2008-11-08cx18: Further changes to improve mailbox protocol integrity & performnceAndy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> All waits for cx18 mailbox API commands are now uninterruptable. Added code to collect mailbox ack statistics. Tweaked timeouts based on collected stats and video vertical frame and field rates. Priority: normal Signed-off-by: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net>
2008-11-07cx18: Improve handling of outgoing mailboxes detected to be busyAndy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> cx18: Improve handling of outgoing mailboxes detected to be busy. When encountering a busy mailbox, sleep instead of polling, and wait for interrupt or timeout. If the mailbox is still busy, force it free. When sending commands, make sure we never create a situation where we mark the mailbox busy upon sending, and ensure we always have a method to cleanly recover from a busy mailbox.

2008-11-05cx18: Add outgoing mailbox mutexes and check for ack via waitq vs pollAndy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> Add mutexes to ensure exclusive access for outgoing driver to CX23418 mailboxes. Also wait on a waitq for mailbox acknowledgement from the CX23418 instead of polling. Priority: high Signed-off-by: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net>
2008-11-01cx18: Mark CX18_CPU_DE_RELEASE_MDL as a slow API callAndy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> cx18: Mark CX18_CPU_DE_RELEASE_MDL as a slow API call. Give the encoder time to complete the MDL release before destroying the encoder internal task. This avoids an encoder lockup on the next digital capture and error messages about buffers being returned for an inactive encoder task handle.

2008-10-31cx18: Fix write retries for registers that always change - part 2.Andy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> cx18: Fix write retries for registers that always change - part 2. Some registers, especially interrupt related ones, will never read back the value just written. Modified interrupt register readback checks to make sure the intended effect was achieved. Priority: high Signed-off-by: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net>
2008-10-25cx18: Disable write retries for registers that always change - part 1.Andy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> cx18: Disable write retries for registers that always change - part 1. Interrupt related registers will likely not read back the value we just wrote. Disable retries for these registers for now to avoid accidently discarding interrupts. More intelligent read back verification criteria are needed for these and other registers (e.g. GPIO line registers), which will be addressed in subsequent changes.

2008-08-30cx18: Create cx18_ specific wrappers for all pci mmio accessesors.Andy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> cx18: Create cx18_ specific wrappers for all pci mmio accessesors. This is a first step in instrumenting all CX23418 PCI bus IO, to debug problems with accessing the CX23418's PCI memory mapped IO. Priority: normal Signed-off-by: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net>
2008-08-23cx18: Have CX23418 release buffers at end of capture.Andy Walls
From: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net> cx18: Have CX23418 release buffers at end of capture. The CX23418 reuses task handles so we need to have it release the buffers associated with a task handle at the end of a capture. If we don't, buffer ids used for one type of stream in the driver (MPEG, TS, PCM), could be used for another type of stream by the CX23418, if a previously used handle is assigned to a different type of stream. The driver would drop valid buffers when this happened. Priority: normal Signed-off-by: Andy Walls <awalls@radix.net>

2008-04-28cx18: new driver for the Conexant CX23418 MPEG encoder chipHans Verkuil
From: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl> Many thanks to Steve Toth from Hauppauge and Nattu Dakshinamurthy from Conexant for their support. I am in particular thankful to Hauppauge since without their help this driver would not exist. It should also be noted that Steve did the work to get the DVB part up and running. Thank you!
