WhoWhatWhen
***roderick_ changes his alias to Thunderbird
ribalda_ changes his alias to ribalda
[22:58]
................. (idle for 1h23mn)
hverkuilmchehab: still reviewing your patch series. I'll let you know here when I'm done, and then you can comment on my comments :-) [12:11]
pinchartlI'll review it too, I swear :-)
but I'll likely have to spend the day at the office tomorrow
(not my office unfortunately)
[12:13]
.............. (idle for 1h9mn)
hverkuilmchehab: BTW, I'm done reviewing. Sorry, forgot to mention that :-) [13:22]
mchehabhverkuil, pinchartl: those simple renaming patches show how we agree to disagree ;)
in summary, we should decide if we'll either name entity types based of their hardware functions
or based on the Linux Kernel APIs used
and then use the properties API to do the other mapping
[13:23]
hverkuilsee my last post with brainstorming notes.
for a third option.
[13:24]
mchehabwhat's the subject?
it seems it didn't arrive here yet
[13:26]
hverkuilRe: [PATCH 07/18] media controller: rename the tuner entity
Hmm, it arrive on linux-media
arrived
[13:27]
mchehabok... I'm seeing it now
yes, we can do that...
but then we'll double the number of entities at DVB side
not a big deal, but still weird
[13:28]
hverkuilI'll have to think about this some more, but I am much better at that in the morning :-) [13:29]
mchehabI mean: we would have a set of ENT_T_DEVNODE_DVB_(FE|CA|NET|DEMUX|DVR) for the device nodes...
and ENT_T_HW_(TUNER|DEMOD|DEMUX|SEC) for the hardware pieces
hmm... I'm not against that
it could actually make sense
it actually solves some weird things at the DVB side...
[13:30]
hverkuilyou also no longer have the problem of one entity needing to expose multiple device nodes (e.g. the pcm and ctl nodes for alsa). [13:32]
mchehablike having 3 different device nodes to control/use the HW_DEMUX (demux, dvb and net devnodes) [13:33]
hverkuilindeed.
And you can have a single DMA entity that links to a vbi and a video node, which is how the hardware really works.
there are likely backwards compatibility problems with existing MC drivers.
back in 15 mins or so.
[13:33]
mchehabpinchartl, sailus: hverkuil's proposal makes sense to me [13:36]
.... (idle for 18mn)
hverkuilback, but not for long [13:54]
.... (idle for 15mn)
pinchartlmchehab: I'll check the e-mails as soon as I can
but I'm now in Taiwan rushing to get a demo ready in time
[14:09]
mchehabok [14:13]
................................................................. (idle for 5h20mn)
shuahhverkuil, mchehab pinchartl: sent out alsa media controller patch series [19:33]
........... (idle for 50mn)
mchehabshuah: good, thanks
btw, my article about the MC needs on DVB was just published publicly: http://blogs.s-osg.org/media-controller-support-for-dvb-part-1/
