ioctl VIDIOC_SUBSCRIBE_EVENT, VIDIOC_UNSUBSCRIBE_EVENT &manvol; VIDIOC_SUBSCRIBE_EVENT, VIDIOC_UNSUBSCRIBE_EVENT Subscribe or unsubscribe event int ioctl int fd int request struct v4l2_event_subscription *argp fd &fd; request VIDIOC_SUBSCRIBE_EVENT, VIDIOC_UNSUBSCRIBE_EVENT argp Subscribe or unsubscribe V4L2 event. Subscribed events are dequeued by using the &VIDIOC-DQEVENT; ioctl. &cs-str; __u32 type Type of the event. __u32 id ID of the event source. If there is no ID associated with the event source, then set this to 0. Whether or not an event needs an ID depends on the event type. __u32 flags Event flags, see . __u32 reserved[5] Reserved for future extensions. Drivers and applications must set the array to zero. &cs-def; V4L2_EVENT_ALL 0 All events. V4L2_EVENT_ALL is valid only for VIDIOC_UNSUBSCRIBE_EVENT for unsubscribing all events at once. V4L2_EVENT_VSYNC 1 This event is triggered on the vertical sync. This event has &v4l2-event-vsync; associated with it. V4L2_EVENT_EOS 2 This event is triggered when the end of a stream is reached. This is typically used with MPEG decoders to report to the application when the last of the MPEG stream has been decoded. V4L2_EVENT_CTRL 3 This event requires that the id matches the control ID from which you want to receive events. This event is triggered if the control's value changes, if a button control is pressed or if the control's flags change. This event has &v4l2-event-ctrl; associated with it. This struct contains much of the same information as &v4l2-queryctrl; and &v4l2-control;. If the event is generated due to a call to &VIDIOC-S-CTRL; or &VIDIOC-S-EXT-CTRLS;, then the event will not be sent to the file handle that called the ioctl function. This prevents nasty feedback loops. V4L2_EVENT_PRIVATE_START 0x08000000 Base event number for driver-private events. &cs-def; V4L2_EVENT_SUB_FL_SEND_INITIAL 0x0001 When this event is subscribed an initial event will be sent containing the current status. This only makes sense for events that are triggered by a status change. Other events will ignore this flag. &cs-str; __u8 field The upcoming field. See &v4l2-field;. &cs-str; __u32 changes A bitmask that tells what has changed. See . __u32 type The type of the control. See &v4l2-ctrl-type;. union (anonymous) __s32 value The 32-bit value of the control for 32-bit control types. This is 0 for string controls since the value of a string cannot be passed using &VIDIOC-DQEVENT;. __s64 value64 The 64-bit value of the control for 64-bit control types. __u32 flags The control flags. See . __s32 minimum The minimum value of the control. See &v4l2-queryctrl;. __s32 maximum The maximum value of the control. See &v4l2-queryctrl;. __s32 step The step value of the control. See &v4l2-queryctrl;. __s32 default_value The default value value of the control. See &v4l2-queryctrl;. &cs-def; V4L2_EVENT_CTRL_CH_VALUE 0x0001 This control event was triggered because the value of the control changed. Special case: if a button control is pressed, then this event is sent as well, even though there is not explicit value associated with a button control. V4L2_EVENT_CTRL_CH_FLAGS 0x0002 This control event was triggered because the control flags changed.
