Subject: [PATCH 03/17] media: v4l2-subdev: Prepare for changes in getting frame descriptors
Date: Wed, 13 May 2026 13:43:44 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260513104358.2252605-4-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260513104358.2252605-1-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.
