Members
alloc
allocate video memory and, optionally, allocator private data, return
ERR_PTR()
on failure or a pointer to allocator private, per-buffer data on success; the returned private structure will then be passed as buf_priv argument to other ops in this structure. The size argument to this function shall be page aligned.put
inform the allocator that the buffer will no longer be used; usually will result in the allocator freeing the buffer (if no other users of this buffer are present); the buf_priv argument is the allocator private per-buffer structure previously returned from the alloc callback.
get_dmabuf
acquire userspace memory for a hardware operation; used for DMABUF memory types.
get_userptr
acquire userspace memory for a hardware operation; used for USERPTR memory types; vaddr is the address passed to the videobuf2 layer when queuing a video buffer of USERPTR type; should return an allocator private per-buffer structure associated with the buffer on success,
ERR_PTR()
on failure; the returned private structure will then be passed as buf_priv argument to other ops in this structure.put_userptr
inform the allocator that a USERPTR buffer will no longer be used.
prepare
called every time the buffer is passed from userspace to the driver, useful for cache synchronisation, optional.
finish
called every time the buffer is passed back from the driver to the userspace, also optional.
attach_dmabuf
attach a shared
struct dma_buf
for a hardware operation; used for DMABUF memory types; dev is the alloc device dbuf is the shared dma_buf; returnsERR_PTR()
on failure; allocator private per-buffer structure on success; this needs to be used for further accesses to the buffer.detach_dmabuf
inform the exporter of the buffer that the current DMABUF buffer is no longer used; the buf_priv argument is the allocator private per-buffer structure previously returned from the attach_dmabuf callback.
map_dmabuf
request for access to the dmabuf from allocator; the allocator of dmabuf is informed that this driver is going to use the dmabuf.
unmap_dmabuf
releases access control to the dmabuf - allocator is notified that this driver is done using the dmabuf for now.
vaddr
return a kernel virtual address to a given memory buffer associated with the passed private structure or NULL if no such mapping exists.
cookie
return allocator specific cookie for a given memory buffer associated with the passed private structure or NULL if not available.
num_users
return the current number of users of a memory buffer; return 1 if the videobuf2 layer (or actually the driver using it) is the only user.
mmap
setup a userspace mapping for a given memory buffer under the provided virtual memory region.
Description
Those operations are used by the videobuf2 core to implement the memory handling/memory allocators for each type of supported streaming I/O method.
Note
Required ops for USERPTR types: get_userptr, put_userptr.
Required ops for MMAP types: alloc, put, num_users, mmap.
Required ops for read/write access types: alloc, put, num_users, vaddr.
Required ops for DMABUF types: attach_dmabuf, detach_dmabuf, map_dmabuf, unmap_dmabuf.

void (*buf_queue)(struct vb2_buffer *vb);
void (*buf_request_complete)(struct vb2_buffer *vb);
};
Members
queue_setup
called from VIDIOC_REQBUFS() and VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS() handlers before memory allocation. It can be called twice: if the original number of requested buffers could not be allocated, then it will be called a second time with the actually allocated number of buffers to verify if that is OK. The driver should return the required number of buffers in *num_buffers, the required number of planes per buffer in *num_planes, the size of each plane should be set in the sizes[] array and optional per-plane allocator specific device in the alloc_devs[] array. When called from VIDIOC_REQBUFS(), *num_planes == 0, the driver has to use the currently configured format to determine the plane sizes and *num_buffers is the total number of buffers that are being allocated. When called from VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS(), *num_planes != 0 and it describes the requested number of planes and sizes[] contains the requested plane sizes. In this case *num_buffers are being allocated additionally to the buffers already allocated. If either *num_planes or the requested sizes are invalid callback must return
-EINVAL
.wait_prepare
release any locks taken while calling vb2 functions; it is called before an ioctl needs to wait for a new buffer to arrive; required to avoid a deadlock in blocking access type.
wait_finish
reacquire all locks released in the previous callback; required to continue operation after sleeping while waiting for a new buffer to arrive.
buf_out_validate
called when the output buffer is prepared or queued to a request; drivers can use this to validate userspace-provided information; this is required only for OUTPUT queues.
buf_init
called once after allocating a buffer (in MMAP case) or after acquiring a new USERPTR buffer; drivers may perform additional buffer-related initialization; initialization failure (return != 0) will prevent queue setup from completing successfully; optional.
buf_prepare
called every time the buffer is queued from userspace and from the VIDIOC_PREPARE_BUF() ioctl; drivers may perform any initialization required before each hardware operation in this callback; drivers can access/modify the buffer here as it is still synced for the CPU; drivers that support VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS() must also validate the buffer size; if an error is returned, the buffer will not be queued in driver; optional.
buf_finish
called before every dequeue of the buffer back to userspace; the buffer is synced for the CPU, so drivers can access/modify the buffer contents; drivers may perform any operations required before userspace accesses the buffer; optional. The buffer state can be one of the following:
DONE
andERROR
occur while streaming is in progress, and thePREPARED
state occurs when the queue has been canceled and all pending buffers are being returned to their defaultDEQUEUED
state. Typically you only have to do something if the state isVB2_BUF_STATE_DONE
, since in all other cases the buffer contents will be ignored anyway.buf_cleanup
called once before the buffer is freed; drivers may perform any additional cleanup; optional.
prepare_streaming
called once to prepare for ‘streaming’ state; this is where validation can be done to verify everything is okay and streaming resources can be claimed. It is called when the VIDIOC_STREAMON ioctl is called. The actual streaming starts when start_streaming is called. Optional.
start_streaming
called once to enter ‘streaming’ state; the driver may receive buffers with buf_queue callback before start_streaming is called; the driver gets the number of already queued buffers in count parameter; driver can return an error if hardware fails, in that case all buffers that have been already given by the buf_queue callback are to be returned by the driver by calling
vb2_buffer_done()
withVB2_BUF_STATE_QUEUED
. If you need a minimum number of buffers before you can start streaming, then setvb2_queue->min_queued_buffers
. If that is non-zero then start_streaming won’t be called until at least that many buffers have been queued up by userspace.stop_streaming
called when ‘streaming’ state must be disabled; driver should stop any DMA transactions or wait until they finish and give back all buffers it got from
buf_queue
callback by callingvb2_buffer_done()
with eitherVB2_BUF_STATE_DONE
orVB2_BUF_STATE_ERROR
; may usevb2_wait_for_all_buffers()
functionunprepare_streaming
called as counterpart to prepare_streaming; any claimed streaming resources can be released here. It is called when the VIDIOC_STREAMOFF ioctls is called or when the streaming filehandle is closed. Optional.
buf_queue
passes buffer vb to the driver; driver may start hardware operation on this buffer; driver should give the buffer back by calling
vb2_buffer_done()
function; it is always called after calling VIDIOC_STREAMON() ioctl; might be called before start_streaming callback if user pre-queued buffers before calling VIDIOC_STREAMON().buf_request_complete
a buffer that was never queued to the driver but is associated with a queued request was canceled. The driver will have to mark associated objects in the request as completed; required if requests are supported.
Description
These operations are not called from interrupt context except where mentioned specifically.
-
struct vb2_buf_ops¶
driver-specific callbacks.
Definition:
struct vb2_buf_ops {
int (*verify_planes_array)(struct vb2_buffer *vb, const void *pb);

Members
verify_planes_array
Verify that a given user space structure contains enough planes for the buffer. This is called for each dequeued buffer.
init_buffer
given a
vb2_buffer
initialize the extra data afterstruct vb2_buffer
. For V4L2 this is astruct vb2_v4l2_buffer
.fill_user_buffer
given a
vb2_buffer
fill in the userspace structure. For V4L2 this is astruct v4l2_buffer
.fill_vb2_buffer
given a userspace structure, fill in the
vb2_buffer
. If the userspace structure is invalid, then this op will return an error.copy_timestamp
copy the timestamp from a userspace structure to the
struct vb2_buffer
.
-

u32 min_reqbufs_allocation;
struct device *alloc_devs[VB2_MAX_PLANES];
};
Members
type
private buffer type whose content is defined by the vb2-core caller. For example, for V4L2, it should match the types defined on
enum v4l2_buf_type
.io_modes
supported io methods (see
enum vb2_io_modes
).dev
device to use for the default allocation context if the driver doesn’t fill in the alloc_devs array.
dma_attrs
DMA attributes to use for the DMA.
bidirectional
when this flag is set the DMA direction for the buffers of this queue will be overridden with
DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL
direction. This is useful in cases where the hardware (firmware) writes to a buffer which is mapped as read (DMA_TO_DEVICE
), or reads from buffer which is mapped for write (DMA_FROM_DEVICE
) in order to satisfy some internal hardware restrictions or adds a padding needed by the processing algorithm. In case the DMA mapping is not bidirectional but the hardware (firmware) trying to access the buffer (in the opposite direction) this could lead to an IOMMU protection faults.fileio_read_once
report EOF after reading the first buffer
fileio_write_immediately
queue buffer after each write() call
allow_zero_bytesused
allow bytesused == 0 to be passed to the driver
quirk_poll_must_check_waiting_for_buffers
Return
EPOLLERR
at poll when QBUF has not been called. This is a vb1 idiom that has been adopted also by vb2.supports_requests
this queue supports the Request API.
requires_requests
this queue requires the Request API. If this is set to 1, then supports_requests must be set to 1 as well.
uses_qbuf
qbuf was used directly for this queue. Set to 1 the first time this is called. Set to 0 when the queue is canceled. If this is 1, then you cannot queue buffers from a request.
uses_requests
requests are used for this queue. Set to 1 the first time a request is queued. Set to 0 when the queue is canceled. If this is 1, then you cannot queue buffers directly.
allow_cache_hints
when set user-space can pass cache management hints in order to skip cache flush/invalidation on ->prepare() or/and ->finish().
non_coherent_mem
when set queue will attempt to allocate buffers using non-coherent memory.
lock
pointer to a mutex that protects the
struct vb2_queue
. The driver can set this to a mutex to let the v4l2 core serialize the queuing ioctls. If the driver wants to handle locking itself, then this should be set to NULL. This lock is not used by the videobuf2 core API.owner
The filehandle that ‘owns’ the buffers, i.e. the filehandle that called reqbufs, create_buffers or started fileio. This field is not used by the videobuf2 core API, but it allows drivers to easily associate an owner filehandle with the queue.
ops
driver-specific callbacks
mem_ops
memory allocator specific callbacks
buf_ops
callbacks to deliver buffer information. between user-space and kernel-space.
drv_priv
driver private data.
subsystem_flags
Flags specific to the subsystem (V4L2/DVB/etc.). Not used by the vb2 core.
buf_struct_size
size of the driver-specific buffer structure; “0” indicates the driver doesn’t want to use a custom buffer structure type. In that case a subsystem-specific struct will be used (in the case of V4L2 that is
sizeof(struct vb2_v4l2_buffer)
). The first field of the driver-specific buffer structure must be the subsystem-specific struct (vb2_v4l2_buffer in the case of V4L2).timestamp_flags
Timestamp flags;
V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_*
andV4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_*
gfp_flags
additional gfp flags used when allocating the buffers. Typically this is 0, but it may be e.g.
GFP_DMA
or__GFP_DMA32
to force the buffer allocation to a specific memory zone.min_queued_buffers
the minimum number of queued buffers needed before start_streaming can be called. Used when a DMA engine cannot be started unless at least this number of buffers have been queued into the driver. VIDIOC_REQBUFS will ensure at least min_queued_buffers + 1 buffers will be allocated. Note that VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS will not modify the requested buffer count.
min_reqbufs_allocation
the minimum number of buffers to be allocated when calling VIDIOC_REQBUFS. Note that VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS will not modify the requested buffer count and does not use this field. Drivers can set this if there has to be a certain number of buffers available for the hardware to work effectively. This allows calling VIDIOC_REQBUFS with a buffer count of 1 and it will be automatically adjusted to a workable buffer count. If set, then min_reqbufs_allocation must be larger than min_queued_buffers + 1. If this field is > 3, then it is highly recommended that the driver implements the V4L2_CID_MIN_BUFFERS_FOR_CAPTURE/OUTPUT control.
alloc_devs
struct device
memory type/allocator-specific per-plane device
-
bool vb2_queue_allows_cache_hints(struct vb2_queue *q)¶
Return true if the queue allows cache and memory consistency hints.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue
-
void *vb2_plane_vaddr(struct vb2_buffer *vb, unsigned int plane_no)¶
Return a kernel virtual address of a given plane.
Parameters
struct vb2_buffer *vb
pointer to
struct vb2_buffer
to which the plane in question belongs to.unsigned int plane_no
plane number for which the address is to be returned.
Description
This function returns a kernel virtual address of a given plane if such a mapping exist, NULL otherwise.
-
void *vb2_plane_cookie(struct vb2_buffer *vb, unsigned int plane_no)¶
Return allocator specific cookie for the given plane.
Parameters
struct vb2_buffer *vb
pointer to
struct vb2_buffer
to which the plane in question belongs to.unsigned int plane_no
plane number for which the cookie is to be returned.
Description
This function returns an allocator specific cookie for a given plane if available, NULL otherwise. The allocator should provide some simple static inline function, which would convert this cookie to the allocator specific type that can be used directly by the driver to access the buffer. This can be for example physical address, pointer to scatter list or IOMMU mapping.
-
void vb2_buffer_done(struct vb2_buffer *vb, enum vb2_buffer_state state)¶
inform videobuf2 that an operation on a buffer is finished.
Parameters
struct vb2_buffer *vb
pointer to
struct vb2_buffer
to be used.enum vb2_buffer_state state
state of the buffer, as defined by
enum vb2_buffer_state
. EitherVB2_BUF_STATE_DONE
if the operation finished successfully,VB2_BUF_STATE_ERROR
if the operation finished with an error orVB2_BUF_STATE_QUEUED
.
Description
This function should be called by the driver after a hardware operation on
a buffer is finished and the buffer may be returned to userspace. The driver
cannot use this buffer anymore until it is queued back to it by videobuf
by the means of vb2_ops->buf_queue
callback. Only buffers previously queued
to the driver by vb2_ops->buf_queue
can be passed to this function.
While streaming a buffer can only be returned in state DONE or ERROR.
The vb2_ops->start_streaming
op can also return them in case the DMA engine
cannot be started for some reason. In that case the buffers should be
returned with state QUEUED to put them back into the queue.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.
Description
This function is intended to be used with suspend/resume operations. It discards all ‘done’ buffers as they would be too old to be requested after resume.
Drivers must stop the hardware and synchronize with interrupt handlers and/or delayed works before calling this function to make sure no buffer will be touched by the driver and/or hardware.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.
Description
This function will wait until all buffers that have been given to the driver
by vb2_ops->buf_queue
are given back to vb2 with vb2_buffer_done()
. It
doesn’t call vb2_ops->wait_prepare
/vb2_ops->wait_finish
pair.
It is intended to be called with all locks taken, for example from
vb2_ops->stop_streaming
callback.

Description
Videobuf2 core helper to implement VIDIOC_EXPBUF() operation. It is called
internally by VB2 by an API-specific handler, like videobuf2-v4l2.h
.
Return
returns zero on success; an error code otherwise.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue. This structure should be allocated in driver
Description
The vb2_queue
structure should be allocated by the driver. The driver is
responsible of clearing it’s content and setting initial values for some
required entries before calling this function.
Note
The following fields at q should be set before calling this function:
vb2_queue->ops
, vb2_queue->mem_ops
, vb2_queue->type
.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.
Description
This function stops streaming and performs necessary clean ups, including
freeing video buffer memory. The driver is responsible for freeing
the struct vb2_queue
itself.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.
Description
Flag that a fatal unrecoverable error has occurred and wake up all processes
waiting on the queue. Polling will now set EPOLLERR
and queuing and dequeuing
buffers will return -EIO
.
The error flag will be cleared when canceling the queue, either from
vb2_streamoff()
or vb2_queue_release()
. Drivers should thus not call this
function before starting the stream, otherwise the error flag will remain set
until the queue is released when closing the device node.
-
int vb2_mmap(struct vb2_queue *q, struct vm_area_struct *vma)¶
map video buffers into application address space.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.struct vm_area_struct *vma
pointer to
struct vm_area_struct
with the vma passed to the mmap file operation handler in the driver.
Description
Should be called from mmap file operation handler of a driver. This function maps one plane of one of the available video buffers to userspace. To map whole video memory allocated on reqbufs, this function has to be called once per each plane per each buffer previously allocated.
When the userspace application calls mmap, it passes to it an offset returned
to it earlier by the means of v4l2_ioctl_ops->vidioc_querybuf
handler.
That offset acts as a “cookie”, which is then used to identify the plane
to be mapped.
This function finds a plane with a matching offset and a mapping is performed by the means of a provided memory operation.
The return values from this function are intended to be directly returned from the mmap handler in driver.

Description
This function is used in noMMU platforms to propose address mapping
for a given buffer. It’s intended to be used as a handler for the
file_operations->get_unmapped_area
operation.
This is called by the mmap() syscall routines will call this
to get a proposed address for the mapping, when !CONFIG_MMU
.

with videobuf2 queue.vb2_thread_fnc fnc
vb2_thread_fnc
callback function.void *priv
priv pointer passed to the callback function.
const char *thread_name
the name of the thread. This will be prefixed with “vb2-“.
Description
This starts a thread that will queue and dequeue until an error occurs
or vb2_thread_stop()
is called.
Attention
This function should not be used for anything else but the videobuf2-dvb support. If you think you have another good use-case for this, then please contact the linux-media mailing list first.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.
Description
This returns true if read() or write() is used to stream the data
as opposed to stream I/O. This is almost never an important distinction,
except in rare cases. One such case is that using read() or write() to
stream a format using V4L2_FIELD_ALTERNATE
is not allowed since there
is no way you can pass the field information of each buffer to/from
userspace. A driver that supports this field format should check for
this in the vb2_ops->queue_setup
op and reject it if this function returns
true.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.
Description
This function checks if queue has any buffers allocated.

struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.const char *name
the queue name
Description
This function initializes the vb2_queue exactly like vb2_queue_init()
,

the type to change to (V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_*)
Description
This function changes the type of the vb2_queue. This is only possible if the queue is not busy (i.e. no buffers have been allocated).
vb2_queue_change_type()
can be used to support multiple buffer types using
the same queue. The driver can implement v4l2_ioctl_ops.vidioc_reqbufs and
v4l2_ioctl_ops.vidioc_create_bufs functions and call vb2_queue_change_type()
before calling vb2_ioctl_reqbufs() or vb2_ioctl_create_bufs(), and thus
“lock” the buffer type until the buffers have been released.
-
__poll_t vb2_poll(struct vb2_queue *q, struct file *file, poll_table *wait)¶
implements poll userspace operation
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.struct file *file
file argument passed to the poll file operation handler
poll_table *wait
wait argument passed to the poll file operation handler
Description
This function implements poll file operation handler for a driver. For CAPTURE queues, if a buffer is ready to be dequeued, the userspace will be informed that the file descriptor of a video device is available for reading. For OUTPUT queues, if a buffer is ready to be dequeued, the file descriptor will be reported as available for writing.
If the driver uses struct v4l2_fh
, then vb2_poll()
will also check for any
pending events.
The return values from this function are intended to be directly returned from poll handler in driver.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *q
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
with videobuf2 queue.struct file *file
file through which the vb2 queue access is performed
Description
The queue is considered busy if it has an owner and the owner is not the file.
Queue ownership is acquired and checked by some of the v4l2_ioctl_ops helpers below. Drivers can also use this function directly when they need to open-code ioctl handlers, for instance to add additional checks between the queue ownership test and the call to the corresponding vb2 operation.
-
void vb2_video_unregister_device(struct video_device *vdev)¶
unregister the video device and release queue
Parameters
struct video_device *vdev
pointer to
struct video_device
Description
If the driver uses vb2_fop_release()/_vb2_fop_release(), then it should use
vb2_video_unregister_device()
instead of video_unregister_device()
.
This function will call video_unregister_device()
and then release the
vb2_queue if streaming is in progress. This will stop streaming and
this will simplify the unbind sequence since after this call all subdevs
will have stopped streaming as well.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *vq
pointer to
struct vb2_queue
Description
..note:: only use if vq->lock is non-NULL.
Parameters
struct vb2_queue *vq
pointer to
