2019-06-05libcamera: ipa_module_info: update struct to allow IPA matchingPaul Elder
We need a way to match pipelines with IPA modules, so add fields in IPAModuleInfo to hold the IPA module API version number, the pipeline name, and the pipeline version. The module API version is used to determine the layout of struct IPAModuleInfo. Also update IPA module tests and Doxygen accordingly. Doxygen needs to be updated to accomodate __attribute__((packed)). Signed-off-by: Paul Elder <paul.elder@ideasonboard.com> Reviewed-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com>

2019-05-21libcamera: ipa_module: add IPA shared library modulePaul Elder
Implement a class to wrap around an IPA module shared object. For now, just load a struct IPAModuleInfo with symbol name ipaModuleInfo from an IPA module .so shared object. Also provide a public header file including the struct IPAModuleInfo, structured such that both C and C++ IPA modules are supported.

2019-05-03libcamera: device_enumerator: add DeviceEnumeratorSysfs classPaul Elder
A udev-based device enumerator is not sufficient, since libudev is an optional dependency, or udev might fail. In these cases, we should fall back to using sysfs to enumerate devices. Add a DeviceEnumeratorSysfs class which is a specialization of DeviceEnumerator that uses sysfs to enumerate media devices on the system.

2019-04-28Documentation: Drop install directive for DoxyfileNiklas Söderlund
Building the documentation reports warnings, WARNING: Project targetting '>= 0.40' but tried to use feature introduced in '0.50.0': install arg in configure_file WARNING: Project specifies a minimum meson_version '>= 0.40' but uses features which were added in newer versions: * 0.50.0: {'install arg in configure_file'} Due to the usage of the directive configure_file { install: false } in Documentation/meason.build which is introduced in meson 0.50. As we do not wish to install the Doxyfile no install_dir is set so there is no need to explicitly state that it should not be installed. Silence the warning by dropping the install directive.

2019-04-27libcamera: Make libudev optionalLaurent Pinchart
libcamera depends on libudev for device enumeration. It is however useful to allow building documentation without requiring the dependency to be installed. Make the libudev dependency optional and compile the udev-based device enumerator out when libudev is not present. Note that while libcamera will compile without libudev, it will not be able to enumerate devices. A sysfs-based device enumerator is planned as a fallback but not implemented yet.

2019-02-13libcamera: signal: Disconnect signal automatically on slot deletionLaurent Pinchart
When a signal is connected to a member function slot, the slot is not disconnected when the slot object is deleted. This can lead to calling a member function of a deleted object if the signal isn't disconnected manually by the slot object's destructor. Make signal handling easier by implementing a base Object class that tracks all connected signals and disconnects from them automatically when the object is deleted, using template specialization resolution in the Signal class. As inheriting from the Object class may to a too harsh requirement for Signal usage in applications, keep the existing behaviour working if the slot doesn't inherit from the Object class. We may reconsider this later and require all slot objects to inherit from the Object class.
