[media] DVB: dvb-net, make the kconfig text helpful

2011-07-27T20:53:09+00:00

Telling the user they can disable an option if they want is not the much useful. Describe what it is good for instead. The text was derived from Mauro's email.

[media] media: Media device node support

2011-03-22T07:52:22+00:00

The media_devnode structure provides support for registering and unregistering character devices using a dynamic major number. Reference counting is handled internally, making device drivers easier to write without having to solve the open/disconnect race condition issue over and over again. The code is based on video/v4l2-dev.c.

[media] dabusb: Move it to staging to be deprecated

2010-12-29T10:17:15+00:00

dabusb driver were conceived as an experimental driver for a test device. The driver never supported any shipped product, and, while there were some updates on it in 2003, for an ancient product, those changes were never submitted upstream. Also, there's no DocBook for its API, nor any upstream discussion. So, better to remove it, on .39. If later needed, we may rescue it from git logs. For now, let's move it to staging.

[media] v4l: kill the BKL

2010-11-09T00:35:57+00:00

All of the hard problems for BKL removal appear to be solved in the v4l-dvb/master tree. This removes the BKL from the various open functions that do not need it, or only use it to protect an open count. The zoran driver is nontrivial in this regard, so I introduce a new mutex that locks both the open/release and the ioctl functions. Someone with access to the hardware can probably improve that by using the existing lock in all cases. Finally, all drivers that still use the locked version of the ioctl function now get called under a new mutex instead of the BKL. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
