<title>Description</title>
<para>To query the attributes of a control applications set the
<structfield>id</structfield> field of a &v4l2-queryctrl; and call the
<constant>VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL</constant> ioctl with a pointer to this
structure. The driver fills the rest of the structure or returns an
&EINVAL; when the <structfield>id</structfield> is invalid.</para>
<para>It is possible to enumerate controls by calling
<constant>VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL</constant> with successive
<structfield>id</structfield> values starting from
<constant>V4L2_CID_BASE</constant> up to and exclusive
<constant>V4L2_CID_LASTP1</constant>. Drivers may return
<errorcode>EINVAL</errorcode> if a control in this range is not
supported. Further applications can enumerate private controls, which
are not defined in this specification, by starting at
<constant>V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE</constant> and incrementing
<structfield>id</structfield> until the driver returns
<errorcode>EINVAL</errorcode>.</para>
<para>In both cases, when the driver sets the
<constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_DISABLED</constant> flag in the
<structfield>flags</structfield> field this control is permanently
disabled and should be ignored by the application.<footnote>
<para><constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_DISABLED</constant> was
intended for two purposes: Drivers can skip predefined controls not
supported by the hardware (although returning EINVAL would do as
well), or disable predefined and private controls after hardware
detection without the trouble of reordering control arrays and indices
(EINVAL cannot be used to skip private controls because it would
prematurely end the enumeration).</para></footnote></para>
<para>When the application ORs <structfield>id</structfield> with
<constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL</constant> the driver returns the
next supported non-compound control, or <errorcode>EINVAL</errorcode>
if there is none. In addition, the <constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_COMPOUND</constant>
flag can be specified to enumerate all compound controls (i.e. controls
with type ≥ <constant>V4L2_CTRL_COMPOUND_TYPES</constant>). Specify both
<constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL</constant> and
<constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_COMPOUND</constant> in order to enumerate
all controls, compound or not. Drivers which do not support these flags yet
always return <errorcode>EINVAL</errorcode>.</para>
<para>The <constant>VIDIOC_QUERY_EXT_CTRL</constant> ioctl was
introduced in order to better support controls that can use compound
types, and to expose additional control information that cannot be
returned in &v4l2-queryctrl; since that structure is full.</para>
<para><constant>VIDIOC_QUERY_EXT_CTRL</constant> is used in the
same way as <constant>VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL</constant>, except that the
<structfield>reserved</structfield> array must be zeroed as well.</para>
<para>Additional information is required for menu controls: the
names of the menu items. To query them applications set the
<structfield>id</structfield> and <structfield>index</structfield>
fields of &v4l2-querymenu; and call the
<constant>VIDIOC_QUERYMENU</constant> ioctl with a pointer to this
structure. The driver fills the rest of the structure or returns an
&EINVAL; when the <structfield>id</structfield> or
<structfield>index</structfield> is invalid. Menu items are enumerated
by calling <constant>VIDIOC_QUERYMENU</constant> with successive
<structfield>index</structfield> values from &v4l2-queryctrl;
<structfield>minimum</structfield> to
<structfield>maximum</structfield>, inclusive. Note that it is possible
for <constant>VIDIOC_QUERYMENU</constant> to return an &EINVAL; for some
indices between <structfield>minimum</structfield> and <structfield>maximum</structfield>.
In that case that particular menu item is not supported by this driver. Also note that
the <structfield>minimum</structfield> value is not necessarily 0.</para>
