V4L/DVB (12761): DocBook: add media API specs
The V4L and DVB API's are there for a long time. however, up to now,
no efforts were done to merge them to kernel DocBook.
This patch adds the current versions of the specs as an unique compendium.

+<para>This system call opens a named audio device (e.g. /dev/dvb/adapter0/audio0)

+ documentation for functions where there is a difference. It does not affect the
+ semantics of the open() call itself. A device opened in blocking mode can later
+ be put into non-blocking mode (and vice versa) using the F_SETFL command
+ of the fcntl system call. This is a standard system call, documented in the Linux
+ manual page for fcntl. Only one user can open the Audio Device in O_RDWR
+ mode. All other attempts to open the device in this mode will fail, and an error
+ code will be returned. If the Audio Device is opened in O_RDONLY mode, the
+ only ioctl call that can be used is AUDIO_GET_STATUS. All other call will

+<title>History</title>
+
+<para>The first API for DVB cards we used at Convergence in late 1999
+was an extension of the Video4Linux API which was primarily developed
+for frame grabber cards. As such it was not really well suited to be
+used for DVB cards and their new features like recording MPEG streams
+and filtering several section and PES data streams at the same time.
+</para>
+
+<para>In early 2000, we were approached by Nokia with a proposal for a
+new standard Linux DVB API. As a commitment to the development of
+terminals based on open standards, Nokia and Convergence made it
+available to all Linux developers and published it on <emphasis
+role="tt">http://www.linuxtv.org/</emphasis> in September 2000.
+Convergence is the maintainer of the Linux DVB API. Together with the
+LinuxTV community (i.e. you, the reader of this document), the Linux DVB
+API will be constantly reviewed and improved. With the Linux driver for
+the Siemens/Hauppauge DVB PCI card Convergence provides a first
+implementation of the Linux DVB API.</para>

+ <listitem>
+
+<para>Frontend consisting of tuner and DVB demodulator</para>
+
+<para>Here the raw signal reaches the DVB hardware from a satellite dish
+or antenna or directly from cable. The frontend down-converts and
+demodulates this signal into an MPEG transport stream (TS). In case of a
+satellite frontend, this includes a facility for satellite equipment
+control (SEC), which allows control of LNB polarization, multi feed
+switches or dish rotors.</para>
+

+ <listitem>
+
+<para>Conditional Access (CA) hardware like CI adapters and smartcard slots
+</para>
+
+<para>The complete TS is passed through the CA hardware. Programs to
+which the user has access (controlled by the smart card) are decoded in
+real time and re-inserted into the TS.</para>
+
+</listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>Demultiplexer which filters the incoming DVB stream</para>
+
+<para>The demultiplexer splits the TS into its components like audio and
+video streams. Besides usually several of such audio and video streams
+it also contains data streams with information about the programs
+offered in this or other streams of the same provider.</para>
+
+</listitem>
+<listitem>
+
+<para>MPEG2 audio and video decoder</para>
+
+<para>The main targets of the demultiplexer are the MPEG2 audio and
+video decoders. After decoding they pass on the uncompressed audio and
+video to the computer screen or (through a PAL/NTSC encoder) to a TV
+set.</para>

+<para><xref linkend="stb_components" /> shows a crude schematic of the control and data flow

+
+<para>On a DVB PCI card not all of these have to be present since some
+functionality can be provided by the main CPU of the PC (e.g. MPEG
+picture and sound decoding) or is not needed (e.g. for data-only uses
+like “internet over satellite”). Also not every card or STB
+provides conditional access hardware.</para>

+<title>Linux DVB Devices</title>
+
+<para>The Linux DVB API lets you control these hardware components
+through currently six Unix-style character devices for video, audio,
+frontend, demux, CA and IP-over-DVB networking. The video and audio
+devices control the MPEG2 decoder hardware, the frontend device the
+tuner and the DVB demodulator. The demux device gives you control over
+the PES and section filters of the hardware. If the hardware does not
+support filtering these filters can be implemented in software. Finally,
+the CA device controls all the conditional access capabilities of the
+hardware. It can depend on the individual security requirements of the
+platform, if and how many of the CA functions are made available to the
+application through this device.</para>

+<title>Demux API</title>
+<para>The demux API should be implemented for each demux in the system. It is used to select
+the TS source of a demux and to manage the demux resources. When the demux
+client allocates a resource via the demux API, it receives a pointer to the API of that
+resource.
+</para>
+<para>Each demux receives its TS input from a DVB front-end or from memory, as set via the
+demux API. In a system with more than one front-end, the API can be used to select one of
+the DVB front-ends as a TS source for a demux, unless this is fixed in the HW platform. The
+demux API only controls front-ends regarding their connections with demuxes; the APIs
+used to set the other front-end parameters, such as tuning, are not defined in this
+document.
+</para>
+<para>The functions that implement the abstract interface demux should be defined static or
+module private and registered to the Demux Directory for external access. It is not necessary
+to implement every function in the demux_t struct, however (for example, a demux interface
+might support Section filtering, but not TS or PES filtering). The API client is expected to
+check the value of any function pointer before calling the function: the value of NULL means
+“function not available”.
+</para>
+<para>Whenever the functions of the demux API modify shared data, the possibilities of lost
+update and race condition problems should be addressed, e.g. by protecting parts of code with
+mutexes. This is especially important on multi-processor hosts.
+</para>
+<para>Note that functions called from a bottom half context must not sleep, at least in the 2.2.x
+kernels. Even a simple memory allocation can result in a kernel thread being put to sleep if
+swapping is needed. For example, the Linux kernel calls the functions of a network device
+interface from a bottom half context. Thus, if a demux API function is called from network
+device code, the function must not sleep.

+<title>Demux Callback API</title>
+<para>This kernel-space API comprises the callback functions that deliver filtered data to the

+from the demux code.
+</para>
+<para>The function pointers of this abstract interface are not packed into a structure as in the
+other demux APIs, because the callback functions are registered and used independent
+of each other. As an example, it is possible for the API client to provide several
+callback functions for receiving TS packets and no callbacks for PES packets or
+sections.
+</para>
+<para>The functions that implement the callback API need not be re-entrant: when a demux
+driver calls one of these functions, the driver is not allowed to call the function again before
+the original call returns. If a callback is triggered by a hardware interrupt, it is recommended
+to use the Linux “bottom half” mechanism or start a tasklet instead of making the callback
+function call directly from a hardware interrupt.

+<para>This function, provided by the client of the demux API, is called from the

+ called for each received section; however, it is also possible to deliver multiple

+ implementation then buffers the received data. The size of the circular buffer
+ can be configured using the set() function in the Section Feed API. If there

+<title>DVB Video Device</title>
+<para>The DVB video device controls the MPEG2 video decoder of the DVB hardware. It
+can be accessed through <emphasis role="tt">/dev/dvb/adapter0/video0</emphasis>. Data types and and
+ioctl definitions can be accessed by including <emphasis role="tt">linux/dvb/video.h</emphasis> in your
+application.
+</para>
+<para>Note that the DVB video device only controls decoding of the MPEG video stream, not
+its presentation on the TV or computer screen. On PCs this is typically handled by an
+associated video4linux device, e.g. <emphasis role="tt">/dev/video</emphasis>, which allows scaling and defining output
+windows.
+</para>
+<para>Some DVB cards don’t have their own MPEG decoder, which results in the omission of
+the audio and video device as well as the video4linux device.
+</para>
+<para>The ioctls that deal with SPUs (sub picture units) and navigation packets are only
+supported on some MPEG decoders made for DVD playback.
