Hi all, Here's my first monotonic timestamps patch (RFC) series. It's quite experimental, not even compile tested, which doesn't matter much at this point anyway.
What the patches do is that they 1. Add new buffer flags for timestamp type, and a mask, 2. convert all the drivers to use monotonic timestamps and 3. tell that all drivers are using monotonic timestamps. The assumption is that all drivers will use monotonic timestamps, especially the timestamp type is set in videobuf(2) in drivers that use it. This could be changed later on if we wish to make it selectable; in this case videobuf2 would need to be told, and the helper function v4l2_get_timestamp() would need to be put to videobuf2 instead. This depends on my previous patch "v4l: Correct definition of v4l2_buffer.flags related to cache management". Comments and questions are very welcome!
