Re: [PATCH 1/9] v4l2: rename V4L2_TUNER_ADC to V4L2_TUNER_SDR

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Antti,

I am not so sure about this. The situation with TUNER_ADC is similar to TUNER_RADIO:
we use TUNER_RADIO for radio modulators, even though it is clearly not a tuner type.

Basically the tuner type is interpreted as going the reverse direction for a modulator.

Calling it TUNER_SDR means its use is restricted to SDR devices, but perhaps there will
be other non-SDR devices in the future that have an ADC.

I wonder if we shouldn't introduce something like this:

enum v4l2_modulator_type {
	V4L2_MODULATOR_RADIO = V4L2_TUNER_RADIO,
	V4L2_MODULATOR_DAC = V4L2_TUNER_ADC,
	V4L2_MODULATOR_RF = V4L2_TUNER_RF,	/* is this correct? */
};

That way apps will have modulator aliases that make sense.

Mauro, what do you think? This is your area of expertise.

Regards,

	Hans
