There were lots of consts at the media docbook that should be, instead, references. Convert the ones that can easily be done by an automatic script. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>

Arguments
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
``fd``
|
|
File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
|
|
|
|
``request``
|
|
VIDIOC_PREPARE_BUF
|
|
|
|
``argp``
|
|
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
Applications can optionally call the :ref:`VIDIOC_PREPARE_BUF` ioctl to
|
|
pass ownership of the buffer to the driver before actually enqueuing it,
|
|
using the :ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF` ioctl, and to prepare it for future I/O. Such
|
|
preparations may include cache invalidation or cleaning. Performing them
|
|
in advance saves time during the actual I/O. In case such cache
|
|
operations are not required, the application can use one of
|
|
``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_NO_CACHE_INVALIDATE`` and
|
|
``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_NO_CACHE_CLEAN`` flags to skip the respective step.
|
|
|
|
The :c:type:`struct v4l2_buffer` structure is specified in
|
|
:ref:`buffer`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
EBUSY
|
|
File I/O is in progress.
|
|
|
|
EINVAL
|
|
The buffer ``type`` is not supported, or the ``index`` is out of
|
|
bounds, or no buffers have been allocated yet, or the ``userptr`` or
|
|
``length`` are invalid.
