Hans Verkuil 218fc9f2fc media: Documentation/media/uapi: more readable unions
Avoid adding an extra columns when describing unions in the documentation.
That makes it much harder to read. See e.g. VIDIOC_QUERY_EXT_CTRLS.

Instead start off a union with 'union {' and end it with an extra row
containing '}'.

This leaves a lot more space for the description of the fields.

This formatting technique was used in a few places already, but this
patches fixes all remaining occurrences of 'union' in the media uAPI.

Multi-planar format structures
******************************
The struct :c:type:`v4l2_plane_pix_format` structures define size
and layout for each of the planes in a multi-planar format. The
struct :c:type:`v4l2_pix_format_mplane` structure contains
information common to all planes (such as image width and height) and an
array of struct :c:type:`v4l2_plane_pix_format` structures,
describing all planes of that format.

.. c:type:: v4l2_plane_pix_format
.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_plane_pix_format

:stub-columns: 0
:widths: 1 1 2
* - __u32
- ``sizeimage``
- Maximum size in bytes required for image data in this plane,
set by the driver. When the image consists of variable length
compressed data this is the number of bytes required by the
codec to support the worst-case compression scenario.
The driver will set the value for uncompressed images.
Clients are allowed to set the sizeimage field for variable length
compressed data flagged with ``V4L2_FMT_FLAG_COMPRESSED`` at
:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT`, but the driver may ignore it and set the
value itself, or it may modify the provided value based on
alignment requirements or minimum/maximum size requirements.
If the client wants to leave this to the driver, then it should
set sizeimage to 0.
* - __u32
- ``bytesperline``
- Distance in bytes between the leftmost pixels in two adjacent
lines. See struct :c:type:`v4l2_pix_format`.
* - __u16
- ``reserved[6]``
- Reserved for future extensions. Should be zeroed by drivers and
applications.

to be put in the ``num_planes`` field.

- ``num_planes``
- Number of planes (i.e. separate memory buffers) for this format
and the number of valid entries in the ``plane_fmt`` array.
