/devel/v4l/patchwork/Documentation/output/dmx.h.rst:6: WARNING: undefined label: dmx_dqbuf (if the link has no caption the label must precede a section header)
The V4L2_ASYNC_MATCH_FWNODE match criteria requires just one
struct to be filled (struct fwnode_handle). The V4L2_ASYNC_MATCH_DEVNAME
match criteria requires just a device name.
So, it doesn't make sense to enclose those into structs,
as the criteria can go directly into the union.
That makes easier to document it, as we don't need to document
weird senseless structs.
At drivers, this makes even clearer about the match criteria.

The "reserved" field was a way, used at V4L2 API, to add new
data to existing structs without breaking userspace. However,
there are now clever ways of doing that, without needing to add
an uneeded overhead. So, get rid of them.
media: videobuf2: Add new uAPI for DVB streaming I/O
Adds a new uAPI for DVB to use streaming I/O which is implemented
based on videobuf2, using those new ioctls:
- DMX_REQBUFS: Request kernel to allocate buffers which count and size
are dedicated by user.
- DMX_QUERYBUF: Get the buffer information like a memory offset which
will mmap() and be shared with user-space.
- DMX_EXPBUF: Just for testing whether buffer-exporting success or not.
- DMX_QBUF: Pass the buffer to kernel-space.
- DMX_DQBUF: Get back the buffer which may contain TS data.

seen at:
https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/31613/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/7334301/
The original patch was written before merging VB2-core functionalities
upstream. When such series was added, several adjustments were made,
fixing some issues with V4L2, causing the original patch to be
non-trivially rebased.
After rebased, a few bugs in the patch were fixed. The patch was
also enhanced it and polling functionality got added.
The main changes over the original patch are:
dvb_vb2_fill_buffer():
- Set the size of the outgoing buffer after while loop using
vb2_set_plane_payload;
- Added NULL check for source buffer as per normal convention
of demux driver, this is called twice, first time with valid
buffer second time with NULL pointer, if its not handled,
it will result in crash
- Restricted spinlock for only list_* operations
dvb_vb2_init():
- Restricted q->io_modes to only VB2_MMAP as its the only
supported mode
dvb_vb2_release():
- Replaced the && in if condiion with &, because otherwise
it was always getting satisfied.
dvb_vb2_stream_off():
- Added list_del code for enqueud buffers upon stream off
dvb_vb2_poll():
- Added this new function in order to support polling
dvb_demux_poll() and dvb_dvr_poll()
- dvb_vb2_poll() is now called from these functions
- Ported this patch and latest videobuf2 to lower kernel versions and
tested auto scan.

When kernel-doc is called with output selection filters,
it will be called lots of time for a single file. If

However, currently, the logic is utterly broken, as it uses

it was using the second argument of output_declaration().
I opted to not rely on a globally defined $declaration_name,

This is due to dvb_frontend_detach() being called before
i2c_unregister_device() on the TDA18212 tuner client instance, as
dvb_frontend_detach() causes the demod drivers to release all their

the now invalid (freed) resources. Fix this by putting the I2C client
deregistration in dvb_input_detach() to state/case 0x30, right before the
