+
+LIRC_GET_REC_RESOLUTION - Obtain the value of receive resolution, in microseconds.
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. c:macro:: LIRC_GET_REC_RESOLUTION
+
+``int ioctl(int fd, LIRC_GET_REC_RESOLUTION, __u32 *microseconds)``
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+    File descriptor returned by open().
+
+``microseconds``
+    Resolution, in microseconds.
+
+Description
+===========
+
+Some receivers have maximum resolution which is defined by internal
+sample rate or data format limitations. E.g. it's common that
+signals can only be reported in 50 microsecond steps.
+
+This ioctl returns the integer value with such resolution, with can be
+used by userspace applications like lircd to automatically adjust the
+tolerance value.
+
+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.
