From: Hans Verkuil Date: Fri, 7 Mar 2014 14:17:33 +0000 (-0300) Subject: [media] DocBook v4l2: update the G/S_EDID documentation X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e25436581f4117a0df9bf5539f6a7702a78df317;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git [media] DocBook v4l2: update the G/S_EDID documentation Document that it is now possible to call G/S_EDID from video nodes, not just sub-device nodes. Add a note that -EINVAL will be returned if the pad does not support EDIDs.
