4.3-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Antonio Ospite <ao2@xxxxxx> commit 759b26a1d916400a1a20948eb964dea6ad0bd9e9 upstream. Since commit 5d0360a4f027576e5419d4a7c711c9ca0f1be8ca it's not possible anymore to set auto clusters from auto to manual using VIDIOC_S_CTRL. For example, setting autogain to manual with gspca/ov534 driver and this sequence of commands does not work: v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl=gain_automatic=1 v4l2-ctl --list-ctrls | grep gain_automatic # The following does not work v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl=gain_automatic=0 v4l2-ctl --list-ctrls | grep gain_automatic Changing the value using VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS (like qv4l2 does) works fine. The apparent cause by looking at the changes in 5d0360a and comparing with the code path for VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS seems to be that the code in v4l2-ctrls.c::set_ctrl() is not calling user_to_new() anymore after calling update_from_auto_cluster(master). However the root cause of the problem is that calling update_from_auto_cluster(master) overrides also the _master_ control state calling cur_to_new() while it was supposed to only update the volatile controls. Calling user_to_new() after update_from_auto_cluster(master) was just masking the original bug by restoring the correct new value of the master control before making the changes permanent. Fix the original bug by making update_from_auto_cluster() not override the new master control value.
