- The SI476x Driver
- =================
- Copyright |copy| 2013 Andrey Smirnov <andrew.smirnov@gmail.com>
- TODO for the driver
- -------------------
- - According to the SiLabs' datasheet it is possible to update the
- firmware of the radio chip in the run-time, thus bringing it to the
- most recent version. Unfortunately I couldn't find any mentioning of
- the said firmware update for the old chips that I tested the driver
- against, so for chips like that the driver only exposes the old
- functionality.
- Parameters exposed over debugfs
- -------------------------------
- SI476x allow user to get multiple characteristics that can be very
- useful for EoL testing/RF performance estimation, parameters that have
- very little to do with V4L2 subsystem. Such parameters are exposed via
- debugfs and can be accessed via regular file I/O operations.
- The drivers exposes following files:
- * /sys/kernel/debug/<device-name>/acf
- This file contains ACF(Automatically Controlled Features) status
- information. The contents of the file is binary data of the
- following layout:
- .. tabularcolumns:: |p{7ex}|p{12ex}|L|
- ============= ============== ====================================
- Offset Name Description

- crossed below the blend threshold
