Here are the +semantics of the function for the different cases: + +- **Discrete:** The function returns success if the given index value + (zero-based) is valid. The application should increase the index by + one for each call until ``EINVAL`` is returned. The + ``v4l2_frmsizeenum.type`` field is set to + ``V4L2_FRMSIZE_TYPE_DISCRETE`` by the driver. Of the union only the + ``discrete`` member is valid. + +- **Step-wise:** The function returns success if the given index value + is zero and ``EINVAL`` for any other index value. The + ``v4l2_frmsizeenum.type`` field is set to + ``V4L2_FRMSIZE_TYPE_STEPWISE`` by the driver. Of the union only the + ``stepwise`` member is valid. + +- **Continuous:** This is a special case of the step-wise type above. + The function returns success if the given index value is zero and + ``EINVAL`` for any other index value. The ``v4l2_frmsizeenum.type`` + field is set to ``V4L2_FRMSIZE_TYPE_CONTINUOUS`` by the driver. Of + the union only the ``stepwise`` member is valid and the + ``step_width`` and ``step_height`` values are set to 1. + +When the application calls the function with index zero, it must check +the ``type`` field to determine the type of frame size enumeration the +device supports. Only for the ``V4L2_FRMSIZE_TYPE_DISCRETE`` type does +it make sense to increase the index value to receive more frame sizes. + +.. note:: + + The order in which the frame sizes are returned has no special + meaning. In particular does it not say anything about potential default + format sizes. + +Applications can assume that the enumeration data does not change +without any interaction from the application itself. This means that the +enumeration data is consistent if the application does not perform any +other ioctl calls while it runs the frame size enumeration. + +Structs +======= + +In the structs below, *IN* denotes a value that has to be filled in by +the application, *OUT* denotes values that the driver fills in. The +application should zero out all members except for the *IN* fields. + +.. c:type:: v4l2_frmsize_discrete + +.. tabularcolumns:: |p{4.4cm}|p{4.4cm}|p{8.7cm}| + +.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_frmsize_discrete + :header-rows: 0 + :stub-columns: 0 + :widths: 1 1 2 + + * - __u32 + - ``width`` + - Width of the frame [pixel]. + * - __u32 + - ``height`` + - Height of the frame [pixel]. + + +.. c:type:: v4l2_frmsize_stepwise + +.. tabularcolumns:: |p{4.4cm}|p{4.4cm}|p{8.7cm}| + +.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_frmsize_stepwise + :header-rows: 0 + :stub-columns: 0 + :widths: 1 1 2 + + * - __u32 + - ``min_width`` + - Minimum frame width [pixel]. + * - __u32 + - ``max_width`` + - Maximum frame width [pixel]. + * - __u32 + - ``step_width`` + - Frame width step size [pixel]. + * - __u32 + - ``min_height`` + - Minimum frame height [pixel]. + * - __u32 + - ``max_height`` + - Maximum frame height [pixel]. + * - __u32 + - ``step_height`` + - Frame height step size [pixel]. + + +.. c:type:: v4l2_frmsizeenum + +.. tabularcolumns:: |p{1.4cm}|p{5.9cm}|p{2.3cm}|p{8.0cm}| + +.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_frmsizeenum + :header-rows: 0 + :stub-columns: 0 + + * - __u32 + - ``index`` + - IN: Index of the given frame size in the enumeration. + * - __u32 + - ``pixel_format`` + - IN: Pixel format for which the frame sizes are enumerated. + * - __u32 + - ``type`` + - OUT: Frame size type the device supports. + * - union { + - (anonymous) + - OUT: Frame size with the given index. + * - struct :c:type:`v4l2_frmsize_discrete` + - ``discrete`` + - + * - struct :c:type:`v4l2_frmsize_stepwise` + - ``stepwise`` + - + * - } + - + - + * - __u32 + - ``reserved[2]`` + - Reserved space for future use.
