37 * that returns the current signal strength which changes
38 * continuously.
39 * If not set, then the currently cached value will be returned.

41 * the usual min/max/step checks are not sufficient.
42 * @s_ctrl: Actually set the new control value. s_ctrl is compulsory. The
43 * ctrl->handler->lock is held when these ops are called, so no

55 * @cluster: Point to start of cluster array.
56 * @ncontrols: Number of controls in cluster array.
57 * @done: Internal flag: set for each processed control.
58 * @is_new: Set when the user specified a new value for this control. It
59 * is also set when called from v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup. Drivers
60 * should never set this flag.
61 * @is_private: If set, then this control is private to its handler and it
62 * will not be added to any other handlers. Drivers can set
63 * this flag.
64 * @is_volatile: If set, then this control is volatile. This means that the
65 * control's current value cannot be cached and needs to be
66 * retrieved through the g_volatile_ctrl op. Drivers can set
67 * this flag.

74 * @default_value: The control's default value.

76 * @menu_skip_mask: The control's skip mask for menu controls. This makes it
77 * easy to skip menu items that are not valid. If bit X is set,
78 * then menu item X is skipped. Of course, this only works for
79 * menus with <= 32 menu items. There are no menus that come
80 * close to that number, so this is OK. Should we ever need more,
81 * then this will have to be extended to a u64 or a bit array.
82 * @qmenu: A const char * array for all menu items. Array entries that are
83 * empty strings ("") correspond to non-existing menu items (this
84 * is in addition to the menu_skip_mask above). The last entry
85 * must be NULL.
86 * @flags: The control's flags.
87 * @cur: The control's current value.
88 * @val: The control's new s32 value.
89 * @val64: The control's new s64 value.
90 * @string: The control's new string value.
91 * @priv: The control's private pointer. For use by the driver. It is
92 * untouched by the control framework. Note that this pointer is
93 * not freed when the control is deleted. Should this be needed
94 * then a new internal bitfield can be added to tell the framework
95 * to free this pointer.
