2021-08-31libcamera: pipeline: simple: Move converter to SimpleCameraDataLaurent Pinchart
To use multiple cameras at the same time, each camera instance will need its own converter. Store the converter in SimpleCameraData, and open it in init(). Signed-off-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com> Tested-by: Martin Kepplinger <martin.kepplinger@puri.sm>

Merge the SimplePipelineHandler videos_ and subdevs_ maps, which respectively store V4L2 video devices and subdevices associated with entities, into a single entities_ map that contains an EntityData structure. This gathers all data about entities in a single place, allowing for easy extension of entity data in the future.

2021-08-31libcamera: pipeline: simple: Store video node entity in camera dataLaurent Pinchart
Store the entity corresponding to the video node at the end of the pipeline in the SimpleCameraData::entities_ list.

2021-08-31libcamera: pipeline: simple: Delay opening of video device until init()Laurent Pinchart
The video device is currently opened in the SimpleCameraData constructor. This requires opening the video devices on-demand the first time they're accessed, which gets in the way of refactoring of per-entity data storage in the pipeline handler. Move opening of the video device to the SimpleCameraData::init() function. The on-demand open mechanism isn't touched yet, it will be refactored later.

2021-08-31ipu3: cio2: Tweak sensor size selection policyUmang Jain
Do not compare higher precision of the ratios, as it might lead to absurd selection of sensor size for a relatively low requested resolution size. For example: The imx258 driver supports the following sensor resolutions: - 4208x3118 = 1.349583066 - 2104x1560 = 1.348717949 - 1048x780 = 1.343589744 It can be inferred that, that the aspect ratio only differs by a small mantissa with each other. It does not makes sense to select a 4208x3118 for a requested size of say 640x480 or 1280x720, which is what is happening currently. ($) cam -c1 -swidth=640,height=480,role=raw - CIO2 configuration: 4208x3118-SGRBG10_IPU3 [*] In order to address this constraint, only compare the ratio with single precision to make a better decision on the sensor resolution policy selection.

2021-08-31ipu3: cio2: Change sensor size selection policyUmang Jain
The current implementation of getSensorFormat() prioritizes sensor sizes that match the output size FOV ratio. Modify the frame size selection procedure to prioritize resolutions with the same FOV as the sensor's native one, to avoid cropping in the sensor pixel array. For example: - on a Soraka device equipped with ov13858 as back sensor, with a native resolution of 4224x3136 (4:3), when requested to select the sensor output size to produce 1080p (16:9) a frame size of 2112x1188 (16:9) is selected causing the ImgU configuration procedure to fail. If a resolution with the same FOV as the sensor's native size, such as 2112x1568 (4:3), is selected the pipeline works correctly.

2021-08-31ipu3: cio2: Replicate CameraSensor::getFormats() to a member functionUmang Jain
This prepares a base to introduce custom selection of sensor format based on platform(Soraka or Nautilus) constraints. The changes in selection policy will be introduced in a subsequent patch. The function is copied from CameraSensor::getFormat() in the IPU3 pipeline handler code to be later changed on top. The copy is not verbatim and has a minor change as follows: CameraSensor::getFormats() has access to a V4L2Subdevice::Formats internally and use it directly to iterate over supported camera sensor frame sizes. The copy is adapted to use the CameraSensor::sizes(mbusCode) instead, to enumerate over the supported frame sizes as per mbusCodesToPixelFormat map. No functional changes in this patch.

2021-08-31libcamera: camera_sensor: Transform CameraSensor::sizes()Umang Jain
In CameraSensor, the mbusCodes() and sizes() accessor functions retrieves all the supported media bus codes and the supported sizes respectively. However, this is quite limiting since the caller probably isn't in a position to match which range of sizes are supported for a particular mbusCode. Hence, the caller is most likely interested to know about the sizes supported for a particular media bus code. This patch transforms the existing CameraSensor::sizes() to CameraSensor::sizes(mbuscode) to achieve that goal. The patch also transforms existing CIO2Device::sizes() in IPU3 pipeline handler to CIO2Device::sizes(PixelFormat) on a similar principle. The function is then plumbed to CameraSensor::sizes(mbusCode) to enumerate the per-format sizes as required in PipelineHandlerIPU3::generateConfiguration().

ASan needs to be loaded first before gstreamer is loaded. This was not possible, so verify_asan_link_order was disabled. Better way to tackle this issue was disabling forks on the gstreamer side. verify_asan_link_order=0 disables the check on ASan side which checks if ASan was loaded before any other shared objects. Since, gstreamer spawns a child helper process while building the registry, we needed to disable this check. But with gst_registry_fork_set_enabled() it is possible to disable spawning this child helper process, so this ensures that ASan is loaded before any other shared object is loaded.
