Synopsis
========
.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, LIRC_GET_LENGTH, __u32 *length )
:name: LIRC_GET_LENGTH
Arguments
=========
``fd``
File descriptor returned by open().
``length``
length, in bits
Description
===========
Retrieves the code length in bits (only for ``LIRC-MODE-LIRCCODE``).
Reads on the device must be done in blocks matching the bit count.
The bit could should be rounded up so that it matches full bytes.

:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
