Hello,

first of all, I hope this is the correct destination and submission format for 
this type of patch as this is my first contribution here.

I have developed some modifications to the 2.6.37 DVB frontend code to support 
DVB satellite channel routing (aka "SCR", "Unicable", "EN50494"). Following 
this standard, all satellite tuners share the same cable and each of them has a 
fixed intermediate frequency it is supposed to tune to. Zapping is done by 
sending a special DiSEqC message while SEC voltage is temporarily pulled from 
14 to 18 volts. This message includes the tuner's ID from 0 to 7, the 
frequency, band and polarisation to tune to as well as one out of two satellite 
positions.

I decided this should be supported by the kernel frontend code as it is 
impossible to send that special DiSEqC / voltage sequence from userspace. 
Additionally, it adds fully transparent support for SCR to arbitrary 
applications that use the DVB API, such as MythTV, VDR, xine etc.

I added an ioctl command and chose command ID 120, so it does not conflict with 
other patches. As far as I can see, any number above 83 should work, so you 
might want to change this in "dvb_frontend.c" if you decide to accept the 
patch. By default, all SCR-code is disabled and the frontend works as usual. 
You can use the new ioctl command to set up SCR parameters for each tuner. 
Afterwards, all commands to set up SEC or frequency parameters are intercepted 
and their values are stored to a new struct inside both the private frontend 
parameters and DTV cache. This struct is also bidirectionally synced between 
"private frontend parameters" and dtv_cache along with existing parameters. 
Before actually tuning the frontend, the tuning frequency will be set to the 
fixed SCR frequency and the DiSEqC message is generated instead of directly 
tuning to the requested frequency.

All modifications do compile without warnings and work flawlessly on my Core2 
Duo (using AMD64-SMP) with Hauppauge Nova-S and Nova-SE2 (budget, s5h1420, 
cx88_dvb, cx24123).
My DVB source is an "Inverto IDLB-QUDL41-UNI2L-1PP" Unicable LNB.

Below I paste the kernel patch as well as an example userspace utility to use 
the code as the linuxtv-wiki says MIME-attachments are undesired. If anything 
else is required, please contact me.

Regards,
Thomas Schlöter
