From f0476a83d61a8004eb535a0b65721ca405421fe8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sylwester Nawrocki Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2012 09:30:00 -0300 Subject: [media] V4L: Add capability flags for memory-to-memory devices This patch adds new V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_M2M and V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_M2M_MPLANE capability flags that are intended to be used for memory-to-memory (M2M) devices, instead of ORed V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_CAPTURE and V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_OUTPUT. V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_M2M flag is added at the drivers, CAPTURE and OUTPUT capability flags are left untouched and will be removed in future, after a transition period required for existing applications to be adapted to check only for V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_M2M.
