We still need a fix at dm1105, au0828-dvb and maybe > other drivers that call the filtering routines inside IRQ's. Fix the demux, add a worker thread and allow drivers to call it directly. I'm not a big fan of videobuf_dvb or having each driver do it's own thing as an alternative. Fixing the demux... Would this require and extra buffer copy? probably, but it's a trade-off between the amount of spent during code management on a driver by driver basis vs wrestling with videobuf_dvb and all of problems highlighted on the ML over the last 2 years. demux->register_driver() demux->deliver_payload() demux->unregister_driver() Then deprecate sw_filter....N() methods. That would simplify drivers significantly, at the expense of another buffer copy while deliver-payload() clones the buffer into its internal state to be more timely. - Steve _______________________________________________ linux-dvb users mailing list For V4L/DVB development, please use instead linux-media@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
