Due to the size of some of the patches, I don't post them on the list. Please have a look at them at: http://www.gdv.uni-hannover.de/~hunold1/dvb/ Below is a summary of what these patches actually do. I tried to preserve everything that wasn't changed through the linuxtv.org's CVS, so I hope I did not wipe something out again. I understand that this is a big load Linus will most likely refuse to merge at once. So I'd like to ask other users to have a look at these patches and ask the maintainers (Christoph Hellwig, Alan Cox) to actually do the merge. @ Christoph Hellwig: I hope I followed all your suggestions. These were: - remove the DVB_DEVFS_ONLY completly - remove all #ifdef LINUX_KERNEL magic - remove all *internal* typedefs for structs and enums - use c99 initializers - use linux/errno.h instead of asm/errno.h - follow the new devfs api Still left: - fix up dprintk() usage CU Michael. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1-09] update the firmware of the av7110 dvb driver [2-09] update the generic saa7146 driver - remove some #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE constructions - sync with the interrupt handler changes in 2.5.69 - add a missing kfree() call which caused the kernel to leak 32kB of kmalloc()ed memory. iieek! - fixed the capture code to handle cards that have swapped fields - added and fixed some debug messages - changed from kmalloc() to pci_consistent() - many small changes necessary to fix warnings/problems when compiled for ppc64 for example [3-09] update dvb subsystem core - switched from user-land types like __u8 to u8 and uint16_t to u16 this makes the patch rather large. - updated the dvr (digital videorecording) facility - renamed some structures, like "struct dmxdev_s" to "struct dmxdev" - introduced dvb_functions.[ch], where some linux-kernel specific functions are encapsulated. by this, the dvb subsystem stays quite independent from deeper linux kernel functions. - moved dvb_usercopy() to dvb_functions.c -- this is essentially video_usercopy() which should be generic_usercopy() instead... - Made the dvb-core in dvbdev.c work with devfs again. - remove all typedefs from structs - remove all typedefs from enums [4-09] update the av7110 and budget drivers - replaced ddelay() wait function with generic dvb_delay() implementation - new DATA_MPEG_VIDEO_EVENT for direct mpeg2 video playback - added support for DVB-C cards with MSP3400 mixer and analog tuner - fixed up the av7110_ir handler and especially the write_proc() function; this fixed the bug the Stanford Checker has found [5-09] update dvb frontend drivers - C99 initializers - fix up some includes - various bugfixes [6-09] add a new dvb frontend driver - add a new driver for the cx24110 frontend by Peter Hettkamp [7-09] add dvb subsystem as a crc32 lib user [8-09] update analog saa7146 drivers mxb and dpc7146 - add MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE entries, so that /sbin/hotplug can handle the devices - fixup due to the latest i2c changes [9-09] correct the i2c address of the saa7111 - corrects the i2c address from "34>>1" to 0x24 and 0x25. Believe me -- or look at the data sheet, for example from http://www.gdv.uni-hannover.de/~hunold1/linux/saa7146/specs/saa7111a.pdf Page 41 says: "Slave address read = 49H or 4BH; note 2 write = 48H or 4AH" They use 8-bit addresses here, but i2c addresses are 7-bit, ie. 0x48>>1 == 0x24 and 0x4a>>1 = 0x25 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
