TODO (general): ================================== - User space interface refinement - Controls should be used when possible rather than private ioctl - No enums should be used - Use of MC and V4L2 subdev APIs when applicable - Single interface header might suffice - Current interface forces to configure everything at once - Get rid of the dm365_ipipe_hw.[ch] layer - Active external sub-devices defined by link configuration; no strcmp needed - More generic platform data (i2c adapters) - The driver should have no knowledge of possible external subdevs; see struct vpfe_subdev_id - Some of the hardware control should be refactorede - Check proper serialisation (through mutexes and spinlocks) - Names that are visible in kernel global namespace should have a common prefix (or a few) - While replacing the older driver in media folder, provide a compatibility layer and compatibility tests that warrants (using the libv4l's LD_PRELOAD approach) there is no regression for the users using the older driver. Building of uImage and Applications: ================================== As of now since the interface will undergo few changes all the include files are present in staging itself, to build for dm365 follow below steps, - copy vpfe.h from drivers/staging/media/davinci_vpfe/ to include/media/davinci/ folder for building the uImage. - copy davinci_vpfe_user.h from drivers/staging/media/davinci_vpfe/ to include/uapi/linux/davinci_vpfe.h, and add a entry in Kbuild (required for building application). - copy dm365_ipipeif_user.h from drivers/staging/media/davinci_vpfe/ to include/uapi/linux/dm365_ipipeif.h and a entry in Kbuild (required for building application).
