Thanks for testing it. Big changes on complex driver require testing. > Congratulations! You completely broke the DRXK for ngene and ddbridge: > - DVB-T tuning does not work anymore. I don't have any DVB-T signal here. I'll double check what changed there and see if I can identify a possible cause for it, but eventually I may not discover what's wrong. Before I start bisecting, I need to know if the starting point is working. So, had you test that DVB-T was working after your cleanup patches? > - Module unloading fails as well. drxk is 'in use' due to bad reference count. I was eventually expecting a feedback about that. The patch that changed the behavior is this one: http://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git?a=commitdiff;h=f087cdd6f4fa8bef0e7588b124f52649d3cebe67 What happens is that drxk_attach() allocates one state struct each time it is called, and it initializes both frontends with the state: state = kzalloc(sizeof(struct drxk_state), GFP_KERNEL); ... state->c_frontend.demodulator_priv = state; state->t_frontend.demodulator_priv = state; ... *fe_t = &state->t_frontend; ... return &state->c_frontend; If you call it twice, the driver will loose the references for the first struct, and you'll end by having a memory leak at driver removal, if both DVB-T and DVB-C are registered. On my code, I've made sure to call it only once, and then I ended by having a reference = (u32) -1 for device removal, preventing me to remove the driver, as . So, clearly, that function should be called just once. However, at DVB unregister, dvb_frontend_detach() will be called twice: static void unregister_dvb(struct em28xx_dvb *dvb) { dvb_net_release(&dvb->net); dvb->demux.dmx.remove_frontend(&dvb->demux.dmx, &dvb->fe_mem); dvb->demux.dmx.remove_frontend(&dvb->demux.dmx, &dvb->fe_hw); dvb_dmxdev_release(&dvb->dmxdev); dvb_dmx_release(&dvb->demux); if (dvb->fe[1]) dvb_unregister_frontend(dvb->fe[1]); dvb_unregister_frontend(dvb->fe[0]); if (dvb->fe[1]) dvb_frontend_detach(dvb->fe[1]); dvb_frontend_detach(dvb->fe[0]); dvb_unregister_adapter(&dvb->adapter); } Or we would need to write a special unregister function at the driver just to cover the cases where DRX-K is used, as, on all other drivers, the attach function is called twice, even when the frontend supports two different types. See cxd2820r_attach, for example: instead of initializing both frontends with just one call, it can be called twice. If called a second time, it will just use the previously allocated data. I think that the better is to revert my patch and apply a solution similar to cxd2820r_attach. It should work fine if called just once (like ngene/ddbridge) or twice (like em28xx). > (DVB-C not tested: I currently do not have access to a DVB-C signal.) Hmm... are you sure that DVB-C used to work? I found an error on DVB-C setup for the device I used for test, fixed on this patch: http://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git?a=commitdiff;h=21ff98772327ff182f54d2fcca69448e440e23d3 Basically, on the device I tested, scu command: SCU_RAM_COMMAND_STANDARD_QAM | SCU_RAM_COMMAND_CMD_DEMOD_SET_PARAM requires 2 parameters, instead of 4. I've preserved the old behavior there, assuming that your code was working, but I suspect that at least you need to do this: + setParamParameters[0] = QAM_TOP_ANNEX_A; + if (state->m_OperationMode == OM_QAM_ITU_C) + setEnvParameters[0] = QAM_TOP_ANNEX_C; /* Annex */ + else + setEnvParameters[0] = 0; + + status = scu_command(state, SCU_RAM_COMMAND_STANDARD_QAM | SCU_RAM_COMMAND_CMD_DEMOD_SET_ENV, 1, setEnvParameters, 1, &cmdResult); Due to this logic there, at SetQAM: /* Env parameters */ setEnvParameters[2] = QAM_TOP_ANNEX_A; /* Annex */ if (state->m_OperationMode == OM_QAM_ITU_C) setEnvParameters[2] = QAM_TOP_ANNEX_C; /* Annex */ This var is filled, but there's no call to SCU_RAM_COMMAND_CMD_DEMOD_SET_ENV. Also, iti initializes it as parameters[2], instead of parameters[0]. > Loading the driver: > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.487399] Digital Devices PCIE bridge driver, Copyright (C) 2010-11 Digital Devices GmbH > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.487460] DDBridge 0000:01:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16 > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.487469] DDBridge driver detected: Digital Devices Octopus DVB adapter > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.487491] HW 00010001 FW 00010000 > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.488321] Port 0 (TAB 1): DUAL DVB-S2 > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.488837] Port 1 (TAB 2): NO MODULE > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.489654] Port 2 (TAB 3): DUAL DVB-C/T > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.490159] Port 3 (TAB 4): NO MODULE > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.491245] DVB: registering new adapter (DDBridge) > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.644296] LNBx2x attached on addr=b > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.644363] stv6110x_attach: Attaching STV6110x > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.644365] attach tuner input 0 adr 60 > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.644368] DVB: registering adapter 2 frontend 0 (STV090x Multistandard)... > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.644435] DVB: registering new adapter (DDBridge) > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.680305] LNBx2x attached on addr=9 > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.680373] stv6110x_attach: Attaching STV6110x > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.680375] attach tuner input 1 adr 63 > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.680378] DVB: registering adapter 3 frontend 0 (STV090x Multistandard)... > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.680445] DVB: registering new adapter (DDBridge) > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 184.688938] drxk: detected a drx-3913k, spin A3, xtal 27.000 MHz > Jul 15 00:52:48 darkstar kernel: [ 185.108839] DRXK driver version 0.9.4300 > Jul 15 00:52:50 darkstar kernel: [ 186.796361] DVB: registering adapter 4 frontend 0 (DRXK DVB-C)... > Jul 15 00:52:50 darkstar kernel: [ 186.796429] DVB: registering adapter 4 frontend 0 (DRXK DVB-T)... > Jul 15 00:52:50 darkstar kernel: [ 186.796471] DVB: registering new adapter (DDBridge) > Jul 15 00:52:50 darkstar kernel: [ 186.804923] drxk: detected a drx-3913k, spin A3, xtal 27.000 MHz > Jul 15 00:52:50 darkstar kernel: [ 187.224841] DRXK driver version 0.9.4300 > Jul 15 00:52:52 darkstar kernel: [ 188.912354] DVB: registering adapter 5 frontend 0 (DRXK DVB-C)... > Jul 15 00:52:52 darkstar kernel: [ 188.912424] DVB: registering adapter 5 frontend 0 (DRXK DVB-T)... > > When trying to tune, the log is flooded with: > Jul 15 00:53:15 darkstar kernel: [ 211.537173] drxk: Error -22 on DVBTScCommand > Jul 15 00:53:15 darkstar kernel: [ 211.538206] drxk: Error -22 on DVBTStart > Jul 15 00:53:15 darkstar kernel: [ 211.539151] drxk: Error -22 on Start > Jul 15 00:53:15 darkstar kernel: [ 211.940231] drxk: SCU not ready > Jul 15 00:53:15 darkstar kernel: [ 211.941310] drxk: Error -5 on SetDVBT > Jul 15 00:53:15 darkstar kernel: [ 211.942243] drxk: Error -5 on Start > Jul 15 00:53:15 darkstar kernel: [ 212.340237] drxk: SCU not ready > Jul 15 00:53:15 darkstar kernel: [ 212.341286] drxk: Error -5 on SetDVBT > Jul 15 00:53:15 darkstar kernel: [ 212.342202] drxk: Error -5 on Start > Jul 15 00:53:16 darkstar kernel: [ 212.740238] drxk: SCU not ready > ... > > Unloading: > ERROR: Module drxk is in use > > lsmod: > Module Size Used by > drxk 47332 2 > > > Sorry, I currently do not have the time to dig through your changesets. > > With these bugs the driver is unusable and not ready for the kernel. > > I hereby NACK submission of the driver to the kernel! > > CU > Oliver >
