2020-05-06media: vidioc-enum-fmt.rst: make the ENUM_FMT text clearerHans Verkuil
Rework the documentation to make it easier for the reader to understand the differences in behavior of this ioctl between MC and non-MC drivers. Note the addition of the 'video-node-centric' and 'MC-centric' terms to help understand what the IO_MC capability really means. Also mention in the beginning that mbus_code is one of the fields that application should initialize, and add META_OUTPUT as one of the types that this ioctl supports (that was never added here when the META_OUTPUT buffer type was added). Finally document that EINVAL will be returned if mbus_code is unsupported.

2020-05-06media: v4l2: Extend VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT to support MC-centric devicesLaurent Pinchart
The VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT ioctl enumerates all formats supported by a video node. For MC-centric devices, its behaviour has always been ill-defined, with drivers implementing one of the following behaviours: - No support for VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT at all - Enumerating all formats supported by the video node, regardless of the configuration of the pipeline - Enumerating formats supported by the video node for the active configuration of the connected subdevice The first behaviour is obviously useless for applications. The second behaviour provides the most information, but doesn't offer a way to find what formats are compatible with a given pipeline configuration. The third behaviour fixes that, but with the drawback that applications can't enumerate all supported formats anymore, and have to modify the active configuration of the pipeline to enumerate formats. The situation is messy as none of the implemented behaviours are ideal, and userspace can't predict what will happen as the behaviour is driver-specific. To fix this, let's extend the VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT with a missing capability: enumerating pixel formats for a given media bus code. The media bus code is passed through the v4l2_fmtdesc structure in a new mbus_code field (repurposed from the reserved fields). With this capability in place, applications can enumerate pixel formats for a given media bus code without modifying the active configuration of the device. The current behaviour of the ioctl is preserved when the new mbus_code field is set to 0, ensuring compatibility with existing userspace. The API extension is documented as mandatory for MC-centric devices (as advertised through the V4L2_CAP_IO_MC capability), allowing applications and compliance tools to easily determine the availability of the VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT extension.
