4. Overview and features
|
|
========================
|
|
This driver supports the video interface of the devices mounting the ZC0301 or
|
|
ZC0301P Image Processors and Control Chips.
|
|
|
|
The driver relies on the Video4Linux2 and USB core modules. It has been
|
|
designed to run properly on SMP systems as well.
|
|
|
|
The latest version of the ZC0301[P] driver can be found at the following URL:
|
|
http://www.linux-projects.org/
|
|
|
|
Some of the features of the driver are:
|
|
|
|
- full compliance with the Video4Linux2 API (see also "Notes for V4L2
|
|
application developers" paragraph);
|
|
- available mmap or read/poll methods for video streaming through isochronous
|
|
data transfers;
|
|
- automatic detection of image sensor;
|
|
- video format is standard JPEG;
|
|
- dynamic driver control thanks to various module parameters (see "Module
|
|
parameters" paragraph);
|
|
- up to 64 cameras can be handled at the same time; they can be connected and
|
|
disconnected from the host many times without turning off the computer, if
|
|
the system supports hotplugging;
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Module dependencies
|
|
======================
|
|
For it to work properly, the driver needs kernel support for Video4Linux and
|
|
USB.
|
|
|
|
The following options of the kernel configuration file must be enabled and
|
|
corresponding modules must be compiled:
|
|
|
|
# Multimedia devices
|
|
#
|
|
CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV=m
|
|
|
|
# USB support
|
|
#
|
|
CONFIG_USB=m
|
|
|
|
In addition, depending on the hardware being used, the modules below are
|
|
necessary:
|
|
|
|
# USB Host Controller Drivers
|
|
#
|
|
CONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD=m
|
|
CONFIG_USB_UHCI_HCD=m
|
|
CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD=m
|
|
|
|
The ZC0301 controller also provides a built-in microphone interface. It is
|
|
supported by the USB Audio driver thanks to the ALSA API:
|
|
|
|
# Sound
|
|
#
|
|
CONFIG_SOUND=y
|
|
|
|
# Advanced Linux Sound Architecture
|
|
#
|
|
CONFIG_SND=m
|
|
|
|
# USB devices
|
|
#
|
|
CONFIG_SND_USB_AUDIO=m
|
|
|
|
And finally:
|
|
|
|
# V4L USB devices
|
|
#
|
|
CONFIG_USB_ZC0301=m
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. Module loading
|
|
=================
|
|
To use the driver, it is necessary to load the "zc0301" module into memory
|
|
after every other module required: "videodev", "v4l2_common", "compat_ioctl32",
|
|
"usbcore" and, depending on the USB host controller you have, "ehci-hcd",
|
|
"uhci-hcd" or "ohci-hcd".
|
|
|
|
Loading can be done as shown below:
|
|
|
|
[root@localhost home]# modprobe zc0301
|
|
|
|
At this point the devices should be recognized. You can invoke "dmesg" to
|
|
analyze kernel messages and verify that the loading process has gone well:
|
|
|
|
[user@localhost home]$ dmesg
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. Module parameters
|
|
====================
|
|
Module parameters are listed below:
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
Name: video_nr
|
|
Type: short array (min = 0, max = 64)
|
|
Syntax: <-1|n[,...]>
|
|
Description: Specify V4L2 minor mode number:
|
|
-1 = use next available
|
|
n = use minor number n
|
|
You can specify up to 64 cameras this way.
|
|
For example:
|
|
video_nr=-1,2,-1 would assign minor number 2 to the second
|
|
registered camera and use auto for the first one and for every
|
|
other camera.
|
|
Default: -1
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
Name: force_munmap
|
|
Type: bool array (min = 0, max = 64)
|
|
Syntax: <0|1[,...]>
|
|
Description: Force the application to unmap previously mapped buffer memory
|
|
before calling any VIDIOC_S_CROP or VIDIOC_S_FMT ioctl's. Not
|
|
all the applications support this feature. This parameter is
|
|
specific for each detected camera.
|
|
0 = do not force memory unmapping
|
|
1 = force memory unmapping (save memory)
|
|
Default: 0
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
Name: frame_timeout
|
|
Type: uint array (min = 0, max = 64)
|
|
Syntax: <n[,...]>
|
|
Description: Timeout for a video frame in seconds. This parameter is
|
|
specific for each detected camera. This parameter can be
|
|
changed at runtime thanks to the /sys filesystem interface.
|
|
Default: 2
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
Name: debug
|
|
Type: ushort
|
|
Syntax: <n>
|
|
Description: Debugging information level, from 0 to 3:
|
|
0 = none (use carefully)
|
|
1 = critical errors
|
|
2 = significant information
|
|
3 = more verbose messages
|
|
Level 3 is useful for testing only, when only one device
|
|
is used at the same time. It also shows some information
|
|
about the hardware being detected. This module parameter can be
|
|
changed at runtime thanks to the /sys filesystem interface.
|
|
Default: 2
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|

8. Supported devices
|
|
====================
|
|
None of the names of the companies as well as their products will be mentioned
|
|
here. They have never collaborated with the author, so no advertising.
|
|
|
|
From the point of view of a driver, what unambiguously identify a device are
|
|
its vendor and product USB identifiers. Below is a list of known identifiers of
|
|
devices mounting the ZC0301 Image Processor and Control Chips:
|
|
|

The list above does not imply that all those devices work with this driver: up
|
|
until now only the ones that mount the following image sensors are supported;
|
|
kernel messages will always tell you whether this is the case:

9. Notes for V4L2 application developers
|
|
========================================
|
|
This driver follows the V4L2 API specifications. In particular, it enforces two
|
|
rules:
|
|
|
|
- exactly one I/O method, either "mmap" or "read", is associated with each
|
|
file descriptor. Once it is selected, the application must close and reopen the
|
|
device to switch to the other I/O method;
|
|
|
|
- although it is not mandatory, previously mapped buffer memory should always
|
|
be unmapped before calling any "VIDIOC_S_CROP" or "VIDIOC_S_FMT" ioctl's.
|
|
The same number of buffers as before will be allocated again to match the size
|
|
of the new video frames, so you have to map the buffers again before any I/O
|
|
attempts on them.
|
