* [media] DocBook: Move all media docbook stuff into its own directoryMauro Carvalho Chehab2011-07-271-93/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch addresses several issues pointed by Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> at changeset ece722c: - In the generated index.html file, "media" is listed first, but it should be listed in alphabetical order, not first. - The generated files are (hidden) in .tmpmedia/ - The link from the top-level index.html file to "media" is to media/index.html, but the file is actually in .tmpmedia/media/index.html - Please build docs with and without using "O=builddir" and test that. - Would it be possible for media to have its own Makefile instead of merging into this one? Due to the way cleandocs target works, I had to rename the media DocBook to media_api, otherwise cleandocs would remove the /media directory.

* [media] media: Pipelines and media streamsLaurent Pinchart2011-03-221-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Drivers often need to associate pipeline objects to entities, and to take stream state into account when configuring entities and links. The pipeline API helps drivers manage that information. When starting streaming, drivers call media_entity_pipeline_start(). The function marks all entities connected to the given entity through enabled links, either directly or indirectly, as streaming. Similarly, when stopping the stream, drivers call media_entity_pipeline_stop(). The media_entity_pipeline_start() function takes a pointer to a media pipeline and stores it in every entity in the graph. Drivers should embed the media_pipeline structure in higher-level pipeline structures and can then access the pipeline through the media_entity structure. Link configuration will fail with -EBUSY by default if either end of the link is a streaming entity, unless the link is marked with the MEDIA_LNK_FL_DYNAMIC flag.

* [media] media: Links setupLaurent Pinchart2011-03-221-0/+90
Create the following ioctl and implement it at the media device level to setup links. - MEDIA_IOC_SETUP_LINK: Modify the properties of a given link The only property that can currently be modified is the ENABLED link flag to enable/disable a link. Links marked with the IMMUTABLE link flag can not be enabled or disabled. Enabling or disabling a link has effects on entities' use count. Those changes are automatically propagated through the graph.
