Where is > that documented? I do not know if it is documented somewhere. But it seems natural to me that a sensor driver sets the type field to V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE in its .g_crop(). A sensor is a capture device, not an output or overlay device. And this ioctl is a query operation. OTOH I'm fine with this type checking in .g_crop() and it can help to discover bugs in user space apps. The VIDIOC_G_CROP documentation states that the type field needs to be set to the respective buffer type when querying, so the check in .g_crop() is perfectly valid. But then I need following patch to fix the observed issue: --- a/drivers/media/platform/soc_camera/soc_camera.c +++ b/drivers/media/platform/soc_camera/soc_camera.c @@ -902,6 +902,8 @@ static int soc_camera_s_crop(struct file *file, void *fh, dev_dbg(icd->pdev, "S_CROP(%ux%u@%u:%u)\n", rect->width, rect->height, rect->left, rect->top); + current_crop.type = a->type; + /* If get_crop fails, we'll let host and / or client drivers decide */ ret = ici->ops->get_crop(icd, ¤t_crop); What do you think? And the type field should be checked in .s_crop() anyway, I think. Thanks, Anatolij
