You set this mask either through the v4l2_ctrl_config struct for a custom
control, or by calling v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu().

+There are situations where menu items may be device specific. In such cases the
+framework provides a helper function to change the menu:
+
+void v4l2_ctrl_modify_menu(struct v4l2_ctrl *ctrl, const char * const *qmenu,
+ s32 max, u32 menu_skip_mask, s32 def);
+
+A good example is the test pattern control for capture/display/sensors devices
+that have the capability to generate test patterns. These test patterns are
+hardware specific, so the contents of the menu will vary from device to device.
+
+This helper function is used to modify the menu, max, mask and the default
+value of the control.
+
+Example:
+
+ static const char * const test_pattern[] = {
+ "Disabled",
+ "Vertical Bars",
+ "Solid Black",
+ "Solid White",
+ NULL,
+ };
+ struct v4l2_ctrl *test_pattern_ctrl =
+ v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu(&foo->ctrl_handler, &foo_ctrl_ops,
+ V4L2_CID_TEST_PATTERN, V4L2_TEST_PATTERN_DISABLED, 0,
+ V4L2_TEST_PATTERN_DISABLED);
+
+ v4l2_ctrl_modify_menu(test_pattern_ctrl, test_pattern, 3, 0,
+ V4L2_TEST_PATTERN_DISABLED);
