+``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_G_JPEGCOMP, v4l2_jpegcompression *argp)``
+
+.. c:macro:: VIDIOC_S_JPEGCOMP
+
+``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_S_JPEGCOMP, const v4l2_jpegcompression *argp)``
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open()`.
+
+``argp``
+ Pointer to struct :c:type:`v4l2_jpegcompression`.
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These ioctls are **deprecated**. New drivers and applications should use
+:ref:`JPEG class controls <jpeg-controls>` for image quality and JPEG
+markers control.
+
+[to do]
+
+Ronald Bultje elaborates:
+
+APP is some application-specific information. The application can set it
+itself, and it'll be stored in the JPEG-encoded fields (eg; interlacing
+information for in an AVI or so). COM is the same, but it's comments,
+like 'encoded by me' or so.
+
+jpeg_markers describes whether the huffman tables, quantization tables
+and the restart interval information (all JPEG-specific stuff) should be
+stored in the JPEG-encoded fields. These define how the JPEG field is
+encoded. If you omit them, applications assume you've used standard
+encoding. You usually do want to add them.

+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.
