Subject: VIDIOC_INT_RESET still needed in ivtv for the moment
Date: Fri, 14 Jan 2011 19:09:34 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1295050174.2459.24.camel@localhost> (raw)

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:

http://www.mail-archive.com/ivtv-users@ivtvdriver.org/msg08613.html

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
