Hi Tiffany, I plan to review this patch series on Friday, but one obvious question is what the reason for these failures is:quoted
Input/Output configuration ioctls: test VIDIOC_ENUM/G/S/QUERY_STD: OK (Not Supported) test VIDIOC_ENUM/G/S/QUERY_DV_TIMINGS: OK (Not Supported) test VIDIOC_DV_TIMINGS_CAP: OK (Not Supported) test VIDIOC_G/S_EDID: OK (Not Supported) Control ioctls: test VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL/MENU: OK fail: ../../../v4l-utils-1.6.0/utils/v4l2-compliance/v4l2-test-controls.cpp(357): g_ctrl returned an error (11) test VIDIOC_G/S_CTRL: FAIL fail: ../../../v4l-utils-1.6.0/utils/v4l2-compliance/v4l2-test-controls.cpp(579): g_ext_ctrls returned an error (11) test VIDIOC_G/S/TRY_EXT_CTRLS: FAILThese fails are because VIDIOC_G_CTRL and VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS return V4L2_CID_MIN_BUFFERS_FOR_CAPTURE only when dirver in MTK_STATE_HEADER state, or it will return EAGAIN. This could help user space get correct value, not default value that may changed base on media content.OK, I really don't like this. I also looked what the s5p-mfc-dec driver does (the only other driver currently implementing this), and that returns -EINVAL. My proposal would be to change this. If this information isn't known yet, why not just return 0 as the value? The doc would have to be updated and (preferably) also the s5p-mfc-dec driver. I've added Samsung devs to the Cc list, let me know what you think.
Got it. We will return 0 as the value instead EAGAIN.

fail: ../../../v4l-utils-1.6.0/utils/v4l2-compliance/v4l2-test-controls.cpp(721): subscribe event for control 'User Controls' failed test VIDIOC_(UN)SUBSCRIBE_EVENT/DQEVENT: FAILDriver do not support subscribe event for control 'User Controls' for now. Do we need to support this?I don't see why this would fail. It's OK to subscribe to such controls, although you'll never get an event.
Got it. I will rerun using latest v4l2-compliance test check this.

I am not opposed to using EAGAIN in s5p-mfc-dec as well. Marek, Kamil, what is your opinion?quoted

So our driver default support v4l2_m2m_ioctl_expbuf functionality. In v4l2-compliance test, it will check v4l2_m2m_ioctl_expbuf only valid when node->valid_memorytype is V4L2_MEMORY_MMAP. So when go through node->valid_memorytype is V4L2_MEMORY_DMABUF, it fail.valid_memorytype should have both MMAP and DMABUF flags. But v4l-utils-1.6.0 is way too old to be certain it isn't some v4l2-compliance bug that has since been fixed.
Got it. I will rerun using master branch to check this. best regards, Tiffany

test VIDIOC_EXPBUF: FAIL Total: 38, Succeeded: 33, Failed: 5, Warnings: 0If it is due to a bug in v4l2-compliance, then let me know and I'll fix it. If not, then it should be fixed in the driver. Frankly, it was the presence of these failures that made me think this patch series wasn't final. Before a v4l2 driver can be accepted in the kernel, v4l2-compliance must pass.
