+/**
+ * \file ipa_controls.h
+ * \brief Type definitions for serialized controls
+ *
+ * This file defines binary formats to store ControlList and ControlInfoMap
+ * instances in contiguous, self-contained memory areas called control packets.
+ * It describes the layout of the packets through a set of C structures. These
+ * formats shall be used when serializing ControlList and ControlInfoMap to
+ * transfer them through the IPA C interface and IPA IPC transports.
+ *
+ * A control packet contains a list of entries, each of them describing a single
+ * control range or control value. The packet starts with a fixed-size header
+ * described by the ipa_controls_header structure, followed by an array of
+ * fixed-size entries. Each entry is associated with data, stored either
+ * directly in the entry, or in a data section after the entries array.
+ *
+ * The following diagram describes the layout of the ControlList packet.
+ *
+ * ~~~~
+ * +-------------------------+ . .
+ * Header / | ipa_controls_header | | |
+ * | | | | |

+ * section | | value data for entry #n | <-----´ |

+ *
+ * The packet header contains the size of the packet, the number of entries, and
+ * the offset from the beginning of the packet to the data section. The packet
+ * entries array immediately follows the header. The data section starts at the
+ * offset ipa_controls_header::data_offset from the beginning of the packet, and
+ * shall be aligned to a multiple of 8 bytes.
+ *
+ * Entries are described by the ipa_control_value_entry structure. They contain
+ * the numerical ID of the control, its type, and the number of control values.
+ *
+ * The control values are stored in the data section in the platform's native
+ * format. The ipa_control_value_entry::offset field stores the offset from the
+ * beginning of the data section to the values.
+ *
+ * All control values in the data section shall be stored in the same order as
+ * the respective control entries, shall be aligned to a multiple of 8 bytes,
+ * and shall be contiguous in memory.
+ *
+ * Empty spaces may be present between the end of the entries array and the
+ * data section, and after the data section. They shall be ignored when parsing
+ * the packet.
+ *
+ * The following diagram describes the layout of the ControlInfoMap packet.
+ *
+ * ~~~~
+ * +-------------------------+ . .
+ * Header / | ipa_controls_header | | |

+ * The packet header is identical to the ControlList packet header.
+ *
+ * Entries are described by the ipa_control_range_entry structure. They contain
+ * the numerical ID and type of the control. The control range data is stored
+ * in the data section as described by the ipa_control_range_data structure.
+ * The ipa_control_range_entry::offset field stores the offset from the
+ * beginning of the data section to the range data.
+ *
+ * Range data in the data section shall be stored in the same order as the
+ * entries array, shall be aligned to a multiple of 8 bytes, and shall be
+ * contiguous in memory.
+ *
+ * As for the ControlList packet, empty spaces may be present between the end of
+ * the entries array and the data section, and after the data section. They
+ * shall be ignored when parsing the packet.
