2024-11-26libcamera: Rename "shutter speed" to "exposure time"Laurent Pinchart
The terms "shutter" and "shutter speed" are used through libcamera to mean "exposure time". This is confusing, both due to "speed" being used as "time" while it should be the inverse (i.e. a maximum speed should correspond to the minimum time), and due to "shutter speed" and "exposure time" being used in different places with the same meaning. To improve clarity of the code base and the documentation, use "exposure time" consistently to replace "shutter speed". This rename highlighted another vocabulary issue in libcamera. The ExposureModeHelper::splitExposure() function used to document that it splits "exposure time into shutter time and gain". It has been reworded to "split exposure into exposure time and gain". That is not entirely satisfactory, as "exposure" has a defined meaning in photography (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exposure_(photography)) that is not expressed as a duration. This issue if left to be addressed separately.

2024-10-28ipa: libipa: Fix ExposureModeHelper function name in documentationLaurent Pinchart
Previous iterations of the ExposureModeHelper class had a setShutterGainLimits() function, which got renamed to setLimits(). The documentation still uses the old name. Fix it.

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>
