[PATCH v6 1/3] media: Media Device Allocator API

Shuah Khan
2016-11-30T22:01:26Z

Media Device Allocator API to allows multiple drivers share a media device.
Using this API, drivers can allocate a media device with the shared struct
device as the key. Once the media device is allocated by a driver, other
drivers can get a reference to it. The media device is released when all
the references are released.

Changes to patch 0001 since v5: (comments from Mauro and Sakari)
- Removed struct device from media_device_instance. mdev.dev is used instead.
- Added documentation.

+Media Controller Device Allocator API
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+When media device belongs to more than one driver, the shared media device
+is allocated with the shared struct device as the key for look ups.
+
+Shared media device should stay in registered state until the last driver
+unregisters it. In addition, media device should be released when all the
+references are released. Each driver gets a reference to the media device
+during probe, when it allocates the media device. If media device is already
+allocated, allocate API bumps up the refcount and return the existing media
+device. Driver puts the reference back from its disconnect routine when it
+calls :c:func:`media_device_delete()`.
+
+Media device is unregistered and cleaned up from the kref put handler to
+ensure that the media device stays in registered state until the last driver
+unregisters the media device.
+
+**Driver Usage**
+
+Drivers should use the media-core routines to get register reference and
+call :c:func:`media_device_delete()` routine to make sure the shared media
+device delete is handled correctly.
+
+**driver probe:**
+Call :c:func:`media_device_usb_allocate()` to allocate or get a reference
+Call :c:func:`media_device_register()`, if media devnode isn't registered
+
+**driver disconnect:**
+Call :c:func:`media_device_delete()` to free the media_device. Free'ing is
+handled by the kref put handler.
