Hi all,

This long patch series was motivated by backporting Jaedon's changes
which add a proper ioctl compatibility layer for 32-bit applications
running on 64-bit kernels. We have a number of Android TV-based products
currently running on the 4.9 kernel and this was broken for them.

Thanks to Robert McConnell for identifying and providing the patches in
their initial format.

In order for Jaedon's patches to apply cleanly a number of changes were
applied to support those changes. If you deem the patch series too big
please let me know.

Thanks

Colin Ian King (2):
  media: dvb_frontend: ensure that inital front end status initialized
  media: dvb_frontend: initialize variable s with FE_NONE instead of 0

Jaedon Shin (3):

Mauro, can you review this? I would prefer not to maintain those patches
in our downstream 4.9 kernel as there are quite a few of them, and this
is likely beneficial to other people.

Thank you!

Hello? Anybody here?
Michael Ira Krufky June 17, 2020, 2:21 p.m. UTC | #3
Hey Florian,

Thank you for the time and effort that you put into this patch series.
I was excited to see this, when I first saw it posted a few weeks ago.
I have every intention of giving it a review, but just haven't found
the time yet.  I'm sure that Mauro would say the same.

I'm sure that he and I both will find some time, hopefully over the
next few weeks or sooner, to give this a thorough review and provide
some feedback.

Hopefully we can put this on its way for merge soon.  Please bear with us..

Thanks again for your contribution.

Ouch.  I top-posted - oops!  Please reply on this email rather than
the previous.

Thanks a lot, I did not get an email about "[PATCH stable 4.9 02/21]
media: dvb_frontend: initialize variable s with FE_NONE instead of 0"
being applied, not that it is a very important change,

That should be there, I merged it before I did the whole long series and
realised I should just automate it, sorry about that.

Sorry about the delay getting this reviewed. I've spent the morning going
through them and it looks good. Of the all the dvb ioctl, only the
FE_SET_PROPERTY and FE_GET_PROPERTY ioctls need special handling and this
series fixes that.

Belated,
