    V4L/DVB: gspca_xirlink_cit: New gspca subdriver replacing v4l1 usbvideo/ibmcam.c · 1f33de0f
    Hans de Goede authored
    The old usbvideo ibmcam driver needs to be replaced with a v4l2 driver
    preferably using the gspca webcam framework rather then the old usbvideo
    framework.
    
    This new gspca sub driver sets a first step in that direction. The ibmcam
    driver supports 4 different model webcams. This new driver (for now) only
    supports Model 3 cameras, as my test cam is a Model 3 cam, or so I thought.
    
    Upon reading:
    http://www.linux-usb.org/ibmcam/
    I learned that the IBM Netcamera Pro I have even though having the same
    usb id and the same bcd version is different from the Model 3 cameras
    supported by the ibmcam driver. So this new gscpa subdriver supports Model 3
    cameras (untested), and the IBM Netcamera Pro. Currently use with the
    IBM Netcamera Pro requires a module parameter. I hope to be able to
    autodetect which is which in the future.
