The ir-spi is a simple device driver which supports the connection between an IR LED and the MOSI line of an SPI device. The driver, indeed, uses the SPI framework to stream the raw data provided by userspace through an rc character device. The chardev is handled by the LIRC framework and its functionality basically provides: - write: the driver gets a pulse/space signal and translates it to a binary signal that will be streamed to the IR led through the SPI framework. - set frequency: sets the frequency whith which the data should be sent. This is handle with ioctl with the LIRC_SET_SEND_CARRIER flag (as per lirc documentation) - set duty cycle: this is also handled with ioctl with the LIRC_SET_SEND_DUTY_CYCLE flag. The driver handles duty cycles of 50%, 60%, 70%, 75%, 80% and 90%, calculated on 16bit data. The character device is created under /dev/lircX name, where X is and ID assigned by the LIRC framework. Example of usage: fd = open("/dev/lirc0", O_RDWR); if (fd < 0) return -1; val = 608000; ret = ioctl(fd, LIRC_SET_SEND_CARRIER, &val); if (ret < 0) return -1; val = 60; ret = ioctl(fd, LIRC_SET_SEND_DUTY_CYCLE, &val); if (ret < 0) return -1; n = write(fd, buffer, BUF_LEN); if (n < 0 || n != BUF_LEN) ret = -1; close(fd); Signed-off-by: Andi Shyti <andi.shyti@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Sean Young <sean@mess.org> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com> |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
