51 | ----------- |
| 52 | ||
| 53 | This ioctl is for DVB devices only. To get events from a V4L2 decoder | |
| 54 | use the V4L2 :ref:`VIDIOC_DQEVENT` ioctl instead. | |
| 55 | ||
| 56 | This ioctl call returns an event of type video_event if available. If | |
| 57 | an event is not available, the behavior depends on whether the device is | |
| 58 | in blocking or non-blocking mode. In the latter case, the call fails | |
| 59 | immediately with errno set to ``EWOULDBLOCK``. In the former case, the call | |
| 60 | blocks until an event becomes available. The standard Linux poll() | |
| 61 | and/or select() system calls can be used with the device file descriptor | |
| 62 | to watch for new events. For select(), the file descriptor should be | |
| 63 | included in the exceptfds argument, and for poll(), POLLPRI should be | |
| 64 | specified as the wake-up condition. Read-only permissions are sufficient | |
| 65 | for this ioctl call. | |

| 88 | On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set | |
| 89 | appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the | |
| 90 | :ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter. | |
