Question about dvb-usb driver stream settings

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I've had quite a lot of problems with the existing Cinergy T2-driver
(keyboard hangs sooner or later). Therefore I've converted the existing
driver to use dvb-usb framework as used in the vp7045-driver. The current
version of the converted driver seems to work OK, although the remote
controller code has been disabled for now.

I'm still wondering about the stream-settings and especially if there
exists a predefined maximum value for the stream count-setting ?
If I use too large value in here, the module will load & initialize just
fine but will crash in unregistering phase when unloading.

.stream = {
	.type = USB_BULK,
	.count = 7,
	.endpoint = 0x02,
	.u = {
		.bulk = {
			.buffersize = 4096,
		}
	}
},

The value 7 seems to work for the .count-variable, but
when I was testing larger values (like 30) the module crashed the
kernel in unloading phase:

Just curious to figure out what is the reason for the crash ...
