2021-03-20Documentation: guides: pipeline-handler: Fix capture flag usageNícolas F. R. A. Prado
The number of frames passed to the -C flag of cam should come right after it, without a space, otherwise the value is discarded. The log below already showed the correct usage, but the command in the code-block was wrong, so fix it. Signed-off-by: Nícolas F. R. A.

2021-03-19Documentation: guides: pipeline-handler: Update code, commands and logsNícolas F. R. A. Prado
The pipeline-handler guide is a bit outdated: - ControlList* in start() is now const. - Registered pipeline handler log now comes from Camera log and the message is different.

2020-12-28libcamera: pipeline_handler: Remove Camera argument from request handlingNiklas Söderlund
There is no need to pass the Camera pointer to queueRequest(), completeBuffer() and completeRequest() as the Request also passed contains the same information. Remove the Camera argument to avoid situations where the information in the Request and the argument differ. There is no functional change and no public API change as the interface is only used between the Camera and PipelineHandler.

2020-12-08libcamera: pipeline: Pass libcamera controls into pipeline_handler::start()Naushir Patuck
Applications now have the ability to pass in controls that need to be applied on startup, rather than doing it through Request where there might be some frames of delay in getting the controls applied. This commit adds the ability to pass in a set of libcamera controls into the pipeline handlers through the pipeline_handler::start() method. These controls are provided by the application through the camera::start() public API.
