These patches add the support for sending IR remote controller codes on the Nokia N900 phone. The code is taken from the public N900 kernel release and modified to work with today's kernel. The code has been tested with a real Nokia N900 device and confirmed to work. I can identify only one known issue; The IR pulses being sent become *veeery* long if the device chooses to go into any sleep modes during transmitting the IR pulses. The driver makes an attempt to set up PM latency constraints, but apparently those don't apply as there is currently only no-op PM layer available. Therefore, I guess this driver doesn't actually work properly unless there is some background load that prevents the device from enterint sleep modes or the sleep modes are disabled altogether. However, once a proper PM layer implementation becomes available, I expect this problem to resolve itself. The same code used to work with the actual N900 kernel that has those implemented. Any comments regarding the patches are welcome. I guess media list won't take in omap patches and omap list doesn't take media patches. So I wrote the patches so that they can be applied independently. If you want me to remove the #ifdef hacks from the board file (that is needed to break the build dependency between the patches), then the ir-rx51.c patch needs to be applied before the board file patch. But I though it would be more flexible this way. I'm open to suggestions on how you are willing to accept the patches. --- Changes since v1: - Move ir-rx51.h into include/media directory Timo Kokkonen (2): media: rc: Introduce RX51 IR transmitter driver ARM: mach-omap2: board-rx51-peripherals: Add lirc-rx51 data arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-rx51-peripherals.c | 30 ++ drivers/media/rc/Kconfig | 10 + drivers/media/rc/Makefile | 1 + drivers/media/rc/ir-rx51.c | 496 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/media/ir-rx51.h | 10 + 5 files changed, 547 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) create mode 100644 drivers/media/rc/ir-rx51.c create mode 100644 include/media/ir-rx51.h -- 1.7.8.6 -- 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
