Revert "media: dvb header files: move some headers to staging"

2021-08-23T16:49:09+00:00

This reverts commit 819fbd3d8ef36c09576c2a0ffea503f5c46e9177.

It turns out that some user-space applications use these uapi header
files, so even though the only user of the interface is an old driver
that was moved to staging, moving the header files causes unnecessary
pain.

Generally, we really don't want user space to use kernel headers
directly (exactly because it causes pain when we re-organize), and
instead copy them as needed.  But these things happen, and the headers
were in the uapi directory, so I guess it's not entirely unreasonable.

media: dvb header files: move some headers to staging

2021-06-04T06:07:30+00:00

The audio, video and OSD APIs are used upstream only by the
av7110 driver, which was moved to staging.

So, move the corresponding header files to it.

media: dvb: tag deprecated DVB APIs as such

2019-06-05T14:55:30+00:00

There are three headers at DVB that should not be used on
future projects: audio.h, osd.h and video.h.

While this is already clear at the docs, make clear also at
the headers that those files should not be used on future
drivers.

media: do not use C++ style comments in uapi headers

2019-06-05T14:53:19+00:00

Linux kernel tolerates C++ style comments these days. Actually, the
SPDX License tags for .c files start with //.

On the other hand, uapi headers are written in more strict C, where
the C++ comment style is forbidden.

media: dvb/audio.h: get rid of unused APIs

2018-07-30T20:21:49+00:00

There are a number of other ioctls that aren't used anywhere
inside the Kernel tree.

Get rid of them.

media: dvb: get rid of VIDEO_SET_SPU_PALETTE

2018-07-27T10:41:35+00:00

No upstream drivers use it. It doesn't make any sense to have
a compat32 code for something that nobody uses upstream.

media: dvb: add continuity error indicators for memory mapped buffers

2018-02-23T10:28:41+00:00

While userspace can detect discontinuity errors, it is useful to
also let Kernelspace reporting discontinuity, as it can help to
identify if the data loss happened either at Kernel or userspace side.

Update documentation accordingly.

media: dvb-core: get rid of mmap reserved field

2017-12-28T16:17:31+00:00

The "reserved" field was a way, used at V4L2 API, to add new
data to existing structs without breaking userspace. However,
there are now clever ways of doing that, without needing to add
an uneeded overhead. So, get rid of them.
