[Bug 971951] Re: "firmware not responding" if on demand firmware of cx24116 (/lib/firmware/dvb-fe-cx24116.fw) is present during boot

 

I forgot to tell, my original file was the FW version 1.26.90.0 found at
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-4000

below you find the files:

Title:
  "firmware not responding" if on demand firmware of cx24116
  (/lib/firmware/dvb-fe-cx24116.fw) is present during boot

Status in “linux-firmware-nonfree” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  "firmware not responding" if on demand firmware of cx24116
  (/lib/firmware/dvb-fe-cx24116.fw) is present during boot

  TV-card: Hauppauge WinTV HVR-4000-HD

  If /lib/firmware/dvb-fe-cx24116.fw is not present during boot of the system, and I later add it to the system after boot, then the on demand download works fine if needed during TV playback.
  I use kaffeine as player. After download of firmware it shows terrestrial and satellite channels correctly. Here there is a dmesg part of correct/working downloading, which happens always when I start kaffeine TV mode:

  [83222.087352] cx24116_firmware_ondemand: Waiting for firmware upload (dvb-fe-cx24116.fw)...
  [83222.089351] cx24116_firmware_ondemand: Waiting for firmware upload(2)...
  [83228.067180] cx24116_load_firmware: FW version 1.26.90.0
  [83228.067193] cx24116_firmware_ondemand: Firmware upload complete

  
  But! if /lib/firmware/dvb-fe-cx24116.fw is present during boot, the ondemand downloading does not work.
  I think the module thinks the firmware is already on the card, and tries to communicate with it, but it does not succeed:

  [  714.140141] cx24116_cmd_execute() Firmware not responding
  [  716.652071] cx24116_cmd_execute() Firmware not responding
  [  764.888125] cx24116_cmd_execute() Firmware not responding

  It even does not try to download the firmware!!!
  So if the fw is present during boot, i can not use the tv card...

  My suggestion would be to force a download if firmware is not
  responding...

  My workaround for now is to rename the /lib/firmware/dvb-fe-cx24116.fw to something else, and then switch off the PC. 
  After switching on the PC I rename the fw back, and download works.
  Any other ideas?

  I also have problems with my Logitec QuickCam E3500, and with a NEC USB3.0 controller. 
  The camera does not show up as audio input on the volume control app ( I think thats the 
  3:3:1: cannot set freq 16000 to ep 0x86
  problem shown in dmesg,
  and I am unable to use my Iomega Prestige 1 TB USB3.0 HDD because it crashes the USB modules if plugged in on the USB3.0 port. On USB 2.0 ports it works fine.
  Maybe above module loading problem is related with whole configuration and the uPD720200 USB 3.0 Host Controller ...
