The code of the dvb-pll driver and the lgh06xf driver is nearly
identical. The main difference is that the lgh06xf driver would set the
AGC TOP value on every tune call. The dvb-pll driver now has the ability
to set the AGC TOP when the front-end device is opened, which is a better
way to go about it. By using this ability of dvb-pll, the lgh06xf driver
is made unnecessary.
There is one other difference. dvb-pll will probe for the presence of an
I2C pll chip by doing a one byte read, the lgh06xf driver did not do
this. In some devices the PLL is not reachable over I2C at the timer the
tuner is attached. Some more initialization, such as firmware loading,
must take place first. None of the devices using a LG-H06xF should have
this problem.
V4L/DVB (5362): Dvb-pll: add code for doing tuner initialization
Some tuners need or benefit from initialization, to change certain
settings from their power on default values.
Typically, tuners with TUA603x PLLs can benefit from setting the AGC TOP
value to something else. This patch includes code to set the AGC TOP to
103 dBuV for the Thomson DTT-761x tuners, which I have experimentally
verified gives the best SNR readings, increasing SNR by about 0.19 dB
over the default value.
Other tuners can make use of this as well. For example, the separate LG
TDVS-H06xF driver's only difference from dvb-pll is this same setting of
AGC TOP value.
V4L/DVB (5361): Dvb-pll: Fix Kconfig files and allow dvb-pll to be optional
A number of drivers selected DVB_PLL when they did not need it, and some
that did need it did not select it.
The DVB_PLL option is given a name and help text, so that it will show up
in the config menu. DVB_PLL support can be turned on if an out-of-tree
driver needs it.
The standard dvb fe customization support is added to dvb-pll.h. Since
all modules which select DVB_PLL do so unconditionally, it is not
possible to turn dvb-pll off when an enabled module selects it, unlike
most of the other frontend/tuner drivers. This is because the users of
dvb-pll have static references to dvb-pll symbols other than the attach
function. If these references are removed, then dvb-pll will be
disablable as the other frontend/tuner drivers are.

V4L/DVB (5326): Allow to set tuner_config in attach inform
This patch move the assignment of the tuner config and the callback
before the check whether it is called in the attach inform.
This solves a module load order issue
V4L/DVB (5323): Updated support for tuner callbacks
This change supplies a more generic version of the tuner callback.
The tuner struct now has a function pointer
int (*tuner_callback) (void *dev, int command, int arg)
additionally to a int config parameter.
both can be set through the TUNER_SET_TYPE_ADDR client call.
Note that the meaning of the parameters depend on the tuner type.
V4L/DVB (5321): Saa7134-dvb: initialize the dvb frontend in dvb_init
The hardware is completely initialized afterwards, especially the
tda10046 has its firmware - which is also necessary in analog mode
of some hybrid boards.
Calling the sleep function afterwards saves power and definitely puts
hybrid boards into analog mode without additional code elsewere.
V4L/DVB (5319): Set tda827x to sleep mode after attach
This change sets the tda827x to sleep mode right after attach in dvb
mode. It is just to save power. For the same reason, the ADC of the
tda10046 gets turned off in sleep mode.
V4L/DVB (5318): Fix tda8290 code for tda827x module
During tuner attach, the pointers to host dev structure
are not set yet, so the I2c adapter needs to be accessed differently.
This patch also does some minor cleanup in the saa7134-dvb module.
V4L/DVB (5315): Tda1004x: check request firmware for NULL ponter again
In older versions, this was used to decide whether to boot from
eeprom or file. This is no longer necessary but the check helps to avoid
an oops with misconfigured cards.
V4L/DVB (5314): Added support for tda827x tuners with preamlifiers
This patch contains
- new tuning code for the tda827xa silicon tuner.
- controls the preamplifier of some boards with this tuner.
- support for the Philips Tiger S hybrid DVB-T reference design.
- reworked the saa7134-dvb modulue to get rid of most of the
small board specific functions.
V4L/DVB (5313): Added a config entry and a gpio function pointer to tuner struct
These entries mainly are to support configurations of the tda827x
silicon tuner with a preamplifier.
The values can be set throgh the attach inform or through
the extended TUNER_SET_TYPE_ADDR client call. The function pointer
will only be updated if the parameter is not NULL.
Since a typecast is necessary to set the pointer, i added a typedef for
this pointer (tuner_gpio_func_t) in tuner.h
There are the following changes:
- separate configuration of IF and GPIOs.
- set GPIOs before firmware load. This helps to avoid I2C address
collisions.
- if desired invert GPIOs at sleep (automatic return to analog mode of card).
- added 3 tuner configuration bytes to config stuct.
- added i2c gate address to config struct.
- moved _state struct declaration to header file to make it accessible
on board layer.
- added "conf_probed" to the state struct to allow i.e. probing for correct
tuner version.
- changed firmware load mechanism to always:
+ check if already loaded
+ try to boot from eeprom
+ try downlad from host
- corrected name of tda10046 firmware image (backward compatible).

Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:con3270_consetup from .data
between 'con3270' (at offset 0x45c8) and 'con3270_fn'
Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:con3215_consetup from .data
between 'con3215' (at offset 0x4678) and
'raw3215_ccw_driver'
Since there is no difference between a non present console setup
function and one that returns only 0 remove them.

Simplify the signal_return function that checks for the two special
system calls sigreturn and rt_sigreturn. No need to do a page table
walk, a call to copy_from_user while disabled page faults will work
as well.

The minor fault path has grown a lot in terms of cycles. In particular
the kprobes hook is very costly. Optimize the path to save a couple of
cycles. If kprobes is enabled more than 300 cycles can be avoided if
kprobes_running() is false.

Generic bug implementation for s390. Will increase the value of the
console output on BUG() statements since registers r0-r5,r14 will
not be clobbered by a printk() call that was previously done before
the illegal instruction of BUG() was hit.
Also implements an architecture specific WARN_ON(). Output of that
could be increased but requires common code change.

This patch adds two improvements to the oops output. First it adds an
additional line after the PSW which decodes the different fields of it.
Second a disassembler is added that decodes the instructions surrounding
the faulting PSW. The output of a test oops now looks like this:
Remove system call glue for sys_clone, sys_fork, sys_vfork, sys_execve,
sys_sigreturn, sys_rt_sigreturn and sys_sigaltstack. Call do_execve from
kernel_execve directly, move pt_regs to the right place and branch to
sysc_return to start the user space program. This removes the last
in-kernel system call.
