Drivers often need to associate pipeline objects to entities, and to take stream state into account when configuring entities and links. The pipeline API helps drivers manage that information. When starting streaming, drivers call media_entity_pipeline_start(). The function marks all entities connected to the given entity through enabled links, either directly or indirectly, as streaming. Similarly, when stopping the stream, drivers call media_entity_pipeline_stop(). The media_entity_pipeline_start() function takes a pointer to a media pipeline and stores it in every entity in the graph. Drivers should embed the media_pipeline structure in higher-level pipeline structures and can then access the pipeline through the media_entity structure. Link configuration will fail with -EBUSY by default if either end of the link is a streaming entity, unless the link is marked with the MEDIA_LNK_FL_DYNAMIC flag.

|
|
|
<para>To enumerate pads and/or links for a given entity, applications set
|
|
the entity field of a &media-links-enum; structure and initialize the
|
|
&media-pad-desc; and &media-link-desc; structure arrays pointed by the
|
|
<structfield>pads</structfield> and <structfield>links</structfield> fields.
|
|
They then call the MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_LINKS ioctl with a pointer to this
|
|
structure.</para>
|
|
<para>If the <structfield>pads</structfield> field is not NULL, the driver
|
|
fills the <structfield>pads</structfield> array with information about the
|
|
entity's pads. The array must have enough room to store all the entity's
|
|
pads. The number of pads can be retrieved with the &MEDIA-IOC-ENUM-ENTITIES;
|
|
ioctl.</para>
|
|
<para>If the <structfield>links</structfield> field is not NULL, the driver
|
|
fills the <structfield>links</structfield> array with information about the
|
|
entity's outbound links. The array must have enough room to store all the
|
|
entity's outbound links. The number of outbound links can be retrieved with
|
|
the &MEDIA-IOC-ENUM-ENTITIES; ioctl.</para>
|
|
<para>Only forward links that originate at one of the entity's source pads
|
|
are returned during the enumeration process.</para>
