Those drivers are for obsolete hardware that the old maintainer - didn't care (or not have the hardware anymore), and that no other developer - could find any hardware to buy. They probably have no practical usage today, - and people with such old hardware could probably keep using an older version - of the kernel. Those drivers will be moved to staging on 2.6.38 and, if nobody - cares enough to port and test them with V4L2 API, they'll be removed on 2.6.39. -Who: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org> - ---------------------------- - -What: Video4Linux: Remove obsolete ioctl's -When: kernel 2.6.39 -Files: include/media/videodev2.h -Why: Some ioctl's were defined wrong on 2.6.2 and 2.6.6, using the wrong - type of R/W arguments. They were fixed, but the old ioctl names are - still there, maintained to avoid breaking binary compatibility: - #define VIDIOC_OVERLAY_OLD _IOWR('V', 14, int) - #define VIDIOC_S_PARM_OLD _IOW('V', 22, struct v4l2_streamparm) - #define VIDIOC_S_CTRL_OLD _IOW('V', 28, struct v4l2_control) - #define VIDIOC_G_AUDIO_OLD _IOWR('V', 33, struct v4l2_audio) - #define VIDIOC_G_AUDOUT_OLD _IOWR('V', 49, struct v4l2_audioout) - #define VIDIOC_CROPCAP_OLD _IOR('V', 58, struct v4l2_cropcap) - There's no sense on preserving those forever, as it is very doubtful - that someone would try to use a such old binary with a modern kernel. - Removing them will allow us to remove some magic done at the V4L ioctl - handler. - -Who: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org> - ---------------------------- - What: sys_sysctl When: September 2010 Option: CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL |
