+VIDIOC_G_CTRL - VIDIOC_S_CTRL - Get or set the value of a control

+Synopsis

+
+``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_G_CTRL, struct v4l2_control *argp)``
+
+.. c:macro:: VIDIOC_S_CTRL
+
+``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_S_CTRL, struct v4l2_control *argp)``
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+    File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open()`.
+
+``argp``
+    Pointer to struct :c:type:`v4l2_control`.
+
+Description
+===========
+
+To get the current value of a control applications initialize the ``id``
+field of a struct :c:type:`v4l2_control` and call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_CTRL <VIDIOC_G_CTRL>` ioctl with a pointer to this structure. To change the
+value of a control applications initialize the ``id`` and ``value``
+fields of a struct :c:type:`v4l2_control` and call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_CTRL <VIDIOC_G_CTRL>` ioctl.
+
+When the ``id`` is invalid drivers return an ``EINVAL`` error code. When the
+``value`` is out of bounds drivers can choose to take the closest valid
+value or return an ``ERANGE`` error code, whatever seems more appropriate.
+However, :ref:`VIDIOC_S_CTRL <VIDIOC_G_CTRL>` is a write-only ioctl, it does not return the
+actual new value. If the ``value`` is inappropriate for the control
+(e.g. if it refers to an unsupported menu index of a menu control), then
+EINVAL error code is returned as well.
+
+These ioctls work only with user controls. For other control classes the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS <VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS <VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS>` or
+:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS <VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS>` must be used.

+
+    * - __u32
+      - ``id``
+      - Identifies the control, set by the application.
+    * - __s32
+      - ``value``
+      - New value or current value.
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
+
+EINVAL
+    The struct :c:type:`v4l2_control` ``id`` is invalid
+    or the ``value`` is inappropriate for the given control (i.e. if a
+    menu item is selected that is not supported by the driver according
+    to :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYMENU <VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL>`).
+
+ERANGE
+    The struct :c:type:`v4l2_control` ``value`` is out of
+    bounds.
+
+EBUSY
+    The control is temporarily not changeable, possibly because another
+    applications took over control of the device function this control
+    belongs to.
+
+EACCES
+    Attempt to set a read-only control or to get a write-only control.
+
+    Or if there is an attempt to set an inactive control and the driver is
+    not capable of caching the new value until the control is active again.
