We finally added a backport of the v2 series (and also the mce_kbd series) to LibreELEC yesterday and ratcher quickly received 2 bugreports from users using mceusb receivers. Local testing on RPi/gpio-ir and Intel NUC/ite-cir was fine, I've been using the v2 series for over a week without issues on LibreELEC (RPi with kernel 4.14). Here are the links to the bugreports and logs: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=298461&pid=2726684#pid2726684 https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=298462&pid=2726690#pid2726690 Both users are using similar mceusb receivers: Log 1: [ 6.418218] rc rc0: Media Center Ed. eHome Infrared Remote Transceiver (147a:e017) as /devices/platform/soc/3f980000.usb/usb1/1-1/1-1.3/1-1.3:1.0/rc/rc0 [ 6.418358] input: Media Center Ed. eHome Infrared Remote Transceiver (147a:e017) as /devices/platform/soc/3f980000.usb/usb1/1-1/1-1.3/1-1.3:1.0/rc/rc0/input0 [ 6.419443] rc rc0: lirc_dev: driver ir-lirc-codec (mceusb) registered at minor = 0 [ 6.608114] mceusb 1-1.3:1.0: Registered Formosa21 SnowflakeEmulation with mce emulator interface version 1 [ 6.608125] mceusb 1-1.3:1.0: 0 tx ports (0x0 cabled) and 1 rx sensors (0x1 active) Log 2: [ 3.023361] rc rc0: Media Center Ed. eHome Infrared Remote Transceiver (147a:e03e) as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-10/1-10:1.0/rc/rc0 [ 3.023393] input: Media Center Ed. eHome Infrared Remote Transceiver (147a:e03e) as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-10/1-10:1.0/rc/rc0/input11 [ 3.023868] rc rc0: lirc_dev: driver ir-lirc-codec (mceusb) registered at minor = 0 [ 3.119384] input: eventlircd as /devices/virtual/input/input21 [ 3.138625] ip6_tables: (C) 2000-2006 Netfilter Core Team [ 3.196830] mceusb 1-10:1.0: Registered Formosa21 eHome Infrared Transceiver with mce emulator interface version 2 [ 3.196836] mceusb 1-10:1.0: 0 tx ports (0x0 cabled) and 1 rx sensors (0x1 active) In both cases ir-keytable doesn't report any scancodes and the ir-ctl -r output contains very odd long space values where I'd expect a short timeout instead: gap between messages: space 800 pulse 450 space 16777215 space 25400 pulse 2650 space 800 end of last message: space 800 pulse 450 space 16777215 timeout 31750 This patch applied cleanly on 4.14 and the mceusb history from 4.14 to media/master looked rather unsuspicious. I'm not 100% sure if I might have missed a dependency when backporting the patch or if this is indeed an issue of this patch on these particular (or maybe some more) mceusb receivers. so long, Hias > Signed-off-by: Sean Young <sean@xxxxxxxx> > --- > drivers/media/rc/mceusb.c | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ > 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/drivers/media/rc/mceusb.c b/drivers/media/rc/mceusb.c > index 69ba57372c05..c97cb2eb1c5f 100644 > --- a/drivers/media/rc/mceusb.c > +++ b/drivers/media/rc/mceusb.c > @@ -982,6 +982,25 @@ static int mceusb_set_tx_carrier(struct rc_dev *dev, u32 carrier) > return 0; > } > > +static int mceusb_set_timeout(struct rc_dev *dev, unsigned int timeout) > +{ > + u8 cmdbuf[4] = { MCE_CMD_PORT_IR, MCE_CMD_SETIRTIMEOUT, 0, 0 }; > + struct mceusb_dev *ir = dev->priv; > + unsigned int units; > + > + units = DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(timeout, US_TO_NS(MCE_TIME_UNIT)); > + > + cmdbuf[2] = units >> 8; > + cmdbuf[3] = units; > + > + mce_async_out(ir, cmdbuf, sizeof(cmdbuf)); > + > + /* get receiver timeout value */ > + mce_async_out(ir, GET_RX_TIMEOUT, sizeof(GET_RX_TIMEOUT)); > + > + return 0; > +} > + > /* > * Select or deselect the 2nd receiver port. > * Second receiver is learning mode, wide-band, short-range receiver. > @@ -1415,7 +1434,10 @@ static struct rc_dev *mceusb_init_rc_dev(struct mceusb_dev *ir) > rc->dev.parent = dev; > rc->priv = ir; > rc->allowed_protocols = RC_PROTO_BIT_ALL_IR_DECODER; > + rc->min_timeout = US_TO_NS(MCE_TIME_UNIT); > rc->timeout = MS_TO_NS(100); > + rc->max_timeout = 10 * IR_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT; > + rc->s_timeout = mceusb_set_timeout; > if (!ir->flags.no_tx) { > rc->s_tx_mask = mceusb_set_tx_mask; > rc->s_tx_carrier = mceusb_set_tx_carrier; > -- > 2.14.3 >
