+capability is supported.
+
+
+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.

+ Make sure that these filters are stopped before starting this
+ filter.
