+ <title>User Controls</title>
+
+ <para>Devices typically have a number of user-settable controls
+such as brightness, saturation and so on, which would be presented to
+the user on a graphical user interface. But, different devices
+will have different controls available, and furthermore, the range of
+possible values, and the default value will vary from device to
+device. The control ioctls provide the information and a mechanism to
+create a nice user interface for these controls that will work
+correctly with any device.</para>
+
+ <para>All controls are accessed using an ID value. V4L2 defines
+several IDs for specific purposes. Drivers can also implement their
+own custom controls using <constant>V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE</constant>
+and higher values. The pre-defined control IDs have the prefix
+<constant>V4L2_CID_</constant>, and are listed in <xref
+linkend="control-id" />. The ID is used when querying the attributes of
+a control, and when getting or setting the current value.</para>
+
+ <para>Generally applications should present controls to the user
+without assumptions about their purpose. Each control comes with a
+name string the user is supposed to understand. When the purpose is
+non-intuitive the driver writer should provide a user manual, a user
+interface plug-in or a driver specific panel application. Predefined
+IDs were introduced to change a few controls programmatically, for
+example to mute a device during a channel switch.</para>
+
+ <para>Drivers may enumerate different controls after switching
+the current video input or output, tuner or modulator, or audio input
+or output. Different in the sense of other bounds, another default and
+current value, step size or other menu items. A control with a certain
+<emphasis>custom</emphasis> ID can also change name and
+type.<footnote>
+ <para>It will be more convenient for applications if drivers
+make use of the <constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_DISABLED</constant> flag, but
+that was never required.</para>
+ </footnote> Control values are stored globally, they do not
+change when switching except to stay within the reported bounds. They
+also do not change &eg; when the device is opened or closed, when the
+tuner radio frequency is changed or generally never without
+application request. Since V4L2 specifies no event mechanism, panel
+applications intended to cooperate with other panel applications (be
+they built into a larger application, as a TV viewer) may need to
+regularly poll control values to update their user
+interface.<footnote>
+ <para>Applications could call an ioctl to request events.
+After another process called &VIDIOC-S-CTRL; or another ioctl changing
+shared properties the &func-select; function would indicate
+readability until any ioctl (querying the properties) is
+called.</para>

+ <section>
+ <title>Introduction</title>
+
+ <para>The control mechanism as originally designed was meant
+to be used for user settings (brightness, saturation, etc). However,
+it turned out to be a very useful model for implementing more
+complicated driver APIs where each driver implements only a subset of
+a larger API.</para>
+
+ <para>The MPEG encoding API was the driving force behind
+designing and implementing this extended control mechanism: the MPEG
+standard is quite large and the currently supported hardware MPEG
+encoders each only implement a subset of this standard. Further more,
+many parameters relating to how the video is encoded into an MPEG
+stream are specific to the MPEG encoding chip since the MPEG standard
+only defines the format of the resulting MPEG stream, not how the
+video is actually encoded into that format.</para>
+
+ <para>Unfortunately, the original control API lacked some
+features needed for these new uses and so it was extended into the
+(not terribly originally named) extended control API.</para>
+
+ <para>Even though the MPEG encoding API was the first effort
+to use the Extended Control API, nowadays there are also other classes
+of Extended Controls, such as Camera Controls and FM Transmitter Controls.
+The Extended Controls API as well as all Extended Controls classes are
+described in the following text.</para>
+ </section>
+
+ <section>
+ <title>The Extended Control API</title>
+
+ <para>Three new ioctls are available: &VIDIOC-G-EXT-CTRLS;,
+&VIDIOC-S-EXT-CTRLS; and &VIDIOC-TRY-EXT-CTRLS;. These ioctls act on
+arrays of controls (as opposed to the &VIDIOC-G-CTRL; and
+&VIDIOC-S-CTRL; ioctls that act on a single control). This is needed
+since it is often required to atomically change several controls at
+once.</para>
+
+ <para>Each of the new ioctls expects a pointer to a
+&v4l2-ext-controls;. This structure contains a pointer to the control
+array, a count of the number of controls in that array and a control
+class. Control classes are used to group similar controls into a
+single class. For example, control class
+<constant>V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_USER</constant> contains all user controls
+(&ie; all controls that can also be set using the old
+<constant>VIDIOC_S_CTRL</constant> ioctl). Control class
+<constant>V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_MPEG</constant> contains all controls
+relating to MPEG encoding, etc.</para>
+
+ <para>All controls in the control array must belong to the
+specified control class. An error is returned if this is not the
+case.</para>
+
+ <para>It is also possible to use an empty control array (count
+== 0) to check whether the specified control class is
+supported.</para>
+
+ <para>The control array is a &v4l2-ext-control; array. The
+<structname>v4l2_ext_control</structname> structure is very similar to
+&v4l2-control;, except for the fact that it also allows for 64-bit
+values and pointers to be passed.</para>
+
+ <para>It is important to realize that due to the flexibility of
+controls it is necessary to check whether the control you want to set
+actually is supported in the driver and what the valid range of values
+is. So use the &VIDIOC-QUERYCTRL; and &VIDIOC-QUERYMENU; ioctls to
+check this. Also note that it is possible that some of the menu
+indices in a control of type <constant>V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_MENU</constant>
+may not be supported (<constant>VIDIOC_QUERYMENU</constant> will
+return an error). A good example is the list of supported MPEG audio
+bitrates. Some drivers only support one or two bitrates, others
+support a wider range.</para>
+ </section>
+
+ <section>
+ <title>Enumerating Extended Controls</title>
+
+ <para>The recommended way to enumerate over the extended
+controls is by using &VIDIOC-QUERYCTRL; in combination with the
+<constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL</constant> flag:</para>
+
+ <informalexample>
+ <programlisting>
+&v4l2-queryctrl; qctrl;
+
+qctrl.id = V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL;
+while (0 == ioctl (fd, &VIDIOC-QUERYCTRL;, &amp;qctrl)) {
+ /* ... */
+ qctrl.id |= V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL;
+}
+</programlisting>
+ </informalexample>
+
+ <para>The initial control ID is set to 0 ORed with the
+<constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL</constant> flag. The
+<constant>VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL</constant> ioctl will return the first
+control with a higher ID than the specified one. When no such controls
+are found an error is returned.</para>
+
+ <para>If you want to get all controls within a specific control
+class, then you can set the initial
+<structfield>qctrl.id</structfield> value to the control class and add
+an extra check to break out of the loop when a control of another
+control class is found:</para>
+
+ <informalexample>
+ <programlisting>
+qctrl.id = V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_MPEG | V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL;
+while (0 == ioctl (fd, &VIDIOC-QUERYCTRL;, &amp;qctrl)) {
+ if (V4L2_CTRL_ID2CLASS (qctrl.id) != V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_MPEG)
+ break;
+ /* ... */
+ qctrl.id |= V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL;
+ }
+</programlisting>
+ </informalexample>
+
+ <para>The 32-bit <structfield>qctrl.id</structfield> value is
+subdivided into three bit ranges: the top 4 bits are reserved for
+flags (&eg; <constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL</constant>) and are not
+actually part of the ID. The remaining 28 bits form the control ID, of
+which the most significant 12 bits define the control class and the
+least significant 16 bits identify the control within the control
+class. It is guaranteed that these last 16 bits are always non-zero
+for controls. The range of 0x1000 and up are reserved for
+driver-specific controls. The macro
+<constant>V4L2_CTRL_ID2CLASS(id)</constant> returns the control class
+ID based on a control ID.</para>
+
+ <para>If the driver does not support extended controls, then
+<constant>VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL</constant> will fail when used in
+combination with <constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL</constant>. In
+that case the old method of enumerating control should be used (see
+1.8). But if it is supported, then it is guaranteed to enumerate over
+all controls, including driver-private controls.</para>
+ </section>
+
+ <section>
+ <title>Creating Control Panels</title>
+
+ <para>It is possible to create control panels for a graphical
+user interface where the user can select the various controls.
+Basically you will have to iterate over all controls using the method
+described above. Each control class starts with a control of type
+<constant>V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_CTRL_CLASS</constant>.
+<constant>VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL</constant> will return the name of this
+control class which can be used as the title of a tab page within a
+control panel.</para>
+
+ <para>The flags field of &v4l2-queryctrl; also contains hints on
+the behavior of the control. See the &VIDIOC-QUERYCTRL; documentation
+for more details.</para>
