2016-02-10[media] v4l2-ctrls: remove unclaimed v4l2_ctrl_add_ctrl() interfaceVladimir Zapolskiy1-1/+0
v4l2_ctrl_add_ctrl() interface has no users since its introduction in commit 0996517cf8ea ("V4L/DVB: v4l2: Add new control handling framework") and its functionality is covered by v4l2_ctrl_new() and derivative interfaces, so it is safe to remove the interface from the kernel.

2014-07-17[media] v4l2-ctrls: use ptrs for all but the s32 typeHans Verkuil1-1/+1
Rather than having two unions for all types just keep 'val' and 'cur.val' and use the p_cur and p_new unions to access all others. The only reason for keeping 'val' and 'cur.val' is that it is used all over, so converting this as well would be a huge job.

2013-01-05[media] v4l2-ctrls: add a notify callbackHans Verkuil1-8/+14
Sometimes platform/bridge drivers need to be notified when a control from a sub-device changes value. In order to support this a notify callback was added.

2012-10-02[media] v4l2-ctrls: add a filter function to v4l2_ctrl_add_handlerHans Verkuil1-1/+5
With a filter function you can control more precisely which controls are added. This is useful in particular for radio device nodes for combined TV/Radio cards where you want to show just the radio-specific controls and not controls like brightness.

2012-05-14[media] V4L: Add helper function for standard integer menu controlsSylwester Nawrocki1-0/+21
This patch adds v4l2_ctrl_new_int_menu() helper function which can be used in drivers for creating standard integer menu control with driver-specific menu item list. It is similar to v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu(), except it doesn't have a mask parameter and an additional qmenu parameter allows passing an array of signed 64-bit integers as the menu item list.

2011-01-19[media] v4l2-ctrls: v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup must set is_new to 1Hans Verkuil1-0/+12
Renamed has_new to is_new. Drivers can use the is_new field to determine if a new value was specified for a control. The v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup() must always set this to 1 since the setup has to force a full update of all controls.
