Subject: [PATCH] Missing v4l2_prio_close in radio_release
Date: Fri, 2 Jan 2009 06:41:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090102064100.2e27464e@laptop.hypervisor.org> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 846 bytes --]

The radio_release function of the BTTV driver is missing a call to
v4l2_prio_close. As a result, after the radio device has been opened at
least once (e.g., by HAL during bootup), v4l2_priority will never drop below
V4L2_PRIORITY_INTERACTIVE again. With the following patch against 2.6.28,
applications that run with V4L2_PRIORITY_BACKGROUND are able to open devices
again. Previous Linux versions are affected as well.
