V4L2_EVENT_ALL is valid only for + VIDIOC_UNSUBSCRIBE_EVENT for unsubscribing all events at once. + * - ``V4L2_EVENT_VSYNC`` + - 1 + - This event is triggered on the vertical sync. This event has a + struct :c:type:`v4l2_event_vsync` associated + with it. + * - ``V4L2_EVENT_EOS`` + - 2 + - This event is triggered when the end of a stream is reached. This + is typically used with MPEG decoders to report to the application + when the last of the MPEG stream has been decoded. + * - ``V4L2_EVENT_CTRL`` + - 3 + - This event requires that the ``id`` matches the control ID from + which you want to receive events. This event is triggered if the + control's value changes, if a button control is pressed or if the + control's flags change. This event has a struct + :c:type:`v4l2_event_ctrl` associated with it. + This struct contains much of the same information as struct + :ref:`v4l2_queryctrl ` and struct + :c:type:`v4l2_control`. + + If the event is generated due to a call to + :ref:`VIDIOC_S_CTRL ` or + :ref:`VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS `, then the + event will *not* be sent to the file handle that called the ioctl + function. This prevents nasty feedback loops. If you *do* want to + get the event, then set the ``V4L2_EVENT_SUB_FL_ALLOW_FEEDBACK`` + flag. + + This event type will ensure that no information is lost when more + events are raised than there is room internally. In that case the + struct :c:type:`v4l2_event_ctrl` of the + second-oldest event is kept, but the ``changes`` field of the + second-oldest event is ORed with the ``changes`` field of the + oldest event. + * - ``V4L2_EVENT_FRAME_SYNC`` + - 4 + - Triggered immediately when the reception of a frame has begun. + This event has a struct + :c:type:`v4l2_event_frame_sync` + associated with it. + + If the hardware needs to be stopped in the case of a buffer + underrun it might not be able to generate this event. In such + cases the ``frame_sequence`` field in struct + :c:type:`v4l2_event_frame_sync` will not + be incremented. This causes two consecutive frame sequence numbers + to have n times frame interval in between them. + * - ``V4L2_EVENT_SOURCE_CHANGE`` + - 5 + - This event is triggered when a source parameter change is detected + during runtime by the video device. It can be a runtime resolution + change triggered by a video decoder or the format change happening + on an input connector. This event requires that the ``id`` matches + the input index (when used with a video device node) or the pad + index (when used with a subdevice node) from which you want to + receive events. + + This event has a struct + :c:type:`v4l2_event_src_change` + associated with it. The ``changes`` bitfield denotes what has + changed for the subscribed pad. If multiple events occurred before + application could dequeue them, then the changes will have the + ORed value of all the events generated. + * - ``V4L2_EVENT_MOTION_DET`` + - 6 + - Triggered whenever the motion detection state for one or more of + the regions changes. This event has a struct + :c:type:`v4l2_event_motion_det` + associated with it. + * - ``V4L2_EVENT_PRIVATE_START`` + - 0x08000000 + - Base event number for driver-private events. + + +.. tabularcolumns:: |p{4.4cm}|p{4.4cm}|p{8.5cm}| + +.. c:type:: v4l2_event_vsync + +.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_event_vsync + :header-rows: 0 + :stub-columns: 0 + :widths: 1 1 2 + + * - __u8 + - ``field`` + - The upcoming field.

Only valid if the + ``V4L2_EVENT_MD_FL_HAVE_FRAME_SEQ`` flag was set. + * - __u32 + - ``region_mask`` + - The bitmask of the regions that reported motion. There is at least + one region. If this field is 0, then no motion was detected at + all. If there is no ``V4L2_CID_DETECT_MD_REGION_GRID`` control + (see :ref:`detect-controls`) to assign a different region to + each cell in the motion detection grid, then that all cells are + automatically assigned to the default region 0. + + +.. tabularcolumns:: |p{6.6cm}|p{2.2cm}|p{8.5cm}| + +.. _ctrl-changes-flags: + +.. flat-table:: Control Changes + :header-rows: 0 + :stub-columns: 0 + :widths: 3 1 4 + + * - ``V4L2_EVENT_CTRL_CH_VALUE`` + - 0x0001 + - This control event was triggered because the value of the control + changed. Special cases: Volatile controls do no generate this + event; If a control has the ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_EXECUTE_ON_WRITE`` + flag set, then this event is sent as well, regardless its value. + * - ``V4L2_EVENT_CTRL_CH_FLAGS`` + - 0x0002 + - This control event was triggered because the control flags + changed. + * - ``V4L2_EVENT_CTRL_CH_RANGE`` + - 0x0004 + - This control event was triggered because the minimum, maximum, + step or the default value of the control changed. + * - ``V4L2_EVENT_CTRL_CH_DIMENSIONS`` + - 0x0008 + - This control event was triggered because the dimensions of the + control changed. Note that the number of dimensions remains the + same. + + +.. tabularcolumns:: |p{6.6cm}|p{2.2cm}|p{8.5cm}| + +.. _src-changes-flags: + +.. flat-table:: Source Changes + :header-rows: 0 + :stub-columns: 0 + :widths: 3 1 4 + + * - ``V4L2_EVENT_SRC_CH_RESOLUTION`` + - 0x0001 + - This event gets triggered when a resolution change is detected at + an input. This can come from an input connector or from a video + decoder. Applications will have to query the new resolution (if + any, the signal may also have been lost). + + For stateful decoders follow the guidelines in :ref:`decoder`. + Video Capture devices have to query the new timings using + :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERY_DV_TIMINGS` or + :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYSTD `. + + *Important*: even if the new video timings appear identical to the old + ones, receiving this event indicates that there was an issue with the + video signal and you must stop and restart streaming + (:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF ` + followed by :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON `). The reason is + that many Video Capture devices are not able to recover from a temporary + loss of signal and so restarting streaming I/O is required in order for + the hardware to synchronize to the video signal. + +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 ` chapter. -- cgit v1.2.3
