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.

2024-05-08libcamera: Drop file name from header comment blocksLaurent 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 block. The change was generated with the following script: ---------------------------------------- dirs="include/libcamera src test utils" declare -rA patterns=( ['c']=' \* ' ['cpp']=' \* ' ['h']=' \* ' ['py']='# ' ['sh']='# ' ) for ext in ${!patterns[@]} ; do files=$(for dir in $dirs ; do find $dir -name "*.${ext}" ; done) pattern=${patterns[${ext}]} for file in $files ; do name=$(basename ${file}) sed -i "s/^\(${pattern}\)${name} - /\1/" "$file" done done ---------------------------------------- This misses several files that are out of sync with the comment block header. Those will be addressed separately and manually. Signed-off-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com> Reviewed-by: Daniel Scally <dan.scally@ideasonboard.com>
2024-04-16libcamera: software_isp: Apply black level compensationMilan Zamazal
Black may not be represented as 0 pixel value for given hardware, it may be higher. If this is not compensated then various problems may occur such as low contrast or suboptimal exposure. The black pixel value can be either retrieved from a tuning file for the given hardware, or automatically on the fly. The former is the right and correct method, while the latter can be used when a tuning file is not available for the given hardware. Since there is currently no support for tuning files in software ISP, the automatic, hardware independent way, is always used. Support for tuning files should be added in future but it will require more work than this patch. The patch looks at the image histogram and assumes that black starts when pixel values start occurring on the left. A certain amount of the darkest pixels is ignored; it doesn't matter whether they represent various kinds of noise or are real, they are better to omit in any case to make the image looking better. It also doesn't matter whether the darkest pixels occur around the supposed black level or are spread between 0 and the black level, the difference is not important. An arbitrary threshold of 2% darkest pixels is applied; there is no magic about that value. The patch assumes that the black values for different colors are the same and doesn't attempt any other non-primitive enhancements. It cannot completely replace tuning files and simplicity, while providing visible benefit, is its goal. Anything more sophisticated is left for future patches. A possible cheap enhancement, if needed, could be setting exposure + gain to minimum values temporarily, before setting the black level. In theory, the black level should be fixed but it may not be reached in all images. For this reason, the patch updates black level only if the observed value is lower than the current one; it should be never increased. The purpose of the patch is to compensate for hardware properties. General image contrast enhancements are out of scope of this patch. Stats are still gathered as an uncorrected histogram, to avoid any confusion and to represent the raw image data. Exposure must be determined after the black level correction -- it has no influence on the sub-black area and must be correct after applying the black level correction. The granularity of the histogram is increased from 16 to 64 to provide a better precision (there is no theory behind either of those numbers).

2024-04-16libcamera: ipa: Add Soft IPAAndrey Konovalov
Define the Soft IPA main and event interfaces, add the Soft IPA implementation. The current src/ipa/meson.build assumes the IPA name to match the pipeline name. For this reason "-Dipas=simple" is used for the Soft IPA module. Auto exposure/gain and AWB implementation by Dennis, Toon and Martti. Auto exposure/gain targets a Mean Sample Value of 2.5 following the MSV calculation algorithm from: https://www.araa.asn.au/acra/acra2007/papers/paper84final.pdf Use CameraSensorHelper to convert the analogue gain code read from the camera sensor into real analogue gain value. In the future this makes it possible to use faster AE/AGC algorithm. Right now the CameraSensorHelper lets us use the full range of analogue gain values. If there is no CameraSensorHelper for the camera sensor in use, a warning log message is printed.
