2024-05-14libcamera: pipeline: Rename pipelines to a shorter nameJulien Vuillaumier
The PipelineHandlerFactoryBase class has a name that is propagated to the PipelineHandler instance it creates. In present implementation, this name comes from the REGISTER_PIPELINE_HANDLER registration macro. It corresponds to the stringified name of the PipelineHandler derived class. Therefore, PipelineHandler factories and instances names can be quite long such as "PipelineHandlerRkISP1". A libcamera user may have to explicitly refer to a PipelineHandler name for configuration purpose: one usage of the name can be to define a pipeline handlers match list and their priorities. It is desired, for user convenience, to use a short name to designate a pipeline handler. Reusing the short pipeline names already defined in the meson option files is an existing and consistent way of naming pipelines. This change adds an explicit name parameter to the REGISTER_PIPELINE_HANDLER registration macro. That parameter is used to define the name of a pipeline handler factory, instead of the current pipeline handler class name. Each pipeline registration is updated accordingly. The short name assigned corresponds to the pipeline directory name in the source tree. It is consistent with pipelines names used in meson. Changing the pipeline name has an impact on the IPA modules: each module defines a IPAModuleInfo structure. This structure has a pipelineName member defining the pipeline handler name it shall match with. Therefore, each internal IPA module definition has to be changed to have its IPAModuleInfo pipelineName name updated with the short pipeline handler name. In addition to this pipelineName member, the IPAModuleInfo structure also has a name member, associated to the IPA module name. Having renamed the pipelines to a short name, the pipeline name and the IPA module names of the IPAModuleInfo structure are the same: for in-tree IPA, they correspond to the respective pipeline and IPA subdirectories in the source tree. However the IPA name could be different, for instance with a close source IPA implementation built out-of-tree. Thus, it makes sense to keep the IPA name in that structure, as the 2 definitions may not always be redundant.

2023-11-29build: controls: Rework how controls and properties are generatedNaushir Patuck
Add support for using separate YAML files for controls and properties generation. The mapping of vendor/pipeline handler to control file is done through the controls_map variable in include/libcamera/meson.build. This simplifies management of vendor control definitions and avoids possible merge conflicts when changing the control_ids.yaml file for core and draft controls. With this change, libcamera and draft controls and properties files are designated the 'libcamera' vendor tag. In this change, we also rename control_ids.yaml -> control_ids_core.yaml and property_ids.yaml -> property_ids_core.yaml to designate these as core libcamera controls.

2023-07-04libcamera: camera: Take span of StreamRole instead of vectorBarnabás Pőcze
Change the parameter type of `generateConfiguration()` from `const std::vector&` to `libcamera::Span`. A span is almost always preferable to a const vector ref because it does not force dynamic allocation when none are needed, and it allows any contiguous container to be used. A new overload is added that accepts an initializer list so that cam->generateConfiguration({ ... }) keeps working. There is no API break since a span can be constructed from a vector and the initializer list overload takes care of the initializer lists, but this change causes an ABI break.

2022-08-03libcamera: v4l2_videodevice: Reintroduce toV4L2PixelFormat()Jacopo Mondi
This is a partial revert of commit 395d43d6d75b ("libcamera: v4l2_videodevice: Drop toV4L2PixelFormat()") The function was removed because it incorrectly maps non-contiguous V4L2 format variants (ie V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV420M) to the API version supported by the video device (singleplanar API and multiplanar API). It was decided at the time to remove the function and let its users call directly V4L2PixelFormat::fromPixelFormat() which accepts a 'multiplanar' flags. As we aim to associate multiple V4L2PixelFormat to a single libcamera format, the next patches will verify which of them is actually supported by the video device. For now, return the contiguous version unconditionally. Re-introduce V4L2VideoDevice::toV4L2PixelFormat() and convert all the V4L2PixelFormat::fromPixelFormat() users to use it. The V4L2 compatibility layer is the only outlier as it doesn't have a video device to poke, hence it still uses V4L2PixelFormat::fromPixelFormat(). Next patches will implement the device format matching logic and handle the non-contiguous plane issue in V4L2VideoDevice::toV4L2PixelFormat().

The problem has been addressed a while ago, and the git.linuxtv.org libcamera repository is now a mirror of the main git tree.

2021-09-07libcamera: v4l2_videodevice: Drop toV4L2PixelFormat()Laurent Pinchart
The V4L2VideoDevice::toV4L2PixelFormat() function is incorrectly implemented, as it will pick a multi-planar format if the device supports the multi-planar API, even if only single-planar formats are supported. This currently works because the implementation calls V4L2PixelFormat::fromPixelFormat(), which ignores the multiplanar argument and always returns a single-planar format. Fixing this isn't trivial. As we don't need to support multi-planar V4L2 formats at this point, drop the function instead of pretending everything is fine, and call V4L2PixelFormat::fromPixelFormat() directly from pipeline handlers. As the single-planar case is the most common, set the multiplanar argument to false by default to avoid long lines.
