2016-07-28doc-rst: Remove the media docbookMauro Carvalho Chehab
Now that all media documentation was converted to Sphinx, we should get rid of the old DocBook one, as we don't want people to submit patches against the old stuff.

2015-04-03[media] DocBook media: fix VIDIOC_CROPCAP type descriptionHans Verkuil
The type field of VIDIOC_CROPCAP does not allow the MPLANE variants, just as all the other crop/selection related ioctls. Fix the description of CROPCAP and G_CROP and make the text describing this consistent for all selection ioctls.

2014-01-07[media] videodev2: Set vb2_rect's width and height as unsignedRicardo Ribalda
As discussed on the media summit 2013, there is no reason for the width and height to be signed. Therefore this patch is an attempt to convert those fields from __s32 to __u32.

2012-09-26[media] DocBook: Mark CROPCAP as optional instead of as compulsoryHans Verkuil
While the documentation says that VIDIOC_CROPCAP is compulsory for all video capture and output devices, in practice VIDIOC_CROPCAP is only implemented for devices that can do cropping and/or scaling. Update the documentation to no longer require VIDIOC_CROPCAP if the driver does not support cropping or scaling or non-square pixels.

2012-05-14[media] v4l2: use __u32 rather than enums in ioctl() structsSakari Ailus
V4L2 uses the enum type in IOCTL arguments in IOCTLs that were defined until the use of enum was considered less than ideal. Recently Rémi Denis-Courmont brought up the issue by proposing a patch to convert the enums to unsigned: <URL:http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg46167.html> This sparked a long discussion where another solution to the issue was proposed: two sets of IOCTL structures, one with __u32 and the other with enums, and conversion code between the two: <URL:http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg47168.html> Both approaches implement a complete solution that resolves the problem. The first one is simple but requires assuming enums and __u32 are the same in size (so we won't break the ABI) while the second one is more complex and less clean but does not require making that assumption. The issue boils down to whether enums are fundamentally different from __u32 or not, and can the former be substituted by the latter. During the discussion it was concluded that the __u32 has the same size as enums on all archs Linux is supported: it has not been shown that replacing those enums in IOCTL arguments would break neither source or binary compatibility. If no such reason is found, just replacing the enums with __u32s is the way to go. This is what this patch does. This patch is slightly different from Remi's first RFC (link above): it uses __u32 instead of unsigned and also changes the arguments of VIDIOC_G_PRIORITY and VIDIOC_S_PRIORITY.

2011-07-27[media] DocBook: Use the generic ioctl error codes for all V4L ioctl'sMauro Carvalho Chehab
Be sure that all VIDIOC_* ioctl are using the return error macro, and aren't specifying generic error codes internally. Acked-by: Hans Verkuil <hans.verkuil@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>
2011-07-27[media] DocBook: Move all media docbook stuff into its own directoryMauro Carvalho Chehab
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.
