Subject: [PATCH v3 03/29] media: v4l2-subdev: Prepare for changes in getting frame descriptors
Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2026 15:14:25 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260824121451.3348583-4-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260824121451.3348583-1-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com>
Introduce v4l2_subdev_alloc_frame_desc() and v4l2_subdev_free_frame_desc()
to both facilitate implementing drivers that need frame descriptors as
well as prepare for having a larger number of frame descriptors.
If the remote sub-device does not support frame descriptors,
v4l2_subdev_get_frame_desc() creates one (with a single entry)
opportunistically, thus avoiding the need to add frame descriptor support
to sensor drivers the device for which only generates a single stream, or
managing the situation on the caller side.
