Well, this config is used over years, and if it's about only renaming,
it won't be worth enough.
Removing TEA575X_RADIO in fm801.c is fine, though.
thanks,

Good!

Good question. It's in a weird place, but moving it may be more trouble than
it is worth. It might be a good idea to just try it and see if that improves
things or not.
The card can optionally be equipped with PT2254A volume control (equivalent of
TC9154AP) so I need to extend tea575x-tuner to allow adding additional V4L2
controls (and add one if the chip is present). Is this OK or should be
something like v4l2_subdev used somehow?
(My card does not have the PT2254A chip so that code is untested.)
No, this isn't the right approach. This should be done using the control
framework (see Documentation/video4linux/v4l2-controls.txt).
In order to use that the tea575x-tuner driver needs to be converted to that
framework, and so should any V4L driver that uses it. It's a fair amount of
work, although it is worth doing since it will ensure that these drivers
fully and correctly implement the V4L2 control API.
Thank you for looking into this, BTW! It's been on my TODO list for a long
time but I never had time to actually work on it.

Hans

This is listed as part of our working set of requirements for the next six-month cycle (in spite of the URL, this is not being treated as a graphics-specific topic - we also have participation from multimedia and kernel working group folks): https://wiki.linaro.org/Cycles//TechnicalTopics/Graphics As part of the memory management needs, Linaro organized several discussions during Linaro Development Summit (LDS), at Budapest, and invited me and other members of the V4L and DRI community to discuss about the requirements. I wish to thank Linaro for its initiative. Basically, on several SoC designs, the GPU and the CPU are integrated into the same chipset and they can share the same memory for a framebuffer. Also, they may have some IP blocks that allow processing the framebuffer internally, to do things like enhancing the image and converting it into an mpeg stream. The desire, from the SoC developers, is that those operations should be done using zero-copy transfers. This resembles somewhat the idea of the VIDIOC_OVERLAY/VIDIOC_FBUF API, that was used in the old days where CPUs weren't fast enough to process video without generating a huge load on it. So the overlay mode were created to allow direct PCI2PCI transfers from the video capture board into the display adapter, using XVideo extension, and removing the overload at the CPU due to a video stream. It were designed as a Kernel API for it, and an userspace X11 driver, that passes a framebuffer reference to the V4L driver, where it is used to program the DMA transfers to happen inside the framebuffer. At the LDS, we had a 3-day discussions about how the buffer sharing should be handled, and Linaro is producing a blueprint plan to address the needs. We had also a discussion about V4L and KMS, allowing both communities to better understand how things are supposed to work on the other side. From V4L2 perspective, what is needed is to create a way to somehow allow passing a framebuffer between two V4L2 devices and between a V4L2 device and GPU. The V4L2 device can either be an input or an output one. The original idea were to add yet-another-mmap-mode at the VIDIOC streaming ioctls, and keep using QBUF/DQBUF to handle it. However, as I've pointed there, this would leed into sync issues on a shared buffer, causing flip effects. Also, as the API is generic, it can be used also on generic computers, like desktops, notebooks and tablets (even on arm-based designs), and it may end to be actually implemented as a PCI2PCI transfer. So, based at all I've seen, I'm pretty much convinced that the normal MMAP way of streaming (VIDIOC_[REQBUF|STREAMON|STREAMOFF|QBUF|DQBUF ioctl's) are not the best way to share data with framebuffers. We probably need something that it will be an enhanced version of the VIDIOC_FBUF/VIDIOC_OVERLAY ioctls. Unfortunately, we can't just add more stuff there, as there's no reserved space. So, we'll probably add some VIDIOC_FBUF2 series of ioctl's. It seems to me that the proper way to develop such API is to start working with Xorg V4L driver, changing it to work with KMS and with the new API (probably porting some parts of the Xorg driver to kernelspace). One of the problems with a shared framebuffer is that an overlayed V4L stream may, at the worse case, be sent to up to 4 different GPU's and/or displays. Imagine a scenario like: ===+=== | | | | D1 +|---+ D2 | | | V4L| | | +-|+---|--| | || | | | D3 ++---+ D4 | | | | === Where D1, D2, D3 and D4 are 4 different displays, and the same V4L framebuffer is partially shared between them (the above is an example of a V4L input, although the reverse scenario of having one frame buffer divided into 4 V4L outputs also seems to be possible). As the same image may be divided into 4 monitors, the buffer filling should be synced with all of them, in order to avoid flipping effects. Also, the shared buffer can't be re-used until all displays finish reading. From what I understood from the discussions with DRI people, the display API's currently has similar issues of needing to wait for a buffer to be completely used before allowing it to be re-used. According to them, this were solved there by dynamically allocating buffers. We may need to do

Hello everyone,
This patch-set introduces new ioctls to V4L2 API. The new method for
configuration of cropping and composition is presented.
This is the third version of extended crop/compose RFC. List of applied
changes:
- reduced number of hints and its semantics to be more practical and less
restrictive
- combined EXTCROP and COMPOSE ioctls into VIDIOC_{S/G}_SELECTION
- introduced crop and compose targets
- introduced try flag that prevents passing configuration to a hardware
- added usage examples
RFC
1. Introduction
There is some confusion in understanding of cropping in current version
of V4L2. In a case of Capture Devices, cropping refers to choosing only
a part of input data stream, and processing it, and storing it in a
memory buffer. The buffer is fully filled by data. There is now generic
API to choose only a part of an image buffer for being updated by
hardware.
In case of OUTPUT devices, the whole content of a buffer is passed to
hardware and to output display. Cropping means selecting only a part of
an output display/signal. It is not possible to choose only a part of
the image buffer to be processed.
The overmentioned flaws in cropping API were discussed in post:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/2
8945
A solution was proposed during brainstorming session in Warsaw.
At first, the distinction between cropping and composing was stated. The
cropping operation means choosing only part of input data by bounding it
by a cropping rectangle. All data outside cropping area must be
discarded. On the other hand, composing means pasting processed data
into rectangular part of data sink. The sink may be output device, user
buffer, etc.
Two concepts were introduced:
Cropping rectangle: a) for input devices, a part of input data selected
by hardware from input stream and pasted to an image buffer b) for
output devices, a part of image buffer to be passed by hardware to
output stream
Composing rectangle: a) for input devices, a part of a image buffer that
is filled by hardware b) for output devices, an area on output device
where image is inserted
The configuration of composing/cropping areas is the subject of this
document.
2. Data structures.
The structure v4l2_crop used by current API lacks any place for further
extensions. Therefore new and more generic structure is proposed.
struct v4l2_selection {
u32 type;
u32 target;
u32 flags;
struct v4l2_rect r;
u32 reserved[9];
};
Where,
type - type of buffer queue: V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE,
V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT, etc.
target - choose one of cropping/composing rectangles
flags - control over coordinates adjustments
r - selection rectangle
reserved - place for further extensions, adjust struct size to 64 bytes
3. Crop/Compose ioctl.
New ioctls are added to V4L2.
Name
VIDIOC_G_SELECTION - get crop/compose rectangles from a driver
Synopsis
int ioctl(fd, VIDIOC_G_SELECTION, struct v4l2_selection *s)
Description:
The ioctl is used to query selection rectangles. Currently, it involves
only cropping and composing ones. To query cropping rectangle application
must fill selection::type with respective stream type from
V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_* family. Next, v4l2_selection::target must be
field with desired target type. Please refer to section Target for
details. On success the rectangle is returned in v4l2_selection::r
field. Field v4l2_selection::flags and v4l2_selection::reserved are
ignored and they must be filled with zeros.
Return value
On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the errno variable is set
appropriately:
EINVAL - incorrect buffer type, incorrect/not supported target
Looks fine.
-
Name
VIDIOC_S_SELECTION - set cropping rectangle on an input of a device
Synopsis
int ioctl(fd, VIDIOC_S_SELECTION, struct v4l2_selection *s)
Description:
The ioctl is used to configure a selection rectangle. An application
fills v4l2_selection::type field to specify an adequate stream type.
Next, the v4l2_selection::field target is filled. Basically, an
application choose between cropping or composing rectangle. Please refer
to section Targets for more details. Finally, structure

So, based at all I've seen, I'm pretty much convinced that the normal MMAP way of streaming (VIDIOC_[REQBUF|STREAMON|STREAMOFF|QBUF|DQBUF ioctl's) are not the best way to share data with framebuffers. I agree with that, but it is a different story between two V4L2 devices. There you obviously want to use the streaming ioctls and still share buffers. We probably need something that it will be an enhanced version of the VIDIOC_FBUF/VIDIOC_OVERLAY ioctls. Unfortunately, we can't just add more stuff there, as there's no reserved space. So, we'll probably add some VIDIOC_FBUF2 series of ioctl's. That will be useful as well to add better support for blending and Z-ordering between overlays. The old API for that is very limited in that respect. Regards, Hans It seems to me that the proper way to develop such API is to start working with Xorg V4L driver, changing it to work with KMS and with the new API (probably porting some parts of the Xorg driver to kernelspace). One of the problems with a shared framebuffer is that an overlayed V4L stream may, at the worse case, be sent to up to 4 different GPU's and/or displays. Imagine a scenario like: ===+=== | | | | D1 +|---+ D2 | | | V4L| | | +-|+---|--| | || | | | D3 ++---+ D4 | | | | === Where D1, D2, D3 and D4 are 4 different displays, and the same V4L framebuffer is partially shared between them (the above is an example of a V4L input, although the reverse scenario of having one frame buffer divided into 4 V4L outputs also seems to be possible). As the same image may be divided into 4 monitors,

Re: Problems of Pinnacle PCTV Hybrid pro stick in linux

If the problems are only in the userspace, at least one of many good softwares such as mentioned here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#problem1 could find the channels during scanning, aren't they? 2- you mentioned most of the comments and logs there provide not much help, i can provide any other help and comment and logs and tests of new changes in driver sources that you want, as i did about 12 days ago for Devin Heitmueller during a chat session in #linux-tv of irc.freenode.net. 3- you mentioned some about my performance complaints, but if you read this part of my writings: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#c1 you can find the power of my testing hardware is reasonably very very higher than needed by tv showing applications, and the Nvidia-G9500-GT graphic card is more famous than we can relate the problems to its miss functioning, isn't it? 4- i inserted the scan result of another DVB-stick that i had, here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/channels.conf for you , but i had not that DVB-stick now for testing again. it had the afatech-9015 chip set and could find my all 25 digital channel in any linux box by any here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#problem1 mentioned software. The only problem with that afatech based DVB was 2 : it could not play the sounds of digital channels except one of digital-TV channels i explained about it here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#p-h and here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#p-d and here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#p-e and here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#p-g , any second problem: it was not the analog TV capable. 5- and again the above mentioned paragraph (4) prove that most of problems is in the kernel space not userspace, because that afatech based DVB-stick could find all 25 digital channels during scan and play the by all of mentioned software, and only one of problems is the same as Pinnacle's one: the problem of sounds of that 13 digital tv channel. At end i again tell that, i am in the #linux-tv chat room as dast53 for speaking to solving those problems.

As I told you before, you're mixing clearly userspace issues or limitations with kernel-related ones. For example, there's nothing we can do at driver level to make kaffeine to perform better when decoding an MPEG-2 stream at full screen mode. This is probably either a performance issue with your GPU card or it is just that you're using a software decoder for it, on a slow CPU. Some applications allow, with a few GPU types, to run the MPEG-2 decoder inside the GPU. Yet, there's one relevant information there: 3- And even with kaffeine, the only way that i could watch some TV, was in this manner: Before this DVB-stick i inserted another DVB-USB stick in another linux computer and scan the channels with kaffeine and after finding the channels, quit the kaffeine and copy its database files ( $HOME/.kde/share/apps/kaffeine/* ) into the testing computer for pinnacle DVB-USB hybrid stick. After that copying, i could run kaffeine on the pinnacle DVB and without scanning, thus i had a table of channels and in its main window and when i clicked on a channel, that channel was shown. You mentioned that you did another dvb stick worked, but on another computer. Why such dvb stick didn't work at the computer you tested your Pinnacle device? Also, does the working stick is capable of getting the dvb channels using the scan tool provided at http://linuxtv.org/hg/dvb-apps? If so, please provide us the dmesg produced with the working card and the scan results (with -v, in order to put dvb scan into verbose mode), and the same info with the broken card.

Perhaps use 'type' instead of 'whence'? English isn't my native language,
but it sounds pretty archaic to me.
SOURCE is better than WHENCE here.
whence is certainly very formal and used very little. whence likely
still gets some use in English, simply because a terse synonym doesn't
exist.
The problem with using whence is that many English speakers won't know
its correct definition.
whence means from what source, origin, or place
In your use here, the implicit from in the definition of whence is
essential. However, most (American) English speakers that I know think
whence simply means where.

az6027: Terratec S7 has no signal on S2-transponders
Hi all, I use a Terratec S7 MKII with dvb_usb_az6027. DVB-S channels are working fine, but when trying to lock on DVB-S2 channels, the signal level drops to zero. Google and Windows told me this problem is not limited to me, and trying out s2-liplianin, in-kernel drivers of 2.6.38 and media-build.git did not help. As I have this hardware and C-knowledge here, I offer any help that might be needed in tracking down the problem. If there is something like an USB-trace/-sniffing to do (device works fine in Windows-VM), a RTFM with an URL would be fine. Furthermore, scanning Astra S19E2 takes ~90min with w_scan, as compared to 3-5min on Windows, so there appears to be also some problem tuning-related for DVB-S. - If this is the wrong place to ask, please ignore the message and direct me somewhere else. - All help is very much appreciated!

It is userspace task to decode the MPEG-TS and seek for for the Program Identifiers. 2- you mentioned most of the comments and logs there provide not much help, i can provide any other help and comment and logs and tests of new changes in driver sources that you want, as i did about 12 days ago for Devin Heitmueller during a chat session in #linux-tv of irc.freenode.net. Ok. Then please provide the logs for the both cards, showing what happens during the scan. We need scan -v log and the kernel logs (the command to get it is: dmesg). Please enable frontend, em28xx and af9015 debug logs, for us to know what the kernel is doing. 3- you mentioned some about my performance complaints, but if you read this part of my writings: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#c1 you can find the power of my testing hardware is reasonably very very higher than needed by tv showing applications, and the Nvidia-G9500-GT graphic card is more famous than we can relate the problems to its miss functioning, isn't it? It doesn't matter what Nvidia card you're using. The more expensive process is the MPEG decoding. If that happens on userspace, it is your CPU that will be used. HD streams require too much CPU. With the right software and the right video board driver, this task could be send to the Graphics card (GPU), by using an API (like vdpau), but not all software supports, and it requires a GPU-accelerated codec for the video standard (typically, mpeg2). I'm not sure if Kaffeine currently offers GPU-accelerated mpeg2 codec, and if the nouveau or the Nvidia proprietary driver is compatible with Kaffeine's GPU's codecs. 4- i inserted the scan result of another DVB-stick that i had, here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/channels.conf for you , but i had not that DVB-stick now for testing again. it had the afatech-9015 chip set and could find my all 25 digital channel in any linux box by any here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#problem1 mentioned software. It is interesting to see the logs for the af9015 device, and see what is it doing different than the Pinnacle one. The only problem with that afatech based DVB was 2 : it could not play the sounds of digital channels except one of digital-TV channels i explained about it here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#p-h and here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#p-d and here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#p-e and here: http://daftar.minidns.net/pctv/problem.html#p-g , From your descriptions, it seems that the program identifiers sent by the TV stations are wrong, or the userspace application is getting it wrong. Basically, each MPEG-TS stream has several PID's. each of them can have an audio or a video stream (there are also other types, but those two are the rellevant ones). The video and audio stream should be associated, otherwise, you won't be able to hear audio. There is another alternative: eventually, your country is using an audio codec that it is currently unsupported (or it requires you to install one additional libarary and re-compile your application). any second problem: it was not the analog TV capable. 5- and again the above mentioned paragraph (4) prove that most of problems is in the kernel space not userspace, because that afatech based DVB-stick could find all 25 digital channels during scan and play the by all of mentioned software, and only one of problems is the same as Pinnacle's one: the problem of sounds of that 13 digital tv channel. Probably, but hard to know without having both logs to compare. At end i again tell that, i am in the #linux-tv chat room as dast53 for speaking to solving those problems. I'm traveling abroad this entire week, and next week I'll be handling the pending work. Also, as the merge window will probably be opened next week, I'll be busy submitting the patches we have upstream. So,

This looks like a very well written driver for the most part. I have a few
comments, mainly regarding maintainability that you should probably look
into.
arch/arm/mach-at91/include/mach/at91_isi.h | 454
drivers/media/video/Kconfig| 10 +
drivers/media/video/Makefile |1 +
drivers/media/video/atmel-isi.c| 1089
So you have a mach specific header file that is used by a single driver?
That does not lean itself it code reuse. Better move the header file into
the same directory as the driver, or (better) merge its contents into the
same file.
This is especially important if the driver is possibly shared with avr32
socs.

+ (((old) ~(((1 ISI_##name##_SIZE) - 1) \
+ ISI_##name##_OFFSET))\
+ | ISI_BF(name, value))
A much better way to express the above would be to define the constants as
mask values rather than using the macros with bit numbers. There are
conflicting views on how bits are counted, plus the use of macros
makes it harder to grep for the idenfiers.
For example, do
#define ISI_RGB_CFG_DEFAULT 0x0001
#define ISI_RGB_CFG_MODE_1 0x0002
#define ISI_RGB_CFG_MODE_2 0x0004
#define ISI_RGB_CFG_MODE_3 0x0008
For the two examples I quoted, the values are actually the same,
so you might also want to name them so that you don't have to
define multiple versions but can simply reuse the same macros.
Some people also prefer the use of enum over #define, but I
leave that to your judgement
+/* Register access macros */
+#define isi_readl(port, reg) \
+ __raw_readl((port)-regs + ISI_##reg)
+#define isi_writel(port, reg, value) \
+ __raw_writel((value), (port)-regs + ISI_##reg)
Please explain why you use __raw_* instead of the proper
accessors in the comment. Normal drivers should always
use readl/writel.
Better don't concatenate identifiers, in order to make
grep and ctags work on the arguments.
+
+#define ATMEL_ISI_VERSIONKERNEL_VERSION(1, 0, 0)
Don't use KERNEL_VERSION() here, it means something else.
Better yet, don't define a version at all. It is not acceptable
to make any user space interface depend on specific versions,
this is a compatibility nightmare.

Re: [RFC] drm: add overlays as first class KMS objects

A few quick things to take away - I'll try to dig through all the stuff I've learned more in-depth later (probably in a blog post or two): Hi Daniel, thanks for writing this up - embedded graphics is insane. The output routing/blending/whatever currently shipping hw can do is crazy and kms as-is is nowhere near up to snuff to support this. We've discussed omap4 and a ti chip targeted at video surveillance as use cases. I'll post block diagrams and explanations some when later. Yeah I expected that; even just TVs can have really funky restrictions about z order and blend capability. - we should immediately stop to call anything an overlay. It's a confusing concept that has a different meaning in every subsystem and for every hw manufacturer. More sensible names are dma fifo engines for things that slurp in planes and make them available to the display subsystem. Blend engines for blocks that take multiple input pipes and overlay/underlay/blend them together. Display subsytem/controller for the aggregate thing including encoders/resizers/outputs and especially the crazy routing network that connects everything. How about just display plane then? Specifically in the context of display output hardware... display plane could be a good name.. actually in omap4 case it is a single dma engine that is multiplexing fetches for however many attached video pipes.. that is perhaps an implementation detail, but it makes display plane sound nicer as a name 1) Splitting the crtc object into two objects: crtc with associated output mode (pixel clock, encoders/connectors) and dma engines (possibly multiple) that feed it. omap 4 has essentially just 4 dma engines that can be freely assigned to the available outputs, so a distinction between normal crtcs and overlay engines just does not make sense. There's the major open question of where to put the various attributes to set up the output pipeline. Also some of these attributes might need to be changed atomicly together with pageflips on a bunch of dma engines all associated with the same crtc on the next vsync, e.g. output position of an overlaid video buffer. Yeah, that's a good goal, and pretty much what I had in mind here. However, breaking the existing interface is a non-starter, so either we need a new CRTC object altogether, or we preserve the idea of a primary plane (whatever that means for a given platform) that's tied to each CRTC, which each additional plane described in a separate structure. Z order and blend restrictions will have to be communicated separately I think... In the cases I can think of, you'll always have a primary plane, so userspace need not explicitly specify it. But I think you want the driver to pick which display plane to be automatically hooked between the primary fb and crtc, or at least this should be the case if some new bit is set in driver_features to indicate the driver supports multiple display planes per crtc.

I agree that we should change it to something like 125ms, for example, as 33ms is too short, as it takes up to 114ms for a repeat event to arrive. IMO, the enclosed patch should do a better job with repeat events, without needing to change rc-core/input/event logic. It will indeed reduce the amount of ghost events so it brings us in the right direction. I'd still like to get rid of the ghost repeats entirely, or at least some way for users to do it if we don't do it by default. Maybe we could replace the kernel softrepeat with native repeats (for those protocols/drivers that have them), while making sure that repeat events before REP_DELAY are ignored and repeat events less than REP_PERIOD since the previous event are ignored, so the users can still configure them as they like? This doesn't seem to be the right thing to do. If the kernel will accept 33 ms as the value or REP_PERIOD, but it will internally set the maximum repeat rate is 115 ms (no matter what logic it would use for that), Kernel (or X) shouldn't allow the user to set a smaller value. The thing is that writing a logic to block a small value is not easy, since the max value is protocol-dependent (worse than that, on some cases, it is device-specific). It seems better to add a warning at the userspace tools that delays lower than 115 ms can produce ghost events on IR's. From what I see, even periods longer than 115 ms can produce ghost events. For example with your patch softrepeat period is 125ms, release timeout 250ms, and a native rate of 110ms: There are 4 native events transmitted at 000 ms 110 ms 220 ms 330 ms (user stops between 330ms and 440ms) This causes these events in the evdev interface: 000: 1 125: 2 250: 2 375: 2 500: 2 550: 0 So we got 1-2 ghost repeat events. Or maybe just a module option that causes rc-core to use native repeat events, for those of us that want accurate repeat events without ghosting? If the user already knows about the possibility to generate ghost effects, with low delays, he can simply not pass a bad value to the kernel, instead of forcing a modprobe parameter that will limit the minimal value. There is no good value for REP_PERIOD (as in ghost repeats guaranteed gone like with native repeats). Sufficiently large values will make ghost repeats increasingly rare, but the period becomes so long the autorepeat becomes frustratingly slow to use. The 250 ms delay used internally to wait for a repeat code is there because shorter periods weren't working on one of the first boards we've added to rc core (it was a saa7134 - can't remember much details... too much time ago). I remember that I added it as a per-board timer (or per protocol?), as it seemed to high for me, but later, David sent a series of patches rewriting the entire stuff and proposing to have just one timer, arguing that later this could be changed. As his series were improving rc-core, I ended by acking with the changes. The fact is that REP_PERIODS shorter than that timer makes non-sense, as that timer is used to actually wait for a repeat message. I suspect we should re-work the code, perhaps replacing the 250 ms fixed value by REP_PERIOD. I can't work on it this weekend, as I'm about to leave Hungary to return back home. I suspect that I'll have lots of fun next week, due to a one-week travel, and due to the .40 merge window (I suspect it will be opened next week). Maybe Jarod can find some time to do such patch and test it.
