  • 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.

  • The cx2341x mpeg encoder module is used by cx88-blackbird, pvrusb2 and
    the external ivtv driver. This patch allows for cx2341x to be selected without
    having to also select cx88-blackbird. This will be needed to build the external
    ivtv driver or the standalone pvrusb2 driver against kernel 2.6.18

  • V4L1 API is depreciated and should be removed soon from kernel. This patch
    adds two new options, one to disable V4L1 drivers, and another to disable
    V4L1 compat module. This way, it would be easy to check what still depends
    on V4L1 stuff, allowing also to test if app works fine with V4L2 only support.

  • Because of historic reasons, there are two separate directories with
    V4L stuff. Most drivers are located at driver/media/video. However, some
    code for USB Webcams were inserted under drivers/usb/media.

    This makes difficult for module authors to know were things should be.
    Also, makes Kconfig menu confusing for normal users.

    This patch moves all V4L content under drivers/usb/media to
    drivers/media/video, and fixes Kconfig/Makefile entries.

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
