FE_GET_FRONTEND failed - Operation not supported #11

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
Set up the current vtunerd (hg:54657d0f37c8), vtunerc(hg:54657d0f37c8), and 
vtuner kernel ext (hg:ace6c943cc40). Then try to share a dvb-S2 card and do a 
channel scan. The Scan hangs while vtunerd displays the following warning code:
vtunerd: [26000 ../../vtuner-dvb-3.c:138]  warn: FE_GET_FRONTEND failed - 
Operation not supported

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
vtunerd (hg:54657d0f37c8), vtunerc(hg:54657d0f37c8), and vtuner kernel ext 
(hg:ace6c943cc40)
Server (vtunerd):
    Debian squeeze i686 with kernel 2.6.32-5-686
Client (vtunerc):

Please provide any additional information below.

Sorry, my stupid computer posted the issue before I was able to complete it. So 
here goes the rest:

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
vtunerd (hg:54657d0f37c8), vtunerc(hg:54657d0f37c8), and vtuner kernel ext 
(hg:ace6c943cc40)
Server (vtunerd):
    Debian squeeze i686 with kernel 2.6.32-5-686
    the dvb-S2 device is a Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 (rev 01)
Client (vtunerc):
    Debian squeeze amd64 with kernel 2.6.32-5-amd64

Please provide any additional information below.
I appended the vtunerd log.

Checking the bug I just realized that no every tuner frontend driver implements 
GET_FRONTEND operation, so the bug is driver specific.

Let me check if I can get similar information using v5 api calls.

i had identical problem - i compiled vtunerd for mips architecture - i have 
DVB-S2 card connected via USB to Netgear 3700v2 with OpenWRT. 

After succesfull client-server connection when i try to use szap-s2 on the 
server i got in logs:
vtunerd: [13724 ../../vtuner-dmm-3.c:152]  info: FE_SET_FRONTEND parameters: fr
eq:1142000 inversion:2 SR:27500000 FEC:3

vtunerd: [13724 ../../vtuner-dmm-3.c:144]  warn: FE_GET_FRONTEND failed

szap-s2 on the openwrt works well (locally). And the second thin is if i kill 
vtunerd on client on server vtunerd dies with "segmentation fault"

my client is Ubuntu 10.04.3 32bit.

Maybe you can see there what to use v5 api:

I'm working together with the issue reporter and wanted to add which card and 
driver we are using:

$ lspci -k
[...]
02:07.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 (rev 01)
    Subsystem: Technotrend Systemtechnik GmbH Device 101c

I don't know if it can help, but it looks like nice workaround (if works)

This last line show me that you have applied my wrong patch (without line "ret

Please recheck, that you have applied correct patch.

But now i have another problem...

Great, so I'm treating your report like "BUG SOLVED".

Only FYI, in meantime, I did some emulation of missing FE_GET_FRONTEND
ioctl call. But it make code too much complex. I don't like
to add such big workaround to the vtuner only because driver developers
did theirs job not fully (implementing of FE_GET_FRONTEND is usually
only matter of few lines of code).

Here is the code which emulate FE_GET_FRONTEND by using cache values:

So fixed by reseting required values to zero (will commit
it to the repository asap).

The only real solution should be to add missing FE_GET_FRONTEND
ioctl callback to the device driver. 

>!!< I recommend to use only the devices which have properly >!!<
>!!< implemented such callback >!!<

You can check that by looking in the source and see
if dvb_frontend_ops member .get_frontend is set
(compare with stv0900_core.c or zl10353.c)
