2022-01-28media: lirc: report ir receiver overflowSean Young
If the driver reports that the hardware had an overflow, report this to userspace. It would be nice to know when this happens, and not just get a long space. This change has been tested with lircd, ir-ctl, and ir-keytable. Signed-off-by: Sean Young <sean@mess.org> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@kernel.org>
2021-12-14media: lirc: always send timeout reportsSean Young
Without timeout reports, it is impossible to decode many protocols since it is not known when the transmission ends. timeout reports are sent by default, but can be turned off. There is no reason to turn them off, and I cannot find any software which does this, so we can safely remove it. This makes the ioctl LIRC_SET_REC_TIMEOUT_REPORTS a no-op.

2020-09-01media: docs: use the new SPDX header for GFDL-1.1 on *.rst filesMauro Carvalho Chehab
SPDX v3.10 gained support for GFDL-1.1 with no invariant sections: https://spdx.org/licenses/GFDL-1.1-no-invariants-or-later.html So, remove the license text, replacing them by this new SPDX license. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
2020-04-14media: docs: move uAPI book to userspace-api/mediaMauro Carvalho Chehab
Since 2017, there is an space reserved for userspace API, created by changeset 1d596dee3862 ("docs: Create a user-space API guide"). As the media subsystem was one of the first subsystems to use Sphinx, until this patch, we were keeping things on a separate place. Let's just use the new location, as having all uAPI altogether will likely make things easier for developers. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
