pwc - fix few use-after-free and memory leaks

2009-08-14T05:22:52+00:00

From: Dmitry Torokhov 

I just happen to peek inside the PWC driver and did not like what I saw
there. Please consider applying the patch below.

    headers: smp_lock.h redux

    * Remove smp_lock.h from files which don't need it (including some headers!)
    * Add smp_lock.h to files which do need it
    * Make smp_lock.h include conditional in hardirq.h
      It's needed only for one kernel_locked() usage which is under CONFIG_PREEMPT

      This will make hardirq.h inclusion cheaper for every PREEMPT=n config
      (which includes allmodconfig/allyesconfig, BTW)

V4L/pwc - use usb_interface as parent, not usb_device

2009-06-04T19:18:13+00:00

From: Lennart Poettering 

The current code creates a sysfs device path where the video4linux
device is child of the usb device itself instead of the interface it
belongs to. That is evil and confuses udev.

This patch does basically the same thing as Kay's similar patch for the
ov511 driver:

v4l: generate KEY_CAMERA instead of BTN_0 key events on input devices

2009-06-11T14:19:33+00:00

From: Lennart Poettering 

A bunch of V4L drivers generate BTN_0 instead of KEY_CAMERA key presses.

X11 is able to handle KEY_CAMERA automatically these days while BTN_0 is
not treated at all.  Thus it would be of big benefit if the camera drivers
would consistently generate KEY_CAMERA.  Some drivers (uvc) already do,
this patch updates the remaining drivers to do the same.

I only possess a limited set of webcams, so this isn't tested with all
cameras.  The patch is rather trivial and compile tested, so I'd say it's
still good enough to get merged.

pwc : fix LED and power setup for first open

2009-03-09T23:16:00+00:00

From: Martin Fuzzey 

Call pwc_construct before trying to talk to device to obtain vc interface so
that LED and power setup works the first time the video device is opened.
