To meaningfully test this, don't we need the vivid driver to change the
dimension ? Or is it meant to only test changes made by the application
?

dims[0] is the maximum number of elements allowed, it is not the actual
size of the control. The application sets the control to a size between
1 and dims[0] (100 in this case) elements.

When the control is created it will have just 1 element containing the
default control value.

	Hans

There is actually one thing that I would like to improve: allow dynamic arrays
to be empty (0 elements). Such a control should probably be empty in the
beginning as well.

I'll take a stab at this.

Hi Laurent, Xavier,

Ignore what I wrote before, I read it with the HEVC patch series in mind, not the dw100
series.

So let me try again :-)

As I understand it the dw100 driver needs a 2 dimensional array control.
The size is fixed for each resolution, but if the resolution changes, then
this control changes size as well, and it makes sense that when that happens
it is also reset to default values.

So this isn't a dynamic array at all. It is a standard 2 dimensional array.

What is missing in the control framework is a function similar to
v4l2_ctrl_modify_range() that can resize an array.

v4l2_ctrl_modify_dimensions() would be a good name.

I can make something for that if you both agree with this proposal.

Regards,

	Hans

From a userspace point of view, we only need to be able to set the
control after setting the format. There's no need for control change
events (but I don't mind if they're there of course, even if I think
they won't be very usable in practice).

From an API point of view, I'd like a clear and documented behaviour for
what happens to the control value when the format is changed. It can be
a global behaviour, or a control-specific behaviour, I don't mind much.

I'd say it is control specific. In this case you would reset the contents
to default values (presumably values that don't do any warping in this
case).

Works for me. Let's then note in the core API that any control whose
dimensions can change need to document how its value is affected.

Considering the semantic of the array control, indeed, this is 2 
dimensional array control. Nevertheless, the driver does not need to 
access individual array items, as the hardware is the only consumer.
Hence, the driver rather considers the array control as a binary blob 
with varying size.
 From this perspective, the dynamic array control was a good candidate.
