``V4L2_EVENT_ALL`` can be used with

|
unsubscribing all events at once.

- ID of the event source. If there is no ID associated with the

|
event source, then set this to 0. Whether or not an event needs an
|
|
ID depends on the event type.

|
* - ``V4L2_EVENT_SUB_FL_SEND_INITIAL``
|
|
- 0x0001
|
|
- When this event is subscribed an initial event will be sent
|
|
containing the current status. This only makes sense for events
|
|
that are triggered by a status change such as ``V4L2_EVENT_CTRL``.
|
|
Other events will ignore this flag.
|
|
* - ``V4L2_EVENT_SUB_FL_ALLOW_FEEDBACK``
|
|
- 0x0002
|
|
- If set, then events directly caused by an ioctl will also be sent
|
|
to the filehandle that called that ioctl. For example, changing a
|
|
control using :ref:`VIDIOC_S_CTRL <VIDIOC_G_CTRL>` will cause
|
|
a V4L2_EVENT_CTRL to be sent back to that same filehandle.
|
|
Normally such events are suppressed to prevent feedback loops
|
|
where an application changes a control to a one value and then
|
|
another, and then receives an event telling it that that control
|
|
has changed to the first value.
|
|
|
|
Since it can't tell whether that event was caused by another
|
|
application or by the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_CTRL <VIDIOC_G_CTRL>`
|
|
call it is hard to decide whether to set the control to the value
|
|
in the event, or ignore it.
|
|
|
|
Think carefully when you set this flag so you won't get into
|
|
situations like that.
|
|
|
|
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.
