Antti Palosaari 1cbabf9c75 [media] af9035: remove one config parameter

Hans-Frieder Vogt 47eafa5427 [media] af9033: implement ber and ucb functions
af9033: implement read_ber and read_ucblocks functions. Version 2 of patch that
reflects my findings on the behaviour of abort_cnt, err_cnt and bit_cnt:

- bit_cnt is always 0x2710 (10000)
- abort_cnt is between 0 and 0x2710
- err_cnt is between 0 and 640000 (= 0x2710 * 8 * 8)

in the current implementation BER is calculated as the number of bit errors per
processed bits, ignoring those bits that are already discarded and counted in
abort_cnt, i.e. UCBLOCKS.

Hans de Goede 6a6c70b8f2 [media] gspca_pac7311: Remove vflip control
Enabling vflip leads to a much better image, with vflip disabled the
image looks washed out as if there is a too high brightness setting.

Since we don't know how to lower the brightness setting when not
vflipping, simply always vflip and tell userspace to flip the image back,
resulting in a much better (less washed out) image.

Since the image is now no longer too bright, also modify the luminance
level the auto-gain algorithm aims for.

changed. Note that before this patch-set the quality was never changed
either due to the bugs in the quality handling fixed in previous patches in

Hans de Goede 83fb2e2eaa [media] gspca_zc3xx: Fix JPEG quality setting code
The current code is using bits 0-1 of register 8 of the zc3xx controller
to set the JPEG quality, but the correct bits are bits 1-2. Bit 0 selects
between truncation or rounding in the quantization phase of the compression,
since rounding generally gives better results it should thus always be 1.

This patch also corrects the quality percentages which belong to the 4
different settings.

Last this patch removes the different reg 8 defaults depending on the sensor
type. Some of them where going for a default quality setting of 50%, which
generally is not necessary in any way and results in poor image quality.
75% is a good default to use for all scenarios.

Hans Verkuil 254902b01d [media] gspca: Fix locking issues related to suspend/resume
There are two bugs here: first the calls to stop0 (in gspca_suspend) and
gspca_init_transfer (in gspca_resume) need to be called with the usb_lock held.
That's true for the other places they are called and it is what subdrivers
expect. Quite a few will unlock the usb_lock in stop0 while waiting for a
worker thread to finish, and if usb_lock isn't held then that can cause a
kernel oops.

The other problem is that a worker thread needs to detect that it has to
halt due to a suspend. Otherwise it will just go on looping. So add tests
against gspca_dev->frozen in the worker threads that need it.

Hdg, 2 minor changes:
1) The finepix device is ok with stopping reading a frame halfway through,
   so add frozen checks in all places where we also check if we're still
   streaming
2) Use gspca_dev->dev instead of gspca_dev->present to check for disconnect
   in all touched drivers. I plan to do this everywhere in the future, and
   most relevant lines in the touched drivers are already modified by this
   patch.

Hans Verkuil 5126f2590b [media] v4l2-dev: add flag to have the core lock all file operations
This used to be the default if the lock pointer was set, but now that lock is by
default only used for ioctl serialization. Those drivers that already used
core locking have this flag set explicitly, except for some drivers where
it was obvious that there was no need to serialize any file operations other
than ioctl.

The drivers that didn't need this flag were:

drivers/media/radio/dsbr100.c
drivers/media/radio/radio-isa.c
drivers/media/radio/radio-keene.c
drivers/media/radio/radio-miropcm20.c
drivers/media/radio/radio-mr800.c
drivers/media/radio/radio-tea5764.c
drivers/media/radio/radio-timb.c
drivers/media/video/vivi.c
sound/i2c/other/tea575x-tuner.c

The other drivers that use core locking and where it was not immediately
obvious that this flag wasn't needed were changed so that the flag is set
together with a comment that that driver needs work to avoid having to
set that flag. This will often involve taking the core lock in the fops
themselves.

Eventually this flag should go and it should not be used in new drivers.

There are a few reasons why we want to avoid core locking of non-ioctl
fops: in the case of mmap this can lead to a deadlock in rare situations
since when mmap is called the mmap_sem is held and it is possible for
other parts of the code to take that lock as well (copy_from_user()/copy_to_user()
perform a down_read(&mm->mmap_sem) when a page fault occurs).

It is very unlikely that that happens since the core lock serializes all
fops, but the kernel warns about it if lock validation is turned on.

For poll it is also undesirable to take the core lock as that can introduce
increased latency. The same is true for read/write.

While it was possible to make flags or something to turn on/off taking the
core lock for each file operation, in practice it is much simpler to just
not take it at all except for ioctl and leave it to the driver to take the
lock. There are only a handful fops compared to the zillion ioctls we have.

I also wanted to make it obvious which drivers still take the lock for all
fops, so that's why I chose to have drivers set it explicitly.

Hans Verkuil 6539799599 [media] tea575x-tuner: mark VIDIOC_S_HW_FREQ_SEEK as an invalid ioctl
The tea575x-tuner framework can support the VIDIOC_S_HW_FREQ_SEEK for only
some of the tea575x-based boards. Mark this ioctl as invalid if the board
doesn't support it.

This fixes an issue with S_HW_FREQ_SEEK in combination with priority handling:
since the priority check is done first it could return -EBUSY, even though
calling the S_HW_FREQ_SEEK ioctl would return -ENOTTY. It should always return
ENOTTY in such a case.

Hans Verkuil 48ea0be060 [media] v4l2-dev/ioctl: determine the valid ioctls upfront
Rather than testing whether an ioctl is implemented in the driver or not
every time the ioctl is called, do it upfront when the device is registered.

This also allows a driver to disable certain ioctls based on the capabilities
of the detected board, something you can't do today without creating separate
v4l2_ioctl_ops structs for each new variation.

For the most part it is pretty straightforward, but for control ioctls a flag
is needed since it is possible that you have per-filehandle controls, and that
can't be determined upfront of course.

Hans Verkuil 8ab75e3ecd [media] v4l2-dev: make it possible to skip locking for selected ioctls
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.
