2007-10-09V4L/DVB (6255): Convert vivi to use videobuf-vmallocMauro Carvalho Chehab
This patch removes the usage of videobuf-dma-sg from vivi driver, using instead videobuf-vmalloc. This way, vivi will be useful for testing the newer method. Reverting this patch won't hurt vivi, since both methods work fine. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>

2007-07-18V4L/DVB (5811): Use mutex instead of semaphore in Virtual Video driverMatthias Kaehlcke
The Virtual Video driver uses a semaphore as mutex. Use the mutex API instead of the (binary) semaphore. Signed-off-by: Matthias Kaehlcke <matthias.kaehlcke@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>
2007-07-18V4L/DVB (5727): Remove VIVI_SCATTERMauro Carvalho Chehab
vivi scatter method were used as a proof of concept. It can be safelly removed from mainstream, since the current method is faster and better than the previous solution. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>
2007-07-17Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by defaultRafael J. Wysocki
Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't care for the freezing of tasks at all. It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is done in this patch. The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable() function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional) change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to describe the freezing of tasks more accurately. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fixes] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2007-02-21V4L/DVB (5249): Fix compiler warning in vivi.cMarcel Siegert
The result of copy_to_user was not used, so the compiler complained now a warning will be issued if copy_to_user fails. Signed-off-by: Marcel Siegert <mws@linuxtv.org> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>
2007-02-21V4L/DVB (5147): Make vivi driver to use vmalloced pointersMauro Carvalho Chehab
Before this patch, vivi were simulating a scatter gather DMA transfer. While this is academic, showing how stuff really works on a real PCI device, this means a non-optimized code. There are only two memory models that vivi implements: 1) kernel alloced memory. This is also used by read() method. On this case, a vmalloc32 buffer is allocated at kernel; 2) userspace allocated memory. This is used by most userspace apps. video-buf will store this pointer. a simple copy_to_user is enough to transfer data. The third memory model scenario supported by video-buf is overlay mode. This model is not implemented on vivi and unlikely to be implemented on newer drivers, since now, most userspace apps do some post-processing (like de-interlacing). After this patch, some cleanups may be done at video-buf.c to avoid allocating pages, when the driver doesn't need a PCI buffer. This is the case of vivi and usb drivers.

2007-02-21V4L/DVB (5074): Some fixes at stream waitqueue on viviMauro Carvalho Chehab
There are several potential troubles on vivi waitqueue code: - Watchdog timer should be reset at every received frame; - Watchdog timer should be reset at the beginning of vivi_thread(); - Checks for errors when creating a newer thread with kernel_thread(); - Wake up vivi_thread() after creating it.

2007-02-21V4L/DVB (5073): Fix OOPS on some waitqueue conditionsMauro Carvalho Chehab
If for some reason vivi_thread() fails, vivi will suffer an OOPS at thread stop code, since waitqueue wouldn't be properly initializated. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>
2007-02-12[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 4Arjan van de Ven
Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources.

2007-01-15V4L/DVB (5020): Fix: disable interrupts while at KM_BOUNCE_READMauro Carvalho Chehab
vivi.c uses the KM_BOUNCE_READ with local interrupts enabled. This means that if a disk interrupt occurs while vivi.c is using this fixmap slot, the vivi.c driver will, upon return from that interrupt, find that the fixmap slot now points at a different physical page. The net result will probably be rare corruption of disk file contents, because viv.c will now be altering the page which the disk code was recently using. Thanks to Andrew Morton for pointing this.

2006-12-10V4L/DVB (4861): Remove the need of a STD array for drivers using video_ioctl2Mauro Carvalho Chehab
video_ioctl2 will auto-generate standard entries at ENUM_FMT. Also, now, a driver may return a subset of the video array at the return, to be stored as the current_norm. For example, a driver may ask for V4L2_STD_PAL. At return, driver may change it to V4L2_STD_PAL_B. This way, a futher call to G_STD will return the exact detected video std.

2006-12-07[PATCH] Add include/linux/freezer.h and move definitions from sched.hNigel Cunningham

2006-09-26V4L/DVB (4627): Vivi crashes with mplayerSascha Hauer

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.

The Virtual Video Device Driver (aka vivi) is a device that can be used to: 1) test core v4l functionalities; 2) be a prototype for newer development. Vivi were developed using the best practices for v4l driver. When loaded, it provides a video device that generates a standard color bar, with a timestamp placed at top left corner.
