2024-05-09libcamera: Drop file name from header comment blocks in templatesLaurent Pinchart
Source files in libcamera start by a comment block header, which includes the file name and a one-line description of the file contents. While the latter is useful to get a quick overview of the file contents at a glance, the former is mostly a source of inconvenience. The name in the comments can easily get out of sync with the file name when files are renamed, and copy & paste during development have often lead to incorrect names being used to start with. Readers of the source code are expected to know which file they're looking it. Drop the file name from the header comment blocks in template files and templates embedded in generator scripts.

2021-11-24libcamera: Convert to pragma onceKieran Bingham
Remove the verbose #ifndef/#define/#endif pattern for maintaining header idempotency, and replace it with a simple #pragma once. This simplifies the headers, and prevents redundant changes when header files get moved.

2020-06-18libcamera: Define constants for pixel formats in the public APILaurent Pinchart
libcamera uses pixel format FourCC and modifier values from DRM. This requires inclusion of drm_fourcc.h, creating a dependency on a header that is packaged differently between distributions, and causing possible issues with third-party applications. Define constants for the supported pixel formats in the new formats.h public API header, in order to remove the dependency on drm_fourcc.h. The header is generated by a Python script from a list of supported formats. The numerical values for the FourCC and modifier are extracted from drm_fourcc.h by the script, ensuring that numerical values are not inadvertently modified and preserving the direct interoperability. The pixel formats constants can't be generated solely from drm_fourcc.h, as that header defines FourCC values and modifier values, but doesn't list the valid combinations. The supported formats are thus stored in a YAML file, which contains the FourCC and optional modifier for each supported format. We may later extend the YAML file to include formats documentation, and possibly formats metadata to populate the pixelFormatInfo map (in formats.cpp) automatically. Now that two formats.h header are present (one in include/libcamera/ and one in include/libcamera/internal/), we need to explicitly qualify the Doxygen \file directive with a path.
