Subject: [PATCH v4 06/31] media: entity: Move the pipeline from entity to pads
Date: Thu, 28 Mar 2019 21:05:43 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190328200608.9463-7-jacopo+renesas@jmondi.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190328200608.9463-1-jacopo+renesas@jmondi.org>
From: Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com>
This moves the pipe and stream_count fields from struct media_entity to
struct media_pad. Effectively streams become pad-specific rather than
being entity specific, allowing several independent streams to traverse a
single entity and an entity to be part of several streams.

Reviewed-by: Niklas Söderlund <niklas.soderlund+renesas@ragnatech.se>
Reviewed-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com>
- Update documentation to use 'pads'
- Use the media pad iterator in media_entity.c
- Update rcar-dma.c to use the new per-pad stream count
