Hans,

A few weeks ago you asked if VIDIOC_INT_RESET is still needed in ivtv.
I can now say for certain, that yes, it is still needed.

See this from 2008:

It will not be needed after I get two things done:

1. patch ivtv to issue a GPIO reset of the IR chip at module load.

2. add a way for the cx18, ivtv, and hdpvr bridge drivers to provide a
reset callback to lirc_zilog.  (I know ivtv and cx18 can provide one.)

After that, cx18 and ivtv will not need the VIDIOC_INT_RESET ioctl().

Regards,
Andy
