+ * \file v4l2_controls.h
+ * \brief Support for V4L2 Controls using the V4L2 Extended Controls APIs
+ *
+ * The V4L2 Control API allows application to inspect and modify sets of
+ * configurable parameters on a video device or subdevice. The nature of the
+ * parameters an application can modify using the control framework depends on
+ * what the driver implements support for, and on the characteristics of the
+ * underlying hardware platform. Generally controls are used to modify user
+ * visible settings, such as the image brightness and exposure time, or
+ * non-standard parameters which cannot be controlled through the V4L2 format
+ * negotiation API.
+ *
+ * Controls are identified by a numerical ID, defined by the V4L2 kernel headers
+ * and have an associated type. Each control has a value, which is the data that
+ * can be modified with V4L2Device::setControls() or retrieved with
+ * V4L2Device::getControls().
+ *
+ * The control's type along with the control's flags define the type of the
+ * control's value content. Controls can transport a single data value stored in
+ * variable inside the control, or they might as well deal with more complex
+ * data types, such as arrays of matrices, stored in a contiguous memory
+ * locations associated with the control and called 'the payload'. Such controls
+ * are called 'compound controls' and are currently not supported by the
+ * libcamera V4L2 control framework.
+ *
+ * libcamera implements support for controls using the V4L2 Extended Control
+ * API, which allows future handling of controls with payloads of arbitrary
+ * sizes.
+ *
+ * The libcamera V4L2 Controls framework operates on lists of controls, wrapped
+ * by the V4L2ControlList class, to match the V4L2 extended controls API. The
+ * interface to set and get control is implemented by the V4L2Device class, and
+ * this file only provides the data type definitions.
+ *
+ * \todo Add support for compound controls

+ * To read controls from a device, the desired controls are added with
