- * ============================
- *
- * This document describes the Linux kernel media framework, its data structures,
- * functions and their usage.
- *

+ * The media controller userspace API is documented in DocBook format in
+ * Documentation/DocBook/media/v4l/media-controller.xml. This document focus
* on the kernel-side implementation of the media framework.
*
- *
- * Abstract media device model
- * ---------------------------
+ * * 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
* pad to a sink pad.
*
*
- * Media device
- * ------------
+ * * Media device:
*
- * A media device is represented by a struct media_device instance, defined in
+ * 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 media_device instance in a
+ * media device driver, usually by embedding the &media_device instance in a
* larger driver-specific structure.
*
* Drivers register media device instances by calling
+ * __media_device_register() via the macro media_device_register()
+ * and unregistered by calling
+ * media_device_unregister().
*
- * media_device_register(struct media_device *mdev);
- *
- * The caller is responsible for initializing the media_device structure before
- * registration. The following fields must be set:
- *
- * - dev must point to the parent device (usually a pci_dev, usb_interface or
- * platform_device instance).
- *
- * - model must be filled with the device model name as a NUL-terminated UTF-8
- * string. The device/model revision must not be stored in this field.
- *
- * The following fields are optional:
- *
- * - serial is a unique serial number stored as a NUL-terminated ASCII string.
- * The field is big enough to store a GUID in text form. If the hardware
- * doesn't provide a unique serial number this field must be left empty.
- *
- * - bus_info represents the location of the device in the system as a
- * NUL-terminated ASCII string. For PCI/PCIe devices bus_info must be set to
- * "PCI:" (or "PCIe:") followed by the value of pci_name(). For USB devices,
- * the usb_make_path() function must be used. This field is used by
- * applications to distinguish between otherwise identical devices that don't
- * provide a serial number.
- *
- * - hw_revision is the hardware device revision in a driver-specific format.
- * When possible the revision should be formatted with the KERNEL_VERSION
- * macro.
- *
- * - driver_version is formatted with the KERNEL_VERSION macro. The version
- * minor must be incremented when new features are added to the userspace API
- * without breaking binary compatibility. The version major must be
- * incremented when binary compatibility is broken.
- *
- * Upon successful registration a character device named media[0-9]+ is created.
- * The device major and minor numbers are dynamic. The model name is exported as
- * a sysfs attribute.
- *
- * Drivers unregister media device instances by calling
- *
- * media_device_unregister(struct media_device *mdev);
- *
- * Unregistering a media device that hasn't been registered is *NOT* safe.
- *
- *
- * Entities, pads and links
- * ------------------------
+ * * Entities, pads and links:
*
* - Entities
*
- * Entities are represented by a struct media_entity instance, defined in
+ * 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 a v4l2_subdev or video_device instance,
* although drivers can allocate entities directly.
*
* Drivers initialize entity pads by calling
- *
- * media_entity_pads_init(struct media_entity *entity, u16 num_pads,
- * struct media_pad *pads);
- *
- * If no pads are needed, drivers could directly fill entity->num_pads
- * with 0 and entity->pads with NULL or to call the above function that
- * will do the same.
- *
- * The media_entity name, type and flags fields should be initialized before
- * calling media_device_register_entity(). Entities embedded in higher-level
- * standard structures can have some of those fields set by the higher-level
- * framework.
- *
- * As the number of pads is known in advance, the pads array is not allocated
- * dynamically but is managed by the entity driver. Most drivers will embed the
- * pads array in a driver-specific structure, avoiding dynamic allocation.
- *
- * Drivers must set the direction of every pad in the pads array before calling
- * media_entity_pads_init. The function will initialize the other pads fields.
- *
- * Unlike the number of pads, the total number of links isn't always known in
- * advance by the entity driver. As an initial estimate, media_entity_pads_init
- * pre-allocates a number of links equal to the number of pads. The links array
- * will be reallocated if it grows beyond the initial estimate.
+ * media_entity_pads_init().
*
* Drivers register entities with a media device by calling
+ * media_device_register_entity()
+ * and unregistred by calling
+ * media_device_unregister_entity().
*
- * media_device_register_entity(struct media_device *mdev,
- * struct media_entity *entity);
+ * - Interfaces
*
- * Entities are identified by a unique positive integer ID. Drivers can provide an
- * ID by filling the media_entity id field prior to registration, or request the
- * media controller framework to assign an ID automatically. Drivers that provide
- * IDs manually must ensure that all IDs are unique. IDs are not guaranteed to be
- * contiguous even when they are all assigned automatically by the framework.
+ * 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 unregister entities by calling
- *
- * media_device_unregister_entity(struct media_entity *entity);
- *
- * Unregistering an entity will not change the IDs of the other entities, and the
- * ID will never be reused for a newly registered entity.
- *
- * When a media device is unregistered, all its entities are unregistered
- * automatically. No manual entities unregistration is then required.
- *
- * Drivers free resources associated with an entity by calling
- *
- * media_entity_cleanup(struct media_entity *entity);
- *
- * This function must be called during the cleanup phase after unregistering the
- * entity. Note that the media_entity instance itself must be freed explicitly by
- * the driver if required.
- *
- * Entities have flags that describe the entity capabilities and state.
- *
- * MEDIA_ENT_FL_DEFAULT indicates the default entity for a given type.
- * This can be used to report the default audio and video devices or the
- * default camera sensor.
- *
- * Logical entity groups can be defined by setting the group ID of all member
- * entities to the same non-zero value. An entity group serves no purpose in the
- * kernel, but is reported to userspace during entities enumeration.
- *
- * Media device drivers should define groups if several entities are logically
- * bound together. Example usages include reporting
- *
- * - ALSA, VBI and video nodes that carry the same media stream
- * - lens and flash controllers associated with a sensor
+ * Drivers initialize and create device node interfaces by calling
+ * media_devnode_create()
+ * and remove them by calling:
+ * media_devnode_remove().
*
* - Pads
*
- * Pads are represented by a struct media_pad instance, defined in
+ * 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 media_pad structure, making the media_pad
- * pointer the canonical way to store and pass link references.
+ * Pads are identified by their entity and their 0-based index in the pads
+ * array.
+ * Both information are stored in the &media_pad structure, making the
+ * &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.
+ * %MEDIA_PAD_FL_SINK indicates that the pad supports sinking data.
+ * %MEDIA_PAD_FL_SOURCE indicates that the pad supports sourcing data.
*
- * One and only one of MEDIA_PAD_FL_SINK and MEDIA_PAD_FL_SOURCE must be set for
- * each pad.
+ * NOTE: One and only one of %MEDIA_PAD_FL_SINK and %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. Each entity stores all links originating at or
- * targeting any of its pads in a links array. A given link is thus stored
- * twice, once in the source entity and once in the target entity. The array is
- * pre-allocated and grows dynamically as needed.
+ * 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:
*
- * Drivers create links by calling
+ * 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.
*
- * media_create_pad_link(struct media_entity *source, u16 source_pad,
- * struct media_entity *sink, u16 sink_pad,
- * u32 flags);
+ * Drivers create pad to pad links by calling:
+ * media_create_pad_link() and remove with media_entity_remove_links().
*
- * An entry in the link array of each entity is allocated and stores pointers
- * to source and sink pads.
+ * 2. interface to entity links:
*
- * Links have flags that describe the link capabilities and state.
+ * Associate one interface to a Link.
*
- * MEDIA_LNK_FL_ENABLED indicates that the link is enabled and can be used
- * to transfer media data. When two or more links target a sink pad, only
- * one of them can be enabled at a time.
- * MEDIA_LNK_FL_IMMUTABLE indicates that the link enabled state can't be
- * modified at runtime. If MEDIA_LNK_FL_IMMUTABLE is set, then
- * MEDIA_LNK_FL_ENABLED must also be set since an immutable link is always
- * enabled.
+ * Drivers create interface to entity links by calling:
+ * media_create_intf_link() and remove with media_remove_intf_links().
*
+ * NOTE:
*
- * Graph traversal
- * ---------------
+ * 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 media_create_pad_link() and
+ * 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.
+ * 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.
*
* struct media_entity *entity;
*
* currently defined as 16.
*
* Drivers initiate a graph traversal by calling
- *
- * media_entity_graph_walk_start(struct media_entity_graph *graph,
- * struct media_entity *entity);
+ * media_entity_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
- *
- * media_entity_graph_walk_next(struct media_entity_graph *graph);
+ * media_entity_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.
+ * 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
+ * media_entity_find_link() and media_entity_remote_pad()
*
- * media_entity_find_link(struct media_pad *source,
- * struct media_pad *sink);
- *
- * media_entity_remote_pad(struct media_pad *pad);
- *
- * Refer to the kerneldoc documentation for more information.
- *
- *
- * 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
- * media_entity structure includes a use_count field that media drivers can use to
- * track the number of users of every entity for power management needs.
+ * Use count and power handling:
*
- * The 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 media device graph_mutex
- * lock.
+ * Due to the wide differences between drivers regarding power management
+ * needs, the media controller does not implement power management. However,
+ * the &media_entity structure includes a use_count field that media drivers
+ * can use to track the number of users of every entity for power management
+ * needs.
*
+ * The &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
+ * &media_device.@graph_mutex lock.
*
- * Links setup
- * -----------
+ * Links setup:
*
* Link properties can be modified at runtime by calling
+ * media_entity_setup_link()
*
- * media_entity_setup_link(struct media_link *link, u32 flags);
- *
- * The flags argument contains the requested new link flags.
- *
- * The only configurable property is the ENABLED link flag to enable/disable a
- * link. Links marked with the IMMUTABLE link flag can not be enabled or disabled.
- *
- * When a link is enabled or disabled, the media framework calls the
- * link_setup operation for the two entities at the source and sink of the link,
- * in that order. If the second link_setup call fails, another link_setup call is
- * made on the first entity to restore the original link flags.
- *
- * Media device drivers can be notified of link setup operations by setting the
- * media_device::link_notify pointer to a callback function. If provided, the
- * notification callback will be called before enabling and after disabling
- * links.
- *
- * Entity drivers must implement the link_setup operation if any of their links
- * is non-immutable. The operation must either configure the hardware or store
- * the configuration information to be applied later.
- *
- * Link configuration must not have any side effect on other links. If an enabled
- * link at a sink pad prevents another link at the same pad from being enabled,
- * the link_setup operation must return -EBUSY and can't implicitly disable the
- * first enabled link.
- *
- *
- * Pipelines and media streams
- * ---------------------------
+ * Pipelines and media streams:
*
* When starting streaming, drivers must notify all entities in the pipeline to
* prevent link states from being modified during streaming by calling
- *
- * media_entity_pipeline_start(struct media_entity *entity,
- * struct media_pipeline *pipe);
+ * media_entity_pipeline_start().
*
* The function will mark all entities connected to the given entity through
* enabled links, either directly or indirectly, as streaming.
*
- * The media_pipeline instance pointed to by the pipe argument will be stored in
- * every entity in the pipeline. Drivers should embed the media_pipeline structure
- * in higher-level pipeline structures and can then access the pipeline through
- * the media_entity pipe field.
+ * The &media_pipeline instance pointed to by the pipe argument will be stored
+ * in every entity in the pipeline. Drivers should embed the &media_pipeline
+ * structure in higher-level pipeline structures and can then access the
+ * pipeline through the &media_entity pipe field.
*
- * Calls to media_entity_pipeline_start() can be nested. The pipeline pointer must
- * be identical for all nested calls to the function.
+ * Calls to media_entity_pipeline_start() can be nested. The pipeline pointer
+ * must be identical for all nested calls to the function.
*
* media_entity_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
- *
- * media_entity_pipeline_stop(struct media_entity *entity);
+ * media_entity_pipeline_stop().
*
* If multiple calls to media_entity_pipeline_start() have been made the same
- * number of media_entity_pipeline_stop() calls are required to stop streaming. The
- * media_entity pipe field is reset to NULL on the last nested stop call.
+ * number of media_entity_pipeline_stop() calls are required to stop streaming.
+ * The &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.
+ * 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:
*
* Link validation is performed by media_entity_pipeline_start() for any
* entity which has sink pads in the pipeline. The
- * media_entity::link_validate() callback is used for that purpose. In
- * link_validate() callback, entity driver should check that the properties of
+ * &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.
