Subject: [PATCH v3 0/6] Legacy DVB API: completion of documentation
Date: Mon, 17 Jul 2023 04:04:40 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230717020446.28877-1-herdler@nurfuerspam.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230327192826.65ae299d@sal.lan>

Changes since v2:
* Split the patch into a patch series.
* Incorporate the changes requested.
* Style updates to better match the existing documentation.
* And a lot of small fixes.


Hi Mauro,

it took a little longer then expected, but I didn't had much time in spare
for this. I'm pretty much occupied by other things at the moment.
The winter season would be better for things like this, but I try to
finish it as quick as possible.

I went through your mail point by point and I'm confident, that I was able
to sort out your questions now. At least I don't see anything that need to
be improved anymore.
The work has been done in a lot of small blocks over a pretty long period
after my daily work, mostly late at night. Despite double checking
everything, I maybe still have missed something. I hope it is not too
much.

For usage it has been checked against the known projects using the DVB
decoder APIs:
* The AV7110 kernel driver.
* The out of tree driver for the HD full featured cards.[1]
* The "Enigma2" sources from openatv team.[2]
  (The drivers of the boxes are binary only.)

Possibly unused items have been listed in the comment of the patches.
Please take this lists with a pinch of salt. With the number of items
checked, it is pretty easy to miss an occurrence or have a false positive.
Although I've done my best, there is still the chance that I've missed an
use case.

I tried to complete the documentation of this unused definition too.
Most information had been collect anyway and writing it down wasn't that
much of effort.

Removing the definition and documentation later at once is always an
option.
I would prefer to do it this way, if something has to be removed.
It is easier to revert the change in case of a regression.
If necessary I can provide the patches too.

Regards
Stefan
