Marin Mitov d42bffb899 Staging: Yet another (third) dt3155 driver PCI/video4linux compliant
Kernel module (device driver) for dt3155 frame grabber
video4linux2 compliant (finally). Works with "xawtv -f".

======================================================

This driver is written (almost) from scratch, using the
allocator developed for dt3155pci see bellow). The driver
uses videobuf-dma-contig interface modified to use the above
mentioned allocator instead of dma_alloc_coheren().

The first thing to do was to design a new allocator based
on allocating a configurable number of 4MB chunks of memory,
that latter are broken into frame buffers of 768x576 bytes
kept in different FIFOs (queues). As far as the driver autoloads
as a kernel module during kernel boot, the allocation of 4MB
chunks succeeds.

The driver keeps three FIFOs: one for 4MB chunks, one for free
buffers (available for allocations) and one for buffers already
allocated. Allocation/deallocation is done automatically though
the video4linux videobuf subsystem (some pointers to functions
are replaced by driver supplied functions).

Sure, there are problems:

1. The device tested to work with "xawtv -f" either via read()
   method (DT3155_STREAMING not selected), or via mmap() method
   (DT3155_STREAMING is selected) only. This coresponds to either
   cap->capabilities = V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_CAPTURE | V4L2_CAP_READWRITE;
   or
   cap->capabilities = V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_CAPTURE | V4L2_CAP_STREAMING;
   but not when
   cap->capabilities = V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_CAPTURE |
                           V4L2_CAP_STREAMING |
                           V4L2_CAP_READWRITE;
   This is because xawtv calls poll() before starting streaming,
   but videobuf_poll_stream() automatically starts reading if streaming
   is not started.
   This selection is made during kernel configuration (for now).

2. Works for CCIR, but should work for RS-170 (not tested)
   This is made also during kernel configuration.

3. Could work for multiple dt3155 frame grabbers in a PC,
   (private data is allocated during PCI probe() method), but
   is not tested due to lack of a second board.

4. Not tested on a BIG ENDIAN architecture.

5. Many others you could find .... :-)

All critics, comments, suggestions are wellcome.

menuconfig STAGING
bool "Staging drivers"
default n
---help---
This option allows you to select a number of drivers that are
not of the "normal" Linux kernel quality level. These drivers
are placed here in order to get a wider audience to make use of
them. Please note that these drivers are under heavy
development, may or may not work, and may contain userspace
interfaces that most likely will be changed in the near
future.
Using any of these drivers will taint your kernel which might
affect support options from both the community, and various
commercial support organizations.
If you wish to work on these drivers, to help improve them, or
to report problems you have with them, please see the
driver_name.README file in the drivers/staging/ directory to
see what needs to be worked on, and who to contact.
If in doubt, say N here.
if STAGING
config STAGING_EXCLUDE_BUILD
bool "Exclude Staging drivers from being built" if STAGING
default y
---help---
Are you sure you really want to build the staging drivers?
They taint your kernel, don't live up to the normal Linux
kernel quality standards, are a bit crufty around the edges,
and might go off and kick your dog when you aren't paying
attention.
Say N here to be able to select and build the Staging drivers.
This option is primarily here to prevent them from being built
when selecting 'make allyesconfg' and 'make allmodconfig' so
don't be all that put off, your dog will be just fine.
