usb: typec: qcom-pmic-typec: disable cc_debounce_dwork on stopgrafted
cc_debounce_dwork is queued from the set_cc() and start_toggling()
callbacks, which run from TCPM's kthread worker. port_stop() returns
before tcpm_unregister_port() destroys that worker. Flushing the worker
during unregister may therefore run a callback which queues the delayed
work after port_stop() has returned.
The delayed work can then run after devres has freed pmic_typec_port.
Use disable_delayed_work_sync() in port_stop() to cancel a pending
instance and prevent the TCPM callbacks from queueing another one.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +====================================================== +Infrared remote control support in video4linux drivers +====================================================== + +Authors: Gerd Hoffmann, Mauro Carvalho Chehab + +Basics +====== + +Most analog and digital TV boards support remote controllers. Several of +them have a microprocessor that receives the IR carriers, convert into +pulse/space sequences and then to scan codes, returning such codes to +userspace ("scancode mode"). Other boards return just the pulse/space +sequences ("raw mode"). + +The support for remote controller in scancode mode is provided by the +standard Linux input layer. The support for raw mode is provided via LIRC. + +In order to check the support and test it, it is suggested to download +the `v4l-utils <https://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git/>`_. It provides +two tools to handle remote controllers: + +- ir-keytable: provides a way to query the remote controller, list the + protocols it supports, enable in-kernel support for IR decoder or + switch the protocol and to test the reception of scan codes; + +- ir-ctl: provide tools to handle remote controllers that support raw mode + via LIRC interface. + +Usually, the remote controller module is auto-loaded when the TV card is +detected. However, for a few devices, you need to manually load the +ir-kbd-i2c module. + +How it works +============ + +The modules register the remote as keyboard within the linux input +layer, i.e. you'll see the keys of the remote as normal key strokes +(if CONFIG_INPUT_KEYBOARD is enabled). + +Using the event devices (CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV) it is possible for +applications to access the remote via /dev/input/event<n> devices. +The udev/systemd will automatically create the devices. If you install +the `v4l-utils <https://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git/>`_, it may also +automatically load a different keytable than the default one. Please see +`v4l-utils <https://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git/>`_ ir-keytable.1 +man page for details. + +The ir-keytable tool is nice for trouble shooting, i.e. to check +whenever the input device is really present, which of the devices it +is, check whenever pressing keys on the remote actually generates +events and the like. You can also use any other input utility that changes +the keymaps, like the input kbd utility. + + +Using with lircd +---------------- + +The latest versions of the lircd daemon supports reading events from the +linux input layer (via event device). It also supports receiving IR codes +in lirc mode. + + +Using without lircd +------------------- + +Xorg recognizes several IR keycodes that have its numerical value lower +than 247. With the advent of Wayland, the input driver got updated too, +and should now accept all keycodes. Yet, you may want to just reassign +the keycodes to something that your favorite media application likes. + +This can be done by setting +`v4l-utils <https://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git/>`_ to load your own +keytable in runtime. Please read ir-keytable.1 man page for details. |
