+
+ <para>To enumerate pads and/or links for a given entity, applications set
+ the entity field of a &media-links-enum; structure and initialize the
+ &media-pad-desc; and &media-link-desc; structure arrays pointed by the
+ <structfield>pads</structfield> and <structfield>links</structfield> fields.
+ They then call the MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_LINKS ioctl with a pointer to this
+ structure.</para>
+ <para>If the <structfield>pads</structfield> field is not NULL, the driver
+ fills the <structfield>pads</structfield> array with information about the
+ entity's pads. The array must have enough room to store all the entity's
+ pads. The number of pads can be retrieved with the &MEDIA-IOC-ENUM-ENTITIES;
+ ioctl.</para>
+ <para>If the <structfield>links</structfield> field is not NULL, the driver
+ fills the <structfield>links</structfield> array with information about the
+ entity's outbound links. The array must have enough room to store all the
+ entity's outbound links. The number of outbound links can be retrieved with
+ the &MEDIA-IOC-ENUM-ENTITIES; ioctl.</para>
+ <para>Only forward links that originate at one of the entity's source pads
+ are returned during the enumeration process.</para>
