.Nm meteor
.Nd "video capture driver interface"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
driver defined a video capture interface.
The
.Nm
driver is no longer in the tree, but other devices support this interface
so the interface portion is documented here.
.Ss Meteor Capture Modes
The
.Nm
capture driver has three modes of capture operation.
.Bl -enum
.It
Conventional
.Xr read 2
interface.
.Pp
This mode is the easiest and slowest to use.
This mode is great for
capturing a single field at little programming cost.
.Pp
In this mode, the user opens the device, sets the capture mode
and size (see:
.Dv METEORSETGEO
.Xr ioctl 2
call), and uses the
.Xr read 2
system
call to load the data into a buffer.

}
close(o);
exit(0);
}
.Ed
.It
Memory mapped single capture or unsynchronized continuous capture.
.Pp
The single capture mode is designed for conferencing tools such as
.Nm nv .
These tools need to control the starting of the image capture and also
need several frames a second.
The continuous capture mode is designed
for applications that want free-running data.
.Pp
In this mode, the user opens the device, sets the capture mode
and size (see:
.Dv METEORSETGEO
.Xr ioctl 2
call),
.Xr mmap 2 Ns s
the frame buffer
memory into the user process space, and issues either the
single-capture or the continuous capture call (see:
.Dv METEORCAPTUR
.Xr ioctl 2
call) to load the data into the memory mapped buffer.
.Pp
As explained in the
.Dv METEORCAPTUR
.Xr ioctl 2
call, the single frame capture
.Xr ioctl 2
will block until the capture is complete, the continuous capture
will return immediately.

.Ed
.It
Memory mapped, multi-frame ring buffer synchronize capture.
.Pp
This continuous capture mode is synchronized with the application that
processes up to 32 frames.
This gives the advantages of both single and
continuous capture modes.
.Pp
The kernel notifies the application of a new data by raising an
application defined signal.
The driver also shares a structure with
the application that allows them to communicate which frame has been
written by the kernel and which frame has been read by the application.
.Pp
The shared structure starts on the first page after your data.
The
structure address can be found by calculation:
.Pp
.Dl "(number_rows * number_columns * pixel_depth + 4095) & 0xfffff000"
or
.Dl "((number_rows * number_columns * pixel_depth + 4095)/4096) * 4096"
.Pp
The shared structure is of type
.Va struct meteor_mem .
The two most
important fields are called
.Va active
and
.Va num_active_buf .
.Va active
is a bitmap of frames written by the kernel.
.Va num_active_bufs
is
a count of frames marked in the
.Va active
field.
When a frame is read
in by the driver, the
.Va num_active_bufs
count is tested, if this
count is below the threshold of number of active frames (value
in
.Va meteor_mem Ns 's
.Va hiwat
variable), the bit representing frame
number in the buffer is stored in the
.Va active
variable, the
.Va num_active_bufs
is incremented, the kernel then raises the specified
signal to activate the user application.
The user application's
responsibility when getting the signal is to check the active bitmap
to determine the lowest active frame, use the data as the application
desires, clear the bitmap entry for that frame, and decrement the
.Va num_active_bufs .
If the threshold of number of active frames
.Pq Va hiwat
has been exceeded, no new frames or signal from the kernel will occur
until the
.Va num_active_bufs
is less than or equal to
.Va lowat .
.Pp
The driver loads the frames in a round-robin fashion.
It is expected
that the user removes them in the same order.
The driver does not
check to see if the frame is already active.
.Pp
The
.Va frame_size
and number of frames in the buffer are also provided
to the
.Va meteor_mem
structure, but changing these fields in the
application will not change the operation of the driver.
.Pp
In programming for this mode, the user opens the device, sets the
geometry,
.Xr mmap 2 Ns s
the data/common control structure, then starts the
continuous capture mode.
A special signal catcher is required to
process the frames as they are read by the kernel.
.Pp
When specifying the geometry (see:
.Dv METEORSETGEO
.Xr ioctl 2
call),
it
is important that the number of frames is set greater than 1.

.Ss Meteor IOCTL Call and Parameters
The
.Nm
capture driver has
.Xr ioctl 2
requests for capturing, reading card
status, for setting and reading the geometry, and for setting and reading the
attributes.
.Pp
.Bf -symbolic
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO CHECK FOR ERRORS ON THESE RETURNING IOCTLs.
.Ef
Errors indicate that something is very wrong with the
.Xr ioctl 2
and the
application should not attempt to proceed further with capturing.
The
.Nm
capture driver still makes attempts to stop the next capture step if
an error occurred in a previous step but was ignored by the application
programmer.
.Bl -enum
.It
.Xr ioctl 2
requests
.Dv METEORSETGEO
and
.Dv METEORGETGEO
.Pp
.Dv METEORSETGEO
and
.Dv METEORGETGEO
are used to set and read the input
size, input device, and output format for frame capture.
.Pp
These
.Xr ioctl 2
routines use the
.Va meteor_geomet
structure that has the
following entries:
.Bl -tag -width columns
.It Va rows
number of rows (lines high) in output image
.It Va columns
number of pixels in a row (width) in output image
.It Va frames
number of frames in buffer.
Should be 1, unless using
the multi-framed synchronous capture mode
.Pq Dv METEORCAPFRM
which REQUIRES frames to be larger than 1.
.Pp
Note: if
.Va rows , columns
or
.Va frames
is not changed, then
the existing values are used.
The system defaults
is 640x480x1.
.It Va oformat
you may choose one of the following output format:
.Bl -tag -width METEOR_GEO_YUV_PACKED
.It Dv METEOR_GEO_RGB16
(RGB 16 bits xrrrrrgg gggbbbbb default)
.It Dv METEOR_GEO_RGB24
(RGB 24 bits packed in 32 bits:

.It Dv METEOR_GEO_YUV_PACKED
(4-2-2 YUV 16 bits packed byte format:

rows * column / 4 bytes of even u
rows * column / 4 bytes of even v
rows * column / 4 bytes of odd u
rows * column / 4 bytes of odd v)
.El
.El
.Pp
The
.Dv METEORSETGEO
.Xr ioctl 2
will fail if more than one entry from a category
is selected.
It is highly recommended that a
.Dv METEORSETGEO
is done
before capturing data because you cannot guarantee the initial mode
the card.
.Pp
The
.Dv METEORSETGEO
will also attempt to reallocate a new contiguous
kernel buffer if the new geometry exceeds the old geometry.
On the
other hand, if the new geometry will fit in the existing buffer,
the existing buffer is used.
.Pp
If
.Dv METEORSETGEO
fails the

.Pp
The single frame capture
.Xr ioctl 2
request will return only after a
frame has been captured and transferred to the frame buffer.
.Pp
The unsynchronized continuous capture will return immediately and
data is directly deposited into the buffer when it is available.
Since this is unsynchronized, it is possible the data is being
written by the kernel while being read by the application.

if the count is larger
than

the driver will not store any new frames and will not
