^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 32) ===========
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 33)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 34) .. note::
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 35)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 36) This is an :ref:`experimental` interface and may
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 37) change in the future.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 38)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 39) For driver debugging purposes this ioctl allows test applications to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 40) query the driver about the chips present on the TV card. Regular
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 41) applications must not use it. When you found a chip specific bug, please
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 42) contact the linux-media mailing list
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 43) (`https://linuxtv.org/lists.php <https://linuxtv.org/lists.php>`__)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 44) so it can be fixed.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 45)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 46) Additionally the Linux kernel must be compiled with the
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 47) ``CONFIG_VIDEO_ADV_DEBUG`` option to enable this ioctl.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 48)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 49) To query the driver applications must initialize the ``match.type`` and
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 50) ``match.addr`` or ``match.name`` fields of a struct
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 51) :c:type:`v4l2_dbg_chip_info` and call
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 52) :ref:`VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_INFO` with a pointer to this structure. On success
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 53) the driver stores information about the selected chip in the ``name``
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 54) and ``flags`` fields.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 55)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 56) When ``match.type`` is ``V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_BRIDGE``, ``match.addr``
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 57) selects the nth bridge 'chip' on the TV card. You can enumerate all
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 58) chips by starting at zero and incrementing ``match.addr`` by one until
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 59) :ref:`VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_INFO` fails with an ``EINVAL`` error code. The number
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 60) zero always selects the bridge chip itself, e. g. the chip connected to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 61) the PCI or USB bus. Non-zero numbers identify specific parts of the
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 62) bridge chip such as an AC97 register block.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 63)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 64) When ``match.type`` is ``V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_SUBDEV``, ``match.addr``
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 65) selects the nth sub-device. This allows you to enumerate over all
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 66) sub-devices.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 67)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 68) On success, the ``name`` field will contain a chip name and the
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 69) ``flags`` field will contain ``V4L2_CHIP_FL_READABLE`` if the driver
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 70) supports reading registers from the device or ``V4L2_CHIP_FL_WRITABLE``
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 71) if the driver supports writing registers to the device.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 72)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 73) We recommended the v4l2-dbg utility over calling this ioctl directly. It
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 74) is available from the LinuxTV v4l-dvb repository; see
