@ -619,6 +619,16 @@ in your v4l2_file_operations struct.
Do not use .ioctl! This is deprecated and will go away in the future.
In some cases you want to tell the core that a function you had specified in
your v4l2_ioctl_ops should be ignored. You can mark such ioctls by calling this
function before video_device_register is called:
void v4l2_dont_use_cmd(struct video_device *vdev, unsigned int cmd);
This tends to be needed if based on external factors (e.g. which card is
being used) you want to turns off certain features in v4l2_ioctl_ops without
having to make a new struct.
The v4l2_file_operations struct is a subset of file_operations. The main
difference is that the inode argument is omitted since it is never used.
