v4l2驱动1-linux-3.0.8的v4l2_dev.h分析

看一下drivers/media/video下的Makefile你会发现:

videodev-objs:=v4l2-dev.o v4l2-ioctl.o v4l2-device.o v4l2-fh.o \

                        v4l2-event.o v4l2-ctrls.o v4l2-subdev.o

这是生成videodev.ko必要的文件。网上有很多讲解v4l2驱动编写的文章。推荐网址:

这是主要说用户使用:

这是说驱动编写:

我的博客将从Makefile中涉及的文件对应的头文件去分析:先从v4l2_dev.h开始

/*
对应上面的ops我要说几点:
1. get_unmapped_area,这个最终赋给file_operations对应的函数。
   这是系统sys_mmap2使用的函数,会判断虚拟内存空间中是否有足
   够的空间的工作。
2. read/write读流
   使用read和write方法,每一帧都要通过I/O 操作,在用户和内核
   空间之间拷贝数据。设备cap要或上V4L2_CAP_READWRITE
3. ioctl和unlocked_ioctl
   这两个都通过file_operations中的unlocked_ioctl调用,v4l2的
   unlocked_ioctl会优先调用,ioctl可以认为是序列化的ioctl,会
   上锁等待上一个ioctl完成,如果在驱动睡眠下会很糟糕。
4. ioctl读流
   在设备cap上要或上V4L2_CAP_STREAMING,让用户与内核空间之间
   交换缓冲区指针,这些缓冲区将被映射到用户地址空间,使帧的零
   拷贝成为可能。
   “用户与内核空间之间交换缓冲区指针”我们要理解的是缓冲区是
   在用户空间还是内核空间。对于内核空间我们通过mmap()方法映射。
   对于用户空间就不需要mmap(),此方法比较难用。
