29 File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
32 Pointer to struct :c:type:`v4l2_frequency`.
38 To get the current tuner or modulator radio frequency applications set
39 the ``tuner`` field of a struct
40 :c:type:`v4l2_frequency` to the respective tuner or
41 modulator number (only input devices have tuners, only output devices
42 have modulators), zero out the ``reserved`` array and call the
43 :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FREQUENCY <VIDIOC_G_FREQUENCY>` ioctl with a pointer to this structure. The
44 driver stores the current frequency in the ``frequency`` field.
46 To change the current tuner or modulator radio frequency applications
47 initialize the ``tuner``, ``type`` and ``frequency`` fields, and the
48 ``reserved`` array of a struct :c:type:`v4l2_frequency`
49 and call the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY <VIDIOC_G_FREQUENCY>` ioctl with a pointer to this
50 structure. When the requested frequency is not possible the driver
51 assumes the closest possible value. However :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY <VIDIOC_G_FREQUENCY>` is a
52 write-only ioctl, it does not return the actual new frequency.

66 - The tuner or modulator index number. This is the same value as in
67 the struct :c:type:`v4l2_input` ``tuner`` field and
68 the struct :c:type:`v4l2_tuner` ``index`` field, or
69 the struct :c:type:`v4l2_output` ``modulator`` field
70 and the struct :c:type:`v4l2_modulator` ``index``
74 - The tuner type. This is the same value as in the struct
75 :c:type:`v4l2_tuner` ``type`` field. The type must be
76 set to ``V4L2_TUNER_RADIO`` for ``/dev/radioX`` device nodes, and
77 to ``V4L2_TUNER_ANALOG_TV`` for all others. Set this field to
78 ``V4L2_TUNER_RADIO`` for modulators (currently only radio
79 modulators are supported). See :c:type:`v4l2_tuner_type`
82 - Tuning frequency in units of 62.5 kHz, or if the struct
83 :c:type:`v4l2_tuner` or struct
84 :c:type:`v4l2_modulator` ``capability`` flag
85 ``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_LOW`` is set, in units of 62.5 Hz. A 1 Hz unit is
86 used when the ``capability`` flag ``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_1HZ`` is set.
89 - Reserved for future extensions. Drivers and applications must set
96 On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
97 appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
98 :ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
