    media: ddbridge: initial support for MCI-based MaxSX8 cards · daeeb131
    Daniel Scheller authored
    This adds initial support for the new MCI-based (micro-code interface)
    DD cards, with the first one being the MaxSX8 eight-tuner DVB-S/S2/S2X
    PCIe card. The MCI is basically a generalized interface implemented in
    the card's FPGA firmware and usable for all kind of cards, without the
    need to implement any demod/tuner drivers as this interface "hides" any
    I2C interface to the actual ICs, in other words any required driver is
    implemented in the card firmware.
    
    At this stage, the MCI interface is quite rudimentary with things like
    signal statistics reporting missing, but is already working to serve
    DVB streams to DVB applications. Missing functionality will be enabled
    over time.
    
    This implements only the ddbridge-mci sub-object and hooks it up to the
    Makefile so the object gets build. The upcoming commits hook this module
    into all other ddbridge parts where required, including device IDs etc.
    
    Picked up from the upstream dddvb-0.9.33 release.
