From 60c2820d0f6d3497975b6488e2599f8f611d8b95 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Date: Fri, 8 Jul 2016 11:40:06 -0300 Subject: doc_rst: rename the media Sphinx suff to Documentation/media The name of the subsystem is "media", and not "linux_tv". Also, as we plan to add other stuff there in the future, let's rename also the media uAPI book to media_uapi, to make it clearer. No functional changes.

They +then call the MEDIA_IOC_SETUP_LINK ioctl with a pointer to that +structure. + +The only configurable property is the ``ENABLED`` link flag to +enable/disable a link. Links marked with the ``IMMUTABLE`` link flag can +not be enabled or disabled. + +Link configuration has no side effect on other links. If an enabled link +at the sink pad prevents the link from being enabled, the driver returns +with an ``EBUSY`` error code. + +Only links marked with the ``DYNAMIC`` link flag can be enabled/disabled +while streaming media data. Attempting to enable or disable a streaming +non-dynamic link will return an ``EBUSY`` error code. + +If the specified link can't be found the driver returns with an ``EINVAL`` +error code. + + +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 ` chapter. + +EINVAL + The struct :ref:`media_link_desc ` references a + non-existing link, or the link is immutable and an attempt to modify + its configuration was made. -- cgit v1.2.3
