This is a custom IR protocol decoder, for the RC-6-ish protocol used by
the Microsoft Remote Keyboard, apparently developed internally at
Microsoft, and officially dubbed MCIR-2, per their March 2011 remote and
transceiver requirements and specifications document, which also touches
on this IR keyboard/mouse device.
Its a standard keyboard with embedded thumb stick mouse pointer and
mouse buttons, along with a number of media keys. The media keys are
standard RC-6, identical to the signals from the stock MCE remotes, and
will be handled as such. The keyboard and mouse signals will be decoded
and delivered to the system by an input device registered specifically
by this driver.
Successfully tested with multiple mceusb-driven transceivers, as well as
with fintek-cir and redrat3 hardware. Essentially, any raw IR hardware
with enough sampling resolution should be able to use this decoder,
nothing about it is at all receiver-hardware-specific.
This work is inspired by lirc_mod_mce:
The documentation there and code aided in understanding and decoding the
protocol, but the bulk of the code is actually borrowed more from the
existing in-kernel decoders than anything. I did recycle the keyboard
keycode table, a few defines, and some of the keyboard and mouse data
parsing bits from lirc_mod_mce though.
Special thanks to James Meyer for providing the hardware, and being
patient with me as I took forever to get around to writing this.

Due to commit cdda911c34, evdev only
becomes readable when the buffer contains an EV_SYN/SYN_REPORT event. If
we get a repeat or a scancode we don't have a mapping for, we never call
input_sync, and thus those events don't get reported in a timely
fashion.
For example, take an mceusb transceiver with a default rc6 keymap. Press
buttons on an rc5 remote while monitoring with ir-keytable, and you'll
see nothing. Now press a button on the rc6 remote matching the keymap.
You'll suddenly get the rc5 key scancodes, the rc6 scancode and the rc6
key spit out all at the same time.
Pressing and holding a button on a remote we do have a keymap for also
works rather unreliably right now, due to repeat events also happening
without a call to input_sync (we bail from ir_do_keydown before getting
to the point where it calls input_sync).
Easy fix though, just add two strategically placed input_sync calls
right after our input_event calls for EV_MSC, and all is well again.
Technically, we probably should have been doing this all along, its just
that it never caused any functional difference until the referenced
change went into the input layer.

where we were calling input_report_key using last_keycode instead of our
just discovered keycode, which manifested with the reordering of calling
input_report_key and setting last_keycode.

With hardware that has to use ir_raw_event_store_edge to collect IR
sample durations, we were not doing an event reset unless
IR_MAX_DURATION had passed. That's around 4 seconds. So if someone
presses up, then down, with less than 4 seconds in between, they'd get
the initial up, then up and down upon pressing down.
To fix this, I've lowered the "send a reset event" logic's threshold to
the input device's REP_DELAY (defaults to 500ms), and with an
saa7134-based GPIO-driven IR receiver in a Hauppauge HVR-1150, I get
*much* better behavior out of the remote now. Special thanks to Devin

Thanks to the intrepid testing and debugging of Matthijs van Drunen, it
was uncovered that at least some variants of the ITE8709 need to use pnp
resource 2, rather than 0, for things to function properly. Resource 0
has a length of only 1, and if you try to bypass the pnp_port_len check
and use it anyway (with either a length of 1 or 2), the system in
question's trackpad ceased to function.
The circa lirc 0.8.7 lirc_ite8709 driver used resource 2, but the value
was (amusingly) changed to 0 by way of a patch from ITE themselves, so I
don't know if there may be variants where 0 actually *is* correct, but
at least in this case and in the original lirc_ite8709 driver author's
case, it sure looks like 2 is the right value.
This fix should probably be applied to all stable kernels with the
ite-cir driver, lest we nuke more people's trackpads.

Aside from the initial "hey, lets make sure we've flushed any
pre-existing data on the device" call to mce_sync_in, every other one of
the calls was entirely superfluous. Ergo, remove them all, and rename
the one and only (questionably) useful one to reflect what it really
does. Verified on both gen2 and gen3 hardware to make zero difference.
Well, except that you no longer get a bunch of urb submit failures from
the unneeded mce_sync_in calls. Oh. And move that flush to a point
*after* we've wired up the inbound urb, or it won't do squat. I have
half a mind to just remove it entirely, but someone thought it was
necessary at some point, and it doesn't seem to hurt, so lets leave it
for the time being.
This excercise took place due to insightful questions asked by Hans
Petter Selasky, about the possible reuse of the inbound urb before it
was actually availble by mce_sync_in, so thanks to him for motivating
this cleanup.

This is a new driver for the Fintek LPC SuperIO CIR function, in the
Fintek F71809 chip. Hardware and datasheets were provided by Fintek, so
thanks go to them for supporting this effort.
This driver started out as a copy of the nuvoton-cir driver, and was
then modified as needed for the Fintek chip. The two share many
similaries, though the buffer handling for the Fintek chip is actually
nearly identical to the mceusb buffer handling, so the parser routine is
almost a drop-in copy of the mceusb buffer parser (a candidate for being
abstracted out into shared code at some point).
This initial code drop *only* supports receive, but the hardware does
support transmit as well. I really haven't even started to look at
what's required, but my guess is that its also pretty similar to mceusb.
Most people are probably only really interested in RX anyway though, so
I think its good to get this out there even with only RX.
(Nb: there are also Fintek-made mceusb receivers, which presumably, this
chip shares CIR hardware with).
This hardware can be found on at least Jetway NC98 boards and derivative
systems, and likely others as well. Functionality was tested with an
NC98 development board, in-kernel decode of RC6 (mce), RC5 (hauppauge)
and NEC-ish (tivo) remotes all successful, as was lirc userspace decode
of the RC6 remote.

This is a new rc-core device driver for the IR transceivers made by
RedRat Ltd. (http://redrat.co.uk/). It started out life as an
out-of-lirc-tree lirc driver, maintained in its own repo on sourceforge,
by Stephen Cox. He started porting it to what was then ir-core, and I
finally picked it up about two week ago and did a fairly large overhaul
on it, and its now into a state where I'm fairly comfortable submitting
it here for review and inclusion in the kernel. I'm claiming authorship
of this driver, since while it started out as Stephen's work, its
definitely a derivative work now, at 876 lines added and 1698 lines
removed since grabbing it from sourceforge. Stephen's name is retained
as secondary author though, and credited in the headers. Those
interested in seeing how the changes evolved can (at least for now) look
at this branch in my git tree:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/jarod/linux-2.6-ir.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/redrat3
That won't be around forever though, and I'm doing this as a single
commit to go into mainline. Anyway...
I've successfully tested in-kernel decode of rc5, rc6 and nec remotes,
as well as lirc userspace decode of rc5 and rc6. There are still some
quirks here to sort out with rc5 lirc userspace decode, but I'm working
with the RedRat folks themselves to figure out what's going on there
(rc5 lirc decode works, but you only get an event on key release --
in-kernel rc5 decode behaves perfectly fine). Note that lirc decode of
rc6 is working perfectly. Transmit is also working, tested by pointing
the redrat3 at an mceusb transceiver, which happily picked up the
transmitted signals and properly decoded them.
There's no default remote for this hardware, so its somewhat arbitrarily
set to use the Hauppauge RC5 keymap by default. Easily changed out by
way of ir-keytable and irrelevant if you're using lircd for decode.

Continuing with IR transmit after resuming from suspend seems fairly
useless, given that the only place we can actually end up suspending is
after IR has been send and we're simply mdelay'ing. Lets simplify the

we know we can't be transmitting on resume, and reinitialization of the

The imon_ir_change_protocol function gets called two different ways, one
way is from rc_register_device, for initial protocol selection/setup,
and the other is via a userspace-initiated protocol change request,
either by direct sysfs prodding or by something like ir-keytable.
In the rc_register_device case, the imon context lock is already held,
but when initiated from userspace, it is not, so we must acquire it,
prior to calling send_packet, which requires that the lock is held.
Without this change, there's an easily reproduceable deadlock when
another function calls send_packet (such as either of the display write
fops) after a userspace-initiated change_protocol.
