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.

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.

This is a second version of an rc-core based driver for the ITE Tech IT8712F
CIR and now for a pair of other variants of the IT8512 CIR too.
This driver should replace the lirc_it87 and lirc_ite8709 currently living in
the LIRC staging directory.
The driver should support the ITE8704, ITE8713, ITE8708 and ITE8709 (this last
one yet untested) PNP ID's.
The code doesn'te reuse code from the pre-existing LIRC drivers, but has been
written from scratch using the nuvoton.cir driver as a skeleton.
This new driver shouldn't exhibit timing problems when running under load (or
with interrupts disabled for relatively long times). It works OOTB with the
RC6 MCE remote bundled with the ASUS EEEBox. TX support is implemented, but
I'm unable to test it since my hardware lacks TX capability.

This patch adds a loopback driver to rc-core which I've found useful for
running scripted tests of different parts of rc-core without having to
fiddle with real hardware.
Basically it emulates hardware with a learning and a non-learning
receiver and two transmitters (which correspond to the two
receivers). TX data that is sent is fed back as input on the
corresponding receiver, which allows for debugging of IR decoders,
keymaps, etc.

This is a new ir-core pnp driver for the Nuvoton w836x7hg integrated CIR
function. The chip is found on at least the ASRock ION 330HT boxes and
apparently, on a number of Intel DP55-series motherboards:
http://www.asrock.com/nettop/overview.asp?Model=ION%20330HThttp://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=17685&lang=eng
This driver was made possible by a hardware donation from Nuvoton, along
with sample code (in the form of an lirc driver) and datasheet, so huge
thanks to them for supporting this effort. Note that this driver
constitutes a massive rewrite, porting from the lirc interfaces to the
ir-core interfaces, and restructuring the driver to look more like Maxim
Levitsky's ene_ir driver (as well as generally making it look more like
kernel code).
There's some work left to be done on this driver, to fully support the
range of functionality possible, but receive and IR power-on/wake are
both functional (may require setting wake key under another OS atm). The
hardware I've got (one of the ASRock boxes) only supports RX, so TX is
completely untested as of yet. Certain RX parameters, like sample
resolution and RX IRQ sample length trigger level could possibly stand
to be made tweakable via modparams or sysfs nodes, but the current
values work well enough for me w/an MCE RC6A remote.
The original lirc driver carried support for the Windows MCE IR
keyboard/mouse device, which I plan to add back generically, in a way
that should be usable by any raw IR receiver (or at least by this driver
and the mceusb driver).
Suspend and resume have also been tested, the power button on my remote
can be used to wake the machine, and CIR functionality resumes just
fine. Module unload/reload has also been tested, though not extensively
or repetitively. Also tested to work with the lirc bridge plugin for
userspace decoding.

This patch makes in-kernel decoding with the stock Streamzap PC Remote
work out of the box. There are quite a few things going on in this
patch, all related to getting this working:
1) I had to enable reporting of a long space at the end of each signal,
or I had weird buffering and keybounce issues.
2) The keymap has been reworked slightly to match actual decoded values,
the first edition was missing the pre-data bits present in the lirc
config file for this remote.
3) There's a whole new decoder included, specifically for the
not-quite-RC5 15-bit protocol variant used by the Streamzap PC
Remote. The decoder, while usable with other recievers (tested with
an mceusb receiver), will only be loaded by the streamzap driver, as
its likely not of use in almost all other situations. This can be
revisited if/when all keytable loading (and disabling of unneeded
protocol decoder engines) is moved to userspace, but for now, I think
this makes the most sense.
Note that I did try to enable handling the streamzap RC5-ish protocol in
the current RC5 decoder, but there's no particularly easy way to tell if
its 14-bit RC5 or 15-bit Streamzap until we see bit 14, and even then,
in testing an attempted decoder merge, only 2/3 of the keys were
properly recognized as being the 15-bit variant and decoded correctly,
the rest were close enough to compliant with 14-bit that they were
decoded as such (but they have overlap with one another, and thus we
can't just shrug and use the 14-bit decoded values).
Also of note in this patch is the removal of the streamzap driver's
internal delay buffer. Per discussion w/Christoph, it shouldn't be
needed by lirc any longer anyway, and it doesn't seem to make any
difference to the in-kernel decoder engine. That being the case, I'm
yanking it all out, as it greatly simplifies the driver code.

This is a new driver for the Windows Media Center Edition/eHome
Infrared Remote transceiver devices. Its a port of the current
lirc_mceusb driver to ir-core, and currently lacks transmit support,
but will grow it back soon enough... This driver also differs from
lirc_mceusb in that it borrows heavily from a simplified IR buffer
decode routine found in Jon Smirl's earlier ir-mceusb port.
This driver has been tested on the original first-generation MCE IR
device with the MS vendor ID, as well as a current-generation device
with a Topseed vendor ID. Every receiver supported by lirc_mceusb
should work equally well. Testing was done primarily with RC6 MCE
remotes, but also briefly with a Hauppauge RC5 remote, and all works
as expected.
