Documentation / ABI / removed / raw1394_legacy_isochronous


Based on kernel version 2.6.36. Page generated on 2010-10-22 13:20 EST.

1	What:		legacy isochronous ABI of raw1394 (1st generation iso ABI)
2	Date:		June 2007 (scheduled), removed in kernel v2.6.23
3	Contact:	linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
4	Description:
5		The two request types RAW1394_REQ_ISO_SEND, RAW1394_REQ_ISO_LISTEN have
6		been deprecated for quite some time.  They are very inefficient as they
7		come with high interrupt load and several layers of callbacks for each
8		packet.  Because of these deficiencies, the video1394 and dv1394 drivers
9		and the 3rd-generation isochronous ABI in raw1394 (rawiso) were created.

11	Users:
12		libraw1394 users via the long deprecated API raw1394_iso_write,
13		raw1394_start_iso_write, raw1394_start_iso_rcv, raw1394_stop_iso_rcv
14	
15		libdc1394, which optionally uses these old libraw1394 calls
16		alternatively to the more efficient video1394 ABI
