Name

|
|
|
FE_READ_STATUS - Returns status information about the front-end. This call only requires - read-only access to the device
|
|
|
|
|
|
Synopsis
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, FE_READ_STATUS, unsigned int *status )
|
|
:name: FE_READ_STATUS
|
|
|
|
|
|
Arguments
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
``fd``
|
|
File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <frontend_f_open>`.
|
|
|
|
``status``
|
|
pointer to a bitmask integer filled with the values defined by enum
|
|
:c:type:`fe_status`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
All DVB frontend devices support the ``FE_READ_STATUS`` ioctl. It is
|
|
used to check about the locking status of the frontend after being
|
|
tuned. The ioctl takes a pointer to an integer where the status will be
|
|
written.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The size of status is actually sizeof(enum fe_status), with
|
|
varies according with the architecture. This needs to be fixed in the
|
|
future.
|
|
|
|
|
|
int fe_status
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
The fe_status parameter is used to indicate the current state and/or
|
|
state changes of the frontend hardware. It is produced using the enum
|
|
:c:type:`fe_status` values on a bitmask
|
|
