This patch tries to add DVBv5 statistics support to the mn88473 DVB frontend driver. Special thanks to Benjamin Larsson (who has documented the registers in the LinuxTV wiki: [0]) and to a user with the nickname "dongs" in the #linuxtv IRC channel (who provided more details about the MN88473). There are multiple reasons why I decided to send this as RFC: - I do not have any hardware signal generator, so I can only test with what I have available - a quick test on DVB-C and DVB-T shows that CNR seems correct (DVB-T2 is untested because it is not available in my area... yet) - signal strength seems to be too low (compared to my em28xx device) - I am not sure whether my implementation for bit errors and block errors is correct [0] https://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Panasonic_MN88472 Martin Blumenstingl (1): media: mn88473: add DVBv5 statistics support drivers/media/dvb-frontends/mn88473.c | 485 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- drivers/media/dvb-frontends/mn88473_priv.h | 1 + 2 files changed, 445 insertions(+), 41 deletions(-) -- 2.10.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
