- Description
-
-
- Experimental
-
- This is an experimental interface and may change in
-the future.
-
-
- For driver debugging purposes this ioctl allows test
-applications to query the driver about the chips present on the TV
-card. Regular applications must not use it. When you found a chip
-specific bug, please contact the linux-media mailing list (&v4l-ml;)
-so it can be fixed.
-
- To query the driver applications must initialize the
-match.type and
-match.addr or match.name
-fields of a &v4l2-dbg-chip-ident;
-and call VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_IDENT with a pointer to
-this structure. On success the driver stores information about the
-selected chip in the ident and
-revision fields. On failure the structure
-remains unchanged.
-
- When match.type is
-V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_HOST,
-match.addr selects the nth non-&i2c; chip
-on the TV card. You can enumerate all chips by starting at zero and
-incrementing match.addr by one until
-VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_IDENT fails with an &EINVAL;.
-The number zero always selects the host chip, ⪚ the chip connected
-to the PCI or USB bus.
-
- When match.type is
-V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_I2C_DRIVER,
-match.name contains the I2C driver name.
-For instance
-"saa7127" will match any chip
-supported by the saa7127 driver, regardless of its &i2c; bus address.
-When multiple chips supported by the same driver are present, the
-ioctl will return V4L2_IDENT_AMBIGUOUS in the
-ident field.
-
- When match.type is
-V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_I2C_ADDR,
-match.addr selects a chip by its 7 bit
-&i2c; bus address.
-
- When match.type is
-V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_AC97,
-match.addr selects the nth AC97 chip
-on the TV card. You can enumerate all chips by starting at zero and
-incrementing match.addr by one until
-VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_IDENT fails with an &EINVAL;.
-
- On success, the ident field will
-contain a chip ID from the Linux
-media/v4l2-chip-ident.h header file, and the
-revision field will contain a driver
-specific value, or zero if no particular revision is associated with
-this chip.
-
- When the driver could not identify the selected chip,
-ident will contain
-V4L2_IDENT_UNKNOWN. When no chip matched
-the ioctl will succeed but the
-ident field will contain
-V4L2_IDENT_NONE. If multiple chips matched,
-ident will contain
-V4L2_IDENT_AMBIGUOUS. In all these cases the
-revision field remains unchanged.
-
- This ioctl is optional, not all drivers may support it. It
-was introduced in Linux 2.6.21, but the API was changed to the
-one described here in 2.6.29.
-
- We recommended the v4l2-dbg
-utility over calling this ioctl directly. It is available from the
-LinuxTV v4l-dvb repository; see http://linuxtv.org/repo/ for
-access instructions.
