+ Streaming I/O (DMA buffer importing) + + + Experimental + This is an experimental + interface and may change in the future. + + +The DMABUF framework provides a generic mean for sharing buffers between + multiple devices. Device drivers that support DMABUF can export a DMA buffer +to userspace as a file descriptor (known as the exporter role), import a DMA +buffer from userspace using a file descriptor previously exported for a +different or the same device (known as the importer role), or both. This +section describes the DMABUF importer role API in V4L2. + +Input and output devices support the streaming I/O method when the +V4L2_CAP_STREAMING flag in the +capabilities field of &v4l2-capability; returned by +the &VIDIOC-QUERYCAP; ioctl is set. Whether importing DMA buffers through +DMABUF file descriptors is supported is determined by calling the +&VIDIOC-REQBUFS; ioctl with the memory type set to +V4L2_MEMORY_DMABUF. + + This I/O method is dedicated for sharing DMA buffers between V4L and +other APIs. Buffers (planes) are allocated by a driver on behalf of the +application, and exported to the application as file descriptors using an API +specific to the allocator driver. Only those file descriptor are exchanged, +these files and meta-information are passed in &v4l2-buffer; (or in +&v4l2-plane; in the multi-planar API case). The driver must be switched into +DMABUF I/O mode by calling the &VIDIOC-REQBUFS; with the desired buffer type. +No buffers (planes) are allocated beforehand, consequently they are not indexed +and cannot be queried like mapped buffers with the +VIDIOC_QUERYBUF ioctl. + + + Initiating streaming I/O with DMABUF file descriptors + + +&v4l2-requestbuffers; reqbuf; + +memset (&reqbuf, 0, sizeof (reqbuf)); +reqbuf.type = V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE; +reqbuf.memory = V4L2_MEMORY_DMABUF; +reqbuf.count = 1; + +if (ioctl (fd, &VIDIOC-REQBUFS;, &reqbuf) == -1) { + if (errno == EINVAL) + printf ("Video capturing or DMABUF streaming is not supported\n"); + else + perror ("VIDIOC_REQBUFS"); + + exit (EXIT_FAILURE); +} + + + + Buffer (plane) file descriptor is passed on the fly with the +&VIDIOC-QBUF; ioctl.

The driver can unlock the buffer at any +time between the completion of the DMA and this ioctl. The memory is +also unlocked when &VIDIOC-STREAMOFF; is called, &VIDIOC-REQBUFS;, or +when the device is closed. + + For capturing applications it is customary to enqueue a +number of empty buffers, to start capturing and enter the read loop. +Here the application waits until a filled buffer can be dequeued, and +re-enqueues the buffer when the data is no longer needed. Output +applications fill and enqueue buffers, when enough buffers are stacked +up output is started. In the write loop, when the application +runs out of free buffers it must wait until an empty buffer can be +dequeued and reused. Two methods exist to suspend execution of the +application until one or more buffers can be dequeued. By default +VIDIOC_DQBUF blocks when no buffer is in the +outgoing queue. When the O_NONBLOCK flag was +given to the &func-open; function, VIDIOC_DQBUF +returns immediately with an &EAGAIN; when no buffer is available. The +&func-select; or &func-poll; function are always available. + + To start and stop capturing or output applications call the +&VIDIOC-STREAMON; and &VIDIOC-STREAMOFF; ioctls. Note that +VIDIOC_STREAMOFF removes all buffers from both queues and +unlocks all buffers as a side effect. Since there is no notion of doing +anything "now" on a multitasking system, if an application needs to synchronize +with another event it should examine the &v4l2-buffer; +timestamp of captured buffers, or set the field +before enqueuing buffers for output. + + Drivers implementing DMABUF importing I/O must support the +VIDIOC_REQBUFS, VIDIOC_QBUF, +VIDIOC_DQBUF, VIDIOC_STREAMON and +VIDIOC_STREAMOFF ioctls, and the +select() and poll() functions. + +
