Status update. Nothing really useful to report except that I am seeing some screwy behavior just on hotplug / hotunplug operations with the device just sitting idle not being touched by anything. In this case I tested an old 29032 model - a very early module but it's a useful test subject because it is simpler than the HVR-1950 yet still exercises most of the key pieces of the driver. I ran a freshly compiled 5.0.9 kernel (latest stable) for this test.
Sorry this has taken so long. As was guessed earlier, I haven't worked on this in a very long time and I had to unbox a lot of stuff. I also spent far too much time today setting up a separate purpose-built computer which I can trash / crash / hang with wild abandon without losing anything of value. This approach allows me to keep my dev environment on a machine separate from the one that is running test kernels. I was able to cleanly modprobe -r pvrusb2 every time so far, but if the issue is on the DVB side of the fence, then the old 29032 model I've just tried won't exhibit that issue. So a lot more characterization to do. Diego: It would useful if you could post to me the section of your /var/log/kern.log (or equivalent) should all the kernel messages from the point when you plug in the device to when the fireworks are happening after trying to tear down. If I find that same pattern here then we'll know for sure that we are chasing the same issue. -Mike -- Mike Isely isely @ isely (dot) net PGP: 03 54 43 4D 75 E5 CC 92 71 16 01 E2 B5 F5 C1 E8 _______________________________________________ pvrusb2 mailing list [email protected] http://www.isely.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pvrusb2
