+    <para>Media devices increasingly handle multiple related functions. Many USB
+    cameras include microphones, video capture hardware can also output video,
+    or SoC camera interfaces also perform memory-to-memory operations similar to
+    video codecs.</para>
+    <para>Independent functions, even when implemented in the same hardware, can
+    be modelled as separate devices. A USB camera with a microphone will be
+    presented to userspace applications as V4L2 and ALSA capture devices. The
+    devices' relationships (when using a webcam, end-users shouldn't have to
+    manually select the associated USB microphone), while not made available
+    directly to applications by the drivers, can usually be retrieved from
+    sysfs.</para>
+    <para>With more and more advanced SoC devices being introduced, the current
+    approach will not scale. Device topologies are getting increasingly complex
+    and can't always be represented by a tree structure. Hardware blocks are
+    shared between different functions, creating dependencies between seemingly
+    unrelated devices.</para>
+    <para>Kernel abstraction APIs such as V4L2 and ALSA provide means for
+    applications to access hardware parameters. As newer hardware expose an
+    increasingly high number of those parameters, drivers need to guess what
+    applications really require based on limited information, thereby
+    implementing policies that belong to userspace.</para>
+    <para>The media controller API aims at solving those problems.</para>

+    <title>Media device model</title>
+    <para>Discovering a device internal topology, and configuring it at runtime,
+    is one of the goals of the media controller API. To achieve this, hardware
+    devices are modelled as an oriented graph of building blocks called entities
+    connected through pads.</para>
+    <para>An entity is a basic media hardware or software building block. It can
+    correspond to a large variety of logical blocks such as physical hardware
+    devices (CMOS sensor for instance), logical hardware devices (a building
+    block in a System-on-Chip image processing pipeline), DMA channels or
+    physical connectors.</para>
+    <para>A pad is a connection endpoint through which an entity can interact
+    with other entities. Data (not restricted to video) produced by an entity
+    flows from the entity's output to one or more entity inputs. Pads should not
+    be confused with physical pins at chip boundaries.</para>
+    <para>A link is a point-to-point oriented connection between two pads,
+    either on the same entity or on different entities. Data flows from a source
+    pad to a sink pad.</para>
