    V4L/DVB (13658): v4l: add a media-bus API for configuring v4l2 subdev pixel and frame formats · 9a74251d
    Guennadi Liakhovetski authored
    Video subdevices, like cameras, decoders, connect to video bridges over
    specialised busses. Data is being transferred over these busses in various
    formats, which only loosely correspond to fourcc codes, describing how video
    data is stored in RAM. This is not a one-to-one correspondence, therefore we
    cannot use fourcc codes to configure subdevice output data formats. This patch
    adds codes for several such on-the-bus formats and an API, similar to the
    familiar .s_fmt(), .g_fmt(), .try_fmt(), .enum_fmt() API for configuring those
    codes. After all users of the old API in struct v4l2_subdev_video_ops are
    converted, it will be removed. Also add helper routines to support generic
    pass-through mode for the soc-camera framework.
