It is designed to handle a multiple variants of hardware. Adding to +the flexibility of the framework it enables to set which parts of the CEC +protocol processing is handled by the hardware, by the driver and by the +userspace application. + + +The CEC Protocol +---------------- + +The CEC protocol enables consumer electronic devices to communicate with each +other through the HDMI connection. The protocol uses logical addresses in the +communication. The logical address is strictly connected with the functionality +provided by the device. The TV acting as the communication hub is always +assigned address 0. The physical address is determined by the physical +connection between devices. + +The protocol enables control of compatible devices with a single remote. +Synchronous power on/standby, instant playback with changing the content source +on the TV. + +The Kernel Interface +==================== + +CEC Adapter +----------- + +#define CEC_LOG_ADDR_INVALID 0xff + +/* The maximum number of logical addresses one device can be assigned to. + * The CEC 2.0 spec allows for only 2 logical addresses at the moment.

It has a number of +operations that have to be implemented in the driver: adap_enable() enables +or disables the physical adapter, adap_log_addr() tells the driver which +logical address should be configured. This may be called multiple times +to configure multiple logical addresses. Calling adap_enable(false) or +adap_log_addr(CEC_LOG_ADDR_INVALID) will clear all configured logical +addresses. + +The adap_transmit op will setup the hardware to send out the given CEC message. +This will return without waiting for the transmission to finish. The +adap_transmit_timed_out() function is called when the current transmission timed +out and the hardware needs to be informed of this (the hardware should go back +from transmitter to receiver mode). + +The adapter driver will also call into the adapter: it should call +cec_transmit_done() when a cec transfer was finalized and cec_received_msg() +when a new message was received. + +When a message is received the received() op is called. + +The driver has to call cec_create_adapter to initialize the structure. If +the 'caps' argument is non-zero, then it will also create a /dev/cecX +device node to allow userspace to interact with the CEC device. Userspace +can request those capabilities with the CEC_G_CAPS ioctl. + +In order for a CEC adapter to be configured it needs a physical address. +This is normally assigned by the driver. It is either 0.0.0.0 for a TV (aka +video receiver) or it is derived from the EDID that the source received +from the sink. This is normally set by the driver before enabling the CEC +adapter, or it is set from userspace in the case of CEC USB dongles (although +embedded systems might also want to set this manually). + +After enabling the CEC adapter it has to be configured. + +The userspace has to inform the CEC adapter of which type of device it requests +the adapter to identify itself. After this information is set by userspace, the +CEC framework will attempt to to find and claim a logical addresses matching the +requested device type. If none are found, then it will fall back to logical +address Unregistered (15). To clear the logical addresses list from the list the +userspace application should set the num_log_addrs field of struct cec_log_addr +to 0. + +The type of device is set from the userspace with the CEC_S_ADAP_LOG_ADDRS. In +addition, claiming logical addresses can be initiated from the kernel side by +calling the cec_claim_log_addrs function. + +Before the addresses are claimed it is possible to send and receive messages. +Sending all messages is possible as it is up to the userspace to the source +and destination addresses in the message payload. However, only broadcast +messages can be received until a regular logical address is claimed. + +When a CEC message is received the CEC framework will take care of the CEC +core messages CEC_MSG_GET_CEC_VERSION, CEC_MSG_GIVE_PHYS_ADDR and CEC_MSG_ABORT. +Then it will call the received() op (if set), and finally it will queue it +for handling by userspace if create_devnode was true, or send back +FEATURE_ABORT if create_devnode was false. + +Drivers can also use the cec_transmit_msg() call to transmit a message. This +can either be fire-and-forget (the CEC framework will queue up messages in a +transmit queue), or a blocking wait until there is either an error or a +reply to the message. -- 2.1.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-samsung-soc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
