[media] docs-rst: add tabularcolumns to all tables
LaTeX doesn't handle too well auto-width on tables, and ReST
markup requires an special tag to give it the needed hints.
As we're using A4 paper, we have 17cm of useful spaces. As
most media tables have widths, let's use it to generate the
needed via the following perl script:
my ($line_size, $table_header, $has_cols) = (17.5, 0, 0);
my $out;
my $header = "";
my @widths = ();
sub round { $_[0] > 0 ? int($_[0] + .5) : -int(-$_[0] + .5) }
while (<>) {
if (!$table_header) {
$has_cols = 1 if (m/..\s+tabularcolumns::/);
if (m/..\s+flat-table::/) {
$table_header = 1;
$header = $_;
next;
}
$out .= $_;
next;
}
$header .= $_;
@widths = split(/ /, $1) if (m/:widths:\s+(.*)/);
if (m/^\n$/) {
if (!$has_cols && @widths) {
my ($tot, $t, $i) = (0, 0, 0);
foreach my $v(@widths) { $tot += $v; };
$out .= ".. tabularcolumns:: |";
for ($i = 0; $i < scalar @widths - 1; $i++) {
my $v = $widths[$i];
my $w = round(10 * ($v * $line_size) / $tot) / 10;
$out .= sprintf "p{%.1fcm}|", $w;
$t += $w;
}
my $w = $line_size - $t;
$out .= sprintf "p{%.1fcm}|\n\n", $w;
}
$out .= $header;
$table_header = 0;
$has_cols = 0;
$header = "";
@widths = ();
}
}
print $out;

|
2016-06-30 13:18:56 +00:00
|
|
|

- The ioctl can't be handled because the device is in state where it
|
2016-07-04 19:25:48 +00:00
|
|
|
can't perform it. This could happen for example in case where
|
|
|
|
|
device is sleeping and ioctl is performed to query statistics. It
|
|
|
|
|
is also returned when the ioctl would need to wait for an event,
|
|
|
|
|
but the device was opened in non-blocking mode.

|
- The ioctl can't be handled because the device is busy. This is
|
2016-07-04 19:25:48 +00:00
|
|
|
typically return while device is streaming, and an ioctl tried to
|
|
|
|
|
change something that would affect the stream, or would require
|
|
|
|
|
the usage of a hardware resource that was already allocated. The
|
|
|
|
|
ioctl must not be retried without performing another action to fix
|
|
|
|
|
the problem first (typically: stop the stream before retrying).

2016-06-30 13:18:56 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- There was a failure while copying data from/to userspace, probably
|
2016-07-04 19:25:48 +00:00
|
|
|
caused by an invalid pointer reference.

- - ``EINVAL``
|
2016-06-30 13:18:56 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- One or more of the ioctl parameters are invalid or out of the
|
2016-07-04 19:25:48 +00:00
|
|
|
allowed range. This is a widely used error code. See the
|
|
|
|
|
individual ioctl requests for specific causes.

- - ``ENOTTY``
|
2016-06-30 13:18:56 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The ioctl is not supported by the driver, actually meaning that
|
2016-07-04 19:25:48 +00:00
|
|
|
the required functionality is not available, or the file
|
|
|
|
|
descriptor is not for a media device.

|
2016-07-04 19:25:48 +00:00
|
|
|
that this request would overcommit the usb bandwidth reserved for
|
|
|
|

periodic transfers (up to 80% of the USB bandwidth).

2016-06-30 13:18:56 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Permission denied. Can be returned if the device needs write
|
2016-07-04 19:25:48 +00:00
|
|
|
permission, or some special capabilities is needed (e. g. root)

Since errors may have side effects such as a driver reset,

applications should abort on unexpected errors, or otherwise

|
assume that the device is in a bad state.
