586027ce MCC |
50 | =========== |
51 | ||
52 | This ioctl call starts a tuning operation using specified parameters. | |
53 | The result of this call will be successful if the parameters were valid | |
54 | and the tuning could be initiated. The result of the tuning operation in | |
55 | itself, however, will arrive asynchronously as an event (see | |
56 | documentation for :ref:`FE_GET_EVENT` and | |
57 | FrontendEvent.) If a new :ref:`FE_SET_FRONTEND` | |
58 | operation is initiated before the previous one was completed, the | |
59 | previous operation will be aborted in favor of the new one. This command | |
60 | requires read/write access to the device. | |

5377d91f MH |
65 | |
66 | On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set | |
67 | appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the | |
68 | :ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter. | |
