	    <entry>When this event is subscribed an initial event will be sent

	    <entry><para>If set, then events directly caused by an ioctl will also be sent to
		the filehandle that called that ioctl. For example, changing a control using
		&VIDIOC-S-CTRL; will cause a V4L2_EVENT_CTRL to be sent back to that same
		filehandle. Normally such events are suppressed to prevent feedback loops
		where an application changes a control to a one value and then another, and
		then receives an event telling it that that control has changed to the first
		value.</para>

		<para>Since it can't tell whether that event was caused by another application
		or by the &VIDIOC-S-CTRL; call it is hard to decide whether to set the
		control to the value in the event, or ignore it.</para>

		<para>Think carefully when you set this flag so you won't get into situations
		like that.</para>
