2011-11-03[media] v4l: Add AUTO option for the V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY controlSylwester Nawrocki
V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY control allows applications to instruct a driver what is the power line frequency so an appropriate filter can be used by the device to cancel flicker by compensating the light intensity ripple. Currently in the menu we have entries for 50 Hz and 60 Hz and for entirely disabling the anti-flicker filter. However some devices are capable of automatically detecting the frequency, so add V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY_AUTO entry for them.

2011-10-18uio: Support physical addresses >32 bits on 32-bit systemsKai Jiang
To support >32-bit physical addresses for UIO_MEM_PHYS type we need to extend the width of 'addr' in struct uio_mem. Numerous platforms like embedded PPC, ARM, and X86 have support for systems with larger physical address than logical. Since 'addr' may contain a physical, logical, or virtual address the easiest solution is to just change the type to 'phys_addr_t' which should always be greater than or equal to the sizeof(void *) such that it can properly hold any of the address types. For physical address we can support up to a 44-bit physical address on a typical 32-bit system as we utilize remap_pfn_range() for the mapping of the memory region and pfn's are represnted by shifting the address by the page size (typically 4k).

2011-09-21[media] videodev2.h: add V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_VOLATILEHans Verkuil
Add a new VOLATILE control flag that is set for volatile controls. That way applications know whether the value of the control is volatile (i.e. can change continuously) or not. Until now this was an internal property, but it is useful to know in userspace as well. A typical use case is the gain value when autogain is on. In that case the hardware will continuously adjust the gain based various environmental factors. This patch just adds and documents the flag, it's not yet used.

2011-09-14ALSA: mpu401: clean up interrupt specificationClemens Ladisch
The semantics of snd_mpu401_uart_new()'s interrupt parameters are somewhat counterintuitive: To prevent the function from allocating its own interrupt, either the irq number must be invalid, or the irq_flags parameter must be zero. At the same time, the irq parameter being invalid specifies that the mpu401 code has to work without an interrupt allocated by the caller. This implies that, if there is an interrupt and it is allocated by the caller, the irq parameter must be set to a valid-looking number which then isn't actually used. With the removal of IRQF_DISABLED, zero becomes a valid irq_flags value, which forces us to handle the parameters differently. This patch introduces a new flag MPU401_INFO_IRQ_HOOK for when the device interrupt is handled by the caller, and makes the allocation of the interrupt to depend only on the irq parameter. As suggested by Takashi, the irq_flags parameter was dropped because, when used, it had the constant value IRQF_DISABLED.

2011-08-29DocBook/drm: The word `so-called'; I do not think it connotes what you think ↵Michael Witten
it connotes From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]: So-called \So"-called`\, a. So named; called by such a name (but perhaps called thus with doubtful propriety). From WordNet (r) 2.0 [wn]: so-called adj : doubtful or suspect; "these so-called experts are no help" [syn: {alleged(a)}, {supposed}] My strong conviction is that widespread use of 'so gennant' or 'sogennant' in German has led to the creeping misuse of 'so-called' in English (especially through technical writings). In English, it would be better to use: what is called or a better translation of 'so gennant': so named Signed-off-by: Michael Witten <mfwitten@gmail.com>
