Ok, that's how I've understood the spec, too.
The only exception for which S_PARM would make sense for non-camera
devices seems to be drivers that support selecting the number of
internally used buffers.

Ah, ok, thanks.

The spec seems to be up-to-date:
"This ioctl must be implemented for video capture or output devices that
support cropping and/or scaling and/or have non-square pixels, and for
overlay devices."

Hmmm... must have been even before 2.6.27.

Yes, I heard about it but never used it up to now. It seems like this is
a good reason to test it. :)

I will try to send a patch series that fixes the remaining em28xx ioctl
issues tomorrow.
I wouldn't wonder if further questions arise, please be patient with me. ;)
