>From Ian's e-mail: When a device is opened the firmware state will be checked. If it isn't responding then the open will fail with -EIO. Due to the nature of the hardware, a single failed check will block everything since we don't know exactly what has failed. A side effect of this is the blocking of debug access, so an additional debug level has been created which allows the block to be bypassed. Andy Walls' modifications: I modified Ian's patch to add a separate fw_debug module parameter to change the driver's behavior, as opposed to using the normal debug module parameter. The fw_debug module parameter is only available when CONFIG_VIDEO_ADV_DEBUG is set. I also made some minor whitespace adjustments and changed some warning messages to be a bit more specific. s/happy/glad/g Signed-off-by: Ian Armstrong <ian@iarmst.demon.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Andy Walls <awalls@md.metrocast.net> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com> |
