SPDX-License-Identifier: GFDL-1.1-no-invariants-or-later + +.. _lirc_dev_intro: + +************ +Introduction +************ + +LIRC stands for Linux Infrared Remote Control. The LIRC device interface is +a bi-directional interface for transporting raw IR and decoded scancodes +data between userspace and kernelspace. Fundamentally, it is just a chardev +(/dev/lircX, for X = 0, 1, 2, ...), with a number of standard struct +file_operations defined on it. With respect to transporting raw IR and +decoded scancodes to and fro, the essential fops are read, write and ioctl. + +It is also possible to attach a BPF program to a LIRC device for decoding +raw IR into scancodes. + +Example dmesg output upon a driver registering w/LIRC: + +.. code-block:: none + + $ dmesg |grep lirc_dev + rc rc0: lirc_dev: driver mceusb registered at minor = 0, raw IR receiver, raw IR transmitter + +What you should see for a chardev: + +.. code-block:: none + + $ ls -l /dev/lirc* + crw-rw---- 1 root root 248, 0 Jul 2 22:20 /dev/lirc0 + +Note that the package `v4l-utils <https://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git/>`_ +contains tools for working with LIRC devices: + + - ir-ctl: can receive raw IR and transmit IR, as well as query LIRC + device features. + + - ir-keytable: can load keymaps; allows you to set IR kernel protocols; load + BPF IR decoders and test IR decoding. Some BPF IR decoders are also + provided. + +.. _lirc_modes: + +********** +LIRC modes +********** + +LIRC supports some modes of receiving and sending IR codes, as shown +on the following table. + +.. _lirc-mode-scancode: +.. _lirc-scancode-flag-toggle: +.. _lirc-scancode-flag-repeat: + +``LIRC_MODE_SCANCODE`` + + This mode is for both sending and receiving IR. + + For transmitting (aka sending), create a ``struct lirc_scancode`` with + the desired scancode set in the ``scancode`` member, :c:type:`rc_proto` + set to the :ref:`IR protocol <Remote_controllers_Protocols>`, and all other + members set to 0. Write this struct to the lirc device. + + For receiving, you read ``struct lirc_scancode`` from the LIRC device. + The ``scancode`` field is set to the received scancode and the + :ref:`IR protocol <Remote_controllers_Protocols>` is set in + :c:type:`rc_proto`. If the scancode maps to a valid key code, this is set + in the ``keycode`` field, else it is set to ``KEY_RESERVED``. + + The ``flags`` can have ``LIRC_SCANCODE_FLAG_TOGGLE`` set if the toggle + bit is set in protocols that support it (e.g. rc-5 and rc-6), or + ``LIRC_SCANCODE_FLAG_REPEAT`` for when a repeat is received for protocols + that support it (e.g. nec). + + In the Sanyo and NEC protocol, if you hold a button on remote, rather than + repeating the entire scancode, the remote sends a shorter message with + no scancode, which just means button is held, a "repeat". When this is + received, the ``LIRC_SCANCODE_FLAG_REPEAT`` is set and the scancode and + keycode is repeated. + + With nec, there is no way to distinguish "button hold" from "repeatedly + pressing the same button". The rc-5 and rc-6 protocols have a toggle bit. + When a button is released and pressed again, the toggle bit is inverted. + If the toggle bit is set, the ``LIRC_SCANCODE_FLAG_TOGGLE`` is set. + + The ``timestamp`` field is filled with the time nanoseconds + (in ``CLOCK_MONOTONIC``) when the scancode was decoded. + +.. _lirc-mode-mode2: + +``LIRC_MODE_MODE2`` + + The driver returns a sequence of pulse and space codes to userspace, + as a series of u32 values. + + This mode is used only for IR receive. + + The upper 8 bits determine the packet type, and the lower 24 bits + the payload. Use ``LIRC_VALUE()`` macro to get the payload, and + the macro ``LIRC_MODE2()`` will give you the type, which + is one of: + + ``LIRC_MODE2_PULSE`` + + Signifies the presence of IR in microseconds. + + ``LIRC_MODE2_SPACE`` + + Signifies absence of IR in microseconds. + + ``LIRC_MODE2_FREQUENCY`` + + If measurement of the carrier frequency was enabled with + :ref:`lirc_set_measure_carrier_mode` then this packet gives you + the carrier frequency in Hertz. + + ``LIRC_MODE2_TIMEOUT`` + + If timeout reports are enabled with + :ref:`lirc_set_rec_timeout_reports`, when the timeout set with + :ref:`lirc_set_rec_timeout` expires due to no IR being detected, + this packet will be sent, with the number of microseconds with + no IR. + +.. _lirc-mode-pulse: + +``LIRC_MODE_PULSE`` + + In pulse mode, a sequence of pulse/space integer values are written to the + lirc device using :ref:`lirc-write`. + + The values are alternating pulse and space lengths, in microseconds. The + first and last entry must be a pulse, so there must be an odd number + of entries. + + This mode is used only for IR send. + +******************** +BPF based IR decoder +******************** + +The kernel has support for decoding the most common +:ref:`IR protocols <Remote_controllers_Protocols>`, but there +are many protocols which are not supported. To support these, it is possible +to load an BPF program which does the decoding. This can only be done on +LIRC devices which support reading raw IR. + +First, using the `bpf(2)`_ syscall with the ``BPF_LOAD_PROG`` argument, +program must be loaded of type ``BPF_PROG_TYPE_LIRC_MODE2``. Once attached +to the LIRC device, this program will be called for each pulse, space or +timeout event on the LIRC device. The context for the BPF program is a +pointer to a unsigned int, which is a :ref:`LIRC_MODE_MODE2 <lirc-mode-mode2>` +value. When the program has decoded the scancode, it can be submitted using +the BPF functions ``bpf_rc_keydown()`` or ``bpf_rc_repeat()``. Mouse or pointer +movements can be reported using ``bpf_rc_pointer_rel()``. + +Once you have the file descriptor for the ``BPF_PROG_TYPE_LIRC_MODE2`` BPF +program, it can be attached to the LIRC device using the `bpf(2)`_ syscall. +The target must be the file descriptor for the LIRC device, and the +attach type must be ``BPF_LIRC_MODE2``. No more than 64 BPF programs can be +attached to a single LIRC device at a time. + +.. _bpf(2): http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/bpf.2.html diff --git a/Documentation/userspace-api/media/rc/lirc-dev.rst b/Documentation/userspace-api/media/rc/lirc-dev.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..5510dc02a --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/userspace-api/media/rc/lirc-dev.rst @@ -0,0 +1,14 @@ +..

This is encoded +as a 24 bit value as you would expect, with the lower 8 bits the command +and the upper 16 bits the address. + +nec-32 (RC_PROTO_NEC32) +----------------------- + +nec-32 does not send an inverted address or an inverted command; the +entire message, all 32 bits, are used. + +For this to be decoded correctly, the second 8 bits must not be the +inverted value of the first, and also the last 8 bits must not be the +inverted value of the third 8 bit value. + +The scancode has a somewhat unusual encoding. + +.. flat-table:: nec-32 bits scancode mapping + + * - nec-32 bits + + - scancode bit + + * - First 8 bits + + - 16 to 23 + + * - Second 8 bits + + - 24 to 31 + + * - Third 8 bits + + - 0 to 7 + + * - Fourth 8 bits + + - 8 to 15 + +sanyo (RC_PROTO_SANYO) +---------------------- + +The sanyo protocol is like the nec protocol, but with 13 bits address +rather than 8 bits. Both the address and the command are followed by +their inverted versions, but these are not present in the scancodes. + +Bis 8 to 20 of the scancode is the 13 bits address, and the lower 8 +bits are the command. + +mcir2-kbd (RC_PROTO_MCIR2_KBD) +------------------------------ + +This protocol is generated by the Microsoft MCE keyboard for keyboard +events. Refer to the ir-mce_kbd-decoder.c to see how it is encoded. + +mcir2-mse (RC_PROTO_MCIR2_MSE) +------------------------------ + +This protocol is generated by the Microsoft MCE keyboard for pointer +events. Refer to the ir-mce_kbd-decoder.c to see how it is encoded. + +rc-6-0 (RC_PROTO_RC6_0) +----------------------- + +This is the rc-6 in mode 0. rc-6 is described here +https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rc6.php. +The scancode is the exact 16 bits as in the protocol. There is also a +toggle bit. + +rc-6-6a-20 (RC_PROTO_RC6_6A_20) +------------------------------- + +This is the rc-6 in mode 6a, 20 bits. rc-6 is described here +https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rc6.php. +The scancode is the exact 20 bits +as in the protocol. There is also a toggle bit. + +rc-6-6a-24 (RC_PROTO_RC6_6A_24) +------------------------------- + +This is the rc-6 in mode 6a, 24 bits. rc-6 is described here +https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rc6.php. +The scancode is the exact 24 bits +as in the protocol. There is also a toggle bit. + +rc-6-6a-32 (RC_PROTO_RC6_6A_32) +------------------------------- + +This is the rc-6 in mode 6a, 32 bits. rc-6 is described here +https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rc6.php. +The upper 16 bits are the vendor, +and the lower 16 bits are the vendor-specific bits. This protocol is +for the non-Microsoft MCE variant (vendor != 0x800f). + + +rc-6-mce (RC_PROTO_RC6_MCE) +--------------------------- + +This is the rc-6 in mode 6a, 32 bits. The upper 16 bits are the vendor, +and the lower 16 bits are the vendor-specific bits. This protocol is +for the Microsoft MCE variant (vendor = 0x800f). The toggle bit in the +protocol itself is ignored, and the 16th bit should be takes as the toggle +bit. + +sharp (RC_PROTO_SHARP) +---------------------- + +This is a protocol used by Sharp VCRs, is described here +https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/sharp.php. There is a very long +(40ms) space between the normal and inverted values, and some IR receivers +cannot decode this. + +There is a 5 bit address and a 8 bit command. In the scancode the address is +in bits 8 to 12, and the command in bits 0 to 7. + +xmp (RC_PROTO_XMP) +------------------ + +This protocol has several versions and only version 1 is supported. Refer +to the decoder (ir-xmp-decoder.c) to see how it is encoded. + + +cec (RC_PROTO_CEC) +------------------ + +This is not an IR protocol, this is a protocol over CEC. The CEC +infrastructure uses rc-core for handling CEC commands, so that they +can easily be remapped. + +imon (RC_PROTO_IMON) +-------------------- + +This protocol is used by Antec Veris/SoundGraph iMON remotes. + +The protocol +describes both button presses and pointer movements. The protocol encodes +31 bits, and the scancode is simply the 31 bits with the top bit always 0. + +rc-mm-12 (RC_PROTO_RCMM12) +-------------------------- + +The rc-mm protocol is described here +https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rcmm.php. The scancode is simply +the 12 bits. + +rc-mm-24 (RC_PROTO_RCMM24) +-------------------------- + +The rc-mm protocol is described here +https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rcmm.php. The scancode is simply +the 24 bits. + +rc-mm-32 (RC_PROTO_RCMM32) +-------------------------- + +The rc-mm protocol is described here +https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rcmm.php. The scancode is simply +the 32 bits. + +xbox-dvd (RC_PROTO_XBOX_DVD) +---------------------------- + +This protocol is used by XBox DVD Remote, which was made for the original +XBox. There is no in-kernel decoder or encoder for this protocol. The usb +device decodes the protocol. There is a BPF decoder available in v4l-utils. diff --git a/Documentation/userspace-api/media/rc/rc-sysfs-nodes.rst b/Documentation/userspace-api/media/rc/rc-sysfs-nodes.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..43c442696 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/userspace-api/media/rc/rc-sysfs-nodes.rst @@ -0,0 +1,144 @@ +..
