2019-08-19qcam: Remove double stop of the camera managerLaurent Pinchart
The camera manager is stopped both in the destructor of the MainWindow class and in the main() function. This double stop isn't needed, remove the former and keep the latter as the manager is started in the main() function.

2019-07-14libcamera: buffer: Add an accessor to the BufferMemoryLaurent Pinchart
Buffer instances reference memory, which is modelled internally by a BufferMemory instance. Store a pointer to the BufferMemory in the Buffer class, and populate it when the buffer is queued to the camera through a request. This is useful for applications to access the buffer memory in the buffer or request completion handler.

2019-07-14libcamera: stream: Shorten access to the bufferPoolJacopo Mondi
All interactions with the Stream's buffers currently go through the BufferPool. In order to shorten accessing the buffers array, and eventually restrict access to the Stream's internal buffer pool, provide operations to access, create and destroy buffers. It is still possible to access the pool for pipeline handlers to populate it by exporting buffers from a video device to Stream's pool.

2019-07-14libcamera: Stop using Stream::bufferPool to get the number of buffersLaurent Pinchart
The cam and qcam applications, as well as the camera capture test case, access the Stream::bufferPool in order to know how many requests to initially queue. As part of an effort to remove access to the buffer pool from applications, use the buffer count from the stream configuration instead.

2019-07-14libcamera: buffer: Split memory information to BufferMemoryLaurent Pinchart
The Buffer class is a large beast the stores information about the buffer memory, dynamic metadata related to the frame stored in the buffer, and buffer reference data (in the index). In order to implement buffer import we will need to extend this with dmabuf file descriptors, making usage of the class even more complex. Refactor the Buffer class by splitting the buffer memory information to a BufferMemory class, and repurposing the Buffer class to reference a buffer and to store dynamic metadata. The BufferMemory class becomes a long term storage, valid and stable from the time buffer memory is allocated to the time it is freed. The Buffer class, on the other hand, becomes transient, is created on demand when an application requires a buffer, is given to a request, and is deleted when the request completes. Buffer and BufferMemory don't need to be copied, so their copy constructor and assignment operators are deleted.

2019-07-09libcamera: Rework automatic version generation to avoid rebuildsLaurent Pinchart
Commit b817bcec6b53 ("libcamera: Auto generate version information") generates version information in order to automatically include it various locations (Sphinx and Doxygen documentation, libcamera::version variable available at runtime, and version.h available at compile time). Unfortunately this causes lots of unnecessary rebuilds when modifying the git tree state, which hinders development. The problem is caused by the generated version.h being listed as a dependency for the whole libcamera. This is required as meson (to the best of my knowledge) doesn't provide a way to explicitly specify the dependency of a single object file (camera_manager.o in this case, as camera_manager.cpp is the only consumer of the generated version string) on the custom target used to generate version.h. The dependency can't be automatically detected at build time, like dependencies on normal headers that are generated by parsing the source, because the version.h header may not exist yet. The build could then fail in a racy way. This change attempts at solving the issue by generating a version.cpp instead of a version.h to set the git-based version. This minimises the number of files that need to be rebuild when then git tree state changes, while retaining the main purpose of the original automatic version generation, the ability to access the git-based version string at runtime. We however lose the ability to access git-based version information at build time in an application building against libcamera, but there is no expected use case for this. The version string is moved from the libcamera namespace to the CameraManager class in order to avoid including version.h inside libcamera (in version.cpp and in camera_manager.cpp), which would create dependencies causing more rebuild steps, as described above. On the other hand, major, minor and patch level version numbers are useful at build time. This commit changes the generation of version.h in order to add three macros named LIBCAMERA_VERSION_MAJOR, LIBCAMERA_VERSION_MINOR and LIBCAMERA_VERSION_PATCH for this purpose. version.h is not included by any other libcamera header or source file, and thus doesn't force a rebuild of the library. The Sphinx and Doxygen documentation keep their git-based version information, which is set during the configuration of the build and then doesn't track git commits. We may want to investigate how to improve this, but given that git-based version for the documentation has very few use cases outside of tagging nightly builds, this isn't considered an issue at the moment. The documentation install directory now uses the base version string, in order to avoid increasing the number of documentation directories needlessly. This shouldn't cause any issue as the API should not change without a change to the version number. The version number generation and handling code now also standardises the version variables to not start with a 'v' prefix in meson, in order to simplify their handling. The prefix is added when generating the relevant files. Note that we go back to specifying the fallback version in the main meson.build, in the call to the project() function. For the time being I believe this should be a good compromise to avoid unnecessary recompilation, and moving the fallback version to a different file for tarball releases can be built on top of this.

2019-05-23libcamera: camera: Return a pointer from generateConfiguration()Laurent Pinchart
To prepare for specialising the CameraConfiguration class in pipeline handlers, return a pointer to a camera configuration instead of a reference from Camera::generateConfiguration(). The camera configuration always needs to be allocated from the pipeline handler, and its ownership is passed to the application. For symmetry, change Camera::configure() to take a CameraConfiguration pointer instead of a reference. This aligns with our coding practice of passing parameters that are modified by the callee by pointer.

2019-05-23libcamera: Refactor the camera configuration storage and APILaurent Pinchart
Refactor the CameraConfiguration structure to not rely on Stream instances. This is a step towards making the camera configuration object more powerful with configuration validation using "try" semantics. The CameraConfiguration now exposes a simple vector-like API to access the contained stream configurations. Both operator[]() and at() are provided to access elements. The isEmpty() method is renamed to empty() and the methods reordered to match the std::vector class. As applications need access to the Stream instances associated with the configuration entries in order to associate buffers with streams when creating requests, expose the stream selected by the pipeline handler through a new StreamConfiguration::stream().

2019-04-05libcamera: camera: Add support for stream usagesNiklas Söderlund
Instead of requesting the default configuration for a set of streams where the application has to figure out which streams provided by the camera is best suited for its intended usage, have the library figure this out by using stream usages. The application asks the library for a list of streams and a suggested default configuration for them by supplying a list of stream usages. Once the list is retrieved the application can fine-tune the returned configuration and then try to apply it to the camera. Currently no pipeline handler is prepared to handle stream usages but nor did it make use of the list of Stream IDs which was the previous interface. The main reason for this is that all cameras currently only provide one stream each. This will still be the case but the API will be prepared to expand both pipeline handlers and applications to support streams usages.
