+	<sect1><title>Digital TV Demux API</title>
+	    <para>The kernel demux API defines a driver-internal interface for
+	    registering low-level, hardware specific driver to a hardware
+	    independent demux layer. It is only of interest for Digital TV
+	    device driver writers. The header file for this API is named
+	    <constant>demux.h</constant> and located in
+	    <constant>drivers/media/dvb-core</constant>.</para>
+
+	<para>The demux API should be implemented for each demux in the
+	system. It is used to select the TS source of a demux and to manage
+	the demux resources. When the demux client allocates a resource via
+	the demux API, it receives a pointer to the API of that
+	resource.</para>
+	<para>Each demux receives its TS input from a DVB front-end or from
+	memory, as set via this demux API. In a system with more than one
+	front-end, the API can be used to select one of the DVB front-ends
+	as a TS source for a demux, unless this is fixed in the HW platform.
+	The demux API only controls front-ends regarding to their connections
+	with demuxes; the APIs used to set the other front-end parameters,
+	such as tuning, are not defined in this document.</para>
+	<para>The functions that implement the abstract interface demux should
+	be defined static or module private and registered to the Demux
+	core for external access. It is not necessary to implement every
+	function in the struct <constant>dmx_demux</constant>. For example,
+	a demux interface might support Section filtering, but not PES
+	filtering. The API client is expected to check the value of any
+	function pointer before calling the function: the value of NULL means
+	that the &#8220;function is not available&#8221;.</para>
+	<para>Whenever the functions of the demux API modify shared data,
+	the possibilities of lost update and race condition problems should
+	be addressed, e.g. by protecting parts of code with mutexes.</para>
+	<para>Note that functions called from a bottom half context must not
+	sleep. Even a simple memory allocation without using GFP_ATOMIC can
+	result in a kernel thread being put to sleep if swapping is needed.
+	For example, the Linux kernel calls the functions of a network device
+	interface from a bottom half context. Thus, if a demux API function
+	is called from network device code, the function must not sleep.
+	</para>

+	<title>Demux Callback API</title>
+	<para>This kernel-space API comprises the callback functions that
+	deliver filtered data to the demux client. Unlike the other DVB
+	kABIs, these functions are provided by the client and called from
+	the demux code.</para>
+	<para>The function pointers of this abstract interface are not
+	packed into a structure as in the other demux APIs, because the
+	callback functions are registered and used independent of each
+	other. As an example, it is possible for the API client to provide
+	several callback functions for receiving TS packets and no
+	callbacks for PES packets or sections.</para>
+	<para>The functions that implement the callback API need not be
+	re-entrant: when a demux driver calls one of these functions,
+	the driver is not allowed to call the function again before
+	the original call returns. If a callback is triggered by a
+	hardware interrupt, it is recommended to use the Linux
+	&#8220;bottom half&#8221; mechanism or start a tasklet instead of
+	making the callback function call directly from a hardware
+	interrupt.</para>
+	<para>This mechanism is implemented by
+	<link linkend='API-dmx-ts-cb'>dmx_ts_cb()</link> and
+	<link linkend='API-dmx-section-cb'>dmx_section_cb()</link>.</para>
