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

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