Synopsis
|
========
|
|
.. c:function:: int ioctl(int fd, FE_GET_EVENT, struct dvb_frontend_event *ev)
|
:name: FE_GET_EVENT
|
|
|
Arguments
|
=========
|
|
``fd``
|
File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open() <dvb-fe-open>`.
|
|
``ev``
|
Points to the location where the event, if any, is to be stored.
|
|
|
Description
|
===========
|
|
This ioctl call returns a frontend event if available. If an event is
|
not available, the behavior depends on whether the device is in blocking
|
or non-blocking mode. In the latter case, the call fails immediately
|
with errno set to ``EWOULDBLOCK``. In the former case, the call blocks until
|
an event becomes available.
|
|
|
Return Value
|
============
|
|
On success 0 is returned.
|
|
On error -1 is returned, and the ``errno`` variable is set
|
appropriately.
