How to bind TBS6991 in udev?

[Kompik]

How i can know MAC address for bind tuner to adapter name?

I have a lot of card in one system, and they sometimes change adapter numbers.

I need to bind each of tuner to specified adapter num.

How i can do this ?

A simple solution...

Create tbs.conf in /etc/modprobe.d
Put in this file string
modprobe saa716x_core adapter_nr=2,3,8,9,4,5,6,7,0,1

numbers may different in each system.

How you can obtain right numbers?
It simple, if you know how

You have phisical cards in your PCI slots...

Try to catch DVB signal from each card.

Write depences between:
1. Logical number of DVB adapters (adapter0, adapter) and phisical cards in your system
2. Use udevadm info -a -n /dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend0 | grep looking.*/.*dvb for detect dependency between logical adapter numbers and PCI-lane numbers in default mode.
3. Write initialization sequency for PCI-Lane
4. Write right numbers in adapter_nr parameter.

For EXAMPLE:

Get conformity between phisical inputs and logical DVB numbers
In my case (TBS6991)
Card 1 - dvb8
Card 2 - dvb0
Card 3 - dvb4
Card 4 - dvb6
Card 5 - dvb2

  looking at device '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/dvb/dvb0.frontend0':
  looking at device '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.1/0000:02:00.0/dvb/dvb2.frontend0':
  looking at device '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.4/0000:05:00.0/dvb/dvb4.frontend0':
  looking at device '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.5/0000:06:00.0/dvb/dvb6.frontend0':
  looking at device '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.7/0000:07:00.0/dvb/dvb8.frontend0':


Get initialization sequence
First initialized PCI 01:00.0, dvb0, phisical card 2
Second initialized PCI 02:00.0, dvb2, phisical card 5
Third initialized PCI 05:00.0, dvb4, phisical card 3
Fourth initialized PCI 06:00.0, dvb6, Phisical card 4
Fifth initialized PCI 076:00.0, dvb8, phisical card 5

And now we can write right numbers for adapter_nr
in my case this is
2,3,8,9,4,5,6,7,0,1

Done
