Using typedefs inside the Kernel is against CodingStyle, and
there's no good usage here.
Just like we did at frontend.h, at changeset 0df289a209e0
("[media] dvb: Get rid of typedev usage for enums"), let's keep
those typedefs only to provide userspace backward compatibility.
No functional changes.

On several places at the introduction, a digital TV board and its
kernel support is called as DVB. The reason is simple: by the
time the document was written, there were no other digital TV
standards :-)
Modernize the specs by referring to them as Digital TV.

Both CA and decoders are optional. Also, the presence or
absence has nothing to do on being a PCI card or not.
Nowadays, most hardware leaves the decoders to either the
GPU or to some ISP inside the SoC, instead of implementing
it inside the Digital TV part of the device.
So, change the wording to reflect the hardware changes.

struct dtv_cmds_h is just an ancillary struct used by the
dvb_frontend.c to internally store frontend commands.
It doesn't belong to the userspace header, nor it is used anywhere,
except inside the DVB core. So, remove it from the header.

Most of the stuff at the Digital TV frontend header file
are documented only at the Documentation. However, a few
kernel-doc markups are there, several of them with parsing
issues.
Add the missing documentation, copying definitions from the
Documentation when it applies, fixing some bugs.
Please notice that DVBv3 stuff that were deprecated weren't
commented by purpose. Instead, they were clearly tagged as
such.
This patch prepares to move part of the documentation from
Documentation/ to kernel-doc comments.

Now that frontend.h contains most documentation for the frontend,
remove the duplicated information from Documentation/ and use the
kernel-doc auto-generated one instead.
That should simplify maintainership of DVB frontend uAPI, as most
of the documentation will stick with the header file.

It only exists at the DVB book, with no code implemeting it.
So, just get rid of it.

-Synopsis
---------
-
-.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, DMX_GET_EVENT, struct dmx_event *ev)
- :name: DMX_GET_EVENT
-
-
-Arguments
----------
-
-``fd``
- File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open() <dvb-dmx-open>`.
-
-``ev``
- Pointer to the location where the event is to be stored.
-
-
-Description
------------
-
-This ioctl call returns an event if available. If an event is not
-available, the behavior depends on whether the device is in blocking or
-non-blocking mode. In the latter case, the call fails immediately with
-errno set to ``EWOULDBLOCK``. In the former case, the call blocks until an
-event becomes available.
-
-
-Return Value
-------------
-
-On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
-appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
-:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
-
-
-
-.. flat-table::
- :header-rows: 0
- :stub-columns: 0
-
-
- - .. row 1
-
- - ``EWOULDBLOCK``
-
- - There is no event pending, and the device is in non-blocking mode.

The demux documentation is pretty poor nowadays: most of the
structs and enums aren't documented at all.
Add proper kernel-doc markups for them and use it.
Now, the demux API is fully documented :-)

This ioctl seems to be some attempt to support a feature
at the bt8xx dst_ca driver. Yet, as said there, it
"needs more work". Right now, the code there is just
a boilerplate.
At the end of the day, no driver uses this ioctl, nor it is
documented anywhere (except for "needs more work").
So, get rid of it.

For most of the stuff there, documenting is easy, as the
header file contains information.
Yet, I was unable to document two data structs:
ca_msg and ca_descr
As those two structs are used by a few drivers, keep them.

Right now, on several places, the driver is returning a
"-1" error to userspace, instead of a proper error code.
Fix it.

While we don't have any documentation for it, based on what's
there at Kaffeine and VDR, it seems that this command should
be issued before start using CA. So, document it as such.

Right now, the same undocumented structs are on two places:
at ca_data_types.rst and together with their ioctls.
Move them to just one place and use the standard way to
represent them.

a boilerplate code there. Remove it, as it is unlikely that
anyone would implement it those days.

I never seen usage of such R/W ioctls, all drivers I have access to
are using read()/write() variant of communication.

1) #define CA_SET_DESCR _IOW('o', 134, ca_descr_t)
============================================
CA_SET_DESCR is used for feeding descrambler device
with correct keys (called here "control words") what
allows to get services unscrambled.
The best docu is:
"Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB);
Support for use of the DVB Scrambling Algorithm version 3
within digital broadcasting systems"
Defined as DVB Document A125 and publicly
available here:
https://www.dvb.org/resources/public/standards/a125_dvb-csa3.pdf
typedef struct ca_descr {
unsigned int index;
unsigned int parity; /* 0 == even, 1 == odd */
unsigned char cw[8];
} ca_descr_t;
The 'index' is adress of the descrambler instance, as there exist
limited number of them (retieved by CA_GET_DESCR_INFO).
See below:
2) #define CA_SET_PID _IOW('o', 135, ca_pid_t)
=======================================
The second ioctl was used to link particular PID with particular
descrambler, what means that all such pids (you are allowed
to create n-to-1 link), can be descrambled by one descrambler.
This is needed in case of multiservice descrambling, when
usually exist one key (control word) per one service (so all PIDs
for one service have to be linked with one descrambler)
Without this ioctl there is no way to address particular
descrambler and so no way to use more then ONE descrambler
per demux

Thanks for the info. If I understood well, the enclosed patch should
be documenting it.

[PATCH] media: ca docs: document CA_SET_DESCR ioctl and structs
The av7110 driver uses CA_SET_DESCR to store the descrambler
control words at the CA descrambler slots.
Document it.

Yeh, it should be that way.
BTW, the only issue I have in mind is how to link particular
descrambler with the PID
after your removal of the CA_SET_PID. And yes, I know that currently we have
no any user of such ioctl in our driver base :)

Good! I'll add this patch to the series.

Well, I don't think that an ioctl like CA_SET_PID would solve it.
On a generic case with is quite common nowadays on embedded hardware,
We have K demods and M CIs (where K may be different than M).
Also, You may need to route N PIDs to O descramblers.
As user switch channels, the N PIDs should be unset, and another
set of N' pids will be routed.
CA_SET_PID allows to set just one PID, without identifying from
what demod it would be received, and doesn't have a "reset"
function to undo.
So, IMHO, the interface is broken by design. Perhaps that's
the reason why no upstream driver uses it.
What seems to be a much better design would be to use the demux
set filter ioctls and route the PIDs to the right CA.

Mauro

TBH that is exactly most common use-case = most Digital TV
vendors are scrambling per-service, what requires one descrambler
for all scrambled PIDs (usually only A/V PIDs are scrambled)
for particular service. So we have to add more PIDs to one descrambler
What was possible by multiple call of CA_SET_PID (I agree that much
better would be name like CA_ADD_PID)

Here I can agree - it looks like the value -1 in 'index' should
do the job, but it, unfortunately, looses info from which descrambler
it should be removed (see note in struct ca_pid for value -1)

I have the same feeling regarding brokenness.

I don't have access to any programmer reference documentation
for any modern DVB-enabled SoC, but I see two possible scenario
of connecting descramblers to the demuxes (most of modern SoCs
have more then one demux) - static one, when every demux has
predefined descramblers already connected to it and dynamic ones,
when any descrambler can be connected to the any demux.
>From that reason I vote to have some descrambler specific ioctl,

My 5 cents
/Honza
PS: I understand that until we get some multi-descrambler device included,
we don't need to address descrambler management.

I don't have access to the documentation either, but I know
some designs that have multiple demods that are dynamically set.
Some hardware even allow to dynamically change the maximum amount
of filters per demod at runtime.
> From that reason I vote to have some descrambler specific ioctl,

I suspect that doing it at the demod does a lot more sense.
Anyway, someone should come with a driver requiring it upstream
for us to discuss and find the better alternatives to support.
Thanks,
Mauro

Yeah, the normal usage is to use R/W syscalls.

>From the ca_msg struct:
/* a message to/from a CI-CAM */
struct ca_msg {
unsigned int index;
unsigned int type;
unsigned int length;
unsigned char msg[256];
};
It only uses length and msg fields. Describing those seem
quite obvious. However, what "index" and "type" means?
Within the Kernel, only two drivers implement it:
$ git grep -l ca_msg drivers/
drivers/media/firewire/firedtv-ci.c
drivers/media/pci/bt8xx/dst_ca.c
At the dst_ca driver, checking for those fields don't give any
useful result:
$ grep index drivers/media/pci/bt8xx/dst_ca.c
(nothing)
$ grep type drivers/media/pci/bt8xx/dst_ca.c
// Copy application_type, application_manufacturer and manufacturer_code
p_ca_caps->slot_type = 1;
p_ca_caps->descr_type = 1;
p_ca_slot_info->type = CA_CI;
p_ca_slot_info->type = CA_CI;
(btw, using "1" for slot_type and descr_type there seems a very bad
thing)
The code at ca_get_message(), handle_dst_tag(), ca_set_pmt(), etc also
doesn't seem to be using neither one of those fields.
The same happens at firedtv-ci: it also doesn't seem to be using
none of those fields.
It should be noticed that, the dst_ca seems to allow more than one
descrambler:
p_ca_caps->descr_num = slot_cap[7];
Yet, the index is not used. So, it doesn't seem to be related to
the descrambler index (or there's an implementation bug there - and
at dvblast - as none uses it).
What *I* suspect is that this were meant to be used for either
CA index/type or DESCR index/type, but, when this got implemented,
people discovered that this would be useless and never actually
used those fields. Yet, I may be completely wrong and those were
added to mean something else.
If so, then we could just change the struct to:
struct ca_msg {
unsigned int reserved[2];
unsigned int length;
unsigned char msg[256];
};
And document just length and msg.
Thanks,
Mauro
