Michael Schimek requested the addition of inverted alpha framebuffer
caps/flags to support such hardware.
'Normal' alpha uses this formula to mix the framebuffer and video:
output = fb pixel * fb alpha + video pixel * (1 - fb alpha)
and the 'inverted' alpha uses this formula:
output = fb pixel * (1 - fb alpha) + video pixel * fb alphaSigned-off-by: Hans Verkuil

Reverted the change to struct v4l2_pix_format. I completely missed that
this struct was used by existing ioctls so that changing it broke the ABI.
I will have to think of another way of setting the top/left coordinates
but for now this change is reverted to preserve compatibility.Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil

VIDIOC_G_CHIP_IDENT improves debugging of card problems: it can be
used to detect which chips are on the board and based on that information
selected register dumps can be made, making it easy to debug complicated
media chips containing tens or hundreds of registers.
This ioctl replaces the internal VIDIOC_INT_G_CHIP_IDENT ioctl.Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil

videodev2.h contains just the V4L2 API structs and defines.
By allowing this header file to be dual GPL/BSD will enable sharing
userspace apps between Linux and *BSD systems. It will also allow developing
newer BSD licensed drivers that can be shared on Linux and *BSD.
It should be noticed that most of the current V4L drivers, and v4l core
itself are GPL only. This won't be changed by this patch.Signed-off-by: Michael H. Schimek

The direct register access ioctls were defined as kernel internal only,
but they are very useful for debugging hardware from userspace and are
used as such. Officially export them.VIDIOC_INT_[SG]_REGISTER is renamed to VIDIOC_DBG_[SG]_REGISTER
Definition of ioctl and struct v4l2_register is moved from v4l2-common.h
to videodev2.h.Types used in struct v4l2_register are changed to the userspace
exportable versions (u32 -> __u32, etc).Use of VIDIOC_DBG_S_REGISTER requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN permission, so move
the check into the video_ioctl2() dispatcher so it doesn't need to be
duplicated in each driver's call-back function. CAP_SYS_ADMIN check is
added to pvrusb2 (which doesn't use video_ioctl2).Signed-off-by: Trent Piepho

There's a problem, pointed by Meelis Roos , that, on ppc32 arch,
with some gcc versions (noticed with prerelease 4.1.2 20061115), compilation
fails, due the lack of __ucmpdi2 to do the required 64-bit comparision.

VIDIOC_ENUM_FRAMESIZES and VIDIOC_ENUM_FRAMEINTERVALS ioctls are meant

V4L1 support should be disabled when no CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT is defined,
to allow checking for broken V4L2 ports. This is very important during the
migration phase for V4L2 API.
However, userspace apps should be capable of using both APIs, since they need
to test at runtime, via VIDIOCGCAP ioctl, if V4L1 is supported. So, when
__KERNEL__ is not defined, those ioctls and corresponding structs should be
visible.
This patch also removes the obsolete defines HAVE_V4L1 and HAVE_V4L2, that
where causing some confusion, and were replaced by CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT
and CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L2.Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab

linux/videodev2.h uses types such as __u8 but it fails to include
. Within the kernel, that's not a problem because
already includes . However, there are
user apps that try to include videodev2.h (e.g., ekiga) and at least
on ia64, it causes compilation failures since doesn't
get included for any other reason, leaving __u8 etc. undefined. The

Add a new audio mode V4L2_TUNER_MODE_LANG1_LANG2 (used by VIDIOC_G/S_TUNER).
This mode allows the user to select both languages of a bilingual transmission,
one language on the left, one on the right audio channel. If there is no
bilingual transmission, or it is not supported, then this mode should act like
V4L2_TUNER_MODE_STEREO.
This mode is introduced for PVR-like drivers where it is useful to be able to
record both languages of a bilingual broadcast.Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil
