Sure, but it is not a lot of code, and I think it is somewhat confusing.

Just my opinion, though.

The idea is to compile the subdev userspace API code out when not needed. Not 
all media controller drivers need that API.

Question: why do we have CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L2_SUBDEV_API? I don't really see the
point of this and I would propose to remove this config option and instead
use CONFIG_MEDIA_CONTROLLER.

I don't see the use-case of having MEDIA_CONTROLLER defined but not
VIDEO_V4L2_SUBDEV_API.

Comments?

[RFC PATCH 0/3] Add VIDIOC_SUBDEV_QUERYCAP

2015-05-01 Thread Hans Verkuil
From: Hans Verkuil 

This patch series adds the VIDIOC_SUBDEV_QUERYCAP ioctl for v4l-subdev devices
as discussed during the ELC in San Jose and as discussed here:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg88009.html

It also adds the entity_id to v4l2_capability.
