ioctl(2) ?

Hi,

is there any way to do a ioctl in python? I didn't find it in the os
module...

Thanks,
P.

Hi all!! I'm trying to use Python to help in testing software for the Windows Platform. The sw we develop at the company I work for sets up quite a number of "new" device drives in Windows, and as part of the testing process I'd need to be able to "query" them about their state and suchlike. The "interface" for doing so involves opening "device files" (of the form \\.\Device\CDCrypto) and sending them ioctls to query their state.

I want to know which input one of my V4L devices is using. This is done using the VIDIOC_G_INPUT ioctl. I'm trying to figure out how to do it in Python. I found the pyv4l. http://pyv4l.sourceforge.net/ It hasn't been updated in awhile. It doesn't know about VIDIOC_G_INPUT. I tried creating it with this. foo = VIDIOCGINPUT = video4linux._IOR('v', 38, 'i') I was even able to get ioctl() to go with this.

I have need to determine the capabilities of an optical drive. Right now I'm using SDL to find the drives, and ioctl to get the capabilities. Unfortunately, based on the output that I'm getting, either my method of interpretation is bad or these drives are misrepresenting themselves (which they shouldn't be, as other programs can use the abilites they would here appear to be lacking). If anyone has experience with the...

Hello, I am writing an app that records from the soundcard using ossaudiodev.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
