RE: [PATCH] media: rc: gpio-ir-recv: add QoS support for cpuidle system

Hi Sean,

Thanks for your hint, I will send a V2 soon according to your suggestions.

We also have a concern, since you are a IR expert, may you can give us answers. With this patch, the first frame once press could not been decoded.
AFAIK, IR protocols have not specify how may frames transmitting once press, is there ang criterion to decide this?

Is it possible that single frame transmitting once pressing? Per my understanding, it will transmit more than one frame.

Best Regards,
Joakim Zhang
