***************************************
Querying frontend status and statistics
***************************************
Once :ref:`FE_SET_PROPERTY <FE_GET_PROPERTY>` is called, the
frontend will run a kernel thread that will periodically check for the
tuner lock status and provide statistics about the quality of the
signal.
The information about the frontend tuner locking status can be queried
using :ref:`FE_READ_STATUS`.
Signal statistics are provided via
:ref:`FE_GET_PROPERTY`.
.. note::
Most statistics require the demodulator to be fully locked
(e. g. with :c:type:`FE_HAS_LOCK <fe_status>` bit set). See
:ref:`Frontend statistics indicators <frontend-stat-properties>` for
more details.
Annotation
- Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
