+
+    <para>Applications can optionally call the
+<constant>VIDIOC_PREPARE_BUF</constant> ioctl to pass ownership of the buffer
+to the driver before actually enqueuing it, using the
+<constant>VIDIOC_QBUF</constant> ioctl, and to prepare it for future I/O.
+Such preparations may include cache invalidation or cleaning. Performing them
+in advance saves time during the actual I/O. In case such cache operations are
+not required, the application can use one of
+<constant>V4L2_BUF_FLAG_NO_CACHE_INVALIDATE</constant> and
+<constant>V4L2_BUF_FLAG_NO_CACHE_CLEAN</constant> flags to skip the respective
+step.</para>
+

+specified in <xref linkend="buffer" />.</para>
