Some UVC video cameras contain metadata in their payload headers. This
patch extracts that data, skipping the standard part of the header, on
both bulk and isochronous endpoints and makes it available to the user
space on a separate video node, using the V4L2_CAP_META_CAPTURE
capability and the V4L2_BUF_TYPE_META_CAPTURE buffer queue type. Even
though different cameras will have different metadata formats, we use
the same V4L2_META_FMT_UVC pixel format for all of them. Users have to
parse data, based on the specific camera model information.

v2:
- updated to the current media/master
- removed superfluous META capability from capture nodes
- now the complete UVC payload header is copied to buffers, including 
  standard fields

Still open for discussion: is this really OK to always create an 
additional metadata node for each UVC camera or UVC video interface.

IIUC, Laurent's metadata node patch 
https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/36810/ has been acked by Hans and the 
only thing, that's preventing it from being merged it the lack of 
documentation. While waiting for documentation, I'd appreciate some 
discussion of this patch to beat it into shape soon enough and have it 
ready for merge soon after Laurent's patches are pulled in.

Thanks
Guennadi

Hi Guennadi,

Thank you for the patch.

video_unregister_device() contains a video_is_registered(), no need to 
duplicate it.

I think so, only for the cameras that can produce metadata.

You can move this function to uvcvideo.h and use it in uvc_queue.c (a separate 
patch would be best).

Shouldn't you handle the UVC_QUEUE_DISCONNECTED flag here ?

How about reusing the uvc_queue.c implementation, with a few new checks for 
metadata buffers where needed, instead of duplicating code ? At first sight 
the changes don't seem to be too intrusive (but I might have overlooked 
something).

If you set the device_caps field of struct video_device you won't need the 
above four lines.

You can set vdev->queue above with the rest of the vdev initialization.

I don't think length can be negative, you can make it an unsigned int and 
replace min_t with min below.

Do you need the whole header ? Shouldn't you strip the part already handled by 
the driver ?

This essentially means that you'll need one buffer per isochronous packet. 
Given the number of isochronous packets that make a complete image the cost 
seem prohibitive to me. You should instead gather metadata from all headers 
into a single buffer.

Hi Laurent,

Thanks for the review! I'll work to address your comments. A couple of

Every UVC camera produces metadata, but most cameras only have standard 
fields there. Whether we should stream standard header fields from the 
metadata node will be discussed later. If we do decide to stream standard 
header fields, then every USB camera gets metadata nodes. If we decide not 
to include standard fields, how do we know whether the camera has any 
private fields in headers without streaming from it? Do you want a quirk 
for such cameras?

I thought about that in the beginning and even started implementing it 
that way, but at some point it became too inconvenient, so, I switched 
over to a separate implementation. I'll think about it more and either 
explain, why I didn't want to do that, or unite them.

My original version did that, but we also need the timestamp from the 
header. The driver does parse it, but the implementation there has 
multiple times been reported as buggy and noone has been able to fix it so 
far :) So, I ended up pulling the complete header to the user-space. 
Unless time-stamp processing is fixed in the kernel, I don't think we can 
frop this.

Hm, I only worked with cameras, using bulk transfers, so, didn't consider 
ISOC implications. Will have to think about this.

Unless they can be detected in a standard way that's probably the best 
solution. Please remember that the UVC specification doesn't allow vendors to 
extend headers in a vendor-specific way. This is an abuse of the 
specification, so a quirk is probably the best option.

-ENOTIME I'm afraid, but feel free to give it a go :-) On the other hand 
supplying the PTS and SCR values to userspace would be useful to implement a 
high-accuracy clock translation algorithm that could make use of floating 
point operations.

SCR and PTS should be provided to userspace in a standard way.

Does it not? Where is that specified? I didn't find that anywhere.

It's the other way around, it document a standard way to extend the payload 
header. Any option you pick risks being incompatible with future revisions of 
the specification. For instance the payload header's bmHeaderInfo field can be 
extended through the use of the EOF bit, but a future version of the 
specification could also extend it, in a way that would make a vendor-specific 
extension be mistaken for the standard extension.

Now, you could add data after the standard payload without touching the 
bmHeaderInfo field, but I'm still worried it could be broken by future 
versions of the specification.

Exactly - using "free" space in payload headers is not a part of the spec, 
but is also not prohibited by it. As for future versions - cameras specify 
which version of the spec they implement, and existing versions cannot 
change. If a camera decides to upgrade and in future UVC versions there 
won't be enough space left for the private data, only then the camera 
manufacturer will have a problem, that they will have to solve. The 
user-space software will have to know, that UVC 5.1 metadata has a 
different format, than UVC 1.5, that's true.

I agree that the specification doesn't explicitly forbid it, but it's a very 
grey area. An extension mechanism should be standardized by the USB-IF UVC 
working group. I'd propose it myself if they hadn't decided to kick me out 
years ago :-)

How about a module parameter with a list of VID:PID pairs? The problem 
with the quirk is, that as vendors produce multiple cameras with different 
PIDs they will have to push patches for each such camera.

I'd like something that works out of the box for end-users, at least in most 
cases. There's already a way to set quirks through a module parameter, and I 
think I'd accept a patch extending that it make it VID:PID dependent. That's 
an acceptable solution for testing, but should not be considered as the way to 
go for production.

How many such devices do you expect ?

Ok, that helps already, sure.

No idea, significantly more than 2, let's say :) But well, you already can 
count a few RealSense USB / UVC cameras on the market.

Concerning metadata for isochronous endpoints. I actually don't know what 
to do with it. I don't have any such cameras with non-standard metadata. 
For the standard metadata it would probably be enough to get either the 
first or the last or the middle payload. Collecting all of them seems 
redundant to me. Maybe I could for now only enable metadata nodes for bulk 
endpoints. Would that be acceptable?

Thanks
