Introduce lirc scancode mode, use that to port lirc_zilog to rc-core using that interface, and then remove the lirc kernel api.
In summary: - This removes the lirc staging directory. - lirc IR TX can use in-kernel encoders for scancode encoding - lirc_zilog uses the same interface - lirc kapi (not uapi!) is gone - The reading lirc scancode gives more information (e.g. protocol, toggle, repeat). So you can determine what protocol variant a remotes uses - Line count is actually down and code cleaner (imo) v2: - Add MAINTAINERS entries - Fixes for nec repeat - Validate scancode for tx - Minor bugfixes v3: - Review comments from Hans Verkuil - Documented and fixed rc_validate_scancode() - Fix a bug in kfifo on arm 32-bit - this inferface won't be used for cec remote control passthrough Sean Young (26): media: lirc: implement scancode sending media: lirc: use the correct carrier for scancode transmit media: rc: auto load encoder if necessary media: lirc_zilog: remove receiver media: lirc_zilog: fix variable types and other ugliness media: lirc_zilog: port to rc-core using scancode tx interface media: promote lirc_zilog out of staging media: lirc: remove LIRCCODE and LIRC_GET_LENGTH media: lirc: lirc interface should not be a raw decoder media: lirc: validate scancode for transmit media: rc: document and fix rc_validate_scancode() media: lirc: merge lirc_dev_fop_ioctl and ir_lirc_ioctl media: lirc: use kfifo rather than lirc_buffer for raw IR media: lirc: move lirc_dev->attached to rc_dev->registered media: lirc: do not call rc_close() on unregistered devices media: lirc: create rc-core open and close lirc functions media: lirc: remove name from lirc_dev media: lirc: remove last remnants of lirc kapi media: lirc: implement reading scancode media: rc: ensure lirc device receives nec repeats media: lirc: document LIRC_MODE_SCANCODE media: lirc: introduce LIRC_SET_POLL_MODES media: lirc: scancode rc devices should have a lirc device too media: MAINTAINERS: remove lirc staging area media: MAINTAINERS: add entry for zilog_ir kfifo: DECLARE_KIFO_PTR(fifo, u64) does not work on arm 32 bit Documentation/media/kapi/rc-core.rst | 5 - Documentation/media/lirc.h.rst.exceptions | 31 + Documentation/media/uapi/rc/lirc-dev-intro.rst | 68 +- Documentation/media/uapi/rc/lirc-func.rst | 2 +- Documentation/media/uapi/rc/lirc-get-features.rst | 17 +- Documentation/media/uapi/rc/lirc-get-length.rst | 44 - Documentation/media/uapi/rc/lirc-get-rec-mode.rst | 5 +- Documentation/media/uapi/rc/lirc-get-send-mode.rst | 2 +- Documentation/media/uapi/rc/lirc-read.rst | 15 +- .../media/uapi/rc/lirc-set-poll-modes.rst | 52 + Documentation/media/uapi/rc/lirc-write.rst | 19 +- MAINTAINERS | 12 +- drivers/media/rc/Kconfig | 41 +- drivers/media/rc/Makefile | 6 +- drivers/media/rc/ir-jvc-decoder.c | 1 + drivers/media/rc/ir-lirc-codec.c | 566 ++++--- drivers/media/rc/ir-mce_kbd-decoder.c | 12 +- drivers/media/rc/ir-nec-decoder.c | 1 + drivers/media/rc/ir-rc5-decoder.c | 1 + drivers/media/rc/ir-rc6-decoder.c | 1 + drivers/media/rc/ir-sanyo-decoder.c | 1 + drivers/media/rc/ir-sharp-decoder.c | 1 + drivers/media/rc/ir-sony-decoder.c | 1 + drivers/media/rc/lirc_dev.c | 489 +----- drivers/media/rc/rc-core-priv.h | 54 +- drivers/media/rc/rc-ir-raw.c | 56 +- drivers/media/rc/rc-main.c | 166 +- drivers/media/rc/zilog_ir.c | 742 +++++++++ drivers/staging/media/Kconfig | 3 - drivers/staging/media/Makefile | 1 - drivers/staging/media/lirc/Kconfig | 21 - drivers/staging/media/lirc/Makefile | 6 - drivers/staging/media/lirc/TODO | 36 - drivers/staging/media/lirc/lirc_zilog.c | 1653 -------------------- include/linux/kfifo.h | 3 +- include/media/lirc_dev.h | 192 --- include/media/rc-core.h | 55 +- include/media/rc-map.h | 54 +- include/uapi/linux/lirc.h | 91 ++ 39 files changed, 1734 insertions(+), 2792 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 Documentation/media/uapi/rc/lirc-get-length.rst create mode 100644 Documentation/media/uapi/rc/lirc-set-poll-modes.rst create mode 100644 drivers/media/rc/zilog_ir.c delete mode 100644 drivers/staging/media/lirc/Kconfig delete mode 100644 drivers/staging/media/lirc/Makefile delete mode 100644 drivers/staging/media/lirc/TODO delete mode 100644 drivers/staging/media/lirc/lirc_zilog.c delete mode 100644 include/media/lirc_dev.h -- 2.13.6
