+ * return ERR_PTR() on failure or a pointer to allocator private,
+ * per-buffer data on success; the returned private structure
+ * will then be passed as @buf_priv argument to other ops in this
+ * structure. The size argument to this function shall be
+ * *page aligned*.
+ * @put: inform the allocator that the buffer will no longer be used;
+ * usually will result in the allocator freeing the buffer (if
+ * no other users of this buffer are present); the @buf_priv
+ * argument is the allocator private per-buffer structure
+ * previously returned from the alloc callback.
+ * @get_dmabuf: acquire userspace memory for a hardware operation; used for
+ * DMABUF memory types.
+ * @get_userptr: acquire userspace memory for a hardware operation; used for
+ * USERPTR memory types; vaddr is the address passed to the
+ * videobuf2 layer when queuing a video buffer of USERPTR type;
+ * should return an allocator private per-buffer structure
+ * associated with the buffer on success, ERR_PTR() on failure;
+ * the returned private structure will then be passed as @buf_priv
+ * argument to other ops in this structure.
+ * @put_userptr: inform the allocator that a USERPTR buffer will no longer
+ * be used.
+ * @attach_dmabuf: attach a shared &struct dma_buf for a hardware operation;
+ * used for DMABUF memory types; dev is the alloc device
+ * dbuf is the shared dma_buf; returns ERR_PTR() on failure;
+ * allocator private per-buffer structure on success;
+ * this needs to be used for further accesses to the buffer.
+ * @detach_dmabuf: inform the exporter of the buffer that the current DMABUF
+ * buffer is no longer used; the @buf_priv argument is the
+ * allocator private per-buffer structure previously returned
+ * from the attach_dmabuf callback.
+ * @map_dmabuf: request for access to the dmabuf from allocator; the allocator
+ * of dmabuf is informed that this driver is going to use the
+ * dmabuf.
+ * @unmap_dmabuf: releases access control to the dmabuf - allocator is notified
+ * that this driver is done using the dmabuf for now.
+ * @prepare: called every time the buffer is passed from userspace to the
+ * driver, useful for cache synchronisation, optional.
+ * @finish: called every time the buffer is passed back from the driver
+ * to the userspace, also optional.
+ * @vaddr: return a kernel virtual address to a given memory buffer
+ * associated with the passed private structure or NULL if no
+ * such mapping exists.
+ * @cookie: return allocator specific cookie for a given memory buffer
+ * associated with the passed private structure or NULL if not
+ * available.
+ * @num_users: return the current number of users of a memory buffer;
+ * return 1 if the videobuf2 layer (or actually the driver using
+ * it) is the only user.
+ * @mmap: setup a userspace mapping for a given memory buffer under
+ * the provided virtual memory region.
+ *
+ * Those operations are used by the videobuf2 core to implement the memory
+ * handling/memory allocators for each type of supported streaming I/O method.

+ * These operations are not called from interrupt context except where

+ *
+ * @queue_setup: called from VIDIOC_REQBUFS() and VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS()
+ * handlers before memory allocation. It can be called
+ * twice: if the original number of requested buffers
+ * could not be allocated, then it will be called a
+ * second time with the actually allocated number of
+ * buffers to verify if that is OK.
+ * The driver should return the required number of buffers
+ * in \*num_buffers, the required number of planes per
+ * buffer in \*num_planes, the size of each plane should be
+ * set in the sizes\[\] array and optional per-plane
+ * allocator specific device in the alloc_devs\[\] array.
+ * When called from VIDIOC_REQBUFS(), \*num_planes == 0,
+ * the driver has to use the currently configured format to
+ * determine the plane sizes and \*num_buffers is the total
+ * number of buffers that are being allocated. When called
+ * from VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS(), \*num_planes != 0 and it
+ * describes the requested number of planes and sizes\[\]
+ * contains the requested plane sizes. In this case
+ * \*num_buffers are being allocated additionally to
+ * q->num_buffers. If either \*num_planes or the requested
+ * sizes are invalid callback must return %-EINVAL.
+ * @wait_prepare: release any locks taken while calling vb2 functions;
+ * it is called before an ioctl needs to wait for a new
+ * buffer to arrive; required to avoid a deadlock in
+ * blocking access type.
+ * @wait_finish: reacquire all locks released in the previous callback;
+ * required to continue operation after sleeping while
+ * waiting for a new buffer to arrive.
+ * @buf_out_validate: called when the output buffer is prepared or queued
+ * to a request; drivers can use this to validate
+ * userspace-provided information; this is required only
+ * for OUTPUT queues.
+ * @buf_init: called once after allocating a buffer (in MMAP case)
+ * or after acquiring a new USERPTR buffer; drivers may
+ * perform additional buffer-related initialization;
+ * initialization failure (return != 0) will prevent
+ * queue setup from completing successfully; optional.
+ * @buf_prepare: called every time the buffer is queued from userspace
+ * and from the VIDIOC_PREPARE_BUF() ioctl; drivers may
+ * perform any initialization required before each
+ * hardware operation in this callback; drivers can
+ * access/modify the buffer here as it is still synced for
+ * the CPU; drivers that support VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS() must
+ * also validate the buffer size; if an error is returned,
+ * the buffer will not be queued in driver; optional.
+ * @buf_finish: called before every dequeue of the buffer back to
+ * userspace; the buffer is synced for the CPU, so drivers
+ * can access/modify the buffer contents; drivers may
+ * perform any operations required before userspace
+ * accesses the buffer; optional. The buffer state can be
+ * one of the following: %DONE and %ERROR occur while
+ * streaming is in progress, and the %PREPARED state occurs
+ * when the queue has been canceled and all pending
+ * buffers are being returned to their default %DEQUEUED
+ * state. Typically you only have to do something if the
+ * state is %VB2_BUF_STATE_DONE, since in all other cases
+ * the buffer contents will be ignored anyway.
+ * @buf_cleanup: called once before the buffer is freed; drivers may
+ * perform any additional cleanup; optional.
+ * @start_streaming: called once to enter 'streaming' state; the driver may
+ * receive buffers with @buf_queue callback
+ * before @start_streaming is called; the driver gets the
+ * number of already queued buffers in count parameter;
+ * driver can return an error if hardware fails, in that
+ * case all buffers that have been already given by
+ * the @buf_queue callback are to be returned by the driver
+ * by calling vb2_buffer_done() with %VB2_BUF_STATE_QUEUED.
+ * If you need a minimum number of buffers before you can
+ * start streaming, then set
+ * &vb2_queue->min_buffers_needed. If that is non-zero
+ * then @start_streaming won't be called until at least
+ * that many buffers have been queued up by userspace.
+ * @stop_streaming: called when 'streaming' state must be disabled; driver
+ * should stop any DMA transactions or wait until they
+ * finish and give back all buffers it got from &buf_queue
+ * callback by calling vb2_buffer_done() with either
+ * %VB2_BUF_STATE_DONE or %VB2_BUF_STATE_ERROR; may use
+ * vb2_wait_for_all_buffers() function
+ * @buf_queue: passes buffer vb to the driver; driver may start
+ * hardware operation on this buffer; driver should give
+ * the buffer back by calling vb2_buffer_done() function;
+ * it is always called after calling VIDIOC_STREAMON()
+ * ioctl; might be called before @start_streaming callback
+ * if user pre-queued buffers before calling
+ * VIDIOC_STREAMON().
+ * @buf_request_complete: a buffer that was never queued to the driver but is

+ * If this is 1, then you cannot queue buffers from a request.
+ * @uses_requests: requests are used for this queue. Set to 1 the first time

+ * If this is 1, then you cannot queue buffers directly.
+ * @allow_cache_hints: when set user-space can pass cache management hints in
+ * order to skip cache flush/invalidation on ->prepare() or/and

+ * @non_coherent_mem: when set queue will attempt to allocate buffers using
+ * non-coherent memory.
