## Description

### Experimental

This is an experimental interface and may change in the future.

This ioctl lets applications enumerate available frame intervals on a given sub-device pad. Frame intervals only makes sense for sub-devices that can control the frame period on their own. This includes, for instance, image sensors and TV tuners.

For the common use case of image sensors, the frame intervals available on the sub-device output pad depend on the frame format and size on the same pad. Applications must thus specify the desired format and size when enumerating frame intervals.

To enumerate frame intervals applications initialize the index, pad, code, width and height fields of &v4l2-subdev-frame-interval-enum; and call the `VIDIOC_SUBDEV_ENUM_FRAME_INTERVAL` ioctl with a pointer to this structure. Drivers fill the rest of the structure or return an &EINVAL; if one of the input fields is invalid. All frame intervals are enumerable by beginning at index zero and incrementing by one until EINVAL is returned.

Available frame intervals may depend on the current 'try' formats at other pads of the sub-device, as well as on the current active links. See &VIDIOC-SUBDEV-G-FMT; for more information about the try formats.

Sub-devices that support the frame interval enumeration ioctl should implemented it on a single pad only. Its behaviour when supported on multiple pads of the same sub-device is not defined.

### struct v4l2_subdev_frame_interval_enum

&cs-str;
__u32 | index | Number of the format in the enumeration, set by the application.
__u32 | pad | Pad number as reported by the media controller API.
__u32 | code | The media bus format code, as defined in .
__u32 | width | Frame width, in pixels.
__u32 | height | Frame height, in pixels.
&v4l2-fract; | interval | Period, in seconds, between consecutive video frames.
__u32 | reserved[9] | Reserved for future extensions. Applications and drivers must set the array to zero.

&return-value;

EINVAL

  The &v4l2-subdev-frame-interval-enum; pad references a non-existing pad, one of the code, width or height fields are invalid for the given pad or the index field is out of bounds.
