When this ioctl is called the driver will output the 3454f38fcaSMauro Carvalho Chehabcurrent device status to the kernel log. This is particular useful when 3554f38fcaSMauro Carvalho Chehabdealing with problems like no sound, no video and incorrectly tuned 3654f38fcaSMauro Carvalho Chehabchannels. Also many modern devices autodetect video and audio standards 3754f38fcaSMauro Carvalho Chehaband this ioctl will report what the device thinks what the standard is. 3854f38fcaSMauro Carvalho ChehabMismatches may give an indication where the problem is. 3954f38fcaSMauro Carvalho Chehab 4054f38fcaSMauro Carvalho ChehabThis ioctl is optional and not all drivers support it. It was introduced 4154f38fcaSMauro Carvalho Chehabin Linux 2.6.15. 4254f38fcaSMauro Carvalho Chehab 4354f38fcaSMauro Carvalho Chehab 4454f38fcaSMauro Carvalho ChehabReturn Value 4554f38fcaSMauro Carvalho Chehab============ 4654f38fcaSMauro Carvalho Chehab 4754f38fcaSMauro Carvalho ChehabOn success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set 4854f38fcaSMauro Carvalho Chehabappropriately.
