===========
The NET_ADD_IF ioctl system call selects the Packet ID (PID) that
contains a TCP/IP traffic, the type of encapsulation to be used (MPE or
ULE) and the interface number for the new interface to be created. When
the system call successfully returns, a new virtual network interface is
created.

media: dvb uAPI docs: adjust return value ioctl descriptions There are several issues on the return value for ioctls: - Text is confusing; - Some error codes don't exist; - The non-generic error codes should come before the text that points to the generic error codes; - Tables don't contain column size hints; - Some references are not marked as such. Correct them. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
