This too makes me thing that we should *really* move this to userspace. It will but much easier to implement clock domain translation there, with a better precision. > Tested-by: HungNien Chen <hn.chen@sunplusit.com> > Signed-off-by: Ricardo Ribalda <ribalda@chromium.org> > --- > drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_video.c | 12 ++++++++++-- > 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_video.c b/drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_video.c > index 75c32e232f5d..7c6448c6d706 100644 > --- a/drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_video.c > +++ b/drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_video.c > @@ -742,10 +742,10 @@ void uvc_video_clock_update(struct uvc_streaming *stream, > > spin_lock_irqsave(&clock->lock, flags); > > - if (clock->count < clock->size) > + if (clock->count < 2) > goto done; > > - first = &clock->samples[clock->head]; > + first = &clock->samples[(clock->head - clock->count) % clock->size]; > last = &clock->samples[(clock->head - 1) % clock->size]; > > /* First step, PTS to SOF conversion. */ > @@ -760,6 +760,14 @@ void uvc_video_clock_update(struct uvc_streaming *stream, > if (y2 < y1) > y2 += 2048 << 16; > > + /* > + * Have at least 1/4 of a second of timestamps before we > + * try to do any calculation.
