From 64b9ce83a446277d3ffdb5e25e9aeb66442da2a9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sakari Ailus Date: Fri, 1 Jun 2012 13:56:53 -0300 Subject: [media] v4l: Common documentation for selection targets Both V4L2 and V4L2 subdev interface have very similar selection APIs with differences foremost related to in-memory and media bus formats. However, the selection targets are the same for both. Most targets are and in the future will likely continue to be more the same than with any differences. Thus it makes sense to unify the documentation of the targets.

+ + Selection targets + + While the V4L2 selection + API and V4L2 subdev + selection APIs are very similar, there's one fundamental + difference between the two. On sub-device API, the selection + rectangle refers to the media bus format, and is bound to a + sub-device's pad.
