23Arguments
24=========
25
26``fd``
27    File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open() <dvb-fe-open>`.

29``ublocks``
30    The total number of uncorrected blocks seen by the driver so far.

33Description
34===========
35
36This ioctl call returns the number of uncorrected blocks detected by the
37device driver during its lifetime. For meaningful measurements, the
38increment in block count during a specific time interval should be
39calculated. For this command, read-only access to the device is
40sufficient.

42
43Return Value
44============
45
46On success 0 is returned.
47
48On error -1 is returned, and the ``errno`` variable is set
49appropriately.
