| 2 | <title>User Controls</title> |
| 3 | |
| 4 | <para>Devices typically have a number of user-settable controls |
| 5 | such as brightness, saturation and so on, which would be presented to |
| 6 | the user on a graphical user interface. But, different devices |
| 7 | will have different controls available, and furthermore, the range of |
| 8 | possible values, and the default value will vary from device to |
| 9 | device. The control ioctls provide the information and a mechanism to |
| 10 | create a nice user interface for these controls that will work |
| 11 | correctly with any device.</para> |
| 12 | |
| 13 | <para>All controls are accessed using an ID value. V4L2 defines |
| 14 | several IDs for specific purposes. Drivers can also implement their |
| 15 | own custom controls using <constant>V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE</constant> |
| 16 | and higher values. The pre-defined control IDs have the prefix |
| 17 | <constant>V4L2_CID_</constant>, and are listed in <xref |
| 18 | linkend="control-id" />. The ID is used when querying the attributes of |
| 19 | a control, and when getting or setting the current value.</para> |
| 20 | |
| 21 | <para>Generally applications should present controls to the user |
| 22 | without assumptions about their purpose. Each control comes with a |
| 23 | name string the user is supposed to understand. When the purpose is |
| 24 | non-intuitive the driver writer should provide a user manual, a user |
| 25 | interface plug-in or a driver specific panel application. Predefined |
| 26 | IDs were introduced to change a few controls programmatically, for |
| 27 | example to mute a device during a channel switch.</para> |
| 28 | |
| 29 | <para>Drivers may enumerate different controls after switching |
| 30 | the current video input or output, tuner or modulator, or audio input |
| 31 | or output. Different in the sense of other bounds, another default and |
| 32 | current value, step size or other menu items. A control with a certain |
| 33 | <emphasis>custom</emphasis> ID can also change name and |
| 34 | type.<footnote> |
| 35 | <para>It will be more convenient for applications if drivers |
| 36 | make use of the <constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_DISABLED</constant> flag, but |
| 37 | that was never required.</para> |
| 38 | </footnote> Control values are stored globally, they do not |
| 39 | change when switching except to stay within the reported bounds. They |
| 40 | also do not change ⪚ when the device is opened or closed, when the |
| 41 | tuner radio frequency is changed or generally never without |
| 42 | application request. Since V4L2 specifies no event mechanism, panel |
| 43 | applications intended to cooperate with other panel applications (be |
| 44 | they built into a larger application, as a TV viewer) may need to |
| 45 | regularly poll control values to update their user |
| 46 | interface.<footnote> |
| 47 | <para>Applications could call an ioctl to request events. |
| 48 | After another process called &VIDIOC-S-CTRL; or another ioctl changing |
| 49 | shared properties the &func-select; function would indicate |
| 50 | readability until any ioctl (querying the properties) is |
| 51 | called.</para> |

| 459 | <title>Introduction</title> |
| 460 | |
| 461 | <para>The control mechanism as originally designed was meant |
| 462 | to be used for user settings (brightness, saturation, etc). However, |
| 463 | it turned out to be a very useful model for implementing more |
| 464 | complicated driver APIs where each driver implements only a subset of |
| 465 | a larger API.</para> |
| 466 | |
| 467 | <para>The MPEG encoding API was the driving force behind |
| 468 | designing and implementing this extended control mechanism: the MPEG |
| 469 | standard is quite large and the currently supported hardware MPEG |
| 470 | encoders each only implement a subset of this standard. Further more, |
| 471 | many parameters relating to how the video is encoded into an MPEG |
| 472 | stream are specific to the MPEG encoding chip since the MPEG standard |
| 473 | only defines the format of the resulting MPEG stream, not how the |
| 474 | video is actually encoded into that format.</para> |
| 475 | |
| 476 | <para>Unfortunately, the original control API lacked some |
| 477 | features needed for these new uses and so it was extended into the |
| 478 | (not terribly originally named) extended control API.</para> |
| 479 | |
| 480 | <para>Even though the MPEG encoding API was the first effort |
| 481 | to use the Extended Control API, nowadays there are also other classes |
| 482 | of Extended Controls, such as Camera Controls and FM Transmitter Controls. |
| 483 | The Extended Controls API as well as all Extended Controls classes are |
| 484 | described in the following text.</para> |
| 485 | </section> |
| 486 | |
| 487 | <section> |
| 488 | <title>The Extended Control API</title> |
| 489 | |
| 490 | <para>Three new ioctls are available: &VIDIOC-G-EXT-CTRLS;, |
| 491 | &VIDIOC-S-EXT-CTRLS; and &VIDIOC-TRY-EXT-CTRLS;. These ioctls act on |
| 492 | arrays of controls (as opposed to the &VIDIOC-G-CTRL; and |
| 493 | &VIDIOC-S-CTRL; ioctls that act on a single control). This is needed |
| 494 | since it is often required to atomically change several controls at |
| 495 | once.</para> |
| 496 | |
| 497 | <para>Each of the new ioctls expects a pointer to a |
| 498 | &v4l2-ext-controls;. This structure contains a pointer to the control |
| 499 | array, a count of the number of controls in that array and a control |
| 500 | class. Control classes are used to group similar controls into a |
| 501 | single class. For example, control class |
| 502 | <constant>V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_USER</constant> contains all user controls |
| 503 | (&ie; all controls that can also be set using the old |
| 504 | <constant>VIDIOC_S_CTRL</constant> ioctl). Control class |
| 505 | <constant>V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_MPEG</constant> contains all controls |
| 506 | relating to MPEG encoding, etc.</para> |
| 507 | |
| 508 | <para>All controls in the control array must belong to the |
| 509 | specified control class. An error is returned if this is not the |
| 510 | case.</para> |
| 511 | |
| 512 | <para>It is also possible to use an empty control array (count |
| 513 | == 0) to check whether the specified control class is |
| 514 | supported.</para> |
| 515 | |
| 516 | <para>The control array is a &v4l2-ext-control; array. The |
| 517 | <structname>v4l2_ext_control</structname> structure is very similar to |
| 518 | &v4l2-control;, except for the fact that it also allows for 64-bit |
| 519 | values and pointers to be passed.</para> |
| 520 | |
| 521 | <para>It is important to realize that due to the flexibility of |
| 522 | controls it is necessary to check whether the control you want to set |
| 523 | actually is supported in the driver and what the valid range of values |
| 524 | is. So use the &VIDIOC-QUERYCTRL; and &VIDIOC-QUERYMENU; ioctls to |
| 525 | check this. Also note that it is possible that some of the menu |
| 526 | indices in a control of type <constant>V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_MENU</constant> |
| 527 | may not be supported (<constant>VIDIOC_QUERYMENU</constant> will |
| 528 | return an error). A good example is the list of supported MPEG audio |
| 529 | bitrates. Some drivers only support one or two bitrates, others |
| 530 | support a wider range.</para> |

| 533 | <section> |
| 534 | <title>Enumerating Extended Controls</title> |
| 535 | |
| 536 | <para>The recommended way to enumerate over the extended |
| 537 | controls is by using &VIDIOC-QUERYCTRL; in combination with the |
| 538 | <constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL</constant> flag:</para> |
| 539 | |
| 540 | <informalexample> |
| 541 | <programlisting> |
| 542 | &v4l2-queryctrl; qctrl; |
| 543 | |
| 544 | qctrl.id = V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL; |
| 545 | while (0 == ioctl (fd, &VIDIOC-QUERYCTRL;, &qctrl)) { |
| 546 | /* ... */ |
| 547 | qctrl.id |= V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL; |
| 548 | } |
| 549 | </programlisting> |
| 550 | </informalexample> |
| 551 | |
| 552 | <para>The initial control ID is set to 0 ORed with the |
| 553 | <constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL</constant> flag. The |
| 554 | <constant>VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL</constant> ioctl will return the first |
| 555 | control with a higher ID than the specified one. When no such controls |
| 556 | are found an error is returned.</para> |
| 557 | |
| 558 | <para>If you want to get all controls within a specific control |
| 559 | class, then you can set the initial |
| 560 | <structfield>qctrl.id</structfield> value to the control class and add |
| 561 | an extra check to break out of the loop when a control of another |
| 562 | control class is found:</para> |
| 563 | |
| 564 | <informalexample> |
| 565 | <programlisting> |
| 566 | qctrl.id = V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_MPEG | V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL; |
| 567 | while (0 == ioctl (fd, &VIDIOC-QUERYCTRL;, &qctrl)) { |
| 568 | if (V4L2_CTRL_ID2CLASS (qctrl.id) != V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_MPEG) |
| 569 | break; |
| 570 | /* ... */ |
| 571 | qctrl.id |= V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL; |
| 572 | } |
| 573 | </programlisting> |
| 574 | </informalexample> |
| 575 | |
| 576 | <para>The 32-bit <structfield>qctrl.id</structfield> value is |
| 577 | subdivided into three bit ranges: the top 4 bits are reserved for |
| 578 | flags (⪚ <constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL</constant>) and are not |
| 579 | actually part of the ID. The remaining 28 bits form the control ID, of |
| 580 | which the most significant 12 bits define the control class and the |
| 581 | least significant 16 bits identify the control within the control |
| 582 | class. It is guaranteed that these last 16 bits are always non-zero |
| 583 | for controls. The range of 0x1000 and up are reserved for |
| 584 | driver-specific controls. The macro |
| 585 | <constant>V4L2_CTRL_ID2CLASS(id)</constant> returns the control class |
| 586 | ID based on a control ID.</para> |
| 587 | |
| 588 | <para>If the driver does not support extended controls, then |
| 589 | <constant>VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL</constant> will fail when used in |
| 590 | combination with <constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL</constant>. In |
| 591 | that case the old method of enumerating control should be used (see |
| 592 | 1.8). But if it is supported, then it is guaranteed to enumerate over |
| 593 | all controls, including driver-private controls.</para> |

| 596 | <section> |
| 597 | <title>Creating Control Panels</title> |
| 598 | |
| 599 | <para>It is possible to create control panels for a graphical |
| 600 | user interface where the user can select the various controls. |
| 601 | Basically you will have to iterate over all controls using the method |
| 602 | described above. Each control class starts with a control of type |
| 603 | <constant>V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_CTRL_CLASS</constant>. |
| 604 | <constant>VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL</constant> will return the name of this |
| 605 | control class which can be used as the title of a tab page within a |
| 606 | control panel.</para> |
| 607 | |
| 608 | <para>The flags field of &v4l2-queryctrl; also contains hints on |
| 609 | the behavior of the control. See the &VIDIOC-QUERYCTRL; documentation |
| 610 | for more details.</para> |
