-VIDIOC_LOG_STATUS - Log driver status information
-
-
-Synopsis
-========
-
-.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, VIDIOC_LOG_STATUS)
- :name: VIDIOC_LOG_STATUS
-
-
-Arguments
-=========
-
-``fd``
- File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
-
-
-Description
-===========
-
-As the video/audio devices become more complicated it becomes harder to
-debug problems. When this ioctl is called the driver will output the
-current device status to the kernel log. This is particular useful when
-dealing with problems like no sound, no video and incorrectly tuned
-channels. Also many modern devices autodetect video and audio standards
-and this ioctl will report what the device thinks what the standard is.
-Mismatches may give an indication where the problem is.
-
-This ioctl is optional and not all drivers support it. It was introduced
-in Linux 2.6.15.
-
-
-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.
