/cec-pin.h + +CEC Notifier framework +---------------------- + +Most drm HDMI implementations have an integrated CEC implementation and no +notifier support is needed. But some have independent CEC implementations +that have their own driver. This could be an IP block for an SoC or a +completely separate chip that deals with the CEC pin. For those cases a +drm driver can install a notifier and use the notifier to inform the +CEC driver about changes in the physical address. + +.. kernel-doc:: include/media/cec-notifier.h diff --git a/Documentation/driver-api/media/drivers/bttv-devel.rst b/Documentation/driver-api/media/drivers/bttv-devel.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..0885a04563a9 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/driver-api/media/drivers/bttv-devel.rst @@ -0,0 +1,116 @@ +..

Looks like some driver hacking is required. +Below is a do-it-yourself description for you. + +The bt8xx chips have 32 general purpose pins, and registers to control +these pins. One register is the output enable register +(``BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN``), it says which pins are actively driven by the +bt848 chip. Another one is the data register (``BT848_GPIO_DATA``), where +you can get/set the status if these pins. They can be used for input +and output. + +Most grabber board vendors use these pins to control an external chip +which does the sound routing. But every board is a little different. +These pins are also used by some companies to drive remote control +receiver chips. Some boards use the i2c bus instead of the gpio pins +to connect the mux chip. + +As mentioned above, there is a array which holds the required +information for each known board. You basically have to create a new +line for your board. The important fields are these two:: + + struct tvcard + { + [ ... ] + u32 gpiomask; + u32 audiomux[6]; /* Tuner, Radio, external, internal, mute, stereo */ + }; + +gpiomask specifies which pins are used to control the audio mux chip. +The corresponding bits in the output enable register +(``BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN``) will be set as these pins must be driven by the +bt848 chip. + +The ``audiomux[]`` array holds the data values for the different inputs +(i.e. which pins must be high/low for tuner/mute/...). This will be +written to the data register (``BT848_GPIO_DATA``) to switch the audio +mux. + + +What you have to do is figure out the correct values for gpiomask and +the audiomux array. If you have Windows and the drivers four your +card installed, you might to check out if you can read these registers +values used by the windows driver.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only OR BSD-3-Clause + +.. include:: <isonum.txt> + +MIPI CCS camera sensor driver +============================= + +The MIPI CCS camera sensor driver is a generic driver for `MIPI CCS +<https://www.mipi.org/specifications/camera-command-set>`_ compliant +camera sensors. It exposes three sub-devices representing the pixel array, +the binner and the scaler. + +As the capabilities of individual devices vary, the driver exposes +interfaces based on the capabilities that exist in hardware. + +Pixel Array sub-device +---------------------- + +The pixel array sub-device represents the camera sensor's pixel matrix, as well +as analogue crop functionality present in many compliant devices. The analogue +crop is configured using the ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP`` on the source pad (0) of the +entity. The size of the pixel matrix can be obtained by getting the +``V4L2_SEL_TGT_NATIVE_SIZE`` target. + +Binner +------ + +The binner sub-device represents the binning functionality on the sensor. For +that purpose, selection target ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE`` is supported on the +sink pad (0). + +Additionally, if a device has no scaler or digital crop functionality, the +source pad (1) exposes another digital crop selection rectangle that can only +crop at the end of the lines and frames. + +Scaler +------ + +The scaler sub-device represents the digital crop and scaling functionality of +the sensor. The V4L2 selection target ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP`` is used to +configure the digital crop on the sink pad (0) when digital crop is supported. +Scaling is configured using selection target ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE`` on the +sink pad (0) as well. + +Additionally, if the scaler sub-device exists, its source pad (1) exposes +another digital crop selection rectangle that can only crop at the end of the +lines and frames. + +Digital and analogue crop +------------------------- + +Digital crop functionality is referred to as cropping that effectively works by +dropping some data on the floor. Analogue crop, on the other hand, means that +the cropped information is never retrieved. In case of camera sensors, the +analogue data is never read from the pixel matrix that are outside the +configured selection rectangle that designates crop. The difference has an +effect in device timing and likely also in power consumption. + +CCS static data +--------------- + +The MIPI CCS driver supports CCS static data for all compliant devices, +including not just those compliant with CCS 1.1 but also CCS 1.0 and SMIA(++). +For CCS the file names are formed as + + ccs/ccs-sensor-vvvv-mmmm-rrrr.fw (sensor) and + ccs/ccs-module-vvvv-mmmm-rrrr.fw (module). + +For SMIA++ compliant devices the corresponding file names are + + ccs/smiapp-sensor-vv-mmmm-rr.fw (sensor) and + ccs/smiapp-module-vv-mmmm-rrrr.fw (module). + +For SMIA (non-++) compliant devices the static data file name is + + ccs/smia-sensor-vv-mmmm-rr.fw (sensor). + +vvvv or vv denotes MIPI and SMIA manufacturer IDs respectively, mmmm model ID +and rrrr or rr revision number. + +CCS tools +~~~~~~~~~ + +`CCS tools <https://github.com/MIPI-Alliance/ccs-tools/>`_ is a set of +tools for working with CCS static data files. CCS tools includes a +definition of the human-readable CCS static data YAML format and includes a +program to convert it to a binary. + +Register definition generator +----------------------------- + +The ccs-regs.asc file contains MIPI CCS register definitions that are used +to produce C source code files for definitions that can be better used by +programs written in C language. As there are many dependencies between the +produced files, please do not modify them manually as it's error-prone and +in vain, but instead change the script producing them. + +Usage +~~~~~ + +Conventionally the script is called this way to update the CCS driver +definitions: + +.. code-block:: none + + $ Documentation/driver-api/media/drivers/ccs/mk-ccs-regs -k \ + -e drivers/media/i2c/ccs/ccs-regs.h \ + -L drivers/media/i2c/ccs/ccs-limits.h \ + -l drivers/media/i2c/ccs/ccs-limits.c \ + -c Documentation/driver-api/media/drivers/ccs/ccs-regs.asc + +CCS PLL calculator +================== + +The CCS PLL calculator is used to compute the PLL configuration, given sensor's +capabilities as well as board configuration and user specified configuration. As +the configuration space that encompasses all these configurations is vast, the +PLL calculator isn't entirely trivial.

The +mailboxes are basically a fixed length array that serves as the call-stack. + +Firmware mailboxes can be located by searching the encoder and decoder memory +for a 16 byte signature. That signature will be located on a 256-byte boundary. + +Signature: + +.. code-block:: none + + 0x78, 0x56, 0x34, 0x12, 0x12, 0x78, 0x56, 0x34, + 0x34, 0x12, 0x78, 0x56, 0x56, 0x34, 0x12, 0x78 + +The firmware implements 20 mailboxes of 20 32-bit words. The first 10 are +reserved for API calls. The second 10 are used by the firmware for event +notification. + + ====== ================= + Index Name + ====== ================= + 0 Flags + 1 Command + 2 Return value + 3 Timeout + 4-19 Parameter/Result + ====== ================= + + +The flags are defined in the following table. The direction is from the +perspective of the firmware. + + ==== ========== ============================================ + Bit Direction Purpose + ==== ========== ============================================ + 2 O Firmware has processed the command. + 1 I Driver has finished setting the parameters. + 0 I Driver is using this mailbox. + ==== ========== ============================================ + +The command is a 32-bit enumerator. The API specifics may be found in this +chapter. + +The return value is a 32-bit enumerator. Only two values are currently defined: + +- 0=success +- -1=command undefined. + +There are 16 parameters/results 32-bit fields. The driver populates these fields +with values for all the parameters required by the call. The driver overwrites +these fields with result values returned by the call. + +The timeout value protects the card from a hung driver thread. If the driver +doesn't handle the completed call within the timeout specified, the firmware +will reset that mailbox. + +To make an API call, the driver iterates over each mailbox looking for the +first one available (bit 0 has been cleared). The driver sets that bit, fills +in the command enumerator, the timeout value and any required parameters. The +driver then sets the parameter ready bit (bit 1). The firmware scans the +mailboxes for pending commands, processes them, sets the result code, populates +the result value array with that call's return values and sets the call +complete bit (bit 2). Once bit 2 is set, the driver should retrieve the results +and clear all the flags. If the driver does not perform this task within the +time set in the timeout register, the firmware will reset that mailbox. + +Event notifications are sent from the firmware to the host. The host tells the +firmware which events it is interested in via an API call. That call tells the +firmware which notification mailbox to use. The firmware signals the host via +an interrupt.

There will be mistakes +and omissions. Some registers have no obvious effect so it's hard to say what +they do, while others interact with each other, or require a certain load +sequence. Horizontal filter setup is one example, with six registers working +in unison and requiring a certain load sequence to correctly configure. The +indexed colour palette is much easier to set at just two registers, but again +it requires a certain load sequence. + +Some registers are fussy about what they are set to. Load in a bad value & the +decoder will fail. A firmware reload will often recover, but sometimes a reset +is required. For registers containing size information, setting them to 0 is +generally a bad idea. For other control registers i.e. 2878, you'll only find +out what values are bad when it hangs. + +.. code-block:: none + + -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + 2800 + bit 0 + Decoder enable + 0 = disable + 1 = enable + -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + 2804 + bits 0:31 + Decoder horizontal Y alias register 1 + --------------- + 2808 + bits 0:31 + Decoder horizontal Y alias register 2 + --------------- + 280C + bits 0:31 + Decoder horizontal Y alias register 3 + --------------- + 2810 + bits 0:31 + Decoder horizontal Y alias register 4 + --------------- + 2814 + bits 0:31 + Decoder horizontal Y alias register 5 + --------------- + 2818 + bits 0:31 + Decoder horizontal Y alias trigger + + These six registers control the horizontal aliasing filter for the Y plane. + The first five registers must all be loaded before accessing the trigger + (2818), as this register actually clocks the data through for the first + five. + + To correctly program set the filter, this whole procedure must be done 16 + times.

This means it has a DMA +engine to efficiently transfer large volumes of data between the card and main +memory without requiring help from a CPU. Like most hardware, it must operate +on contiguous physical memory. This is difficult to come by in large quantities +on virtual memory machines. + +Therefore, it also supports a technique called "scatter-gather". The card can +transfer multiple buffers in one operation. Instead of allocating one large +contiguous buffer, the driver can allocate several smaller buffers. + +In practice, I've seen the average transfer to be roughly 80K, but transfers +above 128K were not uncommon, particularly at startup. The 128K figure is +important, because that is the largest block that the kernel can normally +allocate. Even still, 128K blocks are hard to come by, so the driver writer is +urged to choose a smaller block size and learn the scatter-gather technique. + +Mailbox #10 is reserved for DMA transfer information. + +Note: the hardware expects little-endian data ('intel format'). + +Flow +~~~~ + +This section describes, in general, the order of events when handling DMA +transfers. Detailed information follows this section. + +- The card raises the Encoder interrupt. +- The driver reads the transfer type, offset and size from Mailbox #10. +- The driver constructs the scatter-gather array from enough free dma buffers + to cover the size. +- The driver schedules the DMA transfer via the ScheduleDMAtoHost API call. +- The card raises the DMA Complete interrupt. +- The driver checks the DMA status register for any errors. +- The driver post-processes the newly transferred buffers. + +NOTE! It is possible that the Encoder and DMA Complete interrupts get raised +simultaneously. (End of the last, start of the next, etc.) + +Mailbox #10 +~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The Flags, Command, Return Value and Timeout fields are ignored. + +- Name: Mailbox #10 +- Results[0]: Type: 0: MPEG. +- Results[1]: Offset: The position relative to the card's memory space. +- Results[2]: Size: The exact number of bytes to transfer. + +My speculation is that since the StartCapture API has a capture type of "RAW" +available, that the type field will have other values that correspond to YUV +and PCM data. + +Scatter-Gather Array +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The scatter-gather array is a contiguously allocated block of memory that +tells the card the source and destination of each data-block to transfer. +Card "addresses" are derived from the offset supplied by Mailbox #10. Host +addresses are the physical memory location of the target DMA buffer. + +Each S-G array element is a struct of three 32-bit words. The first word is +the source address, the second is the destination address. Both take up the +entire 32 bits. The lowest 18 bits of the third word is the transfer byte +count. The high-bit of the third word is the "last" flag. The last-flag tells +the card to raise the DMA_DONE interrupt. From hard personal experience, if +you forget to set this bit, the card will still "work" but the stream will +most likely get corrupted. + +The transfer count must be a multiple of 256. Therefore, the driver will need +to track how much data in the target buffer is valid and deal with it +accordingly. + +Array Element: + +- 32-bit Source Address +- 32-bit Destination Address +- 14-bit reserved (high bit is the last flag) +- 18-bit byte count + +DMA Transfer Status +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Register 0x0004 holds the DMA Transfer Status: + +- bit 0: read completed +- bit 1: write completed +- bit 2: DMA read error +- bit 3: DMA write error +- bit 4: Scatter-Gather array error diff --git a/Documentation/driver-api/media/drivers/cx88-devel.rst b/Documentation/driver-api/media/drivers/cx88-devel.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..cfe7c03f4930 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/driver-api/media/drivers/cx88-devel.rst @@ -0,0 +1,113 @@ +..

This driver is a work in progress. +Its history started with the reverse-engineering effort by Björn +Danielsson <pvrusb2@dax.nu> whose web page can be found here: +http://pvrusb2.dax.nu/ + +From there Aurelien Alleaume <slts@free.fr> began an effort to +create a video4linux compatible driver. I began with Aurelien's +last known snapshot and evolved the driver to the state it is in +here. + +More information on this driver can be found at: +https://www.isely.net/pvrusb2.html + + +This driver has a strong separation of layers. They are very +roughly: + +1. Low level wire-protocol implementation with the device. + +2. I2C adaptor implementation and corresponding I2C client drivers + implemented elsewhere in V4L. + +3. High level hardware driver implementation which coordinates all + activities that ensure correct operation of the device. + +4. A "context" layer which manages instancing of driver, setup, + tear-down, arbitration, and interaction with high level + interfaces appropriately as devices are hotplugged in the + system. + +5. High level interfaces which glue the driver to various published + Linux APIs (V4L, sysfs, maybe DVB in the future). + +The most important shearing layer is between the top 2 layers. A +lot of work went into the driver to ensure that any kind of +conceivable API can be laid on top of the core driver. (Yes, the +driver internally leverages V4L to do its work but that really has +nothing to do with the API published by the driver to the outside +world.) The architecture allows for different APIs to +simultaneously access the driver. I have a strong sense of fairness +about APIs and also feel that it is a good design principle to keep +implementation and interface isolated from each other. Thus while +right now the V4L high level interface is the most complete, the +sysfs high level interface will work equally well for similar +functions, and there's no reason I see right now why it shouldn't be +possible to produce a DVB high level interface that can sit right +alongside V4L. + +Building +-------- + +To build these modules essentially amounts to just running "Make", +but you need the kernel source tree nearby and you will likely also +want to set a few controlling environment variables first in order +to link things up with that source tree. Please see the Makefile +here for comments that explain how to do that. + +Source file list / functional overview +-------------------------------------- + +(Note: The term "module" used below generally refers to loosely +defined functional units within the pvrusb2 driver and bears no +relation to the Linux kernel's concept of a loadable module.) + +pvrusb2-audio.[ch] - This is glue logic that resides between this + driver and the msp3400.ko I2C client driver (which is found + elsewhere in V4L). + +pvrusb2-context.[ch] - This module implements the context for an + instance of the driver. Everything else eventually ties back to + or is otherwise instanced within the data structures implemented + here. Hotplugging is ultimately coordinated here. All high level + interfaces tie into the driver through this module. This module + helps arbitrate each interface's access to the actual driver core, + and is designed to allow concurrent access through multiple + instances of multiple interfaces (thus you can for example change + the tuner's frequency through sysfs while simultaneously streaming + video through V4L out to an instance of mplayer). + +pvrusb2-debug.h - This header defines a printk() wrapper and a mask + of debugging bit definitions for the various kinds of debug + messages that can be enabled within the driver. + +pvrusb2-debugifc.[ch] - This module implements a crude command line + oriented debug interface into the driver. Aside from being part + of the process for implementing manual firmware extraction (see + the pvrusb2 web site mentioned earlier), probably I'm the only one + who has ever used this. It is mainly a debugging aid. + +pvrusb2-eeprom.[ch] - This is glue logic that resides between this + driver the tveeprom.ko module, which is itself implemented + elsewhere in V4L. + +pvrusb2-encoder.[ch] - This module implements all protocol needed to + interact with the Conexant mpeg2 encoder chip within the pvrusb2 + device. It is a crude echo of corresponding logic in ivtv, + however the design goals (strict isolation) and physical layer + (proxy through USB instead of PCI) are enough different that this + implementation had to be completely different. + +pvrusb2-hdw-internal.h - This header defines the core data structure + in the driver used to track ALL internal state related to control + of the hardware. Nobody outside of the core hardware-handling + modules should have any business using this header. All external + access to the driver should be through one of the high level + interfaces (e.g. V4L, sysfs, etc), and in fact even those high + level interfaces are restricted to the API defined in + pvrusb2-hdw.h and NOT this header. + +pvrusb2-hdw.h - This header defines the full internal API for + controlling the hardware. High level interfaces (e.g. V4L, sysfs) + will work through here. + +pvrusb2-hdw.c - This module implements all the various bits of logic + that handle overall control of a specific pvrusb2 device. + (Policy, instantiation, and arbitration of pvrusb2 devices fall + within the jurisdiction of pvrusb-context not here). + +pvrusb2-i2c-chips-\*.c - These modules implement the glue logic to + tie together and configure various I2C modules as they attach to + the I2C bus. There are two versions of this file. The "v4l2" + version is intended to be used in-tree alongside V4L, where we + implement just the logic that makes sense for a pure V4L + environment. The "all" version is intended for use outside of + V4L, where we might encounter other possibly "challenging" modules + from ivtv or older kernel snapshots (or even the support modules + in the standalone snapshot). + +pvrusb2-i2c-cmd-v4l1.[ch] - This module implements generic V4L1 + compatible commands to the I2C modules.

It is here where state + changes inside the pvrusb2 driver are translated into V4L2 + commands that are in turn send to the various I2C modules. + +pvrusb2-i2c-core.[ch] - This module provides an implementation of a + kernel-friendly I2C adaptor driver, through which other external + I2C client drivers (e.g. msp3400, tuner, lirc) may connect and + operate corresponding chips within the pvrusb2 device. It is + through here that other V4L modules can reach into this driver to + operate specific pieces (and those modules are in turn driven by + glue logic which is coordinated by pvrusb2-hdw, doled out by + pvrusb2-context, and then ultimately made available to users + through one of the high level interfaces). + +pvrusb2-io.[ch] - This module implements a very low level ring of + transfer buffers, required in order to stream data from the + device. This module is *very* low level. It only operates the + buffers and makes no attempt to define any policy or mechanism for + how such buffers might be used. + +pvrusb2-ioread.[ch] - This module layers on top of pvrusb2-io.[ch] + to provide a streaming API usable by a read() system call style of + I/O. Right now this is the only layer on top of pvrusb2-io.[ch], + however the underlying architecture here was intended to allow for + other styles of I/O to be implemented with additional modules, like + mmap()'ed buffers or something even more exotic. + +pvrusb2-main.c - This is the top level of the driver. Module level + and USB core entry points are here. This is our "main". + +pvrusb2-sysfs.[ch] - This is the high level interface which ties the + pvrusb2 driver into sysfs. Through this interface you can do + everything with the driver except actually stream data. + +pvrusb2-tuner.[ch] - This is glue logic that resides between this + driver and the tuner.ko I2C client driver (which is found + elsewhere in V4L). + +pvrusb2-util.h - This header defines some common macros used + throughout the driver. These macros are not really specific to + the driver, but they had to go somewhere. + +pvrusb2-v4l2.[ch] - This is the high level interface which ties the + pvrusb2 driver into video4linux.

Benoit <benoits@servicepro.com> + +Date: Dec 14, 1996 + +ACKNOWLEDGMENTS +---------------- + +This document was made based on 'C' code for Linux from Gideon le Grange +(legrang@active.co.za or legrang@cs.sun.ac.za) in 1994, and elaborations from +Frans Brinkman (brinkman@esd.nl) in 1996. The results reported here are from +experiments that the author performed on his own setup, so your mileage may +vary... I make no guarantees, claims or warranties to the suitability or +validity of this information. No other documentation on the AIMS +Lab (http://www.aimslab.com/) RadioTrack card was made available to the +author. This document is offered in the hopes that it might help users who +want to use the RadioTrack card in an environment other than MS Windows. + +WHY THIS DOCUMENT? +------------------ + +I have a RadioTrack card from back when I ran an MS-Windows platform. After +converting to Linux, I found Gideon le Grange's command-line software for +running the card, and found that it was good! Frans Brinkman made a +comfortable X-windows interface, and added a scanning feature. For hack +value, I wanted to see if the tuner could be tuned beyond the usual FM radio +broadcast band, so I could pick up the audio carriers from North American +broadcast TV channels, situated just below and above the 87.0-109.0 MHz range. +I did not get much success, but I learned about programming ioports under +Linux and gained some insights about the hardware design used for the card. + +So, without further delay, here are the details. + + +PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION +-------------------- + +The RadioTrack card is an ISA 8-bit FM radio card. The radio frequency (RF) +input is simply an antenna lead, and the output is a power audio signal +available through a miniature phone plug. Its RF frequencies of operation are +more or less limited from 87.0 to 109.0 MHz (the commercial FM broadcast +band). Although the registers can be programmed to request frequencies beyond +these limits, experiments did not give promising results. The variable +frequency oscillator (VFO) that demodulates the intermediate frequency (IF) +signal probably has a small range of useful frequencies, and wraps around or +gets clipped beyond the limits mentioned above. + + +CONTROLLING THE CARD WITH IOPORT +-------------------------------- + +The RadioTrack (base) ioport is configurable for 0x30c or 0x20c. Only one +ioport seems to be involved. The ioport decoding circuitry must be pretty +simple, as individual ioport bits are directly matched to specific functions +(or blocks) of the radio card.

Almeida <dwlsalmeida@gmail.com>, June 2020. + +Background +---------- + +Vidtv is a virtual DVB driver that aims to serve as a reference for driver +writers by serving as a template. It also validates the existing media DVB +APIs, thus helping userspace application writers. + +Currently, it consists of: + +- A fake tuner driver, which will report a bad signal quality if the chosen + frequency is too far away from a table of valid frequencies for a + particular delivery system. + +- A fake demod driver, which will constantly poll the fake signal quality + returned by the tuner, simulating a device that can lose/reacquire a lock + on the signal depending on the CNR levels. + +- A fake bridge driver, which is the module responsible for modprobing the + fake tuner and demod modules and implementing the demux logic. This module + takes parameters at initialization that will dictate how the simulation + behaves. + +- Code responsible for encoding a valid MPEG Transport Stream, which is then + passed to the bridge driver. This fake stream contains some hardcoded content. + For now, we have a single, audio-only channel containing a single MPEG + Elementary Stream, which in turn contains a SMPTE 302m encoded sine-wave. + Note that this particular encoder was chosen because it is the easiest + way to encode PCM audio data in a MPEG Transport Stream. + +Building vidtv +-------------- +vidtv is a test driver and thus is **not** enabled by default when +compiling the kernel. + +In order to enable compilation of vidtv: + +- Enable **DVB_TEST_DRIVERS**, then +- Enable **DVB_VIDTV** + +When compiled as a module, expect the following .ko files: + +- dvb_vidtv_tuner.ko + +- dvb_vidtv_demod.ko + +- dvb_vidtv_bridge.ko + +Running vidtv +------------- +When compiled as a module, run:: + + modprobe vidtv + +That's it! The bridge driver will initialize the tuner and demod drivers as +part of its own initialization. + +By default, it will accept the following frequencies: + + - 474 MHz for DVB-T/T2/C; + - 11,362 GHz for DVB-S/S2. + +For satellite systems, the driver simulates an universal extended +LNBf, with frequencies at Ku-Band, ranging from 10.7 GHz to 12.75 GHz. + +You can optionally define some command-line arguments to vidtv. + +Command-line arguments to vidtv +------------------------------- +Below is a list of all arguments that can be supplied to vidtv: + +drop_tslock_prob_on_low_snr + Probability of losing the TS lock if the signal quality is bad. + This probability be used by the fake demodulator driver to + eventually return a status of 0 when the signal quality is not + good. + +recover_tslock_prob_on_good_snr: + Probability recovering the TS lock when the signal improves. This + probability be used by the fake demodulator driver to eventually + return a status of 0x1f when/if the signal quality improves. + +mock_power_up_delay_msec + Simulate a power up delay.

Default: 40ms. + +pcr_period_msec + How often to send PCR packets. Default: 40ms. + +mux_rate_kbytes_sec + Attempt to maintain this bit rate by inserting TS null packets, if + necessary. Default: 4096. + +pcr_pid, + PCR PID for all channels. Default: 0x200. + +mux_buf_sz_pkts, + Size for the mux buffer in multiples of 188 bytes. + +vidtv internal structure +------------------------ +The kernel modules are split in the following way: + +vidtv_tuner.[ch] + Implements a fake tuner DVB driver. + +vidtv_demod.[ch] + Implements a fake demodulator DVB driver. + +vidtv_bridge.[ch] + Implements a bridge driver. + +The MPEG related code is split in the following way: + +vidtv_ts.[ch] + Code to work with MPEG TS packets, such as TS headers, adaptation + fields, PCR packets and NULL packets. + +vidtv_psi.[ch] + This is the PSI generator. PSI packets contain general information + about a MPEG Transport Stream. A PSI generator is needed so + userspace apps can retrieve information about the Transport Stream + and eventually tune into a (dummy) channel. + + Because the generator is implemented in a separate file, it can be + reused elsewhere in the media subsystem. + + Currently vidtv supports working with 5 PSI tables: PAT, PMT, + SDT, NIT and EIT. + + The specification for PAT and PMT can be found in *ISO 13818-1: + Systems*, while the specification for the SDT, NIT, EIT can be found in *ETSI + EN 300 468: Specification for Service Information (SI) in DVB + systems*. + + It isn't strictly necessary, but using a real TS file helps when + debugging PSI tables. Vidtv currently tries to replicate the PSI + structure found in this file: `TS1Globo.ts + <https://tsduck.io/streams/brazil-isdb-tb/TS1globo.ts>`_. + + A good way to visualize the structure of streams is by using + `DVBInspector <https://sourceforge.net/projects/dvbinspector/>`_. + +vidtv_pes.[ch] + Implements the PES logic to convert encoder data into MPEG TS + packets. These can then be fed into a TS multiplexer and eventually + into userspace. + +vidtv_encoder.h + An interface for vidtv encoders. New encoders can be added to this + driver by implementing the calls in this file. + +vidtv_s302m.[ch] + Implements a S302M encoder to make it possible to insert PCM audio + data in the generated MPEG Transport Stream. The relevant + specification is available online as *SMPTE 302M-2007: Television - + Mapping of AES3 Data into MPEG-2 Transport Stream*. + + + The resulting MPEG Elementary Stream is conveyed in a private + stream with a S302M registration descriptor attached. + + This shall enable passing an audio signal into userspace so it can + be decoded and played by media software. The corresponding decoder + in ffmpeg is located in 'libavcodec/s302m.c' and is experimental. + +vidtv_channel.[ch] + Implements a 'channel' abstraction. + + When vidtv boots, it will create some hardcoded channels: + + #. Their services will be concatenated to populate the SDT. + + #. Their programs will be concatenated to populate the PAT + + #. Their events will be concatenated to populate the EIT + + #. For each program in the PAT, a PMT section will be created + + #. The PMT section for a channel will be assigned its streams. + + #. Every stream will have its corresponding encoder polled in a + loop to produce TS packets. + These packets may be interleaved by the muxer and then delivered + to the bridge. + +vidtv_mux.[ch] + Implements a MPEG TS mux, loosely based on the ffmpeg + implementation in "libavcodec/mpegtsenc.c" + + The muxer runs a loop which is responsible for: + + #. Keeping track of the amount of time elapsed since the last + iteration. + + #. Polling encoders in order to fetch 'elapsed_time' worth of data. + + #. Inserting PSI and/or PCR packets, if needed. + + #. Padding the resulting stream with NULL packets if + necessary in order to maintain the chosen bit rate. + + #.

These statistics are driver-specific and can +be useful during tests. + +The Siano driver is one example of a driver using +debugfs to convey driver-specific statistics to userspace and it can be +used as a reference. + +This should be further enabled and disabled via a Kconfig +option for convenience. + +Add a way to test video +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Currently, vidtv can only encode PCM audio. It would be great to implement +a barebones version of MPEG-2 video encoding so we can also test video. The +first place to look into is *ISO 13818-2: Information technology — Generic +coding of moving pictures and associated audio information — Part 2: Video*, +which covers the encoding of compressed video in MPEG Transport Streams. + +This might optionally use the Video4Linux2 Test Pattern Generator, v4l2-tpg, +which resides at:: + + drivers/media/common/v4l2-tpg/ + + +Add white noise simulation +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The vidtv tuner already has code to identify whether the chosen frequency +is too far away from a table of valid frequencies. For now, this means that +the demodulator can eventually lose the lock on the signal, since the tuner will +report a bad signal quality. + +A nice addition is to simulate some noise when the signal quality is bad by: + +- Randomly dropping some TS packets. This will trigger a continuity error if the + continuity counter is updated but the packet is not passed on to the demux. + +- Updating the error statistics accordingly (e.g. BER, etc). + +- Simulating some noise in the encoded data. + +Functions and structs used within vidtv +--------------------------------------- + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_bridge.h + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_channel.h + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_demod.h + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_encoder.h + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_mux.h + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_pes.h + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_psi.h + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_s302m.h + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_ts.h + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_tuner.h + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_common.c + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_tuner.c diff --git a/Documentation/driver-api/media/drivers/vimc-devel.rst b/Documentation/driver-api/media/drivers/vimc-devel.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..9e984f914b13 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/driver-api/media/drivers/vimc-devel.rst @@ -0,0 +1,15 @@ +..

If it can't autodetect your card, use the card=X insmod +option with X being the card number as given in the previous section. +To have more than one card, use card=X1[,X2[,X3,[X4[..]]]] + +To automate this, add the following to your /etc/modprobe.d/zoran.conf: + +options zr36067 card=X1[,X2[,X3[,X4[..]]]] +alias char-major-81-0 zr36067 + +One thing to keep in mind is that this doesn't load zr36067.o itself yet. It +just automates loading. If you start using xawtv, the device won't load on +some systems, since you're trying to load modules as a user, which is not +allowed ("permission denied"). A quick workaround is to add 'Load "v4l"' to +XF86Config-4 when you use X by default, or to run 'v4l-conf -c <device>' in +one of your startup scripts (normally rc.local) if you don't use X. Both +make sure that the modules are loaded on startup, under the root account. + +What mainboard should I use (or why doesn't my card work) +--------------------------------------------------------- + + +<insert lousy disclaimer here>. In short: good=SiS/Intel, bad=VIA. + +Experience tells us that people with a Buz, on average, have more problems +than users with a DC10+/LML33. Also, it tells us that people owning a VIA- +based mainboard (ktXXX, MVP3) have more problems than users with a mainboard +based on a different chipset. Here's some notes from Andrew Stevens: + +Here's my experience of using LML33 and Buz on various motherboards: + +- VIA MVP3 + - Forget it. Pointless. Doesn't work. +- Intel 430FX (Pentium 200) + - LML33 perfect, Buz tolerable (3 or 4 frames dropped per movie) +- Intel 440BX (early stepping) + - LML33 tolerable. Buz starting to get annoying (6-10 frames/hour) +- Intel 440BX (late stepping) + - Buz tolerable, LML3 almost perfect (occasional single frame drops) +- SiS735 + - LML33 perfect, Buz tolerable. +- VIA KT133(*) + - LML33 starting to get annoying, Buz poor enough that I have up. + +- Both 440BX boards were dual CPU versions. + +Bernhard Praschinger later added: + +- AMD 751 + - Buz perfect-tolerable +- AMD 760 + - Buz perfect-tolerable + +In general, people on the user mailinglist won't give you much of a chance +if you have a VIA-based motherboard. They may be cheap, but sometimes, you'd +rather want to spend some more money on better boards. In general, VIA +mainboard's IDE/PCI performance will also suck badly compared to others. +You'll noticed the DC10+/DC30+ aren't mentioned anywhere in the overview. +Basically, you can assume that if the Buz works, the LML33 will work too. If +the LML33 works, the DC10+/DC30+ will work too. They're most tolerant to +different mainboard chipsets from all of the supported cards. + +If you experience timeouts during capture, buy a better mainboard or lower +the quality/buffersize during capture (see 'Concerning buffer sizes, quality, +output size etc.'). If it hangs, there's little we can do as of now. Check +your IRQs and make sure the card has its own interrupts. + +Programming interface +--------------------- + +This driver conforms to video4linux2. Support for V4L1 and for the custom +zoran ioctls has been removed in kernel 2.6.38. + +For programming example, please, look at lavrec.c and lavplay.c code in +the MJPEG-tools (http://mjpeg.sf.net/). + +Additional notes for software developers: + + The driver returns maxwidth and maxheight parameters according to + the current TV standard (norm). Therefore, the software which + communicates with the driver and "asks" for these parameters should + first set the correct norm. Well, it seems logically correct: TV + standard is "more constant" for current country than geometry + settings of a variety of TV capture cards which may work in ITU or + square pixel format. + +Applications +------------ + +Applications known to work with this driver: + +TV viewing: + +* xawtv +* kwintv +* probably any TV application that supports video4linux or video4linux2. + +MJPEG capture/playback: + +* mjpegtools/lavtools (or Linux Video Studio) +* gstreamer +* mplayer + +General raw capture: + +* xawtv +* gstreamer +* probably any application that supports video4linux or video4linux2 + +Video editing: + +* Cinelerra +* MainActor +* mjpegtools (or Linux Video Studio) + + +Concerning buffer sizes, quality, output size etc. +-------------------------------------------------- + + +The zr36060 can do 1:2 JPEG compression. This is really the theoretical +maximum that the chipset can reach. The driver can, however, limit compression +to a maximum (size) of 1:4. The reason for this is that some cards (e.g. Buz) +can't handle 1:2 compression without stopping capture after only a few minutes. +With 1:4, it'll mostly work. If you have a Buz, use 'low_bitrate=1' to go into +1:4 max. compression mode. + +100% JPEG quality is thus 1:2 compression in practice. So for a full PAL frame +(size 720x576). The JPEG fields are stored in YUY2 format, so the size of the +fields are 720x288x16/2 bits/field (2 fields/frame) = 207360 bytes/field x 2 = +414720 bytes/frame (add some more bytes for headers and DHT (huffman)/DQT +(quantization) tables, and you'll get to something like 512kB per frame for +1:2 compression. For 1:4 compression, you'd have frames of half this size. + +Some additional explanation by Martin Samuelsson, which also explains the +importance of buffer sizes: +-- +> Hmm, I do not think it is really that way. With the current (downloaded +> at 18:00 Monday) driver I get that output sizes for 10 sec: +> -q 50 -b 128 : 24.283.332 Bytes +> -q 50 -b 256 : 48.442.368 +> -q 25 -b 128 : 24.655.992 +> -q 25 -b 256 : 25.859.820 + +I woke up, and can't go to sleep again. I'll kill some time explaining why +this doesn't look strange to me. + +Let's do some math using a width of 704 pixels. I'm not sure whether the Buz +actually use that number or not, but that's not too important right now. + +704x288 pixels, one field, is 202752 pixels. Divided by 64 pixels per block; +3168 blocks per field. Each pixel consist of two bytes; 128 bytes per block; +1024 bits per block. 100% in the new driver mean 1:2 compression; the maximum +output becomes 512 bits per block. Actually 510, but 512 is simpler to use +for calculations. + +Let's say that we specify d1q50. We thus want 256 bits per block; times 3168 +becomes 811008 bits; 101376 bytes per field. We're talking raw bits and bytes +here, so we don't need to do any fancy corrections for bits-per-pixel or such +things. 101376 bytes per field. + +d1 video contains two fields per frame. Those sum up to 202752 bytes per +frame, and one of those frames goes into each buffer. + +But wait a second! -b128 gives 128kB buffers! It's not possible to cram +202752 bytes of JPEG data into 128kB! + +This is what the driver notice and automatically compensate for in your +examples. Let's do some math using this information: + +128kB is 131072 bytes. In this buffer, we want to store two fields, which +leaves 65536 bytes for each field. Using 3168 blocks per field, we get +20.68686868... available bytes per block; 165 bits. We can't allow the +request for 256 bits per block when there's only 165 bits available! The -q50 +option is silently overridden, and the -b128 option takes precedence, leaving +us with the equivalence of -q32. + +This gives us a data rate of 165 bits per block, which, times 3168, sums up +to 65340 bytes per field, out of the allowed 65536. The current driver has +another level of rate limiting; it won't accept -q values that fill more than +6/8 of the specified buffers. (I'm not sure why. "Playing it safe" seem to be +a safe bet. Personally, I think I would have lowered requested-bits-per-block +by one, or something like that.) We can't use 165 bits per block, but have to +lower it again, to 6/8 of the available buffer space: We end up with 124 bits +per block, the equivalence of -q24. With 128kB buffers, you can't use greater +than -q24 at -d1. (And PAL, and 704 pixels width...) + +The third example is limited to -q24 through the same process. The second +example, using very similar calculations, is limited to -q48. The only +example that actually grab at the specified -q value is the last one, which +is clearly visible, looking at the file size. +-- + +Conclusion: the quality of the resulting movie depends on buffer size, quality, +whether or not you use 'low_bitrate=1' as insmod option for the zr36060.c +module to do 1:4 instead of 1:2 compression, etc. + +If you experience timeouts, lowering the quality/buffersize or using +'low_bitrate=1 as insmod option for zr36060.o might actually help, as is +proven by the Buz. + +It hangs/crashes/fails/whatevers!

It is only of interest for Digital TV device driver writers. +The header file for this kABI is named ``demux.h`` and located in +``include/media``. + +The demux kABI should be implemented for each demux in the system. It is +used to select the TS source of a demux and to manage the demux resources. +When the demux client allocates a resource via the demux kABI, it receives +a pointer to the kABI of that resource. + +Each demux receives its TS input from a DVB front-end or from memory, as +set via this demux kABI. In a system with more than one front-end, the kABI +can be used to select one of the DVB front-ends as a TS source for a demux, +unless this is fixed in the HW platform. + +The demux kABI only controls front-ends regarding to their connections with +demuxes; the kABI used to set the other front-end parameters, such as +tuning, are defined via the Digital TV Frontend kABI. + +The functions that implement the abstract interface demux should be defined +static or module private and registered to the Demux core for external +access.

[#f2] For ISDB-T, it may provide both a global statistics and a per-layer + set of statistics. On such cases, len should be equal to 4.

When no carrier is detected, the gain is + at the maximum value (so, strength is on its minimal). + + - As the gain is visible through the set of registers that adjust the gain, + typically, this statistics is always available [#f3]_. + + - Drivers should try to make it available all the times, as these statistics + can be used when adjusting an antenna position and to check for troubles + at the cabling. + + .. [#f3] On a few devices, the gain keeps floating if there is no carrier. + On such devices, strength report should check first if carrier is + detected at the tuner (``FE_HAS_CARRIER``, see :c:type:`fe_status`), + and otherwise return the lowest possible value. + +Carrier Signal to Noise ratio (:ref:`DTV-STAT-CNR`) + - Signal to Noise ratio for the main carrier. + + - Signal to Noise measurement depends on the device.

So, you should use good sense. + +Note that addressing one ``checkpatch.pl`` issue (of any kind) alone may lead +to having longer lines than 80 characters per line. While this is not +strictly prohibited, efforts should be made towards staying within 80 +characters per line. This could include using re-factoring code that leads +to less indentation, shorter variable or function names and last but not +least, simply wrapping the lines. + +In particular, we accept lines with more than 80 columns: + + - on strings, as they shouldn't be broken due to line length limits; + - when a function or variable name need to have a big identifier name, + which keeps hard to honor the 80 columns limit; + - on arithmetic expressions, when breaking lines makes them harder to + read; + - when they avoid a line to end with an open parenthesis or an open + bracket. + +Key Cycle Dates +--------------- + +New submissions can be sent at any time, but if they intend to hit the +next merge window they should be sent before -rc5, and ideally stabilized +in the linux-media branch by -rc6. + +Review Cadence +-------------- + +Provided that your patch is at https://patchwork.linuxtv.org, it should +be sooner or later handled, so you don't need to re-submit a patch. + +Except for bug fixes, we don't usually add new patches to the development +tree between -rc6 and the next -rc1. + +Please notice that the media subsystem is a high traffic one, so it +could take a while for us to be able to review your patches.

This document focus +on the kernel-side implementation of the media framework. + +Abstract media device model +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Discovering a device internal topology, and configuring it at runtime, is one +of the goals of the media framework. To achieve this, hardware devices are +modelled as an oriented graph of building blocks called entities connected +through pads. + +An entity is a basic media hardware building block. It can correspond to +a large variety of logical blocks such as physical hardware devices +(CMOS sensor for instance), logical hardware devices (a building block +in a System-on-Chip image processing pipeline), DMA channels or physical +connectors. + +A pad is a connection endpoint through which an entity can interact with +other entities. Data (not restricted to video) produced by an entity +flows from the entity's output to one or more entity inputs. Pads should +not be confused with physical pins at chip boundaries. + +A link is a point-to-point oriented connection between two pads, either +on the same entity or on different entities. Data flows from a source +pad to a sink pad. + +Media device +^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +A media device is represented by a struct media_device +instance, defined in ``include/media/media-device.h``. +Allocation of the structure is handled by the media device driver, usually by +embedding the :c:type:`media_device` instance in a larger driver-specific +structure. + +Drivers initialise media device instances by calling +:c:func:`media_device_init()`. After initialising a media device instance, it is +registered by calling :c:func:`__media_device_register()` via the macro +``media_device_register()`` and unregistered by calling +:c:func:`media_device_unregister()`. An initialised media device must be +eventually cleaned up by calling :c:func:`media_device_cleanup()`. + +Note that it is not allowed to unregister a media device instance that was not +previously registered, or clean up a media device instance that was not +previously initialised. + +Entities +^^^^^^^^ + +Entities are represented by a struct media_entity +instance, defined in ``include/media/media-entity.h``. The structure is usually +embedded into a higher-level structure, such as +:c:type:`v4l2_subdev` or :c:type:`video_device` +instances, although drivers can allocate entities directly. + +Drivers initialize entity pads by calling +:c:func:`media_entity_pads_init()`. + +Drivers register entities with a media device by calling +:c:func:`media_device_register_entity()` +and unregistered by calling +:c:func:`media_device_unregister_entity()`. + +Interfaces +^^^^^^^^^^ + +Interfaces are represented by a +struct media_interface instance, defined in +``include/media/media-entity.h``. Currently, only one type of interface is +defined: a device node. Such interfaces are represented by a +struct media_intf_devnode. + +Drivers initialize and create device node interfaces by calling +:c:func:`media_devnode_create()` +and remove them by calling: +:c:func:`media_devnode_remove()`. + +Pads +^^^^ +Pads are represented by a struct media_pad instance, +defined in ``include/media/media-entity.h``. Each entity stores its pads in +a pads array managed by the entity driver. Drivers usually embed the array in +a driver-specific structure. + +Pads are identified by their entity and their 0-based index in the pads +array. + +Both information are stored in the struct media_pad, +making the struct media_pad pointer the canonical way +to store and pass link references. + +Pads have flags that describe the pad capabilities and state. + +``MEDIA_PAD_FL_SINK`` indicates that the pad supports sinking data. +``MEDIA_PAD_FL_SOURCE`` indicates that the pad supports sourcing data. + +.. note:: + + One and only one of ``MEDIA_PAD_FL_SINK`` or ``MEDIA_PAD_FL_SOURCE`` must + be set for each pad. + +Links +^^^^^ + +Links are represented by a struct media_link instance, +defined in ``include/media/media-entity.h``. There are two types of links: + +**1. pad to pad links**: + +Associate two entities via their PADs. Each entity has a list that points +to all links originating at or targeting any of its pads. +A given link is thus stored twice, once in the source entity and once in +the target entity. + +Drivers create pad to pad links by calling: +:c:func:`media_create_pad_link()` and remove with +:c:func:`media_entity_remove_links()`. + +**2. interface to entity links**: + +Associate one interface to a Link. + +Drivers create interface to entity links by calling: +:c:func:`media_create_intf_link()` and remove with +:c:func:`media_remove_intf_links()`. + +.. note:: + + Links can only be created after having both ends already created. + +Links have flags that describe the link capabilities and state. The +valid values are described at :c:func:`media_create_pad_link()` and +:c:func:`media_create_intf_link()`. + +Graph traversal +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +The media framework provides APIs to iterate over entities in a graph. + +To iterate over all entities belonging to a media device, drivers can use +the media_device_for_each_entity macro, defined in +``include/media/media-device.h``. + +.. code-block:: c + + struct media_entity *entity; + + media_device_for_each_entity(entity, mdev) { + // entity will point to each entity in turn + ... + } + +Drivers might also need to iterate over all entities in a graph that can be +reached only through enabled links starting at a given entity. The media +framework provides a depth-first graph traversal API for that purpose. + +.. note:: + + Graphs with cycles (whether directed or undirected) are **NOT** + supported by the graph traversal API. To prevent infinite loops, the graph + traversal code limits the maximum depth to ``MEDIA_ENTITY_ENUM_MAX_DEPTH``, + currently defined as 16. + +Drivers initiate a graph traversal by calling +:c:func:`media_graph_walk_start()` + +The graph structure, provided by the caller, is initialized to start graph +traversal at the given entity. + +Drivers can then retrieve the next entity by calling +:c:func:`media_graph_walk_next()` + +When the graph traversal is complete the function will return ``NULL``. + +Graph traversal can be interrupted at any moment. No cleanup function call +is required and the graph structure can be freed normally. + +Helper functions can be used to find a link between two given pads, or a pad +connected to another pad through an enabled link +(:c:func:`media_entity_find_link()`, :c:func:`media_pad_remote_pad_first()`, +:c:func:`media_entity_remote_source_pad_unique()` and +:c:func:`media_pad_remote_pad_unique()`). + +Use count and power handling +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Due to the wide differences between drivers regarding power management +needs, the media controller does not implement power management. However, +the struct media_entity includes a ``use_count`` +field that media drivers +can use to track the number of users of every entity for power management +needs. + +The :c:type:`media_entity<media_entity>`.\ ``use_count`` field is owned by +media drivers and must not be +touched by entity drivers. Access to the field must be protected by the +:c:type:`media_device`.\ ``graph_mutex`` lock. + +Links setup +^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Link properties can be modified at runtime by calling +:c:func:`media_entity_setup_link()`. + +Pipelines and media streams +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +A media stream is a stream of pixels or metadata originating from one or more +source devices (such as a sensors) and flowing through media entity pads +towards the final sinks. The stream can be modified on the route by the +devices (e.g. scaling or pixel format conversions), or it can be split into +multiple branches, or multiple branches can be merged. + +A media pipeline is a set of media streams which are interdependent. This +interdependency can be caused by the hardware (e.g. configuration of a second +stream cannot be changed if the first stream has been enabled) or by the driver +due to the software design. Most commonly a media pipeline consists of a single +stream which does not branch. + +When starting streaming, drivers must notify all entities in the pipeline to +prevent link states from being modified during streaming by calling +:c:func:`media_pipeline_start()`. + +The function will mark all the pads which are part of the pipeline as streaming. + +The struct media_pipeline instance pointed to by the pipe argument will be +stored in every pad in the pipeline. Drivers should embed the struct +media_pipeline in higher-level pipeline structures and can then access the +pipeline through the struct media_pad pipe field. + +Calls to :c:func:`media_pipeline_start()` can be nested. +The pipeline pointer must be identical for all nested calls to the function. + +:c:func:`media_pipeline_start()` may return an error. In that case, +it will clean up any of the changes it did by itself. + +When stopping the stream, drivers must notify the entities with +:c:func:`media_pipeline_stop()`. + +If multiple calls to :c:func:`media_pipeline_start()` have been +made the same number of :c:func:`media_pipeline_stop()` calls +are required to stop streaming. +The :c:type:`media_entity`.\ ``pipe`` field is reset to ``NULL`` on the last +nested stop call. + +Link configuration will fail with ``-EBUSY`` by default if either end of the +link is a streaming entity. Links that can be modified while streaming must +be marked with the ``MEDIA_LNK_FL_DYNAMIC`` flag. + +If other operations need to be disallowed on streaming entities (such as +changing entities configuration parameters) drivers can explicitly check the +media_entity stream_count field to find out if an entity is streaming. This +operation must be done with the media_device graph_mutex held. + +Link validation +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Link validation is performed by :c:func:`media_pipeline_start()` +for any entity which has sink pads in the pipeline. The +:c:type:`media_entity`.\ ``link_validate()`` callback is used for that +purpose. In ``link_validate()`` callback, entity driver should check +that the properties of the source pad of the connected entity and its own +sink pad match. It is up to the type of the entity (and in the end, the +properties of the hardware) what matching actually means. + +Subsystems should facilitate link validation by providing subsystem specific +helper functions to provide easy access for commonly needed information, and +in the end provide a way to use driver-specific callbacks. + +Media Controller Device Allocator API +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +When the media device belongs to more than one driver, the shared media +device is allocated with the shared struct device as the key for look ups. + +The shared media device should stay in registered state until the last +driver unregisters it. In addition, the media device should be released when +all the references are released. Each driver gets a reference to the media +device during probe, when it allocates the media device. If media device is +already allocated, the allocate API bumps up the refcount and returns the +existing media device. The driver puts the reference back in its disconnect +routine when it calls :c:func:`media_device_delete()`. + +The media device is unregistered and cleaned up from the kref put handler to +ensure that the media device stays in registered state until the last driver +unregisters the media device. + +**Driver Usage** + +Drivers should use the appropriate media-core routines to manage the shared +media device life-time handling the two states: +1. allocate -> register -> delete +2. get reference to already registered device -> delete + +call :c:func:`media_device_delete()` routine to make sure the shared media +device delete is handled correctly. + +**driver probe:** +Call :c:func:`media_device_usb_allocate()` to allocate or get a reference +Call :c:func:`media_device_register()`, if media devnode isn't registered + +**driver disconnect:** +Call :c:func:`media_device_delete()` to free the media_device.

Instead, + an extra code is produced to indicate key repeats. + +However, most of the remote controllers use infrared (IR) to transmit signals. +As there are several protocols used to modulate infrared signals, one +important part of the core is dedicated to adjust the driver and the core +system to support the infrared protocol used by the emitter. + +The infrared transmission is done by blinking a infrared emitter using a +carrier. The carrier can be switched on or off by the IR transmitter +hardware. When the carrier is switched on, it is called *PULSE*. +When the carrier is switched off, it is called *SPACE*. + +In other words, a typical IR transmission can be viewed as a sequence of +*PULSE* and *SPACE* events, each with a given duration. + +The carrier parameters (frequency, duty cycle) and the intervals for +*PULSE* and *SPACE* events depend on the protocol. +For example, the NEC protocol uses a carrier of 38kHz, and transmissions +start with a 9ms *PULSE* and a 4.5ms SPACE. It then transmits 16 bits of +scan code, being 8 bits for address (usually it is a fixed number for a +given remote controller), followed by 8 bits of code. A bit "1" is modulated +with 560µs *PULSE* followed by 1690µs *SPACE* and a bit "0" is modulated +with 560µs *PULSE* followed by 560µs *SPACE*. + +At receiver, a simple low-pass filter can be used to convert the received +signal in a sequence of *PULSE/SPACE* events, filtering out the carrier +frequency. Due to that, the receiver doesn't care about the carrier's +actual frequency parameters: all it has to do is to measure the amount +of time it receives *PULSE/SPACE* events. +So, a simple IR receiver hardware will just provide a sequence of timings +for those events to the Kernel. The drivers for hardware with such kind of +receivers are identified by ``RC_DRIVER_IR_RAW``, as defined by +:c:type:`rc_driver_type`\ [#f2]_. Other hardware come with a +microcontroller that decode the *PULSE/SPACE* sequence and return scan +codes to the Kernel. Such kind of receivers are identified +by ``RC_DRIVER_SCANCODE``. + +.. [#f2] + + The RC core also supports devices that have just IR emitters, + without any receivers. Right now, all such devices work only in + raw TX mode. Such kind of hardware is identified as + ``RC_DRIVER_IR_RAW_TX``. + +When the RC core receives events produced by ``RC_DRIVER_IR_RAW`` IR +receivers, it needs to decode the IR protocol, in order to obtain the +corresponding scan code. The protocols supported by the RC core are +defined at enum :c:type:`rc_proto`. + +When the RC code receives a scan code (either directly, by a driver +of the type ``RC_DRIVER_SCANCODE``, or via its IR decoders), it needs +to convert into a Linux input event code. This is done via a mapping +table. + +The Kernel has support for mapping tables available on most media +devices. It also supports loading a table in runtime, via some +sysfs nodes.

What is required depends on the type of the +bus. These are common for both busses. + +Media bus pixel code +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +See :ref:`v4l2-mbus-pixelcode`. + +Link frequency +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +The :ref:`V4L2_CID_LINK_FREQ <v4l2-cid-link-freq>` control is used to tell the +receiver the frequency of the bus (i.e. it is not the same as the symbol rate). + +``.s_stream()`` callback +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +The struct struct v4l2_subdev_video_ops->s_stream() callback is used by the +receiver driver to control the transmitter driver's streaming state. + + +CSI-2 transmitter drivers +------------------------- + +Pixel rate +^^^^^^^^^^ + +The pixel rate on the bus is calculated as follows:: + + pixel_rate = link_freq * 2 * nr_of_lanes * 16 / k / bits_per_sample + +where + +.. list-table:: variables in pixel rate calculation + :header-rows: 1 + + * - variable or constant + - description + * - link_freq + - The value of the ``V4L2_CID_LINK_FREQ`` integer64 menu item. + * - nr_of_lanes + - Number of data lanes used on the CSI-2 link.

This period +may be as short as 100 µs, during which the receiver observes this state and +proceeds its own part of high speed mode transition. + +Most receivers are capable of autonomously handling this once the software has +configured them to do so, but there are receivers which require software +involvement in observing LP-11 or LP-111 state. 100 µs is a brief period to hit +in software, especially when there is no interrupt telling something is +happening. + +One way to address this is to configure the transmitter side explicitly to LP-11 +or LP-111 state, which requires support from the transmitter hardware. This is +not universally available. Many devices return to this state once streaming is +stopped while the state after power-on is LP-00 or LP-000. + +The ``.pre_streamon()`` callback may be used to prepare a transmitter for +transitioning to streaming state, but not yet start streaming. Similarly, the +``.post_streamoff()`` callback is used to undo what was done by the +``.pre_streamon()`` callback. The caller of ``.pre_streamon()`` is thus required +to call ``.post_streamoff()`` for each successful call of ``.pre_streamon()``. + +In the context of CSI-2, the ``.pre_streamon()`` callback is used to transition +the transmitter to the LP-11 or LP-111 state. This also requires powering on the +device, so this should be only done when it is needed. + +Receiver drivers that do not need explicit LP-11 or LP-111 state setup are +waived from calling the two callbacks. + +Stopping the transmitter +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +A transmitter stops sending the stream of images as a result of +calling the ``.s_stream()`` callback. Some transmitters may stop the +stream at a frame boundary whereas others stop immediately, +effectively leaving the current frame unfinished. The receiver driver +should not make assumptions either way, but function properly in both +cases. diff --git a/Documentation/driver-api/media/v4l2-async.rst b/Documentation/driver-api/media/v4l2-async.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..3422330b3b1f --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/driver-api/media/v4l2-async.rst @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +..

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +V4L2 Controls +============= + +Introduction +------------ + +The V4L2 control API seems simple enough, but quickly becomes very hard to +implement correctly in drivers. But much of the code needed to handle controls +is actually not driver specific and can be moved to the V4L core framework. + +After all, the only part that a driver developer is interested in is: + +1) How do I add a control? +2) How do I set the control's value?

(i.e. try_ctrl) + +All the rest is something that can be done centrally. + +The control framework was created in order to implement all the rules of the +V4L2 specification with respect to controls in a central place. And to make +life as easy as possible for the driver developer. + +Note that the control framework relies on the presence of a struct +:c:type:`v4l2_device` for V4L2 drivers and struct v4l2_subdev for +sub-device drivers. + + +Objects in the framework +------------------------ + +There are two main objects: + +The :c:type:`v4l2_ctrl` object describes the control properties and keeps +track of the control's value (both the current value and the proposed new +value). + +:c:type:`v4l2_ctrl_handler` is the object that keeps track of controls. It +maintains a list of v4l2_ctrl objects that it owns and another list of +references to controls, possibly to controls owned by other handlers. + + +Basic usage for V4L2 and sub-device drivers +------------------------------------------- + +1) Prepare the driver: + +.. code-block:: c + + #include <media/v4l2-ctrls.h> + +1.1) Add the handler to your driver's top-level struct: + +For V4L2 drivers: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct foo_dev { + ... + struct v4l2_device v4l2_dev; + ... + struct v4l2_ctrl_handler ctrl_handler; + ... + }; + +For sub-device drivers: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct foo_dev { + ... + struct v4l2_subdev sd; + ... + struct v4l2_ctrl_handler ctrl_handler; + ... + }; + +1.2) Initialize the handler: + +.. code-block:: c + + v4l2_ctrl_handler_init(&foo->ctrl_handler, nr_of_controls); + +The second argument is a hint telling the function how many controls this +handler is expected to handle. It will allocate a hashtable based on this +information. It is a hint only. + +1.3) Hook the control handler into the driver: + +For V4L2 drivers: + +.. code-block:: c + + foo->v4l2_dev.ctrl_handler = &foo->ctrl_handler; + +For sub-device drivers: + +.. code-block:: c + + foo->sd.ctrl_handler = &foo->ctrl_handler; + +1.4) Clean up the handler at the end: + +.. code-block:: c + + v4l2_ctrl_handler_free(&foo->ctrl_handler); + + +2) Add controls: + +You add non-menu controls by calling :c:func:`v4l2_ctrl_new_std`: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct v4l2_ctrl *v4l2_ctrl_new_std(struct v4l2_ctrl_handler *hdl, + const struct v4l2_ctrl_ops *ops, + u32 id, s32 min, s32 max, u32 step, s32 def); + +Menu and integer menu controls are added by calling +:c:func:`v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu`: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct v4l2_ctrl *v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu(struct v4l2_ctrl_handler *hdl, + const struct v4l2_ctrl_ops *ops, + u32 id, s32 max, s32 skip_mask, s32 def); + +Menu controls with a driver specific menu are added by calling +:c:func:`v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu_items`: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct v4l2_ctrl *v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu_items( + struct v4l2_ctrl_handler *hdl, + const struct v4l2_ctrl_ops *ops, u32 id, s32 max, + s32 skip_mask, s32 def, const char * const *qmenu); + +Standard compound controls can be added by calling +:c:func:`v4l2_ctrl_new_std_compound`: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct v4l2_ctrl *v4l2_ctrl_new_std_compound(struct v4l2_ctrl_handler *hdl, + const struct v4l2_ctrl_ops *ops, u32 id, + const union v4l2_ctrl_ptr p_def); + +Integer menu controls with a driver specific menu can be added by calling +:c:func:`v4l2_ctrl_new_int_menu`: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct v4l2_ctrl *v4l2_ctrl_new_int_menu(struct v4l2_ctrl_handler *hdl, + const struct v4l2_ctrl_ops *ops, + u32 id, s32 max, s32 def, const s64 *qmenu_int); + +These functions are typically called right after the +:c:func:`v4l2_ctrl_handler_init`: + +.. code-block:: c + + static const s64 exp_bias_qmenu[] = { + -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 + }; + static const char * const test_pattern[] = { + "Disabled", + "Vertical Bars", + "Solid Black", + "Solid White", + }; + + v4l2_ctrl_handler_init(&foo->ctrl_handler, nr_of_controls); + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&foo->ctrl_handler, &foo_ctrl_ops, + V4L2_CID_BRIGHTNESS, 0, 255, 1, 128); + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&foo->ctrl_handler, &foo_ctrl_ops, + V4L2_CID_CONTRAST, 0, 255, 1, 128); + v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu(&foo->ctrl_handler, &foo_ctrl_ops, + V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY, + V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY_60HZ, 0, + V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY_DISABLED); + v4l2_ctrl_new_int_menu(&foo->ctrl_handler, &foo_ctrl_ops, + V4L2_CID_EXPOSURE_BIAS, + ARRAY_SIZE(exp_bias_qmenu) - 1, + ARRAY_SIZE(exp_bias_qmenu) / 2 - 1, + exp_bias_qmenu); + v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu_items(&foo->ctrl_handler, &foo_ctrl_ops, + V4L2_CID_TEST_PATTERN, ARRAY_SIZE(test_pattern) - 1, 0, + 0, test_pattern); + ... + if (foo->ctrl_handler.error) { + int err = foo->ctrl_handler.error; + + v4l2_ctrl_handler_free(&foo->ctrl_handler); + return err; + } + +The :c:func:`v4l2_ctrl_new_std` function returns the v4l2_ctrl pointer to +the new control, but if you do not need to access the pointer outside the +control ops, then there is no need to store it. + +The :c:func:`v4l2_ctrl_new_std` function will fill in most fields based on +the control ID except for the min, max, step and default values. These are +passed in the last four arguments. These values are driver specific while +control attributes like type, name, flags are all global. The control's +current value will be set to the default value. + +The :c:func:`v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu` function is very similar but it is +used for menu controls. There is no min argument since that is always 0 for +menu controls, and instead of a step there is a skip_mask argument: if bit +X is 1, then menu item X is skipped. + +The :c:func:`v4l2_ctrl_new_int_menu` function creates a new standard +integer menu control with driver-specific items in the menu. It differs +from v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu in that it doesn't have the mask argument and +takes as the last argument an array of signed 64-bit integers that form an +exact menu item list. + +The :c:func:`v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu_items` function is very similar to +v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu but takes an extra parameter qmenu, which is the +driver specific menu for an otherwise standard menu control. A good example +for this control is the test pattern control for capture/display/sensors +devices that have the capability to generate test patterns. These test +patterns are hardware specific, so the contents of the menu will vary from +device to device. + +Note that if something fails, the function will return NULL or an error and +set ctrl_handler->error to the error code. If ctrl_handler->error was already +set, then it will just return and do nothing. This is also true for +v4l2_ctrl_handler_init if it cannot allocate the internal data structure. + +This makes it easy to init the handler and just add all controls and only check +the error code at the end. Saves a lot of repetitive error checking. + +It is recommended to add controls in ascending control ID order: it will be +a bit faster that way. + +3) Optionally force initial control setup: + +.. code-block:: c + + v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup(&foo->ctrl_handler); + +This will call s_ctrl for all controls unconditionally. Effectively this +initializes the hardware to the default control values. It is recommended +that you do this as this ensures that both the internal data structures and +the hardware are in sync. + +4) Finally: implement the :c:type:`v4l2_ctrl_ops` + +.. code-block:: c + + static const struct v4l2_ctrl_ops foo_ctrl_ops = { + .s_ctrl = foo_s_ctrl, + }; + +Usually all you need is s_ctrl: + +.. code-block:: c + + static int foo_s_ctrl(struct v4l2_ctrl *ctrl) + { + struct foo *state = container_of(ctrl->handler, struct foo, ctrl_handler); + + switch (ctrl->id) { + case V4L2_CID_BRIGHTNESS: + write_reg(0x123, ctrl->val); + break; + case V4L2_CID_CONTRAST: + write_reg(0x456, ctrl->val); + break; + } + return 0; + } + +The control ops are called with the v4l2_ctrl pointer as argument. +The new control value has already been validated, so all you need to do is +to actually update the hardware registers. + +You're done! And this is sufficient for most of the drivers we have. No need +to do any validation of control values, or implement QUERYCTRL, QUERY_EXT_CTRL +and QUERYMENU. And G/S_CTRL as well as G/TRY/S_EXT_CTRLS are automatically supported. + + +.. note:: + + The remainder sections deal with more advanced controls topics and scenarios. + In practice the basic usage as described above is sufficient for most drivers. + + +Inheriting Sub-device Controls +------------------------------ + +When a sub-device is registered with a V4L2 driver by calling +v4l2_device_register_subdev() and the ctrl_handler fields of both v4l2_subdev +and v4l2_device are set, then the controls of the subdev will become +automatically available in the V4L2 driver as well. If the subdev driver +contains controls that already exist in the V4L2 driver, then those will be +skipped (so a V4L2 driver can always override a subdev control). + +What happens here is that v4l2_device_register_subdev() calls +v4l2_ctrl_add_handler() adding the controls of the subdev to the controls +of v4l2_device. + + +Accessing Control Values +------------------------ + +The following union is used inside the control framework to access control +values: + +.. code-block:: c + + union v4l2_ctrl_ptr { + s32 *p_s32; + s64 *p_s64; + char *p_char; + void *p; + }; + +The v4l2_ctrl struct contains these fields that can be used to access both +current and new values: + +.. code-block:: c + + s32 val; + struct { + s32 val; + } cur; + + + union v4l2_ctrl_ptr p_new; + union v4l2_ctrl_ptr p_cur; + +If the control has a simple s32 type, then: + +.. code-block:: c + + &ctrl->val == ctrl->p_new.p_s32 + &ctrl->cur.val == ctrl->p_cur.p_s32 + +For all other types use ctrl->p_cur.p<something>. Basically the val +and cur.val fields can be considered an alias since these are used so often. + +Within the control ops you can freely use these. The val and cur.val speak for +themselves. The p_char pointers point to character buffers of length +ctrl->maximum + 1, and are always 0-terminated. + +Unless the control is marked volatile the p_cur field points to the +current cached control value. When you create a new control this value is made +identical to the default value. After calling v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup() this +value is passed to the hardware. It is generally a good idea to call this +function. + +Whenever a new value is set that new value is automatically cached. This means +that most drivers do not need to implement the g_volatile_ctrl() op. The +exception is for controls that return a volatile register such as a signal +strength read-out that changes continuously. In that case you will need to +implement g_volatile_ctrl like this: + +.. code-block:: c + + static int foo_g_volatile_ctrl(struct v4l2_ctrl *ctrl) + { + switch (ctrl->id) { + case V4L2_CID_BRIGHTNESS: + ctrl->val = read_reg(0x123); + break; + } + } + +Note that you use the 'new value' union as well in g_volatile_ctrl. In general +controls that need to implement g_volatile_ctrl are read-only controls. If they +are not, a V4L2_EVENT_CTRL_CH_VALUE will not be generated when the control +changes. + +To mark a control as volatile you have to set V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_VOLATILE: + +.. code-block:: c + + ctrl = v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&sd->ctrl_handler, ...); + if (ctrl) + ctrl->flags |= V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_VOLATILE; + +For try/s_ctrl the new values (i.e. as passed by the user) are filled in and +you can modify them in try_ctrl or set them in s_ctrl. The 'cur' union +contains the current value, which you can use (but not change!) as well. + +If s_ctrl returns 0 (OK), then the control framework will copy the new final +values to the 'cur' union. + +While in g_volatile/s/try_ctrl you can access the value of all controls owned +by the same handler since the handler's lock is held. If you need to access +the value of controls owned by other handlers, then you have to be very careful +not to introduce deadlocks. + +Outside of the control ops you have to go through to helper functions to get +or set a single control value safely in your driver: + +.. code-block:: c + + s32 v4l2_ctrl_g_ctrl(struct v4l2_ctrl *ctrl); + int v4l2_ctrl_s_ctrl(struct v4l2_ctrl *ctrl, s32 val); + +These functions go through the control framework just as VIDIOC_G/S_CTRL ioctls +do. Don't use these inside the control ops g_volatile/s/try_ctrl, though, that +will result in a deadlock since these helpers lock the handler as well. + +You can also take the handler lock yourself: + +.. code-block:: c + + mutex_lock(&state->ctrl_handler.lock); + pr_info("String value is '%s'\n", ctrl1->p_cur.p_char); + pr_info("Integer value is '%s'\n", ctrl2->cur.val); + mutex_unlock(&state->ctrl_handler.lock); + + +Menu Controls +------------- + +The v4l2_ctrl struct contains this union: + +.. code-block:: c + + union { + u32 step; + u32 menu_skip_mask; + }; + +For menu controls menu_skip_mask is used. What it does is that it allows you +to easily exclude certain menu items. This is used in the VIDIOC_QUERYMENU +implementation where you can return -EINVAL if a certain menu item is not +present. Note that VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL always returns a step value of 1 for +menu controls. + +A good example is the MPEG Audio Layer II Bitrate menu control where the +menu is a list of standardized possible bitrates. But in practice hardware +implementations will only support a subset of those. By setting the skip +mask you can tell the framework which menu items should be skipped. Setting +it to 0 means that all menu items are supported. + +You set this mask either through the v4l2_ctrl_config struct for a custom +control, or by calling v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu(). + + +Custom Controls +--------------- + +Driver specific controls can be created using v4l2_ctrl_new_custom(): + +.. code-block:: c + + static const struct v4l2_ctrl_config ctrl_filter = { + .ops = &ctrl_custom_ops, + .id = V4L2_CID_MPEG_CX2341X_VIDEO_SPATIAL_FILTER, + .name = "Spatial Filter", + .type = V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_INTEGER, + .flags = V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_SLIDER, + .max = 15, + .step = 1, + }; + + ctrl = v4l2_ctrl_new_custom(&foo->ctrl_handler, &ctrl_filter, NULL); + +The last argument is the priv pointer which can be set to driver-specific +private data. + +The v4l2_ctrl_config struct also has a field to set the is_private flag. + +If the name field is not set, then the framework will assume this is a standard +control and will fill in the name, type and flags fields accordingly. + + +Active and Grabbed Controls +--------------------------- + +If you get more complex relationships between controls, then you may have to +activate and deactivate controls. For example, if the Chroma AGC control is +on, then the Chroma Gain control is inactive. That is, you may set it, but +the value will not be used by the hardware as long as the automatic gain +control is on. Typically user interfaces can disable such input fields. + +You can set the 'active' status using v4l2_ctrl_activate(). By default all +controls are active. Note that the framework does not check for this flag. +It is meant purely for GUIs. The function is typically called from within +s_ctrl. + +The other flag is the 'grabbed' flag. A grabbed control means that you cannot +change it because it is in use by some resource. Typical examples are MPEG +bitrate controls that cannot be changed while capturing is in progress. + +If a control is set to 'grabbed' using v4l2_ctrl_grab(), then the framework +will return -EBUSY if an attempt is made to set this control. The +v4l2_ctrl_grab() function is typically called from the driver when it +starts or stops streaming. + + +Control Clusters +---------------- + +By default all controls are independent from the others. But in more +complex scenarios you can get dependencies from one control to another. +In that case you need to 'cluster' them: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct foo { + struct v4l2_ctrl_handler ctrl_handler; + #define AUDIO_CL_VOLUME (0) + #define AUDIO_CL_MUTE (1) + struct v4l2_ctrl *audio_cluster[2]; + ... + }; + + state->audio_cluster[AUDIO_CL_VOLUME] = + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&state->ctrl_handler, ...); + state->audio_cluster[AUDIO_CL_MUTE] = + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&state->ctrl_handler, ...); + v4l2_ctrl_cluster(ARRAY_SIZE(state->audio_cluster), state->audio_cluster); + +From now on whenever one or more of the controls belonging to the same +cluster is set (or 'gotten', or 'tried'), only the control ops of the first +control ('volume' in this example) is called. You effectively create a new +composite control. Similar to how a 'struct' works in C. + +So when s_ctrl is called with V4L2_CID_AUDIO_VOLUME as argument, you should set +all two controls belonging to the audio_cluster: + +.. code-block:: c + + static int foo_s_ctrl(struct v4l2_ctrl *ctrl) + { + struct foo *state = container_of(ctrl->handler, struct foo, ctrl_handler); + + switch (ctrl->id) { + case V4L2_CID_AUDIO_VOLUME: { + struct v4l2_ctrl *mute = ctrl->cluster[AUDIO_CL_MUTE]; + + write_reg(0x123, mute->val ? 0 : ctrl->val); + break; + } + case V4L2_CID_CONTRAST: + write_reg(0x456, ctrl->val); + break; + } + return 0; + } + +In the example above the following are equivalent for the VOLUME case: + +.. code-block:: c + + ctrl == ctrl->cluster[AUDIO_CL_VOLUME] == state->audio_cluster[AUDIO_CL_VOLUME] + ctrl->cluster[AUDIO_CL_MUTE] == state->audio_cluster[AUDIO_CL_MUTE] + +In practice using cluster arrays like this becomes very tiresome. So instead +the following equivalent method is used: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct { + /* audio cluster */ + struct v4l2_ctrl *volume; + struct v4l2_ctrl *mute; + }; + +The anonymous struct is used to clearly 'cluster' these two control pointers, +but it serves no other purpose. The effect is the same as creating an +array with two control pointers. So you can just do: + +.. code-block:: c + + state->volume = v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&state->ctrl_handler, ...); + state->mute = v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&state->ctrl_handler, ...); + v4l2_ctrl_cluster(2, &state->volume); + +And in foo_s_ctrl you can use these pointers directly: state->mute->val. + +Note that controls in a cluster may be NULL. For example, if for some +reason mute was never added (because the hardware doesn't support that +particular feature), then mute will be NULL. So in that case we have a +cluster of 2 controls, of which only 1 is actually instantiated. The +only restriction is that the first control of the cluster must always be +present, since that is the 'master' control of the cluster. The master +control is the one that identifies the cluster and that provides the +pointer to the v4l2_ctrl_ops struct that is used for that cluster. + +Obviously, all controls in the cluster array must be initialized to either +a valid control or to NULL. + +In rare cases you might want to know which controls of a cluster actually +were set explicitly by the user. For this you can check the 'is_new' flag of +each control. For example, in the case of a volume/mute cluster the 'is_new' +flag of the mute control would be set if the user called VIDIOC_S_CTRL for +mute only. If the user would call VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS for both mute and volume +controls, then the 'is_new' flag would be 1 for both controls. + +The 'is_new' flag is always 1 when called from v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup(). + + +Handling autogain/gain-type Controls with Auto Clusters +------------------------------------------------------- + +A common type of control cluster is one that handles 'auto-foo/foo'-type +controls. Typical examples are autogain/gain, autoexposure/exposure, +autowhitebalance/red balance/blue balance. In all cases you have one control +that determines whether another control is handled automatically by the hardware, +or whether it is under manual control from the user. + +If the cluster is in automatic mode, then the manual controls should be +marked inactive and volatile. When the volatile controls are read the +g_volatile_ctrl operation should return the value that the hardware's automatic +mode set up automatically. + +If the cluster is put in manual mode, then the manual controls should become +active again and the volatile flag is cleared (so g_volatile_ctrl is no longer +called while in manual mode). In addition just before switching to manual mode +the current values as determined by the auto mode are copied as the new manual +values. + +Finally the V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_UPDATE should be set for the auto control since +changing that control affects the control flags of the manual controls. + +In order to simplify this a special variation of v4l2_ctrl_cluster was +introduced: + +.. code-block:: c + + void v4l2_ctrl_auto_cluster(unsigned ncontrols, struct v4l2_ctrl **controls, + u8 manual_val, bool set_volatile); + +The first two arguments are identical to v4l2_ctrl_cluster. The third argument +tells the framework which value switches the cluster into manual mode. The +last argument will optionally set V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_VOLATILE for the non-auto controls. +If it is false, then the manual controls are never volatile. You would typically +use that if the hardware does not give you the option to read back to values as +determined by the auto mode (e.g. if autogain is on, the hardware doesn't allow +you to obtain the current gain value). + +The first control of the cluster is assumed to be the 'auto' control. + +Using this function will ensure that you don't need to handle all the complex +flag and volatile handling. + + +VIDIOC_LOG_STATUS Support +------------------------- + +This ioctl allow you to dump the current status of a driver to the kernel log. +The v4l2_ctrl_handler_log_status(ctrl_handler, prefix) can be used to dump the +value of the controls owned by the given handler to the log. You can supply a +prefix as well. If the prefix didn't end with a space, then ': ' will be added +for you. + + +Different Handlers for Different Video Nodes +-------------------------------------------- + +Usually the V4L2 driver has just one control handler that is global for +all video nodes. But you can also specify different control handlers for +different video nodes. You can do that by manually setting the ctrl_handler +field of struct video_device. + +That is no problem if there are no subdevs involved but if there are, then +you need to block the automatic merging of subdev controls to the global +control handler. You do that by simply setting the ctrl_handler field in +struct v4l2_device to NULL. Now v4l2_device_register_subdev() will no longer +merge subdev controls. + +After each subdev was added, you will then have to call v4l2_ctrl_add_handler +manually to add the subdev's control handler (sd->ctrl_handler) to the desired +control handler. This control handler may be specific to the video_device or +for a subset of video_device's. For example: the radio device nodes only have +audio controls, while the video and vbi device nodes share the same control +handler for the audio and video controls. + +If you want to have one handler (e.g. for a radio device node) have a subset +of another handler (e.g. for a video device node), then you should first add +the controls to the first handler, add the other controls to the second +handler and finally add the first handler to the second. For example: + +.. code-block:: c + + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&radio_ctrl_handler, &radio_ops, V4L2_CID_AUDIO_VOLUME, ...); + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&radio_ctrl_handler, &radio_ops, V4L2_CID_AUDIO_MUTE, ...); + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&video_ctrl_handler, &video_ops, V4L2_CID_BRIGHTNESS, ...); + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&video_ctrl_handler, &video_ops, V4L2_CID_CONTRAST, ...); + v4l2_ctrl_add_handler(&video_ctrl_handler, &radio_ctrl_handler, NULL); + +The last argument to v4l2_ctrl_add_handler() is a filter function that allows +you to filter which controls will be added. Set it to NULL if you want to add +all controls. + +Or you can add specific controls to a handler: + +.. code-block:: c + + volume = v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&video_ctrl_handler, &ops, V4L2_CID_AUDIO_VOLUME, ...); + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&video_ctrl_handler, &ops, V4L2_CID_BRIGHTNESS, ...); + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&video_ctrl_handler, &ops, V4L2_CID_CONTRAST, ...); + +What you should not do is make two identical controls for two handlers. +For example: + +.. code-block:: c + + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&radio_ctrl_handler, &radio_ops, V4L2_CID_AUDIO_MUTE, ...); + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&video_ctrl_handler, &video_ops, V4L2_CID_AUDIO_MUTE, ...); + +This would be bad since muting the radio would not change the video mute +control. The rule is to have one control for each hardware 'knob' that you +can twiddle. + + +Finding Controls +---------------- + +Normally you have created the controls yourself and you can store the struct +v4l2_ctrl pointer into your own struct. + +But sometimes you need to find a control from another handler that you do +not own. For example, if you have to find a volume control from a subdev. + +You can do that by calling v4l2_ctrl_find: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct v4l2_ctrl *volume; + + volume = v4l2_ctrl_find(sd->ctrl_handler, V4L2_CID_AUDIO_VOLUME); + +Since v4l2_ctrl_find will lock the handler you have to be careful where you +use it. For example, this is not a good idea: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct v4l2_ctrl_handler ctrl_handler; + + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&ctrl_handler, &video_ops, V4L2_CID_BRIGHTNESS, ...); + v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&ctrl_handler, &video_ops, V4L2_CID_CONTRAST, ...); + +...and in video_ops.s_ctrl: + +.. code-block:: c + + case V4L2_CID_BRIGHTNESS: + contrast = v4l2_find_ctrl(&ctrl_handler, V4L2_CID_CONTRAST); + ... + +When s_ctrl is called by the framework the ctrl_handler.lock is already taken, so +attempting to find another control from the same handler will deadlock. + +It is recommended not to use this function from inside the control ops. + + +Preventing Controls inheritance +------------------------------- + +When one control handler is added to another using v4l2_ctrl_add_handler, then +by default all controls from one are merged to the other. But a subdev might +have low-level controls that make sense for some advanced embedded system, but +not when it is used in consumer-level hardware. In that case you want to keep +those low-level controls local to the subdev. You can do this by simply +setting the 'is_private' flag of the control to 1: + +.. code-block:: c + + static const struct v4l2_ctrl_config ctrl_private = { + .ops = &ctrl_custom_ops, + .id = V4L2_CID_..., + .name = "Some Private Control", + .type = V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_INTEGER, + .max = 15, + .step = 1, + .is_private = 1, + }; + + ctrl = v4l2_ctrl_new_custom(&foo->ctrl_handler, &ctrl_private, NULL); + +These controls will now be skipped when v4l2_ctrl_add_handler is called. + + +V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_CTRL_CLASS Controls +---------------------------------- + +Controls of this type can be used by GUIs to get the name of the control class. +A fully featured GUI can make a dialog with multiple tabs with each tab +containing the controls belonging to a particular control class. The name of +each tab can be found by querying a special control with ID <control class | 1>. + +Drivers do not have to care about this. The framework will automatically add +a control of this type whenever the first control belonging to a new control +class is added. + + +Adding Notify Callbacks +----------------------- + +Sometimes the platform or bridge driver needs to be notified when a control +from a sub-device driver changes. You can set a notify callback by calling +this function: + +.. code-block:: c + + void v4l2_ctrl_notify(struct v4l2_ctrl *ctrl, + void (*notify)(struct v4l2_ctrl *ctrl, void *priv), void *priv); + +Whenever the give control changes value the notify callback will be called +with a pointer to the control and the priv pointer that was passed with +v4l2_ctrl_notify. Note that the control's handler lock is held when the +notify function is called. + +There can be only one notify function per control handler. Any attempt +to set another notify function will cause a WARN_ON. + +v4l2_ctrl functions and data structures +--------------------------------------- + +.. kernel-doc:: include/media/v4l2-ctrls.h diff --git a/Documentation/driver-api/media/v4l2-core.rst b/Documentation/driver-api/media/v4l2-core.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..58cba831ade5 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/driver-api/media/v4l2-core.rst @@ -0,0 +1,28 @@ +..

The :c:type:`video_device`->vfl_type and + :c:type:`video_device`->vfl_dir fields are used to disable ops that do not + match the type/dir combination. E.g. VBI ops are disabled for non-VBI nodes, + and output ops are disabled for a capture device. This makes it possible to + provide just one :c:type:`v4l2_ioctl_ops` struct for both vbi and + video nodes. + +- :c:type:`video_device`->lock: leave to ``NULL`` if you want to do all the + locking in the driver.

See the next section for more details. + +- :c:type:`video_device`->queue: a pointer to the struct vb2_queue + associated with this device node. + If queue is not ``NULL``, and queue->lock is not ``NULL``, then queue->lock + is used for the queuing ioctls (``VIDIOC_REQBUFS``, ``CREATE_BUFS``, + ``QBUF``, ``DQBUF``, ``QUERYBUF``, ``PREPARE_BUF``, ``STREAMON`` and + ``STREAMOFF``) instead of the lock above. + That way the :ref:`vb2 <vb2_framework>` queuing framework does not have + to wait for other ioctls. This queue pointer is also used by the + :ref:`vb2 <vb2_framework>` helper functions to check for + queuing ownership (i.e. is the filehandle calling it allowed to do the + operation). + +- :c:type:`video_device`->prio: keeps track of the priorities. Used to + implement ``VIDIOC_G_PRIORITY`` and ``VIDIOC_S_PRIORITY``. + If left to ``NULL``, then it will use the struct v4l2_prio_state + in :c:type:`v4l2_device`. If you want to have a separate priority state per + (group of) device node(s), then you can point it to your own struct + :c:type:`v4l2_prio_state`. + +- :c:type:`video_device`->dev_parent: you only set this if v4l2_device was + registered with ``NULL`` as the parent ``device`` struct. This only happens + in cases where one hardware device has multiple PCI devices that all share + the same :c:type:`v4l2_device` core. + + The cx88 driver is an example of this: one core :c:type:`v4l2_device` struct, + but it is used by both a raw video PCI device (cx8800) and a MPEG PCI device + (cx8802). Since the :c:type:`v4l2_device` cannot be associated with two PCI + devices at the same time it is setup without a parent device. But when the + struct video_device is initialized you **do** know which parent + PCI device to use and so you set ``dev_device`` to the correct PCI device. + +If you use :c:type:`v4l2_ioctl_ops`, then you should set +:c:type:`video_device`->unlocked_ioctl to :c:func:`video_ioctl2` in your +:c:type:`v4l2_file_operations` struct. + +In some cases you want to tell the core that a function you had specified in +your :c:type:`v4l2_ioctl_ops` should be ignored. You can mark such ioctls by +calling this function before :c:func:`video_register_device` is called: + + :c:func:`v4l2_disable_ioctl <v4l2_disable_ioctl>` + (:c:type:`vdev <video_device>`, cmd). + +This tends to be needed if based on external factors (e.g. which card is +being used) you want to turns off certain features in :c:type:`v4l2_ioctl_ops` +without having to make a new struct. + +The :c:type:`v4l2_file_operations` struct is a subset of file_operations. +The main difference is that the inode argument is omitted since it is never +used. + +If integration with the media framework is needed, you must initialize the +:c:type:`media_entity` struct embedded in the :c:type:`video_device` struct +(entity field) by calling :c:func:`media_entity_pads_init`: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct media_pad *pad = &my_vdev->pad; + int err; + + err = media_entity_pads_init(&vdev->entity, 1, pad); + +The pads array must have been previously initialized. There is no need to +manually set the struct media_entity type and name fields. + +A reference to the entity will be automatically acquired/released when the +video device is opened/closed. + +ioctls and locking +------------------ + +The V4L core provides optional locking services. The main service is the +lock field in struct video_device, which is a pointer to a mutex. +If you set this pointer, then that will be used by unlocked_ioctl to +serialize all ioctls. + +If you are using the :ref:`videobuf2 framework <vb2_framework>`, then there +is a second lock that you can set: :c:type:`video_device`->queue->lock. If +set, then this lock will be used instead of :c:type:`video_device`->lock +to serialize all queuing ioctls (see the previous section +for the full list of those ioctls). + +The advantage of using a different lock for the queuing ioctls is that for some +drivers (particularly USB drivers) certain commands such as setting controls +can take a long time, so you want to use a separate lock for the buffer queuing +ioctls. That way your ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` doesn't stall because the driver is busy +changing the e.g. exposure of the webcam. + +Of course, you can always do all the locking yourself by leaving both lock +pointers at ``NULL``. + +In the case of :ref:`videobuf2 <vb2_framework>` you will need to implement the +``wait_prepare()`` and ``wait_finish()`` callbacks to unlock/lock if applicable. +If you use the ``queue->lock`` pointer, then you can use the helper functions +:c:func:`vb2_ops_wait_prepare` and :c:func:`vb2_ops_wait_finish`. + +The implementation of a hotplug disconnect should also take the lock from +:c:type:`video_device` before calling v4l2_device_disconnect. If you are also +using :c:type:`video_device`->queue->lock, then you have to first lock +:c:type:`video_device`->queue->lock followed by :c:type:`video_device`->lock. +That way you can be sure no ioctl is running when you call +:c:func:`v4l2_device_disconnect`. + +Video device registration +------------------------- + +Next you register the video device with :c:func:`video_register_device`. +This will create the character device for you. + +.. code-block:: c + + err = video_register_device(vdev, VFL_TYPE_VIDEO, -1); + if (err) { + video_device_release(vdev); /* or kfree(my_vdev); */ + return err; + } + +If the :c:type:`v4l2_device` parent device has a not ``NULL`` mdev field, +the video device entity will be automatically registered with the media +device. + +Which device is registered depends on the type argument. The following +types exist: + +========================== ==================== ============================== +:c:type:`vfl_devnode_type` Device name Usage +========================== ==================== ============================== +``VFL_TYPE_VIDEO`` ``/dev/videoX`` for video input/output devices +``VFL_TYPE_VBI`` ``/dev/vbiX`` for vertical blank data (i.e. + closed captions, teletext) +``VFL_TYPE_RADIO`` ``/dev/radioX`` for radio tuners +``VFL_TYPE_SUBDEV`` ``/dev/v4l-subdevX`` for V4L2 subdevices +``VFL_TYPE_SDR`` ``/dev/swradioX`` for Software Defined Radio + (SDR) tuners +``VFL_TYPE_TOUCH`` ``/dev/v4l-touchX`` for touch sensors +========================== ==================== ============================== + +The last argument gives you a certain amount of control over the device +node number used (i.e. the X in ``videoX``). Normally you will pass -1 +to let the v4l2 framework pick the first free number. But sometimes users +want to select a specific node number. It is common that drivers allow +the user to select a specific device node number through a driver module +option. That number is then passed to this function and video_register_device +will attempt to select that device node number. If that number was already +in use, then the next free device node number will be selected and it +will send a warning to the kernel log. + +Another use-case is if a driver creates many devices. In that case it can +be useful to place different video devices in separate ranges. For example, +video capture devices start at 0, video output devices start at 16. +So you can use the last argument to specify a minimum device node number +and the v4l2 framework will try to pick the first free number that is equal +or higher to what you passed. If that fails, then it will just pick the +first free number. + +Since in this case you do not care about a warning about not being able +to select the specified device node number, you can call the function +:c:func:`video_register_device_no_warn` instead. + +Whenever a device node is created some attributes are also created for you. +If you look in ``/sys/class/video4linux`` you see the devices. Go into e.g. +``video0`` and you will see 'name', 'dev_debug' and 'index' attributes. The +'name' attribute is the 'name' field of the video_device struct. The +'dev_debug' attribute can be used to enable core debugging. See the next +section for more detailed information on this. + +The 'index' attribute is the index of the device node: for each call to +:c:func:`video_register_device()` the index is just increased by 1. The +first video device node you register always starts with index 0. + +Users can setup udev rules that utilize the index attribute to make fancy +device names (e.g. '``mpegX``' for MPEG video capture device nodes). + +After the device was successfully registered, then you can use these fields: + +- :c:type:`video_device`->vfl_type: the device type passed to + :c:func:`video_register_device`. +- :c:type:`video_device`->minor: the assigned device minor number. +- :c:type:`video_device`->num: the device node number (i.e. the X in + ``videoX``). +- :c:type:`video_device`->index: the device index number. + +If the registration failed, then you need to call +:c:func:`video_device_release` to free the allocated :c:type:`video_device` +struct, or free your own struct if the :c:type:`video_device` was embedded in +it. The ``vdev->release()`` callback will never be called if the registration +failed, nor should you ever attempt to unregister the device if the +registration failed. + +video device debugging +---------------------- + +The 'dev_debug' attribute that is created for each video, vbi, radio or swradio +device in ``/sys/class/video4linux/<devX>/`` allows you to enable logging of +file operations. + +It is a bitmask and the following bits can be set: + +.. tabularcolumns:: |p{5ex}|L| + +===== ================================================================ +Mask Description +===== ================================================================ +0x01 Log the ioctl name and error code. VIDIOC_(D)QBUF ioctls are + only logged if bit 0x08 is also set. +0x02 Log the ioctl name arguments and error code.

This is achieved by a +``dev_set_drvdata()`` call before registering the V4L2 device instance. +They must also set the struct v4l2_device mdev field to point to a +properly initialized and registered :c:type:`media_device` instance. + +If :c:type:`v4l2_dev <v4l2_device>`\ ->name is empty then it will be set to a +value derived from dev (driver name followed by the bus_id, to be precise). +If you set it up before calling :c:func:`v4l2_device_register` then it will +be untouched. If dev is ``NULL``, then you **must** setup +:c:type:`v4l2_dev <v4l2_device>`\ ->name before calling +:c:func:`v4l2_device_register`. + +You can use :c:func:`v4l2_device_set_name` to set the name based on a driver +name and a driver-global atomic_t instance. This will generate names like +``ivtv0``, ``ivtv1``, etc. If the name ends with a digit, then it will insert +a dash: ``cx18-0``, ``cx18-1``, etc. This function returns the instance number. + +The first ``dev`` argument is normally the ``struct device`` pointer of a +``pci_dev``, ``usb_interface`` or ``platform_device``. It is rare for dev to +be ``NULL``, but it happens with ISA devices or when one device creates +multiple PCI devices, thus making it impossible to associate +:c:type:`v4l2_dev <v4l2_device>` with a particular parent. + +You can also supply a ``notify()`` callback that can be called by sub-devices +to notify you of events. Whether you need to set this depends on the +sub-device. Any notifications a sub-device supports must be defined in a header +in ``include/media/subdevice.h``. + +V4L2 devices are unregistered by calling: + + :c:func:`v4l2_device_unregister` + (:c:type:`v4l2_dev <v4l2_device>`). + +If the dev->driver_data field points to :c:type:`v4l2_dev <v4l2_device>`, +it will be reset to ``NULL``. Unregistering will also automatically unregister +all subdevs from the device. + +If you have a hotpluggable device (e.g. a USB device), then when a disconnect +happens the parent device becomes invalid.

If your driver is not +hotpluggable, then there is no need to call :c:func:`v4l2_device_disconnect`. + +Sometimes you need to iterate over all devices registered by a specific +driver. This is usually the case if multiple device drivers use the same +hardware. E.g. the ivtvfb driver is a framebuffer driver that uses the ivtv +hardware. The same is true for alsa drivers for example. + +You can iterate over all registered devices as follows: + +.. code-block:: c + + static int callback(struct device *dev, void *p) + { + struct v4l2_device *v4l2_dev = dev_get_drvdata(dev); + + /* test if this device was inited */ + if (v4l2_dev == NULL) + return 0; + ... + return 0; + } + + int iterate(void *p) + { + struct device_driver *drv; + int err; + + /* Find driver 'ivtv' on the PCI bus. + pci_bus_type is a global.

This is +commonly used to map a device instance to an index of a module option array. + +The recommended approach is as follows: + +.. code-block:: c + + static atomic_t drv_instance = ATOMIC_INIT(0); + + static int drv_probe(struct pci_dev *pdev, const struct pci_device_id *pci_id) + { + ... + state->instance = atomic_inc_return(&drv_instance) - 1; + } + +If you have multiple device nodes then it can be difficult to know when it is +safe to unregister :c:type:`v4l2_device` for hotpluggable devices.

Such devices are +called 'sub-devices'. + +For a long time the framework was limited to the video_device struct for +creating V4L device nodes and video_buf for handling the video buffers +(note that this document does not discuss the video_buf framework). + +This meant that all drivers had to do the setup of device instances and +connecting to sub-devices themselves. Some of this is quite complicated +to do right and many drivers never did do it correctly. + +There is also a lot of common code that could never be refactored due to +the lack of a framework. + +So this framework sets up the basic building blocks that all drivers +need and this same framework should make it much easier to refactor +common code into utility functions shared by all drivers. + +A good example to look at as a reference is the v4l2-pci-skeleton.c +source that is available in samples/v4l/.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +V4L2 sub-devices +---------------- + +Many drivers need to communicate with sub-devices. These devices can do all +sort of tasks, but most commonly they handle audio and/or video muxing, +encoding or decoding. For webcams common sub-devices are sensors and camera +controllers. + +Usually these are I2C devices, but not necessarily. In order to provide the +driver with a consistent interface to these sub-devices the +:c:type:`v4l2_subdev` struct (v4l2-subdev.h) was created. + +Each sub-device driver must have a :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` struct. This struct +can be stand-alone for simple sub-devices or it might be embedded in a larger +struct if more state information needs to be stored. Usually there is a +low-level device struct (e.g. ``i2c_client``) that contains the device data as +setup by the kernel. It is recommended to store that pointer in the private +data of :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` using :c:func:`v4l2_set_subdevdata`. That makes +it easy to go from a :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` to the actual low-level bus-specific +device data. + +You also need a way to go from the low-level struct to :c:type:`v4l2_subdev`. +For the common i2c_client struct the i2c_set_clientdata() call is used to store +a :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` pointer, for other buses you may have to use other +methods. + +Bridges might also need to store per-subdev private data, such as a pointer to +bridge-specific per-subdev private data. The :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` structure +provides host private data for that purpose that can be accessed with +:c:func:`v4l2_get_subdev_hostdata` and :c:func:`v4l2_set_subdev_hostdata`. + +From the bridge driver perspective, you load the sub-device module and somehow +obtain the :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` pointer. For i2c devices this is easy: you call +``i2c_get_clientdata()``. For other buses something similar needs to be done. +Helper functions exist for sub-devices on an I2C bus that do most of this +tricky work for you. + +Each :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` contains function pointers that sub-device drivers +can implement (or leave ``NULL`` if it is not applicable). Since sub-devices can +do so many different things and you do not want to end up with a huge ops struct +of which only a handful of ops are commonly implemented, the function pointers +are sorted according to category and each category has its own ops struct. + +The top-level ops struct contains pointers to the category ops structs, which +may be NULL if the subdev driver does not support anything from that category. + +It looks like this: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct v4l2_subdev_core_ops { + int (*log_status)(struct v4l2_subdev *sd); + int (*init)(struct v4l2_subdev *sd, u32 val); + ... + }; + + struct v4l2_subdev_tuner_ops { + ... + }; + + struct v4l2_subdev_audio_ops { + ... + }; + + struct v4l2_subdev_video_ops { + ... + }; + + struct v4l2_subdev_pad_ops { + ... + }; + + struct v4l2_subdev_ops { + const struct v4l2_subdev_core_ops *core; + const struct v4l2_subdev_tuner_ops *tuner; + const struct v4l2_subdev_audio_ops *audio; + const struct v4l2_subdev_video_ops *video; + const struct v4l2_subdev_pad_ops *video; + }; + +The core ops are common to all subdevs, the other categories are implemented +depending on the sub-device. E.g. a video device is unlikely to support the +audio ops and vice versa. + +This setup limits the number of function pointers while still making it easy +to add new ops and categories. + +A sub-device driver initializes the :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` struct using: + + :c:func:`v4l2_subdev_init <v4l2_subdev_init>` + (:c:type:`sd <v4l2_subdev>`, &\ :c:type:`ops <v4l2_subdev_ops>`). + + +Afterwards you need to initialize :c:type:`sd <v4l2_subdev>`->name with a +unique name and set the module owner. This is done for you if you use the +i2c helper functions. + +If integration with the media framework is needed, you must initialize the +:c:type:`media_entity` struct embedded in the :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` struct +(entity field) by calling :c:func:`media_entity_pads_init`, if the entity has +pads: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct media_pad *pads = &my_sd->pads; + int err; + + err = media_entity_pads_init(&sd->entity, npads, pads); + +The pads array must have been previously initialized. There is no need to +manually set the struct media_entity function and name fields, but the +revision field must be initialized if needed. + +A reference to the entity will be automatically acquired/released when the +subdev device node (if any) is opened/closed. + +Don't forget to cleanup the media entity before the sub-device is destroyed: + +.. code-block:: c + + media_entity_cleanup(&sd->entity); + +If a sub-device driver implements sink pads, the subdev driver may set the +link_validate field in :c:type:`v4l2_subdev_pad_ops` to provide its own link +validation function. For every link in the pipeline, the link_validate pad +operation of the sink end of the link is called. In both cases the driver is +still responsible for validating the correctness of the format configuration +between sub-devices and video nodes. + +If link_validate op is not set, the default function +:c:func:`v4l2_subdev_link_validate_default` is used instead. This function +ensures that width, height and the media bus pixel code are equal on both source +and sink of the link. Subdev drivers are also free to use this function to +perform the checks mentioned above in addition to their own checks. + +Subdev registration +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +There are currently two ways to register subdevices with the V4L2 core. The +first (traditional) possibility is to have subdevices registered by bridge +drivers. This can be done when the bridge driver has the complete information +about subdevices connected to it and knows exactly when to register them. This +is typically the case for internal subdevices, like video data processing units +within SoCs or complex PCI(e) boards, camera sensors in USB cameras or connected +to SoCs, which pass information about them to bridge drivers, usually in their +platform data. + +There are however also situations where subdevices have to be registered +asynchronously to bridge devices. An example of such a configuration is a Device +Tree based system where information about subdevices is made available to the +system independently from the bridge devices, e.g. when subdevices are defined +in DT as I2C device nodes. The API used in this second case is described further +below. + +Using one or the other registration method only affects the probing process, the +run-time bridge-subdevice interaction is in both cases the same. + +Registering synchronous sub-devices +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +In the **synchronous** case a device (bridge) driver needs to register the +:c:type:`v4l2_subdev` with the v4l2_device: + + :c:func:`v4l2_device_register_subdev <v4l2_device_register_subdev>` + (:c:type:`v4l2_dev <v4l2_device>`, :c:type:`sd <v4l2_subdev>`). + +This can fail if the subdev module disappeared before it could be registered. +After this function was called successfully the subdev->dev field points to +the :c:type:`v4l2_device`. + +If the v4l2_device parent device has a non-NULL mdev field, the sub-device +entity will be automatically registered with the media device. + +You can unregister a sub-device using: + + :c:func:`v4l2_device_unregister_subdev <v4l2_device_unregister_subdev>` + (:c:type:`sd <v4l2_subdev>`). + +Afterwards the subdev module can be unloaded and +:c:type:`sd <v4l2_subdev>`->dev == ``NULL``. + +.. _media-registering-async-subdevs: + +Registering asynchronous sub-devices +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +In the **asynchronous** case subdevice probing can be invoked independently of +the bridge driver availability. The subdevice driver then has to verify whether +all the requirements for a successful probing are satisfied. This can include a +check for a master clock availability. If any of the conditions aren't satisfied +the driver might decide to return ``-EPROBE_DEFER`` to request further reprobing +attempts. Once all conditions are met the subdevice shall be registered using +the :c:func:`v4l2_async_register_subdev` function. Unregistration is +performed using the :c:func:`v4l2_async_unregister_subdev` call. Subdevices +registered this way are stored in a global list of subdevices, ready to be +picked up by bridge drivers. + +Drivers must complete all initialization of the sub-device before +registering it using :c:func:`v4l2_async_register_subdev`, including +enabling runtime PM. This is because the sub-device becomes accessible +as soon as it gets registered. + +Asynchronous sub-device notifiers +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Bridge drivers in turn have to register a notifier object. This is performed +using the :c:func:`v4l2_async_nf_register` call. To unregister the notifier the +driver has to call :c:func:`v4l2_async_nf_unregister`. Before releasing memory +of an unregister notifier, it must be cleaned up by calling +:c:func:`v4l2_async_nf_cleanup`. + +Before registering the notifier, bridge drivers must do two things: first, the +notifier must be initialized using the :c:func:`v4l2_async_nf_init`. Second, +bridge drivers can then begin to form a list of async connection descriptors +that the bridge device needs for its +operation. :c:func:`v4l2_async_nf_add_fwnode`, +:c:func:`v4l2_async_nf_add_fwnode_remote` and :c:func:`v4l2_async_nf_add_i2c` + +Async connection descriptors describe connections to external sub-devices the +drivers for which are not yet probed. Based on an async connection, a media data +or ancillary link may be created when the related sub-device becomes +available. There may be one or more async connections to a given sub-device but +this is not known at the time of adding the connections to the notifier. Async +connections are bound as matching async sub-devices are found, one by one. + +Asynchronous sub-device notifier for sub-devices +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +A driver that registers an asynchronous sub-device may also register an +asynchronous notifier. This is called an asynchronous sub-device notifier andthe +process is similar to that of a bridge driver apart from that the notifier is +initialised using :c:func:`v4l2_async_subdev_nf_init` instead. A sub-device +notifier may complete only after the V4L2 device becomes available, i.e. there's +a path via async sub-devices and notifiers to a notifier that is not an +asynchronous sub-device notifier. + +Asynchronous sub-device registration helper for camera sensor drivers +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +:c:func:`v4l2_async_register_subdev_sensor` is a helper function for sensor +drivers registering their own async connection, but it also registers a notifier +and further registers async connections for lens and flash devices found in +firmware. The notifier for the sub-device is unregistered and cleaned up with +the async sub-device, using :c:func:`v4l2_async_unregister_subdev`. + +Asynchronous sub-device notifier example +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +These functions allocate an async connection descriptor which is of type struct +:c:type:`v4l2_async_connection` embedded in a driver-specific struct. The &struct +:c:type:`v4l2_async_connection` shall be the first member of this struct: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct my_async_connection { + struct v4l2_async_connection asc; + ... + }; + + struct my_async_connection *my_asc; + struct fwnode_handle *ep; + + ... + + my_asc = v4l2_async_nf_add_fwnode_remote(¬ifier, ep, + struct my_async_connection); + fwnode_handle_put(ep); + + if (IS_ERR(my_asc)) + return PTR_ERR(my_asc); + +Asynchronous sub-device notifier callbacks +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +The V4L2 core will then use these connection descriptors to match asynchronously +registered subdevices to them. If a match is detected the ``.bound()`` notifier +callback is called. After all connections have been bound the .complete() +callback is called. When a connection is removed from the system the +``.unbind()`` method is called. All three callbacks are optional. + +Drivers can store any type of custom data in their driver-specific +:c:type:`v4l2_async_connection` wrapper. If any of that data requires special +handling when the structure is freed, drivers must implement the ``.destroy()`` +notifier callback. The framework will call it right before freeing the +:c:type:`v4l2_async_connection`. + +Calling subdev operations +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The advantage of using :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` is that it is a generic struct and +does not contain any knowledge about the underlying hardware. So a driver might +contain several subdevs that use an I2C bus, but also a subdev that is +controlled through GPIO pins. This distinction is only relevant when setting +up the device, but once the subdev is registered it is completely transparent. + +Once the subdev has been registered you can call an ops function either +directly: + +.. code-block:: c + + err = sd->ops->core->g_std(sd, &norm); + +but it is better and easier to use this macro: + +.. code-block:: c + + err = v4l2_subdev_call(sd, core, g_std, &norm); + +The macro will do the right ``NULL`` pointer checks and returns ``-ENODEV`` +if :c:type:`sd <v4l2_subdev>` is ``NULL``, ``-ENOIOCTLCMD`` if either +:c:type:`sd <v4l2_subdev>`->core or :c:type:`sd <v4l2_subdev>`->core->g_std is ``NULL``, or the actual result of the +:c:type:`sd <v4l2_subdev>`->ops->core->g_std ops. + +It is also possible to call all or a subset of the sub-devices: + +.. code-block:: c + + v4l2_device_call_all(v4l2_dev, 0, core, g_std, &norm); + +Any subdev that does not support this ops is skipped and error results are +ignored. If you want to check for errors use this: + +.. code-block:: c + + err = v4l2_device_call_until_err(v4l2_dev, 0, core, g_std, &norm); + +Any error except ``-ENOIOCTLCMD`` will exit the loop with that error. If no +errors (except ``-ENOIOCTLCMD``) occurred, then 0 is returned. + +The second argument to both calls is a group ID. If 0, then all subdevs are +called. If non-zero, then only those whose group ID match that value will +be called. Before a bridge driver registers a subdev it can set +:c:type:`sd <v4l2_subdev>`->grp_id to whatever value it wants (it's 0 by +default). This value is owned by the bridge driver and the sub-device driver +will never modify or use it. + +The group ID gives the bridge driver more control how callbacks are called. +For example, there may be multiple audio chips on a board, each capable of +changing the volume. But usually only one will actually be used when the +user want to change the volume. You can set the group ID for that subdev to +e.g. AUDIO_CONTROLLER and specify that as the group ID value when calling +``v4l2_device_call_all()``. That ensures that it will only go to the subdev +that needs it. + +If the sub-device needs to notify its v4l2_device parent of an event, then +it can call ``v4l2_subdev_notify(sd, notification, arg)``. This macro checks +whether there is a ``notify()`` callback defined and returns ``-ENODEV`` if not. +Otherwise the result of the ``notify()`` call is returned. + +V4L2 sub-device userspace API +----------------------------- + +Bridge drivers traditionally expose one or multiple video nodes to userspace, +and control subdevices through the :c:type:`v4l2_subdev_ops` operations in +response to video node operations. This hides the complexity of the underlying +hardware from applications. For complex devices, finer-grained control of the +device than what the video nodes offer may be required. In those cases, bridge +drivers that implement :ref:`the media controller API <media_controller>` may +opt for making the subdevice operations directly accessible from userspace. + +Device nodes named ``v4l-subdev``\ *X* can be created in ``/dev`` to access +sub-devices directly. If a sub-device supports direct userspace configuration +it must set the ``V4L2_SUBDEV_FL_HAS_DEVNODE`` flag before being registered. + +After registering sub-devices, the :c:type:`v4l2_device` driver can create +device nodes for all registered sub-devices marked with +``V4L2_SUBDEV_FL_HAS_DEVNODE`` by calling +:c:func:`v4l2_device_register_subdev_nodes`. Those device nodes will be +automatically removed when sub-devices are unregistered. + +The device node handles a subset of the V4L2 API. + +``VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL``, +``VIDIOC_QUERYMENU``, +``VIDIOC_G_CTRL``, +``VIDIOC_S_CTRL``, +``VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS``, +``VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS`` and +``VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS``: + + The controls ioctls are identical to the ones defined in V4L2. They + behave identically, with the only exception that they deal only with + controls implemented in the sub-device. Depending on the driver, those + controls can be also be accessed through one (or several) V4L2 device + nodes. + +``VIDIOC_DQEVENT``, +``VIDIOC_SUBSCRIBE_EVENT`` and +``VIDIOC_UNSUBSCRIBE_EVENT`` + + The events ioctls are identical to the ones defined in V4L2. They + behave identically, with the only exception that they deal only with + events generated by the sub-device. Depending on the driver, those + events can also be reported by one (or several) V4L2 device nodes. + + Sub-device drivers that want to use events need to set the + ``V4L2_SUBDEV_FL_HAS_EVENTS`` :c:type:`v4l2_subdev`.flags before registering + the sub-device. After registration events can be queued as usual on the + :c:type:`v4l2_subdev`.devnode device node. + + To properly support events, the ``poll()`` file operation is also + implemented. + +Private ioctls + + All ioctls not in the above list are passed directly to the sub-device + driver through the core::ioctl operation. + +Read-only sub-device userspace API +---------------------------------- + +Bridge drivers that control their connected subdevices through direct calls to +the kernel API realized by :c:type:`v4l2_subdev_ops` structure do not usually +want userspace to be able to change the same parameters through the subdevice +device node and thus do not usually register any. + +It is sometimes useful to report to userspace the current subdevice +configuration through a read-only API, that does not permit applications to +change to the device parameters but allows interfacing to the subdevice device +node to inspect them. + +For instance, to implement cameras based on computational photography, userspace +needs to know the detailed camera sensor configuration (in terms of skipping, +binning, cropping and scaling) for each supported output resolution. To support +such use cases, bridge drivers may expose the subdevice operations to userspace +through a read-only API. + +To create a read-only device node for all the subdevices registered with the +``V4L2_SUBDEV_FL_HAS_DEVNODE`` set, the :c:type:`v4l2_device` driver should call +:c:func:`v4l2_device_register_ro_subdev_nodes`. + +Access to the following ioctls for userspace applications is restricted on +sub-device device nodes registered with +:c:func:`v4l2_device_register_ro_subdev_nodes`. + +``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FMT``, +``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_CROP``, +``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_SELECTION``: + + These ioctls are only allowed on a read-only subdevice device node + for the :ref:`V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_TRY <v4l2-subdev-format-whence>` + formats and selection rectangles. + +``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FRAME_INTERVAL``, +``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_DV_TIMINGS``, +``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_STD``: + + These ioctls are not allowed on a read-only subdevice node. + +In case the ioctl is not allowed, or the format to modify is set to +``V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_ACTIVE``, the core returns a negative error code and +the errno variable is set to ``-EPERM``. + +I2C sub-device drivers +---------------------- + +Since these drivers are so common, special helper functions are available to +ease the use of these drivers (``v4l2-common.h``). + +The recommended method of adding :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` support to an I2C driver +is to embed the :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` struct into the state struct that is +created for each I2C device instance. Very simple devices have no state +struct and in that case you can just create a :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` directly. + +A typical state struct would look like this (where 'chipname' is replaced by +the name of the chip): + +.. code-block:: c + + struct chipname_state { + struct v4l2_subdev sd; + ... /* additional state fields */ + }; + +Initialize the :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` struct as follows: + +.. code-block:: c + + v4l2_i2c_subdev_init(&state->sd, client, subdev_ops); + +This function will fill in all the fields of :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` ensure that +the :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` and i2c_client both point to one another. + +You should also add a helper inline function to go from a :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` +pointer to a chipname_state struct: + +.. code-block:: c + + static inline struct chipname_state *to_state(struct v4l2_subdev *sd) + { + return container_of(sd, struct chipname_state, sd); + } + +Use this to go from the :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` struct to the ``i2c_client`` +struct: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct i2c_client *client = v4l2_get_subdevdata(sd); + +And this to go from an ``i2c_client`` to a :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` struct: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct v4l2_subdev *sd = i2c_get_clientdata(client); + +Make sure to call +:c:func:`v4l2_device_unregister_subdev`\ (:c:type:`sd <v4l2_subdev>`) +when the ``remove()`` callback is called. This will unregister the sub-device +from the bridge driver. It is safe to call this even if the sub-device was +never registered. + +You need to do this because when the bridge driver destroys the i2c adapter +the ``remove()`` callbacks are called of the i2c devices on that adapter. +After that the corresponding v4l2_subdev structures are invalid, so they +have to be unregistered first. Calling +:c:func:`v4l2_device_unregister_subdev`\ (:c:type:`sd <v4l2_subdev>`) +from the ``remove()`` callback ensures that this is always done correctly. + + +The bridge driver also has some helper functions it can use: + +.. code-block:: c + + struct v4l2_subdev *sd = v4l2_i2c_new_subdev(v4l2_dev, adapter, + "module_foo", "chipid", 0x36, NULL); + +This loads the given module (can be ``NULL`` if no module needs to be loaded) +and calls :c:func:`i2c_new_client_device` with the given ``i2c_adapter`` and +chip/address arguments. If all goes well, then it registers the subdev with +the v4l2_device. + +You can also use the last argument of :c:func:`v4l2_i2c_new_subdev` to pass +an array of possible I2C addresses that it should probe. These probe addresses +are only used if the previous argument is 0. A non-zero argument means that you +know the exact i2c address so in that case no probing will take place. + +Both functions return ``NULL`` if something went wrong. + +Note that the chipid you pass to :c:func:`v4l2_i2c_new_subdev` is usually +the same as the module name. It allows you to specify a chip variant, e.g. +"saa7114" or "saa7115". In general though the i2c driver autodetects this. +The use of chipid is something that needs to be looked at more closely at a +later date. It differs between i2c drivers and as such can be confusing. +To see which chip variants are supported you can look in the i2c driver code +for the i2c_device_id table. This lists all the possibilities. + +There are one more helper function: + +:c:func:`v4l2_i2c_new_subdev_board` uses an :c:type:`i2c_board_info` struct +which is passed to the i2c driver and replaces the irq, platform_data and addr +arguments. + +If the subdev supports the s_config core ops, then that op is called with +the irq and platform_data arguments after the subdev was setup. + +The :c:func:`v4l2_i2c_new_subdev` function will call +:c:func:`v4l2_i2c_new_subdev_board`, internally filling a +:c:type:`i2c_board_info` structure using the ``client_type`` and the +``addr`` to fill it. + +Centrally managed subdev active state +------------------------------------- + +Traditionally V4L2 subdev drivers maintained internal state for the active +device configuration. This is often implemented as e.g. an array of struct +v4l2_mbus_framefmt, one entry for each pad, and similarly for crop and compose +rectangles. + +In addition to the active configuration, each subdev file handle has a struct +v4l2_subdev_state, managed by the V4L2 core, which contains the try +configuration. + +To simplify the subdev drivers the V4L2 subdev API now optionally supports a +centrally managed active configuration represented by +:c:type:`v4l2_subdev_state`. One instance of state, which contains the active +device configuration, is stored in the sub-device itself as part of +the :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` structure, while the core associates a try state to +each open file handle, to store the try configuration related to that file +handle. + +Sub-device drivers can opt-in and use state to manage their active configuration +by initializing the subdevice state with a call to v4l2_subdev_init_finalize() +before registering the sub-device. They must also call v4l2_subdev_cleanup() +to release all the allocated resources before unregistering the sub-device. +The core automatically allocates and initializes a state for each open file +handle to store the try configurations and frees it when closing the file +handle. + +V4L2 sub-device operations that use both the :ref:`ACTIVE and TRY formats +<v4l2-subdev-format-whence>` receive the correct state to operate on through +the 'state' parameter. The state must be locked and unlocked by the +caller by calling :c:func:`v4l2_subdev_lock_state()` and +:c:func:`v4l2_subdev_unlock_state()`. The caller can do so by calling the subdev +operation through the :c:func:`v4l2_subdev_call_state_active()` macro. + +Operations that do not receive a state parameter implicitly operate on the +subdevice active state, which drivers can exclusively access by +calling :c:func:`v4l2_subdev_lock_and_get_active_state()`. The sub-device active +state must equally be released by calling :c:func:`v4l2_subdev_unlock_state()`. + +Drivers must never manually access the state stored in the :c:type:`v4l2_subdev` +or in the file handle without going through the designated helpers. + +While the V4L2 core passes the correct try or active state to the subdevice +operations, many existing device drivers pass a NULL state when calling +operations with :c:func:`v4l2_subdev_call()`. This legacy construct causes +issues with subdevice drivers that let the V4L2 core manage the active state, +as they expect to receive the appropriate state as a parameter. To help the +conversion of subdevice drivers to a managed active state without having to +convert all callers at the same time, an additional wrapper layer has been +added to v4l2_subdev_call(), which handles the NULL case by getting and locking +the callee's active state with :c:func:`v4l2_subdev_lock_and_get_active_state()`, +and unlocking the state after the call. + +The whole subdev state is in reality split into three parts: the +v4l2_subdev_state, subdev controls and subdev driver's internal state. In the +future these parts should be combined into a single state. For the time being +we need a way to handle the locking for these parts. This can be accomplished +by sharing a lock. The v4l2_ctrl_handler already supports this via its 'lock' +pointer and the same model is used with states. The driver can do the following +before calling v4l2_subdev_init_finalize(): + +.. code-block:: c + + sd->ctrl_handler->lock = &priv->mutex; + sd->state_lock = &priv->mutex; + +This shares the driver's private mutex between the controls and the states. + +Streams, multiplexed media pads and internal routing +---------------------------------------------------- + +A subdevice driver can implement support for multiplexed streams by setting +the V4L2_SUBDEV_FL_STREAMS subdev flag and implementing support for +centrally managed subdev active state, routing and stream based +configuration. + +V4L2 sub-device functions and data structures +--------------------------------------------- + +.. kernel-doc:: include/media/v4l2-subdev.h diff --git a/Documentation/driver-api/media/v4l2-tuner.rst b/Documentation/driver-api/media/v4l2-tuner.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..e6caa3321566 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/driver-api/media/v4l2-tuner.rst @@ -0,0 +1,8 @@ +..
