@ -584,6 +584,41 @@ Who: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com>
----------------------------
What: Support for driver specific ioctls in the pwc driver (everything
defined in media/pwc-ioctl.h)
When: 3.3
Why: This stems from the v4l1 era, with v4l2 everything can be done with
standardized v4l2 API calls
Who: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com>
----------------------------
What: Driver specific sysfs API in the pwc driver
When: 3.3
Why: Setting pan/tilt should be done with v4l2 controls, like with other
cams. The button is available as a standard input device
Who: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com>
----------------------------
What: Driver specific use of pixfmt.priv in the pwc driver
When: 3.3
Why: The .priv field never was intended for this, setting a framerate is
support using the standardized S_PARM ioctl
Who: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com>
----------------------------
What: Software emulation of arbritary resolutions in the pwc driver
When: 3.3
Why: The pwc driver claims to support any resolution between 160x120
and 640x480, but emulates this by simply drawing a black border
around the image. Userspace can draw its own black border if it
really wants one.
Who: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com>
----------------------------
What: For VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY the type field must match the device node's type.
If not, return -EINVAL.
When: 3.2
