+ <para><emphasis role="bold">NOTE:</emphasis> This new ioctl is programmed to be added on Kernel 4.6. Its definition/arguments may change until its final version.</para>
+
+ <para>The typical usage of this ioctl is to call it twice.
+ On the first call, the structure defined at &media-v2-topology; should
+ be zeroed. At return, if no errors happen, this ioctl will return the
+ <constant>topology_version</constant> and the total number of entities,
+ interfaces, pads and links.</para>
+ <para>Before the second call, the userspace should allocate arrays to
+ store the graph elements that are desired, putting the pointers to them
+ at the ptr_entities, ptr_interfaces, ptr_links and/or ptr_pads, keeping
+ the other values untouched.</para>
+ <para>If the <constant>topology_version</constant> remains the same, the
+ ioctl should fill the desired arrays with the media graph elements.</para>
