little program, big problem

[Ottavio Campana <ottavio@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!, I just started learning v4l and I'm trying to make a little program
in order to understand how it works.

It gives segfault, but I cannot understand why.

The error is:

bott@dirac:~/video > ./ottavio
mmap: Invalid argument
Segmentation fault
bott@dirac:~/video > gdb ottavio

I can't find the error. Can you please help me? 

Thank you.

Here's the code.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <linux/ioctl.h>
#include <linux/videodev.h>

main()
{
  int fd, siz;
  short targaheader[9]={ 0,2,0,0,0,0,444,555,8216 }; /* 444 and 555 are fake */
  void *map;
  struct video_mmap v;

  v.format=VIDEO_PALETTE_RGB24;    // ... GREY, RGB555, RGB565, RGB24, RGB32
  v.frame=0;                       // 0 or 1 (buffer 0 or buffer 1)
  v.width=768;                     // from 32 to 924 (sometimes limited to 768)
  v.height=576;                    // from 32 to 576
  siz=v.width*v.height*3;          // rgb24:3, rgb32:4, rgb565:2, rgb555:2

  targaheader[6]=v.width;
  targaheader[7]=v.height;         // update targa header for frame

  fd=open("/dev/video",O_RDONLY);  // open video device
  if(fd<0) perror("/dev/video");

  map=mmap(0, siz, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);   // select memory-map
  if(map==MAP_FAILED) perror("mmap");

  if(ioctl(fd, VIDIOCMCAPTURE, &v)<0)        // start capturing a frame
    perror("VIDIOCMCAPTURE");

  if(ioctl(fd, VIDIOCSYNC, &v.frame)<0)      // wait for end of frame
    perror("VIDIOCSYNC");

  fwrite(targaheader, sizeof(targaheader),   // save header & data to stdout
    1, stdout);
  fwrite(map, siz, 1, stdout);
}
