Hi,
I have question about V4L2_MEMORY_USERPTR on 64bit applications.
struct v4l2_buffer {
__u32 index;
__u32 type;
__u32 bytesused;
__u32 flags;
__u32 field;
struct timeval timestamp;
struct v4l2_timecode timecode;
__u32 sequence;
/* memory location */
__u32 memory;
union {
__u32 offset;
unsigned long userptr; <<<--- this is a 32bit addr.
struct v4l2_plane *planes;
__s32 fd;
} m;
__u32 length;
__u32 reserved2;
__u32 reserved;
};
when use a 64bit application, memory from malloc is 64bit address.
memory from GPU (eg, intel i915) are also 64bit address.
when use these kind of memory as V4L2_MEMORY_USERPTR, address will be
truncated into 32bit.
this would be error, but actually not. I really don't understand.
BR.
Ning.

Hi, Ning,
unsigned long userptr; <<<--- this is a 32bit addr.
I think it's wrong here,for LP64 data modelmachine(unix-like systems), the
actual size ofdata type 'unsigned long'is 8(64bits value)whichis equal
to pointer.

sorry for wrong question, I really meet memory address truncated issue,
when use V4L2 kernel APIs.
in a kernel thread created by kernel_thread()
I vm_mmap a shmem_file to addr: 00007ffff7fa8000
and queue it to V4L2, after dequeue it, and I find the address is
truncated to 00000000f7fa8000
I use __u64 {aka long long unsigned int} to save address, and I find
userptr is unsigned long, wrongly think it as "data truncated"
and a lot of __u32 in this structure.
everything works fine, but I still don't understand why high 32bit be
0..
BR.
Ning.

64 bit kernel have 64 bit long(not 32 bit), which is not the case with userspace (in 64 bit userspace long is 32-bit). Probably thig got you confused.
