<entry>When this event is subscribed an initial event will be sent

that are triggered by a status change such as <constant>V4L2_EVENT_CTRL</constant>.
Other events will ignore this flag.</entry>

<entry><para>If set, then events directly caused by an ioctl will also be sent to
the filehandle that called that ioctl. For example, changing a control using
&VIDIOC-S-CTRL; will cause a V4L2_EVENT_CTRL to be sent back to that same
filehandle. Normally such events are suppressed to prevent feedback loops
where an application changes a control to a one value and then another, and
then receives an event telling it that that control has changed to the first
value.</para>
<para>Since it can't tell whether that event was caused by another application
or by the &VIDIOC-S-CTRL; call it is hard to decide whether to set the
control to the value in the event, or ignore it.</para>
<para>Think carefully when you set this flag so you won't get into situations
like that.</para>
