From 7662b00c378fe638e84a853418cd833303fc050c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicola Soranzo Date: Thu, 19 Feb 2009 13:41:56 -0300 Subject: [PATCH 1/5] V4L/DVB (10659): em28xx: register device to soundcard for sysfs As explained in "Writing an ALSA driver" (T. Iwai), audio drivers should set the struct device for the card before registering the card instance. This will add the correct /sys/class/sound/cardN/device symlink, so HAL can see the device and ConsoleKit sets its ACL permissions for the logged-in user. For em28xx audio capture cards found e.g. in Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-900 (R2), this patch fixes errors like: ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1429:(_snd_pcm_hw_open) Invalid value for card Error opening audio: Permission denied when running mplayer as a normal user.

There seems to be a problem on the interfaces or even inside the flexcop-device that can't handle interruption on the streaming interface. This patch adds a watchdog to check whether data is supposed to come in (streaming PIDs are requested) and if no data is seen within 400ms (default) it resets the streaming/pid-filtering hardware. This patch is urgently needed to support the rev 2.8 of the hardware and solves problem occassionally seen on older hardware.

That's why: - - When PID filtering is activated, the timer IRQ is used. Every 1.97 ms the IRQ - is triggered. Is the current write address of DMA1 different to the one - during the last IRQ, then the data is passed to the demuxer. - - There is an additional DMA-IRQ-method: packet count IRQ. This isn't - implemented correctly yet. - - The solution is to disable HW PID filtering, but I don't know how the DVB - API software demux behaves on slow systems with 45MBit/s TS. - -Solved bugs :) --------------- -1g) pid-filtering (somehow pid index 4 and 5 (EMM_PID and ECM_PID) aren't -working) -SOLUTION: also index 0 was affected, because net_translation is done for -these indexes by default - -5b) isochronous transfer does only work in the first attempt (for the Sky2PC -USB, Air2PC is working) SOLUTION: the flexcop was going asleep and never really -woke up again (don't know if this need fixes, see -flexcop-fe-tuner.c:flexcop_sleep) - -NEWS: when the driver is loaded and unloaded and loaded again (w/o doing -anything in the while the driver is loaded the first time), no transfers take -place anymore. - -Improvements when rewriting (refactoring) is done -================================================= - -- split sleeping of the flexcop (misc_204.ACPI3_sig = 1;) from lnb_control - (enable sleeping for other demods than dvb-s) -- add support for CableStar (stv0297 Microtune 203x/ALPS) (almost done, incompatibilities with the Nexus-CA) - -Debugging ---------- -- add verbose debugging to skystar2.c (dump the reg_dw_data) and compare it - with this flexcop, this is important, because i2c is now using the - flexcop_ibi_value union from flexcop-reg.h (do you have a better idea for - that, please tell us so). - -Everything which is identical in the following table, can be put into a common -flexcop-module. - - PCI USB -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Different: -Register access: accessing IO memory USB control message -I2C bus: I2C bus of the FC USB control message -Data transfer: DMA isochronous transfer -EEPROM transfer: through i2c bus not clear yet - -Identical: -Streaming: accessing registers -PID Filtering: accessing registers -Sram destinations: accessing registers -Tuner/Demod: I2C bus -DVB-stuff: can be written for common use - -Acknowledgements (just for the rewriting part) -================ - -Bjarne Steinsbo thought a lot in the first place of the pci part for this code -sharing idea. - -Andreas Oberritter for providing a recent PCI initialization template -(pluto2.c). - -Boleslaw Ciesielski for pointing out a problem with firmware loader. - -Vadim Catana for correcting the USB transfer. - -comments, critics and ideas to linux-dvb@linuxtv.org.
