Laurent Pinchart c2b66cafdf [media] v4l: doc: Remove row numbers from tables
Shorten the tables by removing row numbers in comments, allowing for
later insertion of rows with minimal diffs.

Name

VIDIOC_G_FMT - VIDIOC_S_FMT - VIDIOC_TRY_FMT - Get or set the data format, try a format
Synopsis
========
.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, VIDIOC_G_FMT, struct v4l2_format *argp )
:name: VIDIOC_G_FMT
.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, VIDIOC_S_FMT, struct v4l2_format *argp )
:name: VIDIOC_S_FMT
.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, VIDIOC_TRY_FMT, struct v4l2_format *argp )
:name: VIDIOC_TRY_FMT
Arguments
=========
``fd``
File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
``argp``
Description
===========
These ioctls are used to negotiate the format of data (typically image
format) exchanged between driver and application.
To query the current parameters applications set the ``type`` field of a
struct :c:type:`v4l2_format` to the respective buffer (stream)
type. For example video capture devices use
``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE`` or
``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE_MPLANE``. When the application calls the
:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <VIDIOC_G_FMT>` ioctl with a pointer to this structure the driver fills
the respective member of the ``fmt`` union. In case of video capture
devices that is either the struct
:c:type:`v4l2_pix_format` ``pix`` or the struct
:c:type:`v4l2_pix_format_mplane` ``pix_mp``
member. When the requested buffer type is not supported drivers return
an ``EINVAL`` error code.
To change the current format parameters applications initialize the
``type`` field and all fields of the respective ``fmt`` union member.
For details see the documentation of the various devices types in
:ref:`devices`. Good practice is to query the current parameters
first, and to modify only those parameters not suitable for the
application. When the application calls the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <VIDIOC_G_FMT>` ioctl with
a pointer to a struct :c:type:`v4l2_format` structure the driver
checks and adjusts the parameters against hardware abilities. Drivers
should not return an error code unless the ``type`` field is invalid,
this is a mechanism to fathom device capabilities and to approach
parameters acceptable for both the application and driver. On success
the driver may program the hardware, allocate resources and generally
prepare for data exchange. Finally the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <VIDIOC_G_FMT>` ioctl returns
the current format parameters as :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <VIDIOC_G_FMT>` does. Very simple,
inflexible devices may even ignore all input and always return the
default parameters. However all V4L2 devices exchanging data with the
application must implement the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <VIDIOC_G_FMT>` and :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <VIDIOC_G_FMT>`
ioctl. When the requested buffer type is not supported drivers return an
EINVAL error code on a :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <VIDIOC_G_FMT>` attempt. When I/O is already in
progress or the resource is not available for other reasons drivers
return the ``EBUSY`` error code.
The :ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <VIDIOC_G_FMT>` ioctl is equivalent to :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <VIDIOC_G_FMT>` with one
exception: it does not change driver state. It can also be called at any
time, never returning ``EBUSY``. This function is provided to negotiate
parameters, to learn about hardware limitations, without disabling I/O
or possibly time consuming hardware preparations. Although strongly
recommended drivers are not required to implement this ioctl.
The format as returned by :ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <VIDIOC_G_FMT>` must be identical to what
:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <VIDIOC_G_FMT>` returns for the same input or output.

Return Value
============
On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
EINVAL
The struct :c:type:`v4l2_format` ``type`` field is
invalid or the requested buffer type not supported.
