Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] media: uvcvideo: generalise the XU flags fixup to all controls
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2026 20:25:52 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260902002553.34839-3-jordan.mymail@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260902002553.34839-1-jordan.mymail@gmail.com>
uvc_ctrl_fixup_xu_info() holds a per-device table of controls whose
GET_INFO reply is wrong, and overrides the flags for them. It only runs
from uvc_ctrl_fill_xu_info(), so it can only correct extension unit
controls, but standard controls suffer from the same class of firmware
bug: a device can report a wrong capability byte for a Camera Terminal
or Processing Unit control just as easily.
Rename it to uvc_ctrl_fixup_flags() and call it at the start of
uvc_ctrl_get_flags(), where the flags are derived from GET_INFO for
every control, standard and XU alike. The fixup replaces the flags
wholesale, so when the table covers a control there is no point in
querying a device we already know gives a wrong answer: return early
and skip the GET_INFO request altogether. The call in
uvc_ctrl_fill_xu_info() is dropped, as uvc_ctrl_get_flags() now handles
the fixup for XU controls too.
No functional change for the devices already in the table: their
entries are XU controls, matched by entity and selector before as they
are now, and their flags come from the table either way. The only
difference is one GET_INFO request no longer issued per fixed-up
control.
