2020-05-16libcamera: Move internal headers to include/libcamera/internal/Laurent Pinchart
The libcamera internal headers are located in src/libcamera/include/. The directory is added to the compiler headers search path with a meson include_directories() directive, and internal headers are included with (e.g. for the internal semaphore.h header) #include "semaphore.h" All was well, until libcxx decided to implement the C++20 synchronization library. The __threading_support header gained a #include <semaphore.h> to include the pthread's semaphore support. As include_directories() adds src/libcamera/include/ to the compiler search path with -I, the internal semaphore.h is included instead of the pthread version. Needless to say, the compiler isn't happy. Three options have been considered to fix this issue: - Use -iquote instead of -I. The -iquote option instructs gcc to only consider the header search path for headers included with the "" version. Meson unfortunately doesn't support this option. - Rename the internal semaphore.h header. This was deemed to be the beginning of a long whack-a-mole game, where namespace clashes with system libraries would appear over time (possibly dependent on particular system configurations) and would need to be constantly fixed. - Move the internal headers to another directory to create a unique namespace through path components. This causes lots of churn in all the existing source files through the all project. The first option would be best, but isn't available to us due to missing support in meson. Even if -iquote support was added, we would need to fix the problem before a new version of meson containing the required support would be released. The third option is thus the only practical solution available. Bite the bullet, and do it, moving headers to include/libcamera/internal/.

2020-03-18libcamera: PixelFormat: Mark all function arguments of type PixelFormat as ↵Niklas Söderlund
const reference PixelFormat was previously an alias for unsigned int but is now a class. Make all functions taking PixelFormat do so as a const reference. Signed-off-by: Niklas Söderlund <niklas.soderlund@ragnatech.se> Reviewed-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com>
2020-02-13v4l2: Remove internal threadLaurent Pinchart
Now that libcamera creates threads internally and doesn't rely on an application-provided event loop, remove the thread from the V4L2 compatibility layer. The split between the V4L2CameraProxy and V4L2Camera classes is still kept to separate the V4L2 adaptation from camera operation. This may be further refactored later.

2020-01-12libcamera: Switch to FrameBuffer interfaceNiklas Söderlund
Switch to the FrameBuffer interface where all buffers are treated as external buffers and are allocated outside the camera. Applications allocating buffers using libcamera are switched to use the FrameBufferAllocator helper. Follow-up changes to this one will finalize the transition to the new FrameBuffer interface by removing code that is left unused after this change.

2020-01-12libcamera: buffer: Move captured metadata to FrameMetadataNiklas Söderlund
Move the metadata retrieved when dequeuing a V4L2 buffer into a FrameMetadata object. This is done as a step to migrate to the FrameBuffer interface as the functions added to Buffer around FrameMetadata match the ones in FrameBuffer.

2020-01-12v4l2: camera: Handle memory mapping of buffers directlyNiklas Söderlund
In the upcoming FrameBuffer API the memory mapping of buffers will be left to the user of the FrameBuffer objects. Prepare the V4L2 compatibility layer to this upcoming change to ease conversion to the new API.

2020-01-12v4l2: Rename FrameMetadata to V4L2FrameMetadataNiklas Söderlund
With the upcoming FrameBuffer API a new library wide FrameMetadata object will be added which will replace the specific implementation in the V4L2 compatibility layer. Avoid name collisions while the new FrameBuffer API is added by renaming the V4L2 compatibility layer specific implementation until it can be replaced with the library wide implementation.

2020-01-03v4l2: v4l2_compat: Add V4L2 compatibility layerPaul Elder
Add libcamera V4L2 compatibility layer. This initial implementation supports the minimal set of V4L2 operations, which allows getting, setting, and enumerating formats, and streaming frames from a video device. Some data about the wrapped V4L2 video device are hardcoded. Add a build option named 'v4l2' and adjust the build system to selectively compile the V4L2 compatibility layer. For now we match the V4L2 device node to a libcamera camera based on a devnum that a pipeline handler may optionally map to a libcamera camera.
