<title>CEC API</title>
<chapter id="cec-api">
<title>CEC: Consumer Electronics Control</title>
<section id="cec-intro">
<title>Introduction</title>
<para>
Note: this documents the proposed CEC API. This API is not yet finalized and
is currently only available as a staging kernel module.
</para>
<para>HDMI connectors provide a single pin for use by the Consumer Electronics
Control protocol. This protocol allows different devices connected by an HDMI cable
to communicate. The protocol for CEC version 1.4 is defined in supplements 1 (CEC)
and 2 (HEAC or HDMI Ethernet and Audio Return Channel) of the HDMI 1.4a
(<xref linkend="hdmi" />) specification and the extensions added to CEC version 2.0
are defined in chapter 11 of the HDMI 2.0 (<xref linkend="hdmi2" />) specification.
</para>
<para>The bitrate is very slow (effectively no more than 36 bytes per second) and
is based on the ancient AV.link protocol used in old SCART connectors. The protocol
closely resembles a crazy Rube Goldberg contraption and is an unholy mix of low and
high level messages. Some messages, especially those part of the HEAC protocol layered
on top of CEC, need to be handled by the kernel, others can be handled either by the
kernel or by userspace.</para>
<para>In addition, CEC can be implemented in HDMI receivers, transmitters and in USB
devices that have an HDMI input and an HDMI output and that control just the CEC pin.</para>
<para>Drivers that support CEC will create a CEC device node (/dev/cecX)
to give userspace access to the CEC adapter. The &CEC-ADAP-G-CAPS; ioctl will tell userspace
what it is allowed to do.</para>

<para>With the <function>poll()</function> function applications
can wait for CEC events.</para>
<para>On success <function>poll()</function> returns the number of
file descriptors that have been selected (that is, file descriptors
for which the <structfield>revents</structfield> field of the
respective <structname>pollfd</structname> structure is non-zero).
CEC devices set the <constant>POLLIN</constant> and
<constant>POLLRDNORM</constant> flags in the
<structfield>revents</structfield> field if there are messages in the
receive queue. If the transmit queue has room for new messages, the
<constant>POLLOUT</constant> and <constant>POLLWRNORM</constant>
flags are set. If there are events in the event queue, then the
<constant>POLLPRI</constant> flag is set.
When the function timed out it returns a value of zero, on
failure it returns <returnvalue>-1</returnvalue> and the
<varname>errno</varname> variable is set appropriately.

</para>
<para>To query the current physical address applications call the
<constant>CEC_ADAP_G_PHYS_ADDR</constant> ioctl with a pointer to an __u16
where the driver stores the physical address.</para>
<para>To set a new physical address applications store the physical address in
an __u16 and call the <constant>CEC_ADAP_S_PHYS_ADDR</constant> ioctl with a
pointer to this integer. <constant>CEC_ADAP_S_PHYS_ADDR</constant> is only
available if <constant>CEC_CAP_PHYS_ADDR</constant> is set (&ENOTTY; will be returned
otherwise). <constant>CEC_ADAP_S_PHYS_ADDR</constant>
can only be called by a file handle in initiator mode (see &CEC-S-MODE;), if not
&EBUSY; will be returned.</para>
<para>The physical address is a 16-bit number where each group of 4 bits
represent a digit of the physical address a.b.c.d where the most significant
4 bits represent 'a'. The CEC root device (usually the TV) has address 0.0.0.0.
Every device that is hooked up to an input of the TV has address a.0.0.0 (where
'a' is &ge; 1), devices hooked up to those in turn have addresses a.b.0.0, etc.
So a topology of up to 5 devices deep is supported. The physical address a
device shall use is stored in the EDID of the sink.</para>
<para>For example, the EDID for each HDMI input of the TV will have a different
physical address of the form a.0.0.0 that the sources will read out and use as
their physical address.</para>

<para>CEC devices can send asynchronous events. These can be retrieved by calling

<para>The internal event queues are per-filehandle and per-event type. If there is
no more room in a queue then the last event is overwritten with the new one. This
means that intermediate results can be thrown away but that the latest event is always
available. This also means that is it possible to read two successive events that have
the same value (e.g. two CEC_EVENT_STATE_CHANGE events with the same state). In that
case the intermediate state changes were lost but it is guaranteed that the state
did change in between the two events.</para>

internal size of the message queue guarantees that all messages
received in the last two seconds will be stored. Since messages

<para>
Note: this documents the proposed CEC API. This API is not yet finalized and
is currently only available as a staging kernel module.
</para>
<para>By default any filehandle can use &CEC-TRANSMIT; and &CEC-RECEIVE;, but
in order to prevent applications from stepping on each others toes it must be possible
to obtain exclusive access to the CEC adapter. This ioctl sets the filehandle
to initiator and/or follower mode which can be exclusive depending on the chosen
mode. The initiator is the filehandle that is used
to initiate messages, i.e. it commands other CEC devices. The follower is the filehandle
that receives messages sent to the CEC adapter and processes them. The same filehandle
can be both initiator and follower, or this role can be taken by two different
filehandles.</para>
<para>When a CEC message is received, then the CEC framework will decide how
it will be processed. If the message is a reply to an earlier transmitted message,
then the reply is sent back to the filehandle that is waiting for it. In addition
the CEC framework will process it.</para>
<para>If the message is not a reply, then the CEC framework will process it
first. If there is no follower, then the message is just discarded and a feature
abort is sent back to the initiator if the framework couldn't process it. If there
is a follower, then the message is passed on to the follower who will use
&CEC-RECEIVE; to dequeue the new message. The framework expects the follower to
make the right decisions.</para>
<para>The CEC framework will process core messages unless requested otherwise
by the follower. The follower can enable the passthrough mode. In that case, the
CEC framework will pass on most core messages without processing them and
the follower will have to implement those messages. There are some messages
that the core will always process, regardless of the passthrough mode. See
<xref linkend="cec-core-processing" /> for details.</para>
<para>If there is no initiator, then any CEC filehandle can use &CEC-TRANSMIT;.
If there is an exclusive initiator then only that initiator can call &CEC-TRANSMIT;.
The follower can of course always call &CEC-TRANSMIT;.</para>

<para>
Note: this documents the proposed CEC API. This API is not yet finalized and
is currently only available as a staging kernel module.
</para>
<para>To receive a CEC message the application has to fill in the
<structname>cec_msg</structname> structure and pass it to the
<constant>CEC_RECEIVE</constant> ioctl. <constant>CEC_RECEIVE</constant> is
only available if <constant>CEC_CAP_RECEIVE</constant> is set. If the
file descriptor is in non-blocking mode and there are no received
messages pending, then it will return -1 and set errno to the &EAGAIN;.
If the file descriptor is in blocking mode and <structfield>timeout</structfield>
is non-zero and no message arrived within <structfield>timeout</structfield>
milliseconds, then it will return -1 and set errno to the &ETIMEDOUT;.</para>
<para>To send a CEC message the application has to fill in the
<structname>cec_msg</structname> structure and pass it to the
<constant>CEC_TRANSMIT</constant> ioctl. <constant>CEC_TRANSMIT</constant> is
only available if <constant>CEC_CAP_TRANSMIT</constant> is set.
If there is no more room in the transmit queue, then it will return
-1 and set errno to the &EBUSY;.</para>

<entry>The timeout in milliseconds. This is the time the device will wait for a message to

<entry>Wait until this message is replied. If <structfield>reply</structfield>

return after transmitting the message. If there was an error as indicated by a non-zero
<structfield>tx_status</structfield> field, then <structfield>reply</structfield> and
<structfield>timeout</structfield> are both set to 0 by the driver. Ignored by
<constant>CEC_RECEIVE</constant>. The case where <structfield>reply</structfield> is 0
(this is the opcode for the Feature Abort message) and <structfield>timeout</structfield>
is non-zero is specifically allowed to send a message and wait up to <structfield>timeout</structfield>
milliseconds for a Feature Abort reply. In this case <structfield>rx_status</structfield>
