The bttv driver function which handles switching of the video standard
(set_tvnorm() in bttv-driver.c) includes a check which can optionally
also reset the cropping configuration to a default value. It is
"optional" based on a comparison of the cropcap parameters of the
previous vs the newly requested video standard. The comparison is
being done with a memcmp(), a function which only returns a true value
if the comparison actually fails.
This if-statement appears to have been written to assume wrong
memcmp() semantics. That is, it was re-initializing the cropping
configuration only if the new video standard did NOT have different
cropcap values. That doesn't make any sense. One definitely should
reset things if the cropcap parameters are different - if there's any
comparison to made at all.
The effect of this problem was that a transition from, say, PAL to
NTSC would leave in place old cropping setup that made sense for the
PAL geometry but not for NTSC. If the application doesn't care about
cropping it also won't try to reset the cropping configuration,
resulting in an improperly cropped video frame. In the case I was
testing this actually caused black video frames to be displayed.
Another interesting effect of this bug is that if one does something
which does NOT change the video standard and this function is run,
then the cropping setup gets reset anyway - again because of the
backwards comparison. It turns out that just running anything which
merely opens and closes the video device node (e.g. v4l-info) will
cause this to happen. One can argue that simply opening the device
node and not doing anything to it should not mess with any of its
state - but because of this behavior, any TV app which does such
things (e.g. xawtv) probably therefore doesn't see the problem.
The solution is to fix the sense of the if-statement. It's easy to
see how this mistake could have been made given how memcmp() works.
The patch is therefore removal of a single "!" character from the
if-statement in set_tvnorm in bttv-driver.c.

There is a subtle interaction in the bttv driver which can result in
fields being repeatedly processed out of order. This is a problem
specifically when running in V4L2_FIELD_ALTERNATE mode (probably the
most common case).
1. The determination of which fields are associated with which buffers
happens in videobuf, before the bttv driver gets a chance to queue the
corresponding DMA. Thus by the point when the DMA is queued for a
given buffer, the algorithm has to do the queuing based on the
buffer's already assigned field type - not based on which field is
"next" in the video stream.
2. The driver normally tries to queue both the top and bottom fields
at the same time (see bttv_irq_next_video()). It tries to sort out
top vs bottom by looking at the field type for the next 2 available
buffers and assigning them appropriately.
3. However the bttv driver *always* actually processes the top field
first. There's even an interrupt set aside for specifically
recognizing when the top field has been processed so that it can be
marked done even while the bottom field is still being DMAed.
Given all of the above, if one gets into a situation where
bttv_irq_next_video() gets entered when the first available buffer has
been pre-associated as a bottom field, then the function is going to
process the buffers out of order. That first available buffer will be
put into the bottom field slot and the buffer after that will be put
into the top field slot. Problem is, since the top field is always
processed first by the driver, then that second buffer (the one after
the first available buffer) will be the first one to be finished.
Because of the strict fifo handling of all video buffers, then that
top field won't be seen by the app until after the bottom field is
also processed. Worse still, the app will get back the
chronologically later bottom field first, *before* the top field is
received. The buffer's timestamps will even be backwards.
While not fatal to most TV apps, this behavior can subtlely degrade
userspace deinterlacing (probably will cause jitter). That's probably
why it has gone unnoticed. But it will also cause serious problems if
the app in question discards all but the latest received buffer (a
latency minimizing tactic) - causing one field to only ever be
displayed since the other is now always late. Unfortunately once you
get into this state, you're stuck this way - because having consumed
two buffers, now the next time around the "first" available buffer
will again be a bottom field and the same thing happens.
How can we get into this state? In a perfect world, where there's
always a few free buffers queued to the driver, it should be
impossible. However if something disrupts streaming, e.g. if the
userspace app can't queue free buffers fast enough for a moment due
perhaps to a CPU scheduling glitch, then the driver can get
momentarily starved and some number of fields will be dropped. That's
OK. But if an odd number of fields get dropped, then that "first"
available buffer might be the bottom field and now we're stuck...
This patch fixes that problem by deliberately only setting up a single
field for one frame if we don't get a top field as the first available
buffer. By purposely skipping the other field, then we only handle a
single buffer thus bringing things back into proper sync (i.e. top
field first) for the next frame. To do this we just drop the few
lines in bttv_irq_next_video() that attempt to set up the second
buffer when that second buffer isn't for the bottom field.
This is definitely a problem in when in V4L2_FIELD_ALTERNATE mode. In
the other modes this change either has no effect or doesn't harm
things any further anyway.

- On a lower frequency (511.25 Mhz) the picture is always sharp, but
lacks colour.
- No sound problems.
- radio untested.
Digital:
- DVB-T/H stream reception works.
- Would expect to see some more channels in the higher frequency region.

1) Current version of display driver defined vpif register
space as part for vpif display platform driver resource
This is not correct since vpif is common across capture
and display drivers. So the resource iomap function is
moved to this module
2) Since there are common registers, a spinlock is added for
mutual exclusion.

in each of this channel. Both MMAP and USERPTR io mechanism
are supported. Currently buffer allocation happens at REQBUF
ioctl request. Since USERPTR IO is supported, this is not an
issue since user applications can allocate buffers and pass
the user space address to the driver. Following are TODOs :-
1) Adding support for allocation of buffers at init
2) VBI/HBI data service
