The UVC specification requires unit and terminal IDs to be unique, and uses the ID to reference entities: - In control requests, to identify the target entity - In the UVC units and terminals descriptors' bSourceID field, to identify source entities - In the UVC input header descriptor's bTerminalLink, to identify the terminal associated with a streaming interface Entity ID collisions break accessing controls and make the graph description in the UVC descriptors ambiguous. However, collisions where one of the entities is a streaming output terminal and the other entity is not a streaming terminal are less severe. Streaming output terminals have no controls, and, as they are the final entity in pipelines, they are never referenced in descriptors as source entities. They are referenced by ID only from innput header descriptors, which by definition only reference streaming terminals. For these reasons, we can work around the collision by giving streaming output terminals their own ID namespace. Do so by setting bit UVC_TERM_OUTPUT (15) in the uvc_entity.id field, which is normally never set as the ID is a 8-bit value. This ID change doesn't affect the entity name in the media controller graph as the name isn't constructed from the ID, so there should not be any impact on the uAPI. Although this change handles some ID collisions automagically, keep printing an error in uvc_alloc_new_entity() when a camera has invalid descriptors. Hopefully this message will help vendors fix their invalid descriptors. This new method of handling ID collisions includes a revert of commit 758dbc756aad ("media: uvcvideo: Use heuristic to find stream entity") that attempted to fix the problem urgently due to regression reports.
