 The more important one is what kind of IR interfaces a V4L2
 device will open to lirc.
   
I was thinking a lirc-v4l2-subdev plugin for lirc-dev.  If the
v4l2_subdev_ir_ops interface aligned or can easily translate to
supporting things LIRC needed, then follow on support for all video
related IR devices would fall out from implementing the
v4l2_subdev_ir_ops interface.  (In my optimistic version of the
future ;] ).
  
   This won't work, due to two reasons:
  
   1) a subdev interface works for the devices with i2c interfaces (e.
   g. the subdev's), but it won't work on other cases;
 
  Subdev is actually independent of i2c, that was the one of the reasons
  for making v4l2_subdev in the first place. Both the cx18 and ivtv
  drivers use a non-i2c subdev in fact. It does rely on there being a
  parent v4l2_device struct with which it will be registered. In other
  words: while there may be good reasons for not using v4l2_subdev, this
  reason isn't one of them.

 See bellow.

   2) even when you'll have this at i2c, you may still need to properly
   lock the IR code to avoid that the IR operation to happen in the
   middle of another i2c transfer.
 
  I could well be wrong, but isn't the i2c_adapter already locking at the
  bus level?

 It won't lock. The issue is outside i2c code. Probably you haven't seen
 the code I've posted on my previous email. Lirc does 2 separate
 transfers, one for send and another for receive:

 i2c_master_send(ir-c, keybuf, 1);
 /* poll IR chip */
 if (i2c_master_recv(ir-c, keybuf, sizeof(keybuf)) !=
 sizeof(keybuf)) { dprintk(read error\n);
 return -EIO;
 }

 Between the two independent transactions, an ioctl or a kernel thread may
 happen doing some stuff at i2c. You'll then have an i2c send where an i2c
 receive operation were expected to happen. This is known to cause some
 problems with some i2c implementations on some chips, including some
 eeprom's.

 In this specific case, one possible solution could be to replace them by
 i2c_master_xfer().

   See above. This should be unified outside subdev, since, on most
   cases, the IR is handled directly by the bridge code. Another
   alternative would be to create a fake subdev for the IR handling
   code, but, IMHO, such change will be large and I don't see much gain
   on doing it. Also, since on several cases it shares the bridge IRQ
   code, the IR handling code will be broken on just a layer interface
   at the subdev, but the real work will be handled at the bridge
   driver.
 
  It is a perfectly legitimate approach to use a subdev for IR handling.
  Usually it is some separate set of registers or IC block anyway,
  whether it is a bridge driver or a complex chip like cx2584x.

 No. Having a different sets of register for IR is generally the
 exception. I guess that, on 80-90% of the cases, it uses the same GPIO
 set of registers used by other parts of the driver. Just taking a few
 real examples: almost all bttv and cx88 are based on GPIO poll; on
 saa7134, just a few uses i2c. The great majority has a mix of GPIO poll
 or GPIO IRQ. If you take a look at the IRQ code, it is the same code used
 also by videobuf. On em28xx, you have 3 types: i2c, GPIO poll (mostly on
 devices with em282x and em284x) and some dedicated IR registers found on
 hardware with em286x/em288x (yet, a few of those devices still uses the
 old strategy).

 Ok, it would be possible to artificially add a layer in order to deal
 with some bits of those common registers differently, and to create an
 IRQ ops abstraction layer for IR but this is overkill. It will just add
 an extra abstraction layer for nothing. It may even interfere at the IR
 protocol handling, as, on those GPIO poll code, extra delays may
 interfere at the decoding, since the processor is responsible for
 measuring the times.

  The v4l2_subdev approach
  allows one to model such things in a relatively high-level manner. Andy
  has experience doing exactly that in the cx18 driver, so he is very
  well placed to investigate which approach is best.

 The v4l2_subdev approach works fine for the communication between a
 bridge driver and their ancillary sub-devices. There's nothing wrong on
 proposing an IR interface for that usage, in the cases where a separate
 IC chip is measuring the time or returning scan codes, like the cases
 where Andy mentioned.

 However, just letting lirc (or any other IR driver) to directly access a
 v4l_subdev without passing it via the bridge driver is risky, since
 bridge cannot protect the shared registers or avoid that another subdev
 call won't be interfered by IR.

 In other words, I'm 

Re: Exposure set bug in stv06xx driver

Hi,

recently.


except exposure and gain still cannot be set
with v4l2ucp.


They can be set if you disable autogain first, just uncheck the checkbox.


As a bonus, I found the autogain white list in
v4l2-apps/libv4l/libv4lconvert/control/libv4lcontrol.c.  Is there a
white list to turn on the gain and exposure manual controls?



This whitelist is to enable software automatic gain + exposure for camera's
which lack this in hardware (or we don't know how to do this), this is not
relevant for the 046d:0840.


While the autogain works great, the autoloss doesn't.  Gain increases
automatically, but is not decreased when light levels rise.


It does, but it is slow when decreasing, give it some time.


Also,
updating the exposure readout in v4l2ucp decreases the exposure about
10% and incorrectly reports an exposure somewhere between the original
level and the changed level.  E.g., click the exposure update button
and the exposure drops from 2 to 18000 and reports 19000.



??? I've not seen any problems like these. Note that the values returned
when reading the controls are cached values of the last value set, not actually
register values. Also the range for exposure is only 0 - 511, where are
you getting values like 18000 - 2 from ? Are you sure you are using the
in kernel gspcav2 stv06xx driver ?


Hmm, you also write:
is there any possibility of enabling autogain? Yet this already is enabled,
does your 046d:0840, perhaps have a different sensor, mine says when plugged
in:
STV06xx: Photobit pb0100 sensor detected

I'm not used to logitech having different camera's with the same usb-id, but you
never know.

Problem:  Overexposure and horizontal orange lines in cam image.
Exposure and gain controls in gqcam and v4l2ucp do not work.  By

can be orange and/or blue, moving or stationary or a fine grid.

Workaround:  Using the tool set_cam_exp, any exposure setting removes
the visual artefacts and reduces the image brightness for a given

I have read that sometimes the problem is not a low signal, but too

Re: How to handle devices sitting on multiple busses ?

2009-08-24 Thread Greg KH
On Mon, Aug 24, 2009 at 01:57:44PM +0200, Laurent Pinchart wrote:
 Hi Greg,
 
 while working on video input support for embedded platforms a few developers 
 including myself ran independently into a Linux device model issue. We all 
 came up with hackish solutions that we are not very happy with, and we'd like 
 to fix this in a clean way.
 
 The problem comes from devices sitting on multiple busses, a situation 
 commonly found with video sensors connected to an embedded System on Chip 
 (SoC). The sensor is controlled through an I2C bus and sends video data on a 
 parallel video bus, connected to a camera controller usually referred as an 
 Image Signal Processor (ISP), Video Processing Front End (VPFE), CCD 
 Controller (CCDC) or simply a bridge.
 
 The bridge and the I2C master controller on the SoC are completely 
 independent 
 from each other. The I2C master controller is not dedicated to the video 
 function and is often used to communication with non-video I2C devices.
 
 Unfortunately, on the sensor side, I2C and video bus are not independent. The 
 I2C slave controller usually requires an external clock to be present, and 
 the 
 clock is usually provided on the video bus by the SoC bridge.
 
 As the bridge and I2C master live their own life in the Linux device tree, 
 they are initialized, suspended, resumed and destroyed independently. The 
 sensor being an I2C slave device, Linux initializes it after the I2C master 
 device is initialized, but doesn't ensure that the bridge is initialized 
 first 
 as well. A similar problem occurs during suspend/resume, as the I2C slave 
 needs to be suspended before and resumed after the video bridge.
 
 Have you ever encountered such a situation before ?

No, not really.

 Is there a clean way for a device to have multiple parents, or do you
 have plans for such a possibility in the future ?

I do not know of any future plans to support something like this in the
driver core code, sorry.

 I would be willing to give an implementation a try if you can provide
 me with some guidelines.

Hm, I really don't know of any guidelines I can provide, as I've never
thought about this before :)

I really don't know what to suggest at the moment, sorry.

This breakage was caused by USB changes introduced in 2.6.27, and it's

 Signed-off-by: Marek Vasut marek.va...@gmail.com

Ok, I see, you rebased your patches on my soc-camera patch-stack, this is 
good, thanks. But you missed a couple of my comments - you still have a 
few static functions in the ov9640.c marked inline: ov9640_set_crop() is 
not used at all, ov9640_set_bus_param() gets assigned to a struct member, 
so, cannot be inline. ov9640_alter_regs() is indeed only called at one 
location, but see Chapter 15 in Documentation/CodingStyle. You left at 
least one multi-line comment wrongly formatted. You left some broken 
printk format lines, etc. You moved your header under drivers/... - that's 
good. But, please, address all my comments that I provided in a private 
review, or explain why you do not agree. Otherwise I feel like I wasted my 
time. Besides, your mailer has wrapped lines. Please, read 
Documentation/email-clients.txt on how to configure your email client to 
send patches properly. In the worst case, you can inline your patches 
while reviewing, and then attach them for a final submission. This is, 
however, discouraged, because it makes review and test of your 
intermediate patches with wrapped lines more difficult. Also, please check 
your patches with scripts/checkpatch.pl.

to our (broken) upstream proccess of using an -hg tree. I used to push also the
devel tree upstream, but, as sometimes I was needing to rebase (less often than
linux-next, but still often), I've dropped it, since rebasing is very bad for
kernel.org mirrors, so I've minimized the problem by just pushing my trees when
I'm about to ask a merge.

 Seems i lose any interest to follow up such further.

 Never allow any guys to go out into the wild, ending up with that I have
 to read their personal web blogs ..., out of lists.

 Cheers,
 Hermann

NACK.

Please do not change the LNA configuration for the HVR1110 -- I cannot
speak for the PCTV device, but I looked at the schematics for the
HVR1110 -- the LNA configuration should not be changed.

Regards,

Mike

  Fair enough. I'll apply the patch. Yet, we should address with Udi what 
  else is
  needed in order to sync their tree with ours without breaking support for 
  any
  existing device.
 
  I cant stress enough how important it is that this changeset gets
  merged upstream to Linus asap.  The 2.6.31-rc kernel is broken without
  this change.
 
  I'll add it on my next upstream changeset.


 Thanks for applying the fix patch.

 Now, at least those devices will work again, but there is still a
 regression since the previous kernels supported the LED and LNA
 functionality that my next patch restores.

 Hopefully we will hear from Udi soon.

 Just to be clear, the patch that we'd like Udi's comments on is this one:

 http://kernellabs.com/hg/~mkrufky/sms1xxx/rev/tip

 As this code is in the smsdvb common code, it calls into sms-cards and
 will return harmlessly to the caller on the non-hauppauge devices.
 The functionality is only changed for those cards that have this
 functionality defined in the sms-cards.c structures.

 Hopefully, Udi can agree to merge this into the 2.6.31 kernel, while
 we can work on Siano's internal event interface for the next kernel.
 Once that is working perfectly, we can remove the patch that I'm
 proposing now, and convert the Hauppauge devices to the newer event
 interface.

 Since:

 a) the pull request were sent on Jul, 28;
 b) we didn't have any answer from Siano up to today;
 c) a closer analysis showed that this patch won't affect non Hauppauge 
 devices;

 I'm merging the fix today.

 Udi, the better is to work at the event interface in a way that it won't 
 cause
 troubles with the existing Hauppauge devices. After having it done, we may 
 just
 remove the legacy SMS code

 Mauro,

 Thank you for merging the fixes.  Please be sure to send them both to
 Linus for the 2.6.31 kernel, as these patches actually fix regressions
 introduced only in this 2.6.31 kernel.

 Once the event interface works properly, I will be very happy to port
 the existing device-specific GPIO handling functionality to it.  This
 will be a nice improvement in flexibility and in code cleanliness.

 Udi, Please let me know once this is ready -- I look forward to the testing.

 Regards,

 Mike


Mauro,

Would you please send the final GPIO fix to Linus to fix the
regression on the Hauppauge devices.  2.6.31 is in -rc7 now, and I
would hate for this regression to not yet be solved before the kernel
is released.

I apologize for nagging -- I just prefer for fixes to be merged
upstream *before* a kernel release.

Thank you.

Just as a reminder, the changeset that is still waiting for upstream merge is:

*   sms1xxx: restore GPIO functionality for all Hauppauge devices

Thanks  regards,

Mike Krufky

 Kevin  Mauro,

 Do I need to wait or this can be resolved by either of you for my work to
proceed?

Murali,

If I fix your patch in order to apply it on my tree, backporting it to the
old
arch header files, we'll have merge troubles upstream, when Kevin merge his
changes. It will also mean that he'll need to apply a diff patch on his
tree,
in order to convert the patch to the new headers, and that git bisect may
break. I might merge his tree here, but this means that, if he needs to
rebase
his tree (and sometimes people need to rebase their linux-next trees), I'll
have troubles here, and I'll loose my work.

So, the better solution is if he could apply this specific patch, merging
his
tree upstream before your patches.

Cheers,
Mauro

Hello

I have a Anysee E30 Combo Plus USB device. It's capable of both DVB-C and
DVB-T. I currently use the device with ubuntu 9.04 64bit with mythtv. I have
problem with selction of mode for the device

The following way i can get DVB-T
1. Power up computer with E30 Combo Plus connected.
2. run dmesg




Anyone experienced this problem? It would be nice to run DVB-C without
having to disconnect and connect hardware.


You are not alone.
Looks like it is GPIO related problem. I don't have currently that device...
It is a little bit hard to fix without knowing exactly how GPIO pins are 
connected in each device. There is too many different hardware revisions 
with different GPIOs, fix one break the other.


From the anysee.c code you can find following entry:

/* Try to attach demodulator in following order:

[PATCH] dvb: add driver for 774 Friio White USB ISDB-T receiver

2009-08-24 Thread Akihiro TSUKADA
From: Akihiro Tsukada ts...@yahoo.co.jp

This patch adds driver for 774 Friio White, ISDB-T USB receiver

Friio White is an USB 2.0 ISDB-T receiver. (http://www.friio.com/)
The device has a GL861 chip and a Comtech JDVBT90502 canned tuner module.
This driver ignores all the frontend_parameters except frequency,
as ISDB-T shares the same parameter configuration across the country
and thus the device can work like an intelligent one.

As this device does not include a CAM nor hardware descrambling feature,
the driver passes through scrambled TS streams.

There is Friio Black, a variant for ISDB-S, which shares the same USB
Vendor/Product ID with White, but it is not supported in this driver.
They should be identified in the initialization sequence,
but this feature is not tested.

Priority: normal

Signed-off-by: Akihiro Tsukada ts...@yahoo.co.jp

Currently, all the Japanese Digital TV broadcasters, including the
charge-free ones, scramble their programs except the tiny sized versions
for cellular phones (called 1 seg. program).
BCAS card is used to descramble those normal sized programs,
and a private agency named BS Conditional Systems exclusively issues
the cards only as a bundle for the approved receiver devices.
Friio White is not, so it does not include a BCAS card.

There are some descrambler software using a BCAS card from somewhere else
with a PC/SC reader. Examples of these software include,
 filter command: http://www.marumo.ne.jp/junk/arib_std_b25-0.2.4.lzh
 Gstreamer plugin: http://2sen.dip.jp/cgi-bin/dtvup/source/up0158.zip
But you have to note that their use may violate the card's license agreement.
