From c5c631416789004e7205a56ab1aaab2b3a011b1b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hans Verkuil Date: Tue, 22 Mar 2016 07:30:29 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] [media] vidioc-dv-timings-cap.xml: explicitly state that pad and reserved should be zeroed The DV_TIMINGS_CAP documentation didn't state clearly that the pad and reserved fields should be zeroed by the application. For subdev pad can be other values as well. It also mistakenly said that only drivers would have to zero the reserved field, that's not correct.
