21
22Arguments
23=========
24
25``fd``
26    File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open()`.
27
28``argp``
29    Pointer to struct :c:type:`v4l2_subdev_frame_size_enum`.

31Description
32===========
33
34This ioctl allows applications to access the enumeration of frame sizes
35supported by a sub-device on the specified pad
36for the specified media bus format.
37Supported formats can be retrieved with the
38:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_ENUM_MBUS_CODE`
39ioctl.
40
41The enumerations are defined by the driver, and indexed using the ``index`` field
42of the struct :c:type:`v4l2_subdev_frame_size_enum`.
43Each pair of ``pad`` and ``code`` correspond to a separate enumeration.
44Each enumeration starts with the ``index`` of 0, and
45the lowest invalid index marks the end of the enumeration.
46
47Therefore, to enumerate frame sizes allowed on the specified pad
48and using the specified mbus format, initialize the
49``pad``, ``which``, and ``code`` fields to desired values,
50and set ``index`` to 0.
51Then call the :ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_ENUM_FRAME_SIZE` ioctl with a pointer to the
52structure.
53
54A successful call will return with minimum and maximum frame sizes filled in.
55Repeat with increasing ``index`` until ``EINVAL`` is received.
56``EINVAL`` means that either no more entries are available in the enumeration,
57or that an input parameter was invalid.
58
59Sub-devices that only support discrete frame sizes (such as most
60sensors) will return one or more frame sizes with identical minimum and
61maximum values.
62
63Not all possible sizes in given [minimum, maximum] ranges need to be
64supported. For instance, a scaler that uses a fixed-point scaling ratio
65might not be able to produce every frame size between the minimum and
66maximum values. Applications must use the
67:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FMT <VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_FMT>` ioctl to try the
68sub-device for an exact supported frame size.
69
70Available frame sizes may depend on the current 'try' formats at other
71pads of the sub-device, as well as on the current active links and the
72current values of V4L2 controls. See
73:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_FMT` for more
74information about try formats.

121Return Value
122============
123
124On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
125appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
126:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
127
128EINVAL
129    The struct
130    :c:type:`v4l2_subdev_frame_size_enum`
131    ``pad`` references a non-existing pad, the ``code`` is invalid for
132    the given pad or the ``index`` field is out of bounds.
