22Arguments
23=========
24
25``fd``
26    File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open()`.
27
28``argp``
29    Pointer to struct :c:type:`media_v2_topology`.

31Description
32===========
33
34The typical usage of this ioctl is to call it twice. On the first call,
35the structure defined at struct
36:c:type:`media_v2_topology` should be zeroed. At
37return, if no errors happen, this ioctl will return the
38``topology_version`` and the total number of entities, interfaces, pads
39and links.
40
41Before the second call, the userspace should allocate arrays to store
42the graph elements that are desired, putting the pointers to them at the
43ptr_entities, ptr_interfaces, ptr_links and/or ptr_pads, keeping the
44other values untouched.
45
46If the ``topology_version`` remains the same, the ioctl should fill the
47desired arrays with the media graph elements.

280Return Value
281============
282
283On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
284appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
285:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
286
287ENOSPC
288    This is returned when either one or more of the num_entities,
289    num_interfaces, num_links or num_pads are non-zero and are
290    smaller than the actual number of elements inside the graph. This
291    may happen if the ``topology_version`` changed when compared to the
292    last time this ioctl was called. Userspace should usually free the
293    area for the pointers, zero the struct elements and call this ioctl
294    again.
