Such hardware quirk hack should clearly be enabled by a (new) config flag (see the bits at the top of cxd2841er.h) which consumer drivers can set if there are known issues with them. The reported issue is nothing every piece of hardware with a cxd28xx demod soldered on has - I believe the JokerTV devices which Abylay originally made this driver for suffers from this and at least the Digital Devices C/C2/T/T2/I boards (cxd2837/43/54) definitely don't have any issues (and I use them regularily in my TVheadend server which is frequently used). So please hide this behind a flag named ie. "CXD2841ER_STAT_TIMEOUT" and enable that in the USB drivers which the affected USB sticks use. > Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@xxxxxxxxxx> > --- > drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cxd2841er.c | 68 +++++++++++++++++++++++++ > 1 file changed, 68 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cxd2841er.c b/drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cxd2841er.c > index 1b30cf570803..218da631df19 100644 > --- a/drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cxd2841er.c > +++ b/drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cxd2841er.c > @@ -60,6 +60,13 @@ struct cxd2841er_priv { > enum cxd2841er_xtal xtal; > enum fe_caps caps; > u32 flags; > + > + unsigned long ber_interval; > + unsigned long ucb_interval; > + > + unsigned long ber_time; > + unsigned long ucb_time; > + unsigned long snr_time; > }; > > static const struct cxd2841er_cnr_data s_cn_data[] = { > @@ -1941,6 +1948,10 @@ static void cxd2841er_read_ber(struct dvb_frontend *fe) > struct cxd2841er_priv *priv = fe->demodulator_priv; > u32 ret, bit_error = 0, bit_count = 0; > > + if (priv->ber_time && > + (!time_after(jiffies, priv->ber_time))) > + return; > + > dev_dbg(&priv->i2c->dev, "%s()\n", __func__); > switch (p->delivery_system) { > case SYS_DVBC_ANNEX_A: > @@ -1953,9 +1964,15 @@ static void cxd2841er_read_ber(struct dvb_frontend *fe) > break; > case SYS_DVBS: > ret = cxd2841er_mon_read_ber_s(priv, &bit_error, &bit_count); > + > + if (!priv->ber_interval && p->symbol_rate) > + priv->ber_interval = (10000000) / (p->symbol_rate / 1000); > break; > case SYS_DVBS2: > ret = cxd2841er_mon_read_ber_s2(priv, &bit_error, &bit_count); > + > + if (!priv->ber_interval && p->symbol_rate) > + priv->ber_interval = (10000000) / (p->symbol_rate / 1000); > break; > case SYS_DVBT: > ret = cxd2841er_read_ber_t(priv, &bit_error, &bit_count); > @@ -1978,6 +1995,21 @@ static void cxd2841er_read_ber(struct dvb_frontend *fe) > p->post_bit_error.stat[0].scale = FE_SCALE_NOT_AVAILABLE; > p->post_bit_count.stat[0].scale = FE_SCALE_NOT_AVAILABLE; > } > + > + /* > + * If the per-delivery system doesn't specify, set a default timeout > + * that will wait for ~12.5 seconds for 8MHz channels > + */ > + if (!priv->ber_interval && p->bandwidth_hz) > + priv->ber_interval = (100000000) / (p->bandwidth_hz / 1000); > + > + if (priv->ber_interval < 1000) > + priv->ber_interval = 1000; > + > +// HACK: > +dev_info(&priv->i2c->dev, "BER interval: %d ms", priv->ber_interval); > + > + priv->ber_time = jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(priv->ber_interval); > } > > static void cxd2841er_read_signal_strength(struct dvb_frontend *fe) > @@ -2037,6 +2069,16 @@ static void cxd2841er_read_snr(struct dvb_frontend *fe) > struct dtv_frontend_properties *p = &fe->dtv_property_cache; > struct cxd2841er_priv *priv = fe->demodulator_priv; > > + if (priv->snr_time && > + (!time_after(jiffies, priv->snr_time))) > + return; > + > + /* Preventing asking SNR more than once per second */ > + priv->snr_time = jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(1000); > + > +// HACK > +dev_info(&priv->i2c->dev, "SNR interval: %d ms", 1000); > + > dev_dbg(&priv->i2c->dev, "%s()\n", __func__); > switch (p->delivery_system) { > case SYS_DVBC_ANNEX_A: > @@ -2081,6 +2123,10 @@ static void cxd2841er_read_ucblocks(struct dvb_frontend *fe) > struct cxd2841er_priv *priv = fe->demodulator_priv; > u32 ucblocks = 0; > > + if (priv->ucb_time && > + (!time_after(jiffies, priv->ucb_time))) > + return; > + > dev_dbg(&priv->i2c->dev, "%s()\n", __func__); > switch (p->delivery_system) { > case SYS_DVBC_ANNEX_A: > @@ -2105,6 +2151,21 @@ static void cxd2841er_read_ucblocks(struct dvb_frontend *fe) > > p->block_error.stat[0].scale = FE_SCALE_COUNTER; > p->block_error.stat[0].uvalue = ucblocks; > + > + /* > + * If the per-delivery system doesn't specify, set a default timeout > + * that will wait 20-30 seconds > + */ > + if (!priv->ucb_interval && p->bandwidth_hz) > + priv->ucb_interval = (100 * 204 * 1000 * 8) / p->bandwidth_hz; > + > + if (priv->ucb_interval < 1000) > + priv->ucb_interval = 1000; > + > +// HACK: > +dev_info(&priv->i2c->dev, "UCB interval: %d ms", priv->ucb_interval); > + > + priv->ucb_time = jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(priv->ucb_interval); > } > > static int cxd2841er_dvbt2_set_profile( > @@ -3360,6 +3421,13 @@ static int cxd2841er_set_frontend_s(struct dvb_frontend *fe) > p->post_bit_error.stat[0].scale = FE_SCALE_NOT_AVAILABLE; > p->post_bit_count.stat[0].scale = FE_SCALE_NOT_AVAILABLE; > > + /* Reset the wait for jiffies logic */ > + priv->ber_interval = 0; > + priv->ucb_interval = 0; > + priv->ber_time = 0; > + priv->ucb_time = 0; > + priv->snr_time = 0; > + > return ret; > } > Best regards, Daniel Scheller -- https://github.com/herrnst
