Benjamin Gaignard Jan. 26, 2024, 11:01 a.m. UTC
VIDIOC_DELETE_BUFS ioctl allows to delete buffers from a queue.
The number of buffers to delete in given by count field of
struct v4l2_delete_buffers and the range start at the index
specified in the same structure.

Signed-off-by: Benjamin Gaignard <benjamin.gaignard@collabora.com>
---
version 18:
- remove per queue capability flag.
- rework v4l_delete_bufs() to check if VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS is enabled
  and if vidioc_delete_bufs pointer is valid.
- update documentation.

Any buffer in range -> One or more of the buffers in the range

Any buffer in range -> One or more of the buffers in the range

I think this is a much better place to disable DELETE_BUFS if CREATE_BUFS
is missing. Just check for the presence of create_bufs before enabling
delete_bufs.

+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+    File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open()`.
+
+``argp``
+    Pointer to struct :c:type:`v4l2_delete_buffers`.
+
+Description
+===========
+
+Applications can optionally call the :ref:`VIDIOC_DELETE_BUFS` ioctl to
+delete buffers from a queue.
+:ref:`VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS` ioctl support is mandatory to enable :ref:`VIDIOC_DELETE_BUFS`.
+
+.. c:type:: v4l2_delete_buffers

+    :header-rows:  0
+    :stub-columns: 0
+    :widths:       1 1 2
+
+    * - __u32
+      - ``index``
+      - The starting buffer index to delete.
+    * - __u32
+      - ``count``
+      - The number of buffers to be deleted with indices 'index' until 'index + count - 1'.
+        All buffers in this range must be valid and in DEQUEUED state.
+        If count is set to 0 :ref:`VIDIOC_DELETE_BUFS` will do nothing and return 0.
+    * - __u32
+      - ``type``
+      - Type of the stream or buffers, this is the same as the struct
+	:c:type:`v4l2_format` ``type`` field. See
+	:c:type:`v4l2_buf_type` for valid values.
+    * - __u32
+      - ``reserved``\ [13]
+      - A place holder for future extensions. Drivers and applications
+	must set the array to zero.
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
