++Read-only sub-device userspace API
++----------------------------------
++
++Bridge drivers that control their connected subdevices through direct calls to
++the kernel API realized by :c:type:`v4l2_subdev_ops` structure do not usually
++want userspace to be able to change the same parameters through the subdevice
++device node and thus do not usually register any.
++
++It is sometimes useful to report to userspace the current subdevice
++configuration through a read-only API, that does not permit applications to
++change to the device parameters but allows interfacing to the subdevice device
++node to inspect them.
++
++For instance, to implement cameras based on computational photography, userspace
++needs to know the detailed camera sensor configuration (in terms of skipping,
++binning, cropping and scaling) for each supported output resolution. To support
++such use cases, bridge drivers may expose the subdevice operations to userspace
++through a read-only API.
++
++To create a read-only device node for all the subdevices registered with the
++``V4L2_SUBDEV_FL_HAS_DEVNODE`` set, the :c:type:`v4l2_device` driver should call
++:c:func:`v4l2_device_register_ro_subdev_nodes`.
++
++Access to the following ioctls for userspace applications is restricted on
++sub-device device nodes registered with
++:c:func:`v4l2_device_register_ro_subdev_nodes`.
++
++``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FMT``,
++``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_CROP``,
++``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_SELECTION``:
++
++ These ioctls are only allowed on a read-only subdevice device node
++ for the :ref:`V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_TRY <v4l2-subdev-format-whence>`
++ formats and selection rectangles.
++
++``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FRAME_INTERVAL``,
++``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_DV_TIMINGS``,
++``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_STD``:
++
++ These ioctls are not allowed on a read-only subdevice node.
++
++In case the ioctl is not allowed, or the format to modify is set to
++``V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_ACTIVE``, the core returns a negative error code and
++the errno variable is set to ``-EPERM``.
