threeeye bc1d038eac REVVL 6 Pro kernel bring-up: full working tree snapshot (2026-09-12)
Squashed backup commit (no shallow-clone history issues) of
xiaomi-mt6833-dev/kernel_xiaomi_mt6833 (lineage-23.2 branch, upstream
commit 9eece662e) plus all fixes applied to get everpal_defconfig building
clean against a modern (GCC 15.2.0) toolchain -- see the previous commit
message on the lineage-23.2 branch (also in this repo history is not
available here since this is a squashed snapshot; full incremental history
lives in the local DL380 checkout and the upstream GitHub remote).

***********************
ioctl VIDIOC_LOG_STATUS
***********************
Name
====
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.
