| * Documentation: remove __dev* attributes.Greg Kroah-Hartman2013-01-031-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit from the kernel documentation. Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

* [media] v4l2-dev: make it possible to skip locking for selected ioctlsHans Verkuil2012-05-141-3/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using the V4L2 core lock is a very robust method that is usually very good at doing the right thing. But some drivers, particularly USB drivers, may want to prevent the core from taking the lock for specific ioctls, particularly buffer queuing ioctls. The reason is that certain commands like S_CTRL can take a long time to process over USB and all the time the core has the lock, preventing VIDIOC_DQBUF from proceeding, even though a frame may be ready in the queue. This introduces unwanted latency. Since the buffer queuing commands often have their own internal lock it is often not necessary to take the core lock. Drivers can now say that they don't want the core to take the lock for specific ioctls. As it is a specific opt-out it makes it clear to the reviewer that those ioctls will need more care when reviewing.

* [media] v4l: Add a media_device pointer to the v4l2_device structureLaurent Pinchart2011-03-221-5/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pointer will later be used to register/unregister media entities when registering/unregistering a v4l2_subdev or a video_device. With the introduction of media devices, device drivers need to store a pointer to a driver-specific structure in the device's drvdata. v4l2_device can't claim ownership of the drvdata anymore. To maintain compatibility with drivers that rely on v4l2_device storing a pointer to itself in the device's drvdata, v4l2_device_register() will keep doing so if the drvdata is NULL.

* V4L/DVB: v4l2: add core serialization lockHans Verkuil2010-10-211-0/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Drivers can optionally set a pointer to a mutex in struct video_device. The core will use that to lock before calling open, read, write, unlocked_ioctl, poll, mmap or release. Updated the documentation as well and ensure that v4l2-event knows about the lock: it will unlock it before doing a blocking wait on an event and relock it afterwards. Ensure that the 'video_is_registered' check is done when the lock is held: a typical disconnect will take the lock as well before unregistering the device nodes, so to prevent race conditions the video_is_registered check should also be done with the lock held.
