2017-12-18media: lirc: when transmitting scancodes, block until transmit is doneSean Young
The semantics for lirc IR transmit with raw IR is that the write call should block until the IR is transmitted. Some drivers have no idea when this actually is (e.g. mceusb), so there is a wait. This is useful for userspace, as it might want to send a IR button press, a gap of a predefined number of milliseconds, and then send a repeat message. It turns out that for transmitting scancodes this feature is even more useful, as user space has no idea how long the IR is. So, maintain the existing semantics for IR scancode transmit.

2016-08-22[media] docs-rst: Convert LIRC uAPI to use C function referencesMauro Carvalho Chehab
Name all ioctl references and make them match the ioctls that are documented. That will improve the cross-reference index, as it will have all ioctls and syscalls there. While here, improve the documentation to make them to look more like the rest of the document. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
