2019-08-19media: docs-rst: Document memory-to-memory video decoder interfaceTomasz Figa
Due to complexity of the video decoding process, the V4L2 drivers of stateful decoder hardware require specific sequences of V4L2 API calls to be followed. These include capability enumeration, initialization, decoding, seek, pause, dynamic resolution change, drain and end of stream. Specifics of the above have been discussed during Media Workshops at LinuxCon Europe 2012 in Barcelona and then later Embedded Linux Conference Europe 2014 in Düsseldorf. The de facto Codec API that originated at those events was later implemented by the drivers we already have merged in mainline, such as s5p-mfc or coda. The only thing missing was the real specification included as a part of Linux Media documentation. Fix it now and document the decoder part of the Codec API.

2018-12-05media: add SPDX header to media uAPI filesMauro Carvalho Chehab
All those files are under GFDL 1.1 or later, with no invariant sections. Tag them as such. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>

This is not needed there. Also, the same UTF-8 encoding should be used on all documents. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>
2016-09-22[media] v4l: doc: Remove row numbers from tablesLaurent Pinchart
Shorten the tables by removing row numbers in comments, allowing for later insertion of rows with minimal diffs. All changes have been generated by the following script. import io import re import sys def process_table(fname, data): if fname.endswith('hist-v4l2.rst'): data = re.sub(u'\n{1,2}\t( ?) -( ?) ?', u'\n\t\\1 -\\2', data, flags = re.MULTILINE) data = re.sub(u'\n(\t| )- \.\. row [0-9]+\n\t ?-( ?) ?', u'\\1* -\\2', data, flags = re.MULTILINE) else: data = re.sub(u'\n{1,2} -( ?) ?', u'\n -\\1', data, flags = re.MULTILINE) data = re.sub(u'(\n?)(\n\n - \.\. row 1\n)', u'\n\\2', data, flags = re.MULTILINE) data = re.sub(u'\n - \.\. row [0-9]+\n -( ?) ?', u' * -\\1', data, flags = re.MULTILINE) data = re.sub(u'\n - \.\. row [0-9]+\n \.\.

2016-09-09[media] docs-rst: convert uAPI structs to C domainMauro Carvalho Chehab
instead of declaring the uAPI structs using usual refs, e. g.: .. _foo-struct: Use the C domain way: .. c:type:: foo_struct This way, the kAPI documentation can use cross-references to point to the uAPI symbols. That solves about ~100 undefined warnings like: WARNING: c:type reference target not found: foo_struct Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-08-22[media] docs-rst: Convert V4L2 uAPI to use C function referencesMauro Carvalho Chehab
Name all ioctl references and make them match the ioctls that are documented. That will improve the cross-reference index, as it will have all ioctls and syscalls there. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-08-22[media] docs-next: stop abusing on the cpp domainMauro Carvalho Chehab
Now that we have an override for the c domain that will do the right thing for the Kernel, stop abusing on the cpp domain. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-08-22[media] docs-rst: fix warnings introduced by LaTeX patchsetMauro Carvalho Chehab
Sphinx is really pedantic with respect to the order where table tags and references are created. Putting things at the wrong order causes troubles. The order that seems to work is: .. raw:: latex .. tabularcolumns:: .. _foo_name: .. cssclass: longtable .. flat-table:: Reorder the tags to the above order, to avoid troubles, and fix remaining warnings introduced by media recent patches.

2016-08-22[media] vidioc-decoder-cmd.rst: better adjust column widthsMauro Carvalho Chehab
Better adjust the columns for LaTeX output Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-08-22[media] docs-rst: add tabularcolumns to all tablesMauro Carvalho Chehab
LaTeX doesn't handle too well auto-width on tables, and ReST markup requires an special tag to give it the needed hints. As we're using A4 paper, we have 17cm of useful spaces. As most media tables have widths, let's use it to generate the needed via the following perl script: my ($line_size, $table_header, $has_cols) = (17.5, 0, 0); my $out; my $header = ""; my @widths = (); sub round { $_[0] > 0 ? int($_[0] + .5) : -int(-$_[0] + .5) } while (<>) { if (!$table_header) { $has_cols = 1 if (m/..\s+tabularcolumns::/); if (m/..\s+flat-table::/) { $table_header = 1; $header = $_; next; } $out .= $_; next; } $header .= $_; @widths = split(/ /, $1) if (m/:widths:\s+(.*)/); if (m/^\n$/) { if (!$has_cols && @widths) { my ($tot, $t, $i) = (0, 0, 0); foreach my $v(@widths) { $tot += $v; }; $out .= ".. tabularcolumns:: |"; for ($i = 0; $i < scalar @widths - 1; $i++) { my $v = $widths[$i]; my $w = round(10 * ($v * $line_size) / $tot) / 10; $out .= sprintf "p{%.1fcm}|", $w; $t += $w; } my $w = $line_size - $t; $out .= sprintf "p{%.1fcm}|\n\n", $w; } $out .= $header; $table_header = 0; $has_cols = 0; $header = ""; @widths = (); } } print $out; Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-07-13Revert "[media] docs-rst: escape [] characters"Mauro Carvalho Chehab
This patch touches on places where it shouldn't: image files and code examples. Also, it doesn't fix all array occurrences. So, let's revert it. This reverts commit ffbab694ede33c294e5864a5e0bf4d1474446a71.

Those characters are used for citations. Better to escape, to avoid them to be misinterpreted. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-07-08doc_rst: rename the media Sphinx suff to Documentation/mediaMauro Carvalho Chehab
The name of the subsystem is "media", and not "linux_tv". Also, as we plan to add other stuff there in the future, let's rename also the media uAPI book to media_uapi, to make it clearer. No functional changes. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
