[PATCH] tvp5150: don't touch register TVP5150_CONF_SHARED_PIN if not needed

[PATCH] tvp5150: don't touch register TVP5150_CONF_SHARED_PIN if not needed

[Mauro Carvalho Chehab]

changeset 460b6c0831cb ("[media] tvp5150: Add s_stream subdev operation
support") added a logic that overrides TVP5150_CONF_SHARED_PIN setting,
depending on the type of bus set via the .set_fmt() subdev callback.

This is known to cause trobules on devices that don't use a V4L2
subdev devnode, and a fix for it was made by changeset 47de9bf8931e
("[media] tvp5150: Fix breakage for serial usage"). Unfortunately,
such fix doesn't consider the case of progressive video inputs,
causing chroma decoding issues on such videos, as it overrides not
only the type of video output, but also other unrelated bits.

So, instead of trying to guess, let's detect if the device is set
via Device Tree. If not, just ignore the bogus logic.

If you add a big [HACK] tag to the subject line, sure. I thought this would 
have been an occasion to fix the problem correctly :-(

No, this is not a hack.

It is a patch that restores the driver behavior that used to be
before adding DT support to the driver. Whatever DT-based drivers
need, it *should not* change the behavior for devices that don't
use DT.

I agree with you that the patch is incomplete, as it doesn't
add any OF var that would allow DT to specify the values
to be used for TVP5150_CONF_SHARED_PIN and TVP5150_MISC_CTL,
and assumes that tvp5150, tvp5151 and tvp5150am1 will all use
the same values for TVP5150_MISC_CTL.

In order to fix that, someone with a DT-based driver with tvp5150, 
tvp5150am1 and/or tvp5151 would need to spend some time and test
the hardware with both interlaced and progressive video inputs.

That's not me, as I don't have any hardware that meets such requirement.

If someone ships me such hardware, I could work on it on my spare time. 
Otherwise, then perhaps you could work on such patch - or we could ping 
Javier on Monday and see if has time/interest to work on it (afaikt, he's
OOT the rest of this week).

Anyway, with this patch applied, the one working on such fix won't need
to be concerned to cause new regressions on the non-DT drivers that use
this chip, with is, IMHO, a very good thing.

Also, this patch is simple enough to be backported to -stable.

What's missing here is a notice explaining what's left to be done,
like the one on the diff below.

Mauro

1. This has nothing to do with DT, but with the addition of the s_stream() 
operation.

2. When I added s_stream() support the em28xx driver did not call s_stream(1). 
That has been changed by

commit 13d52fe40f1f7bbad49128e8ee6a2fe5e13dd18d
Author: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@osg.samsung.com>

    [media] em28xx: fix implementation of s_stream
    
    On em28xx driver, s_stream subdev ops was not implemented
    properly. It was used only to disable stream, never enabling it.
    That was the root cause of the regression when we added support
    for s_stream on tvp5150 driver.
    
    With that, we can get rid of the changes on tvp5150 side,
    e. g. changeset 47de9bf8931e ('[media] tvp5150: Fix breakage for serial 
usage').
    
    Tested video output on em2820+tvp5150 on WinTV USB2 and
    video and/or vbi output on em288x+tvp5150 on HVR 950.

3. There's clearly a bug in the current implementation, and it needs to be 
fixed. That fact does not turn every attempt to address the bug into proper 
fixes by magic. Hacks remain hacks.

4. I'm working on a proper fix.

Re: [PATCH] tvp5150: don't touch register TVP5150_CONF_SHARED_PIN if not needed

[Devin Heitmueller]

Hi Mauro, Laurent,

I tried out Mauro's latest patch (9:46am EST), and it appears to at
least partially address the issue, but still doesn't work.  In fact,
whereas before I was getting stable video with a chroma issue, with
the patch applied I'm now getting no video at all (i.e. tvtime is
completely blocked waiting for frames to arrive).

First off, a register dump does show that register 0x03 is now 0x6F,
so at least that part is working.  However, TVP5150_DATA_RATE_SEL,
(register 0x0D) is now being set to 0x40, whereas it needs to be set
to 0x47 to work properly.  Just to confirm, I started up tvtime and
fed the device the following command, at which point video started
rendering properly:

sudo v4l2-dbg --chip=subdev0 --set-register=0x0d 0x47

I'm not sitting in front of the datasheet right now so I cannot
suggest what the correct fix is, but at first glance it looks like the
first hunk of Mauro's patch isn't correct for em28xx devices.

Also worth noting for the moment I'm testing exclusively with
composite on the HVR-850.  Once we've got that working, I'll dig out
an s-video cable and make sure that is working too.

Cheers,

Devin

Thanks for your offer to test patches. I'm working on a proper fix and should 
be able to finish it tonight.

Feel free to contact me on IRC if you want to discuss the fix live, it could 
be faster than over e-mail.

Thanks for testing! Just tested here with S-Video, with WinTV USB2
(with interlaced video, generated with vivid + HVR-350).

I was able to reproduce the same issue as you: changing register 0x0d
to 0x47 indeed made it work.

I'm working on a followup patch.

Thanks,
Mauro
