For example, the lirc-remotes[2] repo has over 2700 remotes, many of which are not supported by rc-core. There is a "long tail" of unsupported IR protocols, for which lircd is need to decode the IR . IR encoding is done in such a way that some simple circuit can decode it; therefore, bpf is ideal. In order to support all these protocols, here we have bpf based IR decoding. The idea is that user-space can define a decoder in bpf, attach it to the rc device through the lirc chardev. Separate work is underway to extend ir-keytable to have an extensive library of bpf-based decoders, and a much expanded library of rc keymaps. Another future application would be to compile IRP[3] to a IR BPF program, and so support virtually every remote without having to write a decoder for each. It might also be possible to support non-button devices such as analog directional pads or air conditioning remote controls and decode the target temperature in bpf, and pass that to an input device.
