2023-11-30libcamera: controls: Use vendor tags for draft controls and propertiesNaushir Patuck
Label draft controls and properties through the "draft" vendor tag and deprecate the existing "draft: true" mechanism. This uses the new vendor tags mechanism to place draft controls in the same libcamera::controls::draft namespace and provide a defined control id range for these controls. This requires moving all draft controls from control_ids.yaml to control_ids_draft.yaml. One breaking change in this commit is that draft control ids also move to the libcamera::controls::draft namespace from the existing libcamera::controls namespace. This is desirable to avoid API breakages when adding new libcamera controls. So, for example, the use of controls::NOISE_REDUCTION_MODE will need to be replaced with controls::draft::NOISE_REDUCTION_MODE.

2023-11-29controls: Add vendor control/property support to generation scriptsNaushir Patuck
Add support for vendor-specific controls and properties to libcamera. The controls/properties are defined by a "vendor" tag in the YAML control description file, for example: vendor: rpi controls: - MyExampleControl: type: string description: | Test for libcamera vendor-specific controls. This will now generate a control id in the libcamera::controls::rpi namespace, ensuring no id conflict between different vendors, core or draft libcamera controls. Similarly, a ControlIdMap control is generated in the libcamera::controls::rpi namespace. A #define LIBCAMERA_HAS_RPI_VENDOR_CONTROLS is also generated to allow applications to conditionally compile code if the specific vendor controls are present. For the python bindings, the control is available with libcamera.controls.rpi.MyExampleControl. The above controls example applies similarly to properties. Existing libcamera controls defined in control_ids.yaml are given the "libcamera" vendor tag. A new --mode flag is added to gen-controls.py to specify the mode of operation, either 'controls' or 'properties' to allow the code generator to correctly set the #define string. As a drive-by, sort and redefine the output command line argument in gen-controls.py and gen-py-controls.py to ('--output', '-o') for consistency.

2020-10-26libcamera: controls: Generate an array of valid valuesJacopo Mondi
For each Control that supports enumerated values generate an array of ControlValue which contains the full list of valid values. At the expense of a slight increase in memory occupation this change allows the construction of the ControlInfo associated with a Control from the values list, defaulting the minimum and maximum values reported by the ControlInfo.

2020-10-26libcamera: Support draft controls and propertiesKieran Bingham
Extend the control and property framework to support exposing draft controls and properties in a scoped namespace. The controls/properties themselves will retain the same ordering in the relevant enum/id maps - but the access to any draft control will require explicitly referencing through its' draft:: namespace prefix.

2019-10-13libcamera: control_ids: Generate map of all supported controlsLaurent Pinchart
In order to deserialise a ControlList, we will need to lookup ControlId instances based on their numerical ID. Generate a global map from the controls definitions to support such a lookup.

2019-10-13libcamera: control_ids: Fix documentation for controls namespaceLaurent Pinchart
The controls namespace isn't documenting, making it impossible to reference the variables it contains. Furthermore, within the documentation page for the control_ids.h file, links from overview to detailed variable documentation are broken for the same reason. Both issues can be fixed by documenting the controls namespace. Unfortunately doxygen then fails to parse the initialisers for the controls global variables correctly and considers them as functions. To work around this, modify the control_ids.cpp generation script to hide the variables from doxygen, but still expose their documentation.

2019-10-05libcamera: controls: Auto-generate control_ids.h and control_ids.cppLaurent Pinchart
Bring back auto-generation of control ids. In this version, both the header and the source files are generated from a single YAML file that stores all control definitions. This allows centralising controls in a single file, while the previous version required keeping both declarations (in a header) and documentation (in a the source) in sync manually. Using YAML as a format to store control definitions is a trade-off between ease of use (there are many YAML parsers available) and simplicity (XML was considered, but would have lead to more complex processing). A new build time dependency is added on python3-yaml, which should be available as a package in all distributions and build environments. The YAML format is likely to change over time as we improve documentation of controls, the first version simply copies the information currently available. Future improvements should also include a YAML schema to validate the YAML source file.
