2024-10-03libcamera: software_isp: Improve wording in a commentMilan Zamazal
A minor wording improvement suggested on refactoring review. Signed-off-by: Milan Zamazal <mzamazal@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Kieran Bingham <kieran.bingham@ideasonboard.com> Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham <kieran.bingham@ideasonboard.com>
2024-09-27libcamera: software_isp: Update black level only on exposure changesMilan Zamazal
The black level is likely to get updated, if ever, only after exposure or gain changes. Don't compute its possible updates if exposure and gain are unchanged. It's probably not worth trying to implement something more sophisticated. Better to spend the effort on supporting tuning files.

2024-09-27libcamera: software_isp: Move exposure+gain to an algorithm moduleMilan Zamazal
This is the last step to fully convert software ISP to Algorithm-based processing. The newly introduced frameContext.sensor parameters are set, and the updated code moved, before calling Algorithm::process() to have the values up-to-date in stats processing. Resolves software ISP TODO #10.

2024-09-27libcamera: software_isp: Use floating point for color parametersMilan Zamazal
It's more natural to represent color gains as floating point numbers rather than using a particular pixel-related representation. double is used rather than float because it's a more common floating point type in libcamera algorithms. Otherwise there is no obvious reason to select one over the other here. The constructed color tables still use integer representation for efficiency. Black level still uses pixel (integer) values, for consistency with other libcamera parts.

2024-09-27libcamera: software_isp: Move color handling to an algorithm moduleMilan Zamazal
After black level handling has been moved to an algorithm module, white balance and the construction of color tables can be moved to algorithm modules too. This time, the moved code is split between stats processing and parameter construction methods. It is also split to two algorithm modules: - White balance computation. - Gamma table computation and color lookup tables construction. While this applies the color gains computed by the white balance algorithm, it is not directly related to white balance. And we may want to modify the color lookup tables in future according to other parameters than just gamma and white balance gains. Gamma table computation and color lookup tables construction could be split to separate algorithms too. But there is no big need for that now so they are kept together for simplicity. This is the only part of the software ISP algorithms that sets the parameters so emitting setIspParams can be moved to prepare() method. A more natural representation of the gains (and black level) would be floating point numbers. This is not done here in order to minimize changes in code movements. It will be addressed in a followup patch.

2024-09-27libcamera: software_isp: Move black level to an algorithm moduleMilan Zamazal
The black level determination, already present as a separate class, can be moved to the prepared Algorithm processing structure. It is the first of the current software ISP algorithms that is called in the stats processing sequence, which means it is also the first one that should be moved to the new structure. Stats processing starts with calling Algorithm-based processing so the call order of the algorithms is retained. Movement of this algorithm is relatively straightforward because all it does is processing stats. The comment about getting black level from the tuning files is dropped. The black level will be taken from CameraSensorHelper if available and that will be implemented in one of the followup patches. Black level is now recomputed on each stats processing. In a future patch, after DelayedControls are used, this will be changed to recompute the black level only after exposure/gain changes. The black level depends on the sensor used, the computed value can be reused in a followup capture sessions with the same sensor. Thus it is sufficient to (re)set the initial value in BlackLevel::init.

2024-09-27libcamera: software_isp: Create algorithmsMilan Zamazal
We are ready to introduce algorithms now. First, let's create algorithms. The algorithms are not called yet, calls to them will be added in followup patches. The maximum number of contexts is set to the same value as in hardware pipelines.

2024-09-27libcamera: software_isp: Define skeletons for IPA refactoringMilan Zamazal
Software ISP image processing algorithms are currently defined in a simplified way, different from other libcamera pipelines. This is not good for several reasons: - It makes the software ISP code harder to understand due to its different structuring. - Adding more algorithms may make the code harder to understand generally. - Mass libcamera code changes may not be easily applicable to software ISP. - Algorithm sharing with other pipelines is not easily possible. This patch introduces basic software ISP IPA skeletons structured similarly to the other pipelines. The newly added files are currently not used or compiled and the general skeleton structures don't contain anything particular. It is just a preparation step for a larger refactoring and the code will be actually used and extended as needed in followup patches.
