However, the device is often still not ready immediately after the call to `hdpvr_start_streaming` returns, causing the condition `if (buf->status != BUFSTAT_READY)` to exit the loop without reading any further data. By itself, this would merely cause a short read, which should be easily recoverable. However, if no data has been read so far, this causes `hdpvr_read` to return 0, which results in an end-of-file for the user application. Compensate for this by adding the ability to delay after the call to `hdpvr_start_streaming`, then `continue;` back to the top, so that `hdpvr_read` can call `wait_event_interruptible_timeout` again to wait for the device to become ready. This delay complements the prior patch. The prior patch delays before issuing the start-streaming command, to give the firmware time to stabilize before receiving the command. This delay is after the start-streaming command, to give the firmware time to bring the device to a ready state. This delay is configurable through a new module parameter, `hdpvr_restart_streaming_ms_delay`, which defaults to a 100 millisecond delay. To avoid an infinite loop in `hdpvr_read`, add a limit to how many times `hdpvr_read` can restart the device before returning. This limit is configurable through a new module parameter, `hdpvr_restart_streaming_max_tries`, and defaults to one restart. Administrators may set the limit to 0 to request that `hdpvr_read` never attempt to restart streaming. Previously, there was no way for administrators to opt out of an attempted restart.

Literal strings still exceed 80 columns where necessary to keep an entire string together, since this makes it easier for grep to find the file and line that generates a given message. --- drivers/media/usb/hdpvr/hdpvr-core.c | 8 ++++++ drivers/media/usb/hdpvr/hdpvr-video.c | 40 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/media/usb/hdpvr/hdpvr.h | 2 ++ 3 files changed, 50 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/media/usb/hdpvr/hdpvr-core.c b/drivers/media/usb/hdpvr/hdpvr-core.c index fd7608e7e94c..b7ac63113ac0 100644 --- a/drivers/media/usb/hdpvr/hdpvr-core.c +++ b/drivers/media/usb/hdpvr/hdpvr-core.c @@ -43,6 +43,14 @@ uint hdpvr_close_to_open_ms_delay = 4000; module_param(hdpvr_close_to_open_ms_delay, uint, S_IRUGO|S_IWUSR); MODULE_PARM_DESC(hdpvr_close_to_open_ms_delay, "delay restarting streaming by the specified number of milliseconds"); +uint hdpvr_restart_streaming_max_tries = 1; +module_param(hdpvr_restart_streaming_max_tries, uint, S_IRUGO|S_IWUSR); +MODULE_PARM_DESC(hdpvr_restart_streaming_max_tries, "restart streaming at most this many times within one read"); + +uint hdpvr_restart_streaming_ms_delay = 100; +module_param(hdpvr_restart_streaming_ms_delay, uint, S_IRUGO|S_IWUSR); +MODULE_PARM_DESC(hdpvr_restart_streaming_ms_delay, "delay continue by the specified number of milliseconds after restarting streaming"); + static uint default_video_input = HDPVR_VIDEO_INPUTS; module_param(default_video_input, uint, S_IRUGO|S_IWUSR); MODULE_PARM_DESC(default_video_input, "default video input: 0=Component / 1=S-Video / 2=Composite"); diff --git a/drivers/media/usb/hdpvr/hdpvr-video.c b/drivers/media/usb/hdpvr/hdpvr-video.c index 8a2b883d372e..e2ca5d955f4a 100644 --- a/drivers/media/usb/hdpvr/hdpvr-video.c +++ b/drivers/media/usb/hdpvr/hdpvr-video.c @@ -441,6 +441,8 @@ static ssize_t hdpvr_read(struct file *file, char __user *buffer, size_t count, struct hdpvr_buffer *buf = NULL; struct urb *urb; unsigned int ret = 0; + unsigned int restarts_remaining = hdpvr_restart_streaming_max_tries; + unsigned int delay; int rem, cnt; if (*pos) @@ -491,6 +493,20 @@ static ssize_t hdpvr_read(struct file *file, char __user *buffer, size_t count, goto err; } if (!err) { + if (restarts_remaining == 0) { + v4l2_dbg(MSG_BUFFER, hdpvr_debug, + &dev->v4l2_dev, + "timeout: no further restarts allowed by hdpvr_restart_streaming_max_tries; returning to caller with ret=%u", + ret); + /* This break will return the + * count of bytes copied so far, + * which may be 0.
