vchannaiah bf294e833b cdrom: support read sub-channel command in LBA format
userspace application can send READ_SUB_CHANNEL command with time bit
enabled and disabled. The time bit allows selection of address reporting
format. If the time bit is disabled the response is in logical block
address(CDROM_LBA) format, represented as a 32-bit integer with ms-byte
first. If the time bit is enabled the response is in time format i.e.,
minutes, second, frame (CDROM_MSF) format.

The information that follows was determined from reading kernel source
code. It is likely that some corrections will be made over time.
General:
Unless otherwise specified, all ioctl calls return 0 on success
and -1 with errno set to an appropriate value on error. (Some
ioctls return non-negative data values.)
Unless otherwise specified, all ioctl calls return -1 and set
errno to EFAULT on a failed attempt to copy data to or from user
address space.
Individual drivers may return error codes not listed here.
Unless otherwise specified, all data structures and constants
are defined in <linux/cdrom.h>

CDROMSTOP Stop the cdrom drive
usage:
ioctl(fd, CDROMSTOP, 0);

notes:
Exact interpretation of this ioctl depends on the device,
but most seem to spin the drive down.

inputs: none
outputs: none
error return:
ENOSYS cd drive not audio-capable.
notes:
Exact interpretation of this ioctl depends on the device,
but most seem to spin the drive up and/or close the tray.
Other devices ignore the ioctl completely.
CDROMEJECT Ejects the cdrom media
usage:
ioctl(fd, CDROMEJECT, 0);
inputs: none
outputs: none
error returns:

Only the start values are significant.
outputs:
Data written to address provided by user.
error return:
EINVAL address less than 0, or msf less than 0:2:0
ENOMEM out of memory
notes:
As of 2.6.8.1, comments in <linux/cdrom.h> indicate that this
ioctl accepts a cdrom_read structure, but actual source code
reads a cdrom_msf structure and writes a buffer of data to
the same address.
MSF values are converted to LBA values via this formula:
lba = (((m * CD_SECS) + s) * CD_FRAMES + f) - CD_MSF_OFFSET;

Identical to CDROMREADRAW except that block size is
CD_FRAMESIZE (2048) bytes

(struct cdrom_read)
notes:
Identical to CDROMREADRAW except that block size is
CD_FRAMESIZE_RAW0 (2336) bytes

usage:
struct cdrom_read_audio ra;
ioctl(fd, CDROMREADAUDIO, &ra);

ENXIO drive has no queue (probably means invalid fd)
ENOMEM out of memory
CDROMEJECT_SW enable(1)/disable(0) auto-ejecting

inputs:
Flag specifying auto-eject flag.

inputs: none
outputs:
Universal Product Code
error return:
ENOSYS Drive is not capable of reading MCN data.
notes:
Source code comments state:
The following function is implemented, although very few
audio discs give Universal Product Code information, which
should just be the Medium Catalog Number on the box. Note,
that the way the code is written on the CD is /not/ uniform
across all discs!

Not implemented, as of 2.6.8.1
CDROMRESET hard-reset the drive
usage:

CDROM_MEDIA_CHANGED Check is media changed
usage:
int slot;
ioctl(fd, CDROM_MEDIA_CHANGED, slot);
inputs:

May also be special values CDSL_NONE or CDSL_CURRENT
outputs:
Ioctl return value is 0 or 1 depending on whether the media
has been changed, or -1 on error.

CDS_NO_INFO
CDS_AUDIO
CDS_MIXED
CDS_XA_2_2
CDS_XA_2_1
CDS_DATA_1
error returns: none at present
notes:
Source code comments state:
Ok, this is where problems start. The current interface for
the CDROM_DISC_STATUS ioctl is flawed. It makes the false
assumption that CDs are all CDS_DATA_1 or all CDS_AUDIO, etc.
Unfortunately, while this is often the case, it is also
very common for CDs to have some tracks with data, and some
tracks with audio. Just because I feel like it, I declare
the following to be the best way to cope. If the CD has
ANY data tracks on it, it will be returned as a data CD.
If it has any XA tracks, I will return it as that. Now I
could simplify this interface by combining these returns with
the above, but this more clearly demonstrates the problem
with the current interface. Too bad this wasn't designed
to use bitmasks... -Erik
Well, now we have the option CDS_MIXED: a mixed-type CD.
User level programmers might feel the ioctl is not very
useful.

CDROM_CHANGER_NSLOTS Get number of slots
usage:
ioctl(fd, CDROM_CHANGER_NSLOTS, 0);
inputs: none

error returns:
EDRIVE_CANT_DO_THIS Door lock function not supported.
EBUSY Attempt to unlock when multiple users
have the drive open and not CAP_SYS_ADMIN
notes:
As of 2.6.8.1, the lock flag is a global lock, meaning that
all CD drives will be locked or unlocked together. This is
probably a bug.
The EDRIVE_CANT_DO_THIS value is defined in <linux/cdrom.h>
and is currently (2.6.8.1) the same as EOPNOTSUPP
CDROM_DEBUG Turn debug messages on/off
usage:
int debug;
ioctl(fd, CDROM_DEBUG, debug);
inputs:
Cdrom debug flag, 0=disable, 1=enable
outputs:

error return:
EACCES Access denied: requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN
CDROM_GET_CAPABILITY get capabilities
usage:
ioctl(fd, CDROM_GET_CAPABILITY, 0);
inputs: none
outputs:
The ioctl return value is the current device capability
flags. See CDC_CLOSE_TRAY, CDC_OPEN_TRAY, etc.
CDROMAUDIOBUFSIZ set the audio buffer size
usage:
int arg;
ioctl(fd, CDROMAUDIOBUFSIZ, val);
inputs:
New audio buffer size
outputs:
The ioctl return value is the new audio buffer size, or -1
on error.
error return:
ENOSYS Not supported by this driver.
notes:
Not supported by all drivers.
DVD_READ_STRUCT Read structure
usage:
dvd_struct s;
ioctl(fd, DVD_READ_STRUCT, &s);
inputs:
dvd_struct structure, containing:
type specifies the information desired, one of
DVD_STRUCT_PHYSICAL, DVD_STRUCT_COPYRIGHT,
DVD_STRUCT_DISCKEY, DVD_STRUCT_BCA,
DVD_STRUCT_MANUFACT
physical.layer_num desired layer, indexed from 0
copyright.layer_num desired layer, indexed from 0
disckey.agid
outputs:
dvd_struct structure, containing:
physical for type == DVD_STRUCT_PHYSICAL
copyright for type == DVD_STRUCT_COPYRIGHT
disckey.value for type == DVD_STRUCT_DISCKEY
bca.{len,value} for type == DVD_STRUCT_BCA
manufact.{len,valu} for type == DVD_STRUCT_MANUFACT
error returns:
EINVAL physical.layer_num exceeds number of layers

Not implemented, as of 2.6.8.1

dvd_authinfo ai;
ioctl(fd, DVD_AUTH, &ai);
inputs:

inputs:
cdrom_generic_command structure containing the packet to send.
outputs: none
cdrom_generic_command structure containing results.
error return:
EIO command failed.
EPERM Operation not permitted, either because a
write command was attempted on a drive which
is opened read-only, or because the command
requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO
EINVAL cgc.data_direction not set
CDROM_NEXT_WRITABLE get next writable block
usage:
long next;
ioctl(fd, CDROM_NEXT_WRITABLE, &next);
inputs: none
outputs:
The next writable block.
notes:
If the device does not support this ioctl directly, the
ioctl will return CDROM_LAST_WRITTEN + 7.
CDROM_LAST_WRITTEN get last block written on disc
usage:
long last;
ioctl(fd, CDROM_LAST_WRITTEN, &last);
inputs: none
outputs:
The last block written on disc
notes:
If the device does not support this ioctl directly, the
result is derived from the disc's table of contents. If the
table of contents can't be read, this ioctl returns an
error.
