Re: [PATCH v2 8/9] [media] handle 64-bit time_t in v4l2_buffer

From: Hans Verkuil
Date: Fri Sep 18 2015 - 03:20:23 EST


Hi Arnd,

Thanks once again for working on this! Unfortunately, this approach won't
work, see my comments below.

BTW, I would expect to see compile errors when compiling for 32 bit. Did
you try that?

Is there a reason why you didn't use memcpy like you did for VIDIOC_DQEVENT (path 5/9)?
I would prefer that over these explicit assignments.

This doesn't work. These IOCTL macros use the ioctl nr as the index in the array. Since
VIDIOC_QUERYBUF and VIDIOC_QUERYBUF_TIME32 have the same index, this will fail.

I think (not 100% certain, there may be better suggestions) that the conversion is best
done in video_usercopy(): just before func() is called have a switch for the TIME32
variants, convert to the regular variant, call func() and convert back.

My only concern here is that an additional v4l2_buffer struct (68 bytes) is needed on the
stack. I don't see any way around that, though.

Should this be part of a public API at all? Userspace will never use this struct
or the TIME32 ioctls in the source code, right? This would be more appropriate for
v4l2-ioctl.h.
