============================
Summary of CDROM ioctl calls
============================

- Edward A. Falk <efalk@google.com>

November, 2004

This document attempts to describe the ioctl(2) calls supported by
the CDROM layer.  These are by-and-large implemented (as of Linux 2.6)
in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c and drivers/block/scsi_ioctl.c

ioctl values are listed in <linux/cdrom.h>.  As of this writing, they
are as follows:

	========================  ===============================================
	CDROMPAUSE		  Pause Audio Operation
	CDROMRESUME		  Resume paused Audio Operation
	CDROMPLAYMSF		  Play Audio MSF (struct cdrom_msf)
	CDROMPLAYTRKIND		  Play Audio Track/index (struct cdrom_ti)
	CDROMREADTOCHDR		  Read TOC header (struct cdrom_tochdr)
	CDROMREADTOCENTRY	  Read TOC entry (struct cdrom_tocentry)
	CDROMSTOP		  Stop the cdrom drive
	CDROMSTART		  Start the cdrom drive
	CDROMEJECT		  Ejects the cdrom media
	CDROMVOLCTRL		  Control output volume (struct cdrom_volctrl)
	CDROMSUBCHNL		  Read subchannel data (struct cdrom_subchnl)
	CDROMREADMODE2		  Read CDROM mode 2 data (2336 Bytes)
				  (struct cdrom_read)
	CDROMREADMODE1		  Read CDROM mode 1 data (2048 Bytes)
				  (struct cdrom_read)
	CDROMREADAUDIO		  (struct cdrom_read_audio)
	CDROMEJECT_SW		  enable(1)/disable(0) auto-ejecting
	CDROMMULTISESSION	  Obtain the start-of-last-session
				  address of multi session disks
				  (struct cdrom_multisession)
	CDROM_GET_MCN		  Obtain the "Universal Product Code"
				  if available (struct cdrom_mcn)
	CDROM_GET_UPC		  Deprecated, use CDROM_GET_MCN instead.

General:

	Unless otherwise specified, all ioctl calls return 0 on success
	and -1 with errno set to an appropriate value on error.  (Some
	ioctls return non-negative data values.)

	Unless otherwise specified, all ioctl calls return -1 and set
	errno to EFAULT on a failed attempt to copy data to or from user
	address space.

	Individual drivers may return error codes not listed here.

	Unless otherwise specified, all data structures and constants
	are defined in <linux/cdrom.h>

	notes:
		- Source code comments state::

		    The following function is implemented, although very few
		    audio discs give Universal Product Code information, which
		    should just be the Medium Catalog Number on the box.  Note,
		    that the way the code is written on the CD is /not/ uniform
		    across all discs!

	CDROM_GET_MCN  (deprecated)


	Not implemented, as of 2.6.8.1

	error returns:
		none at present

	notes:
	    - Source code comments state::


		Ok, this is where problems start.  The current interface for
		the CDROM_DISC_STATUS ioctl is flawed.  It makes the false
		assumption that CDs are all CDS_DATA_1 or all CDS_AUDIO, etc.
		Unfortunately, while this is often the case, it is also
		very common for CDs to have some tracks with data, and some
		tracks with audio.	Just because I feel like it, I declare
		the following to be the best way to cope.  If the CD has
		ANY data tracks on it, it will be returned as a data CD.
		If it has any XA tracks, I will return it as that.	Now I
		could simplify this interface by combining these returns with
		the above, but this more clearly demonstrates the problem
		with the current interface.  Too bad this wasn't designed
		to use bitmasks...	       -Erik

		Well, now we have the option CDS_MIXED: a mixed-type CD.
		User level programmers might feel the ioctl is not very
		useful.

	  - EBUSY

				Attempt to unlock when multiple users
				have the drive open and not CAP_SYS_ADMIN

	notes:
		As of 2.6.8.1, the lock flag is a global lock, meaning that
		all CD drives will be locked or unlocked together.  This is
