Review: python-ioctl-opt 1.3.1-1

Package Information

DescriptionPython implementation of asm-generic/ioctl.h

Pythonified Linux asm-generic/ioctl.h, providing functions to compute fcntl.ioctl's opt argument. This allows replicating driver code that computes ioctl command numbers, keeping magic constants and differences to C code to a minimum.

Supported object types for the size argument are ctypes types and instances, memoryview, bytearray, struct.Struct, and array.array.
