Here are the 45semantics of the function for the different cases: 46 47- **Discrete:** The function returns success if the given index value 48 (zero-based) is valid. The application should increase the index by 49 one for each call until ``EINVAL`` is returned. The 50 ``v4l2_frmsizeenum.type`` field is set to 51 ``V4L2_FRMSIZE_TYPE_DISCRETE`` by the driver. Of the union only the 52 ``discrete`` member is valid. 53 54- **Step-wise:** The function returns success if the given index value 55 is zero and ``EINVAL`` for any other index value. The 56 ``v4l2_frmsizeenum.type`` field is set to 57 ``V4L2_FRMSIZE_TYPE_STEPWISE`` by the driver. Of the union only the 58 ``stepwise`` member is valid. 59 60- **Continuous:** This is a special case of the step-wise type above. 61 The function returns success if the given index value is zero and 62 ``EINVAL`` for any other index value. The ``v4l2_frmsizeenum.type`` 63 field is set to ``V4L2_FRMSIZE_TYPE_CONTINUOUS`` by the driver. Of 64 the union only the ``stepwise`` member is valid and the 65 ``step_width`` and ``step_height`` values are set to 1. 66 67When the application calls the function with index zero, it must check 68the ``type`` field to determine the type of frame size enumeration the 69device supports. Only for the ``V4L2_FRMSIZE_TYPE_DISCRETE`` type does 70it make sense to increase the index value to receive more frame sizes. 71 72.. note:: 73 74 The order in which the frame sizes are returned has no special 75 meaning. In particular does it not say anything about potential default 76 format sizes. 77 78Applications can assume that the enumeration data does not change 79without any interaction from the application itself. This means that the 80enumeration data is consistent if the application does not perform any 81other ioctl calls while it runs the frame size enumeration. 82 83Structs 84======= 85 86In the structs below, *IN* denotes a value that has to be filled in by 87the application, *OUT* denotes values that the driver fills in. The 88application should zero out all members except for the *IN* fields. 89 90.. c:type:: v4l2_frmsize_discrete 91 92.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_frmsize_discrete 93 :header-rows: 0 94 :stub-columns: 0 95 :widths: 1 1 2 96 97 * - __u32 98 - ``width`` 99 - Width of the frame [pixel]. 100 * - __u32 101 - ``height`` 102 - Height of the frame [pixel]. 103 104 105.. c:type:: v4l2_frmsize_stepwise 106 107.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_frmsize_stepwise 108 :header-rows: 0 109 :stub-columns: 0 110 :widths: 1 1 2 111 112 * - __u32 113 - ``min_width`` 114 - Minimum frame width [pixel]. 115 * - __u32 116 - ``max_width`` 117 - Maximum frame width [pixel]. 118 * - __u32 119 - ``step_width`` 120 - Frame width step size [pixel]. 121 * - __u32 122 - ``min_height`` 123 - Minimum frame height [pixel]. 124 * - __u32 125 - ``max_height`` 126 - Maximum frame height [pixel]. 127 * - __u32 128 - ``step_height`` 129 - Frame height step size [pixel]. 130 131 132.. c:type:: v4l2_frmsizeenum 133 134.. tabularcolumns:: |p{6.4cm}|p{2.8cm}|p{8.1cm}| 135 136.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_frmsizeenum 137 :header-rows: 0 138 :stub-columns: 0 139 140 * - __u32 141 - ``index`` 142 - IN: Index of the given frame size in the enumeration. 143 * - __u32 144 - ``pixel_format`` 145 - IN: Pixel format for which the frame sizes are enumerated. 146 * - __u32 147 - ``type`` 148 - OUT: Frame size type the device supports. 149 * - union { 150 - (anonymous) 151 - OUT: Frame size with the given index. 152 * - struct :c:type:`v4l2_frmsize_discrete` 153 - ``discrete`` 154 - 155 * - struct :c:type:`v4l2_frmsize_stepwise` 156 - ``stepwise`` 157 - 158 * - } 159 - 160 - 161 * - __u32 162 - ``reserved[2]`` 163 - Reserved space for future use.
