It is used to identify +kernel devices compatible with this specification and to obtain +information about driver and hardware capabilities. The ioctl takes a +pointer to a struct :c:type:`v4l2_subdev_capability` which is filled by the +driver. When the driver is not compatible with this specification the ioctl +returns ``ENOTTY`` error code. + +.. tabularcolumns:: |p{1.5cm}|p{2.5cm}|p{13cm}| + +.. c:type:: v4l2_subdev_capability + +.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_subdev_capability + :header-rows: 0 + :stub-columns: 0 + :widths: 3 4 20 + + * - __u32 + - ``version`` + - Version number of the driver. + + The version reported is provided by the + V4L2 subsystem following the kernel numbering scheme. However, it + may not always return the same version as the kernel if, for + example, a stable or distribution-modified kernel uses the V4L2 + stack from a newer kernel. + + The version number is formatted using the ``KERNEL_VERSION()`` + macro: + * - :cspan:`2` + + ``#define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))`` + + ``__u32 version = KERNEL_VERSION(0, 8, 1);`` + + ``printf ("Version: %u.%u.%u\\n",`` + + ``(version >> 16) & 0xFF, (version >> 8) & 0xFF, version & 0xFF);`` + * - __u32 + - ``device_caps`` + - Sub-device capabilities of the opened device, see + :ref:`subdevice-capabilities`. + * - __u32 + - ``entity_id`` + - The media controller entity ID of the sub-device.
