Mauro Carvalho Chehab b6fce850d9 [media] v4l2-event.h: fix comments and add to DocBook
The comments there are good enough for DocBook, however they're
using a wrong format. Fix and add to device-drivers.xml.

Arun Kumar K 3cbe6e5bca [media] v4l: Add source change event
This event indicates that the video device has encountered
a source parameter change during runtime. This can typically be a
resolution change detected by a video decoder OR a format change
detected by an input connector.

This needs to be nofified to the userspace and the application may
be expected to reallocate buffers before proceeding. The application
can subscribe to events on a specific pad or input port which
it is interested in.

Sylwester Nawrocki 4f4d14b70a [media] V4L: Add v4l2_event_subdev_unsubscribe() helper function
Add a v4l2 core helper function that can be used as the subdev
.unsubscribe_event handler. This allows to eliminate some
boilerplate from drivers that are only handling the control events.

Hans Verkuil 85f5fe3962 [media] v4l2: make vidioc_(un)subscribe_event const
Write-only ioctls should have a const argument in the ioctl op.
Do this conversion for vidioc_(un)subscribe_event.
Adding const for write-only ioctls was decided during the 2012 Media Workshop.

Hans Verkuil 6e6d76cdc5 [media] v4l2-event: fix regression with initial event handling
If the V4L2_EVENT_SUB_FL_SEND_INITIAL was set, then the application expects
to receive an initial event of the initial value of the control.

However, commit c53c254933 that added the new
v4l2_subscribed_event_ops introduced a regression: while the code still queued
that initial event the __v4l2_event_queue_fh() function was modified to ignore
such requests if sev->elems was 0 (meaning that the event subscription wasn't
finished yet).

And sev->elems was only set to a non-zero value after the add operation
returned.

This patch fixes this by passing the elems value to the add function. Then the
add function can set it before queuing the initial event.

Hans de Goede c53c254933 [media] v4l2-event: Add v4l2_subscribed_event_ops
Just like with ctrl events, drivers may want to get called back on
listener add / remove for other event types too. Rather then special
casing all of this in subscribe / unsubscribe event it is better to
use ops for this.

Hans Verkuil 2151bdc887 [media] v4l2-event: add optional merge and replace callbacks
When the event queue for a subscribed event is full, then the oldest
event is dropped. It would be nice if the contents of that oldest
event could be merged with the next-oldest. That way no information is
lost, only intermediate steps are lost.

This patch adds optional replace() (called when only one kevent was allocated)
and merge() (called when more than one kevent was allocated) callbacks that
will be called to do this job.

These two callbacks are implemented for the V4L2_EVENT_CTRL event.

Hans Verkuil f1e393de38 [media] v4l2-event/ctrls/fh: allocate events per fh and per type instead of just per-fh
The driver had to decide how many events to allocate when the v4l2_fh struct
was created. It was possible to add more events afterwards, but there was no
way to ensure that you wouldn't miss important events if the event queue
would fill up for that filehandle.

In addition, once there were no more free events, any new events were simply
dropped on the floor.

For the control event in particular this made life very difficult since
control status/value changes could just be missed if the number of allocated
events and the speed at which the application read events was too low to keep
up with the number of generated events. The application would have no idea
what the latest state was for a control since it could have missed the latest
control change.

So this patch makes some major changes in how events are allocated. Instead
of allocating events per-filehandle they are now allocated when subscribing an
event. So for that particular event type N events (determined by the driver)
are allocated. Those events are reserved for that particular event type.
This ensures that you will not miss events for a particular type altogether.

In addition, if there are N events in use and a new event is raised, then
the oldest event is dropped and the new one is added. So the latest event
is always available.

This can be further improved by adding the ability to merge the state of
two events together, ensuring that no data is lost at all. This will be
added in the next patch.

This also makes it possible to allow the user to determine the number of
events that will be allocated. This is not implemented at the moment, but
would be trivial.

Hans Verkuil 77068d36d8 [media] v4l2-ctrls/event: remove struct v4l2_ctrl_fh, instead use v4l2_subscribed_event
The v4l2_ctrl_fh struct connected v4l2_ctrl with v4l2_fh so the control
would know which filehandles subscribed to it. However, it is much easier
to use struct v4l2_subscribed_event directly for that and get rid of that
intermediate struct.

Hans Verkuil 523f46d6ab [media] v4l2-events/fh: merge v4l2_events into v4l2_fh
Drivers that supported events used to be rare, but now that controls can also
raise events this will become much more common since almost all drivers have
controls.

This means that keeping struct v4l2_events as a separate struct make no more
sense. Merging it into struct v4l2_fh simplifies things substantially as it
is now an integral part of the filehandle struct.
