* V4L/DVB (3774): Create V4L1 config optionsMauro Carvalho Chehab2006-05-12
| | | | | | | | | V4L1 API is depreciated and should be removed soon from kernel. This patch adds two new options, one to disable V4L1 drivers, and another to disable V4L1 compat module. This way, it would be easy to check what still depends on V4L1 stuff, allowing also to test if app works fine with V4L2 only support. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>

* V4L/DVB (3766): Correct buffer size calculations in cx88-core.cDuncan Sands2006-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | The computation in cx88_risc_buffer suffers from the mistake: a non-zero padding value can cause more page borders to be crossed, leading to big buffer over-runs. This patch changes the additive constant from 3 + 4 to 4 It also changees the constant in cx88_risc_databuffer from 3 + 4 to 2, because 2 dwords are the correct vaule.

* V4L/DVB (3763): Bug fix: Wrong tuner was used pcHDTV HD-3000 cardTrent Piepho2006-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | It looks like the HD3000 was prototyped with the 7610 tuner when the driver was developed, but the cards appear to have always shipped with the 7612 tuner and the driver was never adjusted for it. The definition needs to be corrected. - The HD-3000 was prototyped with a Thomson DTT7610, but production versions used a DTT7612 tuner. - This patch changes both dvb-pll settings and V4L tuner type.

* V4L/DVB (3725): Fix mutex in dvb_register_device to work.Andrew de Quincey2006-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | This mutex is meant to stop two devices getting the same ID. dvbdev_get_free_id() scans the list of already allocated devices to find a free id. Unfortunately, since the mutex is unlocked before the card is added to the above list, it is still possible for two of them to get the same id. Its debatable whether this mutex lock is actually needed, but I'm unwilling to just remove it in case something does depend on it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are tree mistakes on bttv_risc_overlay. 1) When skip_odd is true, the number of lines for which instructions are written is (height+1)/2, not height/2. 2) This occurs when clipping: the number of instruction bytes written can be as much as 8 + 12*nclips, not 8 + 8*nclips, as currently estimated. 3) Coverity check were wrong with nskips=0, since it means that it can clipped at most one line.

The specification states that the bit can be cleared by writing a 1 to it, but under certain circumstances it is possible for this bit to not clear. Writing a 0 to the bit resets the internal state machine and clears the issue. Since all writable bits in ACBST are W1C bits (write-one-to-clear) the second write doesn't affect any other logic except the buggy NEGACK state machine. The second write clears an internal register which is responsible for "overwriting" the NEGACK bit in ACBST.

And apparently, the block layer expects its users to pin device structures. The code in ub was broken this way for years. But the bug was exposed only by 2.6.16 when it started to call block_uevent on close, which traverses device structures (kobjects actually).

Both Erik Mouw and Andrew Vasquez independently pinpointed this commit as causing problems, where the slab cache for a driver is never released (most obviously causing problems when immediately re-loading that driver, resulting in a "kmem_cache_create: duplicate cache <xyz>" message, but it can also cause other trouble). James Bottomley dug into it, and reports: "OK, here's the scoop. The problem patch adds a get of driverfs_dev in add_disk(), but doesn't put it again until disk_release() (which occurs on final put_disk() of the gendisk). However, in SCSI, the driverfs_dev is the sdev_gendev. That means there's a reference held on sdev_gendev until final disk put. Unfortunately, we use the driver model driver_remove to trigger del_gendisk (which removes the gendisk from visibility and decrements the refcount), so we've introduced an unbreakable deadlock in the reference counting with this. I suggest simply reversing this patch at the moment. If Russell and Jens can tell me what they're trying to do I'll see if there's another way to do it." so hereby the patch gets reverted, waiting for a better fix.
