<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <function>ioctl()</function> function is used to program
|
|
V4L2 devices. The argument <parameter>fd</parameter> must be an open
|
|
file descriptor. An ioctl <parameter>request</parameter> has encoded
|
|
in it whether the argument is an input, output or read/write
|
|
parameter, and the size of the argument <parameter>argp</parameter> in
|
|
bytes. Macros and defines specifying V4L2 ioctl requests are located
|
|
in the <filename>videodev2.h</filename> header file.
|
|
Applications should use their own copy, not include the version in the
|
|
kernel sources on the system they compile on. All V4L2 ioctl requests,
|
|
their respective function and parameters are specified in <xref
|
|
linkend="user-func" />.</para>
|
|
</refsect1>
|
|
|
|
<refsect1>
|
|
<title>Return Value</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>On success the <function>ioctl()</function> function returns
|
|
<returnvalue>0</returnvalue> and does not reset the
|
|
<varname>errno</varname> variable. On failure
|
|
<returnvalue>-1</returnvalue> is returned, when the ioctl takes an
|
|
output or read/write parameter it remains unmodified, and the
|
|
<varname>errno</varname> variable is set appropriately. See below for
|
|
possible error codes. Generic errors like <errorcode>EBADF</errorcode>
|
|
or <errorcode>EFAULT</errorcode> are not listed in the sections
|
|
discussing individual ioctl requests.</para>
|
|
<para>Note ioctls may return undefined error codes. Since errors
|
|
may have side effects such as a driver reset applications should
|
|
abort on unexpected errors.</para>
