<id>urn:sha1:03b1930efd3c2320b1dcba76c8af15f7e454919d</id>
<content type='text'>
An earlier regression fix for the mxb driver (V4L/DVB: saa7146_vv: fix
regression where v4l2_device was registered too late) caused a new
regression in the av7110 driver.

Reverted the old fix and fixed the problem in the mxb driver instead.
Tested on mxb and budget-av cards.

The real problem is that the saa7146 framework has separate probe()
and attach() driver callbacks which should be rolled into one. This
is now done for the mxb driver, but others should do the same. Lack
of hardware makes this hard to do, though. I hope to get hold of some
hexium cards and then I can try to improve the framework to prevent
this from happening again.

xawtv using DGA on a Radeon graphics card provides bogus
values to S_FBUF, which will then screw up overlay video:

This fixes the bytesperline value if it is off completely.

<title>include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5a0e3ad6af8660be21ca98a971cd00f331318c05</id>
<content type='text'>
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -&gt; slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Sony makes custome tuners for its GigaPocket line of ivtv based capture
cards.  This adds an entry to the tuner-types list for such tuners.
Parameters are based on experiments by Eric Anderson &lt;rico99@sbcglobal.net&gt;.

v4l2_device_register needs to be called before the i2c subdevs are loaded.
However, it was called afterwards in the saa7146 driver. This caused an oops
when loading the mxb and hexium drivers. The vv_init function is now split
into two: one registers the v4l2_device, the other does the rest of the
initialization. The three drivers that depend on this have been updated to
call the new vv_devinit function.

Thanks to Michael Hunold for reporting this.

A small mistake on the last patch broke demod s-code setup for
XC3028L (firmware 3.2 and upper). Fix it.

There's one reported regression in Australia (DTV7) and some
reported troubles with newer firmwares found on xc3028l chips.
Rework the logic to improve tuner on those cases.
