+ <para>This ioctl allows applications to enumerate all frame sizes
+ supported by a sub-device on the given pad for the given media bus format.
+ Supported formats can be retrieved with the &VIDIOC-SUBDEV-ENUM-MBUS-CODE;
+ ioctl.</para>
+
+ <para>To enumerate frame sizes applications initialize the
+ <structfield>pad</structfield>, <structfield>code</structfield> and
+ <structfield>index</structfield> fields of the
+ &v4l2-subdev-mbus-code-enum; and call the
+ <constant>VIDIOC_SUBDEV_ENUM_FRAME_SIZE</constant> ioctl with a pointer to
+ the structure. Drivers fill the minimum and maximum frame sizes or return
+ an &EINVAL; if one of the input parameters is invalid.</para>
+
+ <para>Sub-devices that only support discrete frame sizes (such as most
+ sensors) will return one or more frame sizes with identical minimum and
+ maximum values.</para>
+
+ <para>Not all possible sizes in given [minimum, maximum] ranges need to be
+ supported. For instance, a scaler that uses a fixed-point scaling ratio
+ might not be able to produce every frame size between the minimum and
+ maximum values. Applications must use the &VIDIOC-SUBDEV-S-FMT; ioctl to
+ try the sub-device for an exact supported frame size.</para>
+
+ <para>Available frame sizes may depend on the current 'try' formats at other
+ pads of the sub-device, as well as on the current active links and the
+ current values of V4L2 controls. See &VIDIOC-SUBDEV-G-FMT; for more
+ information about try formats.</para>
