49-----------

51This ioctl call sets up a filter according to the filter and mask
52parameters provided. A timeout may be defined stating number of seconds
53to wait for a section to be loaded. A value of 0 means that no timeout
54should be applied. Finally there is a flag field where it is possible to
55state whether a section should be CRC-checked, whether the filter should
56be a ”one-shot” filter, i.e. if the filtering operation should be
57stopped after the first section is received, and whether the filtering
58operation should be started immediately (without waiting for a
59DMX_START ioctl call). If a filter was previously set-up, this filter
60will be canceled, and the receive buffer will be flushed.
