-Synopsis
-========
-
-.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES, struct media_entity_desc *argp )
- :name: MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES

-
-Arguments
-=========
-
-``fd``
- File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <media-func-open>`.
-
-``argp``
-
-
-Description
-===========
-
-To query the attributes of an entity, applications set the id field of a
-struct :c:type:`media_entity_desc` structure and
-call the MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES ioctl with a pointer to this
-structure. The driver fills the rest of the structure or returns an
-EINVAL error code when the id is invalid.
-
-.. _media-ent-id-flag-next:
-
-Entities can be enumerated by or'ing the id with the
-``MEDIA_ENT_ID_FLAG_NEXT`` flag. The driver will return information
-about the entity with the smallest id strictly larger than the requested
-one ('next entity'), or the ``EINVAL`` error code if there is none.
-
-Entity IDs can be non-contiguous. Applications must *not* try to
-enumerate entities by calling MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES with increasing
-id's until they get an error.
