1<title>DVB Audio Device</title>
2<para>The DVB audio device controls the MPEG2 audio decoder of the DVB hardware. It
3can be accessed through <emphasis role="tt">/dev/dvb/adapter0/audio0</emphasis>. Data types and and
4ioctl definitions can be accessed by including <emphasis role="tt">linux/dvb/video.h</emphasis> in your
5application.

7<para>Please note that some DVB cards don&#8217;t have their own MPEG decoder, which results in
8the omission of the audio and video device.

157<para>This system call opens a named audio device (e.g. /dev/dvb/adapter0/audio0)
158 for subsequent use. When an open() call has succeeded, the device will be ready
159 for use. The significance of blocking or non-blocking mode is described in the
160 documentation for functions where there is a difference. It does not affect the
161 semantics of the open() call itself. A device opened in blocking mode can later
162 be put into non-blocking mode (and vice versa) using the F_SETFL command
163 of the fcntl system call. This is a standard system call, documented in the Linux
164 manual page for fcntl. Only one user can open the Audio Device in O_RDWR
165 mode. All other attempts to open the device in this mode will fail, and an error
166 code will be returned. If the Audio Device is opened in O_RDONLY mode, the
167 only ioctl call that can be used is AUDIO_GET_STATUS. All other call will
168 return with an error code.</para>

92 The significance of blocking or non-blocking mode is described in the
93 documentation for functions where there is a difference. It does not affect the
94 semantics of the open() call itself. A device opened in blocking mode can later
95 be put into non-blocking mode (and vice versa) using the F_SETFL command
96 of the fcntl system call. This is a standard system call, documented in the Linux
97 manual page for fcntl. Only one user can open the CA Device in O_RDWR
98 mode. All other attempts to open the device in this mode will fail, and an error

339<para>This system call opens a named frontend device (/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0)
340 for subsequent use. Usually the first thing to do after a successful open is to
341 find out the frontend type with FE_GET_INFO.</para>
342<para>The device can be opened in read-only mode, which only allows monitoring of
343 device status and statistics, or read/write mode, which allows any kind of use
344 (e.g. performing tuning operations.)
345</para>
346<para>In a system with multiple front-ends, it is usually the case that multiple devices
347 cannot be open in read/write mode simultaneously. As long as a front-end
348 device is opened in read/write mode, other open() calls in read/write mode will
349 either fail or block, depending on whether non-blocking or blocking mode was
350 specified. A front-end device opened in blocking mode can later be put into
351 non-blocking mode (and vice versa) using the F_SETFL command of the fcntl
352 system call. This is a standard system call, documented in the Linux manual
353 page for fcntl. When an open() call has succeeded, the device will be ready
354 for use in the specified mode. This implies that the corresponding hardware is
355 powered up, and that other front-ends may have been powered down to make
356 that possible.</para>

1012<para>This ioctl call returns a frontend event if available. If an event is not
1013 available, the behavior depends on whether the device is in blocking or
1014 non-blocking mode. In the latter case, the call fails immediately with errno
1015 set to EWOULDBLOCK. In the former case, the call blocks until an event
1016 becomes available.</para>

1018 </row><row><entry
1019 align="char">
1020<para>The standard Linux poll() and/or select() system calls can be used with the
1021 device file descriptor to watch for new events. For select(), the file descriptor
1022 should be included in the exceptfds argument, and for poll(), POLLPRI should
1023 be specified as the wake-up condition. Since the event queue allocated is
1024 rather small (room for 8 events), the queue must be serviced regularly to avoid
1025 overflow. If an overflow happens, the oldest event is discarded from the queue,
1026 and an error (EOVERFLOW) occurs the next time the queue is read. After
1027 reporting the error condition in this fashion, subsequent FE_GET_EVENT
1028 calls will return events from the queue as usual.</para>

24<para>The first API for DVB cards we used at Convergence in late 1999
25was an extension of the Video4Linux API which was primarily developed
26for frame grabber cards. As such it was not really well suited to be
27used for DVB cards and their new features like recording MPEG streams
28and filtering several section and PES data streams at the same time.
29</para>
30
31<para>In early 2000, we were approached by Nokia with a proposal for a
32new standard Linux DVB API. As a commitment to the development of
33terminals based on open standards, Nokia and Convergence made it
34available to all Linux developers and published it on <emphasis
35role="tt">http://www.linuxtv.org/</emphasis> in September 2000.
36Convergence is the maintainer of the Linux DVB API. Together with the
37LinuxTV community (i.e. you, the reader of this document), the Linux DVB
38API will be constantly reviewed and improved. With the Linux driver for
39the Siemens/Hauppauge DVB PCI card Convergence provides a first
40implementation of the Linux DVB API.</para>

68demodulates this signal into an MPEG transport stream (TS). In case of a

120<para>The Linux DVB API lets you control these hardware components
121through currently six Unix-style character devices for video, audio,
122frontend, demux, CA and IP-over-DVB networking. The video and audio
123devices control the MPEG2 decoder hardware, the frontend device the
124tuner and the DVB demodulator. The demux device gives you control over
125the PES and section filters of the hardware. If the hardware does not
126support filtering these filters can be implemented in software. Finally,
127the CA device controls all the conditional access capabilities of the
128hardware. It can depend on the individual security requirements of the
129platform, if and how many of the CA functions are made available to the
130application through this device.</para>

458<section id="demux_api">
459<title>Demux API</title>
460<para>The demux API should be implemented for each demux in the system. It is used to select
461the TS source of a demux and to manage the demux resources. When the demux
462client allocates a resource via the demux API, it receives a pointer to the API of that
463resource.
464</para>
465<para>Each demux receives its TS input from a DVB front-end or from memory, as set via the
466demux API. In a system with more than one front-end, the API can be used to select one of
467the DVB front-ends as a TS source for a demux, unless this is fixed in the HW platform. The
468demux API only controls front-ends regarding their connections with demuxes; the APIs
469used to set the other front-end parameters, such as tuning, are not defined in this
470document.
471</para>
472<para>The functions that implement the abstract interface demux should be defined static or
473module private and registered to the Demux Directory for external access. It is not necessary
474to implement every function in the demux_t struct, however (for example, a demux interface
475might support Section filtering, but not TS or PES filtering). The API client is expected to
476check the value of any function pointer before calling the function: the value of NULL means
477&#8220;function not available&#8221;.
478</para>
479<para>Whenever the functions of the demux API modify shared data, the possibilities of lost
480update and race condition problems should be addressed, e.g. by protecting parts of code with
481mutexes. This is especially important on multi-processor hosts.
482</para>
483<para>Note that functions called from a bottom half context must not sleep, at least in the 2.2.x
484kernels. Even a simple memory allocation can result in a kernel thread being put to sleep if
485swapping is needed. For example, the Linux kernel calls the functions of a network device
486interface from a bottom half context. Thus, if a demux API function is called from network
487device code, the function must not sleep.

1470<title>Demux Callback API</title>
1471<para>This kernel-space API comprises the callback functions that deliver filtered data to the
1472demux client. Unlike the other APIs, these API functions are provided by the client and called
1473from the demux code.
1474</para>
1475<para>The function pointers of this abstract interface are not packed into a structure as in the
1476other demux APIs, because the callback functions are registered and used independent
1477of each other. As an example, it is possible for the API client to provide several
1478callback functions for receiving TS packets and no callbacks for PES packets or
1479sections.
1480</para>
1481<para>The functions that implement the callback API need not be re-entrant: when a demux
1482driver calls one of these functions, the driver is not allowed to call the function again before
1483the original call returns. If a callback is triggered by a hardware interrupt, it is recommended
1484to use the Linux &#8220;bottom half&#8221; mechanism or start a tasklet instead of making the callback
1485function call directly from a hardware interrupt.

1500<para>Any TS packets that match the filter settings are copied to a circular buffer. The
1501 filtered TS packets are delivered to the client using this callback function. The
1502 size of the circular buffer is controlled by the circular_buffer_size parameter
1503 of the set() function in the TS Feed API. It is expected that the buffer1 and
1504 buffer2 callback parameters point to addresses within the circular buffer, but
1505 other implementations are also possible. Note that the called party should not

1513 crossed the last address of the circular buffer and &#8221;wrapped&#8221; to the beginning
1514 of the buffer. In the latter case the buffer1 parameter would contain an address

1523 receiving callback_length bytes of TS data, any undelivered packets are

1532 the error can possibly be corrected by a higher layer protocol. If the called
1533 party is slow in processing the callback, it is possible that the circular buffer
1534 eventually fills up. If this happens, the demux driver should discard any TS
1535 packets received while the buffer is full. The error should be indicated to the
1536 client on the next callback by setting the success parameter to the value of

1634 align="char">
1635<para>This function, provided by the client of the demux API, is called from the
1636 demux code. The function is only called when filtering of sections has been
1637 enabled using the function start_filtering() of the section feed API. When the
1638 demux driver has received a complete section that matches at least one section
1639 filter, the client is notified via this callback function. Normally this function is
1640 called for each received section; however, it is also possible to deliver multiple
1641 sections with one callback, for example when the system load is high. If an
1642 error occurs while receiving a section, this function should be called with
1643 the corresponding error type set in the success field, whether or not there is
1644 data to deliver. The Section Feed implementation should maintain a circular
1645 buffer for received sections. However, this is not necessary if the Section Feed
1646 API is implemented as a client of the TS Feed API, because the TS Feed
1647 implementation then buffers the received data. The size of the circular buffer
1648 can be configured using the set() function in the Section Feed API. If there
1649 is no room in the circular buffer when a new section is received, the section
1650 must be discarded. If this happens, the value of the success parameter should
1651 be DMX_OVERRUN_ERROR on the next callback.</para>

288 The significance of blocking or non-blocking mode is described in the

290 semantics of the open() call itself. A device opened in blocking mode can later
291 be put into non-blocking mode (and vice versa) using the F_SETFL command
292 of the fcntl system call. This is a standard system call, documented in the Linux

938<para>This ioctl call returns an event of type video_event if available. If an event is
939 not available, the behavior depends on whether the device is in blocking or
940 non-blocking mode. In the latter case, the call fails immediately with errno
941 set to EWOULDBLOCK. In the former case, the call blocks until an event
942 becomes available. The standard Linux poll() and/or select() system calls can
943 be used with the device file descriptor to watch for new events. For select(),
944 the file descriptor should be included in the exceptfds argument, and for
945 poll(), POLLPRI should be specified as the wake-up condition. Read-only
946 permissions are sufficient for this ioctl call.</para>
