- <para>The ioctls are used to query and configure selection rectangles.</para>
-
-<para>To query the cropping (composing) rectangle set &v4l2-selection;
-<structfield> type </structfield> field to the respective buffer type.
-Do not use the multiplanar buffer types. Use <constant>V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE</constant>
-instead of <constant>V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE_MPLANE</constant> and use
-<constant>V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT</constant> instead of
-<constant>V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT_MPLANE</constant>. The next step is
-setting the value of &v4l2-selection; <structfield>target</structfield> field
-to <constant>V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP</constant> (<constant>V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE</constant>).
-Please refer to table <xref linkend="v4l2-selections-common" /> or <xref linkend="selection-api" />
-for additional targets. The <structfield>flags</structfield> and <structfield>reserved
-</structfield> fields of &v4l2-selection; are ignored and they must be filled
-with zeros. The driver fills the rest of the structure or
-returns &EINVAL; if incorrect buffer type or target was used. If cropping
-(composing) is not supported then the active rectangle is not mutable and it is
-always equal to the bounds rectangle. Finally, the &v4l2-rect;
-<structfield>r</structfield> rectangle is filled with the current cropping
-(composing) coordinates. The coordinates are expressed in driver-dependent
-units. The only exception are rectangles for images in raw formats, whose
-coordinates are always expressed in pixels.</para>
-
-<para>To change the cropping (composing) rectangle set the &v4l2-selection;
-<structfield>type</structfield> field to the respective buffer type. Do not
-use multiplanar buffers. Use <constant>V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE</constant>
-instead of <constant>V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE_MPLANE</constant>. Use
-<constant>V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT</constant> instead of
-<constant>V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT_MPLANE</constant>. The next step is
-setting the value of &v4l2-selection; <structfield>target</structfield> to
-<constant>V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP</constant> (<constant>V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE</constant>).
-Please refer to table <xref linkend="v4l2-selections-common" /> or <xref linkend="selection-api" />
-for additional targets. The &v4l2-rect; <structfield>r</structfield> rectangle need to be
-set to the desired active area. Field &v4l2-selection; <structfield> reserved
-</structfield> is ignored and must be filled with zeros. The driver may adjust
-coordinates of the requested rectangle. An application may
-introduce constraints to control rounding behaviour. The &v4l2-selection;
-<structfield>flags</structfield> field must be set to one of the following:
-
-<itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
-<para><constant>0</constant> - The driver can adjust the rectangle size freely
-and shall choose a crop/compose rectangle as close as possible to the requested
-one.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
-<para><constant>V4L2_SEL_FLAG_GE</constant> - The driver is not allowed to
-shrink the rectangle. The original rectangle must lay inside the adjusted
-one.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
-<para><constant>V4L2_SEL_FLAG_LE</constant> - The driver is not allowed to
-enlarge the rectangle. The adjusted rectangle must lay inside the original
-one.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
-<para><constant>V4L2_SEL_FLAG_GE | V4L2_SEL_FLAG_LE</constant> - The driver
-must choose the size exactly the same as in the requested rectangle.</para>
- </listitem>
-</itemizedlist>
-
-Please refer to <xref linkend="sel-const-adjust" />.
-
-</para>
-
-<para> The driver may have to adjusts the requested dimensions against hardware
-limits and other parts as the pipeline, i.e. the bounds given by the
-capture/output window or TV display. The closest possible values of horizontal
-and vertical offset and sizes are chosen according to following priority:
-
-<orderedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>Satisfy constraints from &v4l2-selection; <structfield>flags</structfield>.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>Adjust width, height, left, and top to hardware limits and alignments.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>Keep center of adjusted rectangle as close as possible to the original one.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>Keep width and height as close as possible to original ones.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>Keep horizontal and vertical offset as close as possible to original ones.</para>
- </listitem>
-</orderedlist>
-
-On success the &v4l2-rect; <structfield>r</structfield> field contains
-the adjusted rectangle. When the parameters are unsuitable the application may
-modify the cropping (composing) or image parameters and repeat the cycle until
-satisfactory parameters have been negotiated. If constraints flags have to be
-violated at then ERANGE is returned. The error indicates that <emphasis>there
-exist no rectangle</emphasis> that satisfies the constraints.</para>
