DESCRIPTION
This ioctl call returns the bit error rate for the signal currently
received/demodulated by the front-end. For this command, read-only
access to the device is sufficient.
SYNOPSIS
int ioctl(int fd, int request = :ref:`FE_READ_BER <FE_READ_BER>`,
uint32_t *ber);
PARAMETERS
.. flat-table::
:header-rows: 0
:stub-columns: 0
- .. row 1
- int fd
- File descriptor returned by a previous call to open().
- .. row 2
- int request
- Equals :ref:`FE_READ_BER <FE_READ_BER>` for this command.
- .. row 3
- uint32_t *ber
- The bit error rate is stored into *ber.
RETURN VALUE
On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
