51 | |||
52 | <para>To enumerate pads and/or links for a given entity, applications set | ||
53 | the entity field of a &media-links-enum; structure and initialize the | ||
54 | &media-pad-desc; and &media-link-desc; structure arrays pointed by the | ||
55 | <structfield>pads</structfield> and <structfield>links</structfield> fields. | ||
56 | They then call the MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_LINKS ioctl with a pointer to this | ||
57 | structure.</para> | ||
58 | <para>If the <structfield>pads</structfield> field is not NULL, the driver | ||
59 | fills the <structfield>pads</structfield> array with information about the | ||
60 | entity's pads. The array must have enough room to store all the entity's | ||
61 | pads. The number of pads can be retrieved with the &MEDIA-IOC-ENUM-ENTITIES; | ||
62 | ioctl.</para> | ||
63 | <para>If the <structfield>links</structfield> field is not NULL, the driver | ||
64 | fills the <structfield>links</structfield> array with information about the | ||
65 | entity's outbound links. The array must have enough room to store all the | ||
66 | entity's outbound links. The number of outbound links can be retrieved with | ||
67 | the &MEDIA-IOC-ENUM-ENTITIES; ioctl.</para> | ||
68 | <para>Only forward links that originate at one of the entity's source pads | ||
69 | are returned during the enumeration process.</para> | ||
