 Accessing Control Values
 ========================
 
-The v4l2_ctrl struct contains these two unions:
+The following union is used inside the control framework to access control
+values:
 
-	/* The current control value. */
-	union {
+union v4l2_ctrl_ptr {
+	s32 *p_s32;
+	s64 *p_s64;
+	char *p_char;
+	void *p;
+};
+
+The v4l2_ctrl struct contains these fields that can be used to access both
+current and new values:
+
+	s32 val;
+	struct {
 		s32 val;
-		s64 val64;
-		char *string;
 	} cur;
 
-	/* The new control value. */
-	union {
-		s32 val;
-		s64 val64;
-		char *string;
-	};
 
-Within the control ops you can freely use these. The val and val64 speak for
-themselves. The string pointers point to character buffers of length
+	union v4l2_ctrl_ptr p_new;
+	union v4l2_ctrl_ptr p_cur;
+
+If the control has a simple s32 type type, then:
+
+	&ctrl->val == ctrl->p_new.p_s32
+	&ctrl->cur.val == ctrl->p_cur.p_s32
+
+For all other types use ctrl->p_cur.p<something>. Basically the val
+and cur.val fields can be considered an alias since these are used so often.
+
+Within the control ops you can freely use these. The val and cur.val speak for
+themselves. The p_char pointers point to character buffers of length
 ctrl->maximum + 1, and are always 0-terminated.
 
-In most cases 'cur' contains the current cached control value. When you create
-a new control this value is made identical to the default value. After calling
-v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup() this value is passed to the hardware. It is generally
-a good idea to call this function.
+Unless the control is marked volatile the p_cur field points to the the
+current cached control value. When you create a new control this value is made
+identical to the default value. After calling v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup() this
+value is passed to the hardware. It is generally a good idea to call this
+function.
 
 Whenever a new value is set that new value is automatically cached. This means
 that most drivers do not need to implement the g_volatile_ctrl() op. The
