There are lots of tables that are not properly displayed in LaTeX/PDF. Fix the tablecolumns, add longtable where needed and LaTeX formatting macros, in order to address such issues. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>

Synopsis

|
|
.. c:macro:: VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX
|
|
|
|
``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX, struct v4l2_enc_idx *argp)``
|
|
|
|
Arguments
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
``fd``
|
|
File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open()`.
|
|
|
|
``argp``
|
|
Pointer to struct :c:type:`v4l2_enc_idx`.
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
The :ref:`VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX <VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX>` ioctl provides meta data about a compressed
|
|
video stream the same or another application currently reads from the
|
|
driver, which is useful for random access into the stream without
|
|
decoding it.
|
|
|
|
To read the data applications must call :ref:`VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX <VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX>` with a
|
|
pointer to a struct :c:type:`v4l2_enc_idx`. On success
|
|
the driver fills the ``entry`` array, stores the number of elements
|
|
written in the ``entries`` field, and initializes the ``entries_cap``
|
|
field.
|
|
|
|
Each element of the ``entry`` array contains meta data about one
|
|
picture. A :ref:`VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX <VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX>` call reads up to
|
|
``V4L2_ENC_IDX_ENTRIES`` entries from a driver buffer, which can hold up
|
|
to ``entries_cap`` entries. This number can be lower or higher than
|
|
``V4L2_ENC_IDX_ENTRIES``, but not zero. When the application fails to
|
|
read the meta data in time the oldest entries will be lost. When the
|
|
buffer is empty or no capturing/encoding is in progress, ``entries``
|
|
will be zero.
|
|
|
|
Currently this ioctl is only defined for MPEG-2 program streams and
|
|
video elementary streams.

driver resets the offset to zero.

Return Value
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
|
|
appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
|
|
:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
