I don't like this struct print_format.
I would prefer something like this:
Rename print_qctrl to print_qctrl_readable() and create a new print_qctrl:
static void print_qctrl(int fd, struct v4l2_query_ext_ctrl *queryctrl,
struct v4l2_ext_control *ctrl, int show_menus)
{
if (options[OptListCtrlsValues])
print_qctrl_values(fd, queryctrl, ctrl, show_menus);
else
print_qctrl_readable(fd, queryctrl, ctrl, show_menus);
}
And in print_control you can just skip printing the class name if
options[OptListCtrlsValues] is set.
I would like to see string controls being supported. I would recommend
to just write the string as a hexdump. It avoids having to escape characters.
The same can be done for compound/array controls. In fact, you could write
all controls that way. It would simplify things a lot.
Also, when options[OptListCtrlsValues] is set you should skip all WRITE_ONLY
controls, all BUTTON controls, and all volatile controls. They are not
relevant if you are just interested in controls that can be set.
