    <note>
      <title>Experimental</title>

      <para>This is an <link
linkend="experimental">experimental</link> interface and may change in
the future.</para>
    </note>

    <para>For driver debugging purposes this ioctl allows test
applications to query the driver about the chips present on the TV
card. Regular applications must not use it. When you found a chip
specific bug, please contact the linux-media mailing list (&v4l-ml;)
so it can be fixed.</para>

    <para>Additionally the Linux kernel must be compiled with the
<constant>CONFIG_VIDEO_ADV_DEBUG</constant> option to enable this ioctl.</para>

    <para>To query the driver applications must initialize the
<structfield>match.type</structfield> and
<structfield>match.addr</structfield> or <structfield>match.name</structfield>
fields of a &v4l2-dbg-chip-info;
and call <constant>VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_INFO</constant> with a pointer to
this structure. On success the driver stores information about the
selected chip in the <structfield>name</structfield> and
<structfield>flags</structfield> fields.</para>

    <para>When <structfield>match.type</structfield> is
<constant>V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_BRIDGE</constant>,
<structfield>match.addr</structfield> selects the nth bridge 'chip'
on the TV card. You can enumerate all chips by starting at zero and
incrementing <structfield>match.addr</structfield> by one until
<constant>VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_INFO</constant> fails with an &EINVAL;.
The number zero always selects the bridge chip itself, &eg; the chip
connected to the PCI or USB bus. Non-zero numbers identify specific
parts of the bridge chip such as an AC97 register block.</para>

    <para>When <structfield>match.type</structfield> is
<constant>V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_SUBDEV</constant>,
<structfield>match.addr</structfield> selects the nth sub-device. This
allows you to enumerate over all sub-devices.</para>

    <para>On success, the <structfield>name</structfield> field will
contain a chip name and the <structfield>flags</structfield> field will
contain <constant>V4L2_CHIP_FL_READABLE</constant> if the driver supports
reading registers from the device or <constant>V4L2_CHIP_FL_WRITABLE</constant>
if the driver supports writing registers to the device.</para>

    <para>We recommended the <application>v4l2-dbg</application>
utility over calling this ioctl directly. It is available from the
LinuxTV v4l-dvb repository; see <ulink
url="http://linuxtv.org/repo/">http://linuxtv.org/repo/</ulink> for
access instructions.</para>
