2022-03-28T19:50:50+00:00

Pull staging driver updates from Greg KH: "Here is the big set of staging driver updates for 5.18-rc1. Loads of tiny cleanups for almost all staging drivers in here, nothing major at all. Highlights include: - remove the ashmem Android driver. It is long-dead and if there are any legacy userspace applications still using it, the Android kernel images will maintain it, the community shouldn't care about it anymore - wfx wifi driver major cleanups. Should be ready to merge out of staging soon, and will coordinate with the wifi maintainers after -rc1 is out - major cleanups and unwinding of the layers of the r8188eu driver. It's amazing just how many unneeded layers of abstraction is in there, just when we think it's done, another is found... - lots of tiny coding style cleanups in many other staging drivers. All have been in linux-next for a while with no reported problems" * tag 'staging-5.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging: (455 commits) staging: r8188eu: remove unnecessary memset in r8188eu staging: greybus: introduce pwm_ops::apply staging: rts5208: Resolve checkpatch.pl issues. staging: sm750fb: fix naming style staging: fbtft: Consider type of init sequence values in fbtft_init_display() staging: fbtft: Constify buf parameter in fbtft_dbg_hex() staging: mmal-vchiq: clear redundant item named bulk_scratch mips: dts: ralink: add MT7621 SoC staging: r8188eu: remove some unused local ieee80211 macros staging: r8188eu: make rtl8188e_process_phy_info static staging: r8188eu: remove unused function prototype staging: r8188eu: remove three unused receive defines staging: r8188eu: remove unnecessary initializations staging: rtl8192e: Fix spelling mistake "RESQUEST" -> "REQUEST" MAINTAINERS: remove the obsolete file entry for staging in ANDROID DRIVERS staging: r8188eu: proper error handling in rtw_init_drv_sw staging: r8188eu: call _cancel_timer_ex from _rtw_free_recv_priv staging: vt6656: Removed unused variable vt3342_vnt_threshold staging: vt6656: Removed unused variable bb_vga_0 staging: remove ashmem ...

media: Kconfig: cleanup VIDEO_DEV dependencies

2022-03-18T04:58:35+00:00

media Kconfig has two entries associated to V4L API: VIDEO_DEV and VIDEO_V4L2. On Kernel 2.6.x, there were two V4L APIs, each one with its own flag. VIDEO_DEV were meant to: 1) enable Video4Linux and make its Kconfig options to appear; 2) it makes the Kernel build the V4L core. while VIDEO_V4L2 where used to distinguish between drivers that implement the newer API and drivers that implemented the former one. With time, such meaning changed, specially after the removal of all V4L version 1 drivers. At the current implementation, VIDEO_DEV only does (1): it enables the media options related to V4L, that now has: menu "Video4Linux options" visible if VIDEO_DEV source "drivers/media/v4l2-core/Kconfig" endmenu but it doesn't affect anymore the V4L core drivers. The rationale is that the V4L2 core has a "soft" dependency at the I2C bus, and now requires to select a number of other Kconfig options: config VIDEO_V4L2 tristate depends on (I2C || I2C=n) && VIDEO_DEV select RATIONAL select VIDEOBUF2_V4L2 if VIDEOBUF2_CORE default (I2C || I2C=n) && VIDEO_DEV In the past, merging them would be tricky, but it seems that it is now possible to merge those symbols, in order to simplify V4L dependencies. Let's keep VIDEO_DEV, as this one is used on some make *defconfig configurations.

Use "renesas,rcar-gen3-mlp" instead of "rcar,medialb-dim2" - the documented vendor prefix for Renesas is "renesas," - existing r-car devices use "rcar-genN-XXX" pattern.

staging: most: dim2: use device release method

2021-10-13T12:27:55+00:00

Commit 723de0f9171e ("staging: most: remove device from interface structure") moved registration of driver-provided struct device to the most subsystem. This updated dim2 driver as well. However, struct device passed to register_device() becomes refcounted, and must not be explicitly deallocated, but must provide release method instead. Which is incompatible with managing it via devres. This patch makes the device structure allocated without devres, adds device release method, and moves device destruction there.

staging: most: dim2: do not double-register the same device

2021-10-13T12:27:54+00:00

Commit 723de0f9171e ("staging: most: remove device from interface structure") moved registration of driver-provided struct device to the most subsystem. Dim2 used to register the same struct device to provide a custom device attribute. This causes double-registration of the same struct device. Fix that by moving the custom attribute to driver's dev_groups. This moves attribute to the platform_device object, which is a better location for platform-specific attributes anyway.
