<para>To enumerate image formats applications initialize the
<structfield>type</structfield> and <structfield>index</structfield>
field of &v4l2-fmtdesc; and call the
<constant>VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT</constant> ioctl with a pointer to this
structure. Drivers fill the rest of the structure or return an
&EINVAL;. All formats are enumerable by beginning at index zero and
incrementing by one until <errorcode>EINVAL</errorcode> is
returned.</para>
