* - Target name
- id
- Definition
- Valid for V4L2
- Valid for V4L2 subdev
* - ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP``
- 0x0000
- Crop rectangle. Defines the cropped area.
- Yes
- Yes
* - ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_DEFAULT``
- 0x0001
- Suggested cropping rectangle that covers the "whole picture".
This includes only active pixels and excludes other non-active
pixels such as black pixels.
- Yes
- Yes
* - ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_BOUNDS``
- 0x0002
- Bounds of the crop rectangle. All valid crop rectangles fit inside
the crop bounds rectangle.
- Yes
- Yes
* - ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_NATIVE_SIZE``
- 0x0003
- The native size of the device, e.g. a sensor's pixel array.
``left`` and ``top`` fields are zero for this target.
- Yes
- Yes
* - ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE``
- 0x0100
- Compose rectangle. Used to configure scaling and composition.
- Yes
- Yes
* - ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_DEFAULT``
- 0x0101
- Suggested composition rectangle that covers the "whole picture".
- Yes
- No
* - ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_BOUNDS``
- 0x0102
- Bounds of the compose rectangle. All valid compose rectangles fit
inside the compose bounds rectangle.
Annotation

- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
