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. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>

Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
This system call opens a named video device (e.g.
|
|
/dev/dvb/adapter0/video0) for subsequent use.
|
|
|
|
When an open() call has succeeded, the device will be ready for use. The
|
|
significance of blocking or non-blocking mode is described in the
|
|
documentation for functions where there is a difference. It does not
|
|
affect the semantics of the open() call itself. A device opened in
|
|
blocking mode can later be put into non-blocking mode (and vice versa)
|
|
using the F_SETFL command of the fcntl system call. This is a standard
|
|
system call, documented in the Linux manual page for fcntl. Only one
|
|
user can open the Video Device in O_RDWR mode. All other attempts to
|
|
open the device in this mode will fail, and an error-code will be
|
|
returned. If the Video Device is opened in O_RDONLY mode, the only
|
|
ioctl call that can be used is VIDEO_GET_STATUS. All other call will
|
|
return an error code.
