The libcamera internal headers are located in src/libcamera/include/.
The directory is added to the compiler headers search path with a meson
include_directories() directive, and internal headers are included with
(e.g. for the internal semaphore.h header)
#include "semaphore.h"
All was well, until libcxx decided to implement the C++20
synchronization library. The __threading_support header gained a
#include <semaphore.h>
to include the pthread's semaphore support. As include_directories()
adds src/libcamera/include/ to the compiler search path with -I, the
internal semaphore.h is included instead of the pthread version.
Needless to say, the compiler isn't happy.
Three options have been considered to fix this issue:
- Use -iquote instead of -I. The -iquote option instructs gcc to only
consider the header search path for headers included with the ""
version. Meson unfortunately doesn't support this option.
- Rename the internal semaphore.h header. This was deemed to be the
beginning of a long whack-a-mole game, where namespace clashes with
system libraries would appear over time (possibly dependent on
particular system configurations) and would need to be constantly
fixed.
- Move the internal headers to another directory to create a unique
namespace through path components. This causes lots of churn in all
the existing source files through the all project.
The first option would be best, but isn't available to us due to missing
support in meson. Even if -iquote support was added, we would need to
fix the problem before a new version of meson containing the required
support would be released.
The third option is thus the only practical solution available. Bite the
bullet, and do it, moving headers to include/libcamera/internal/.

Now that libcamera creates threads internally and doesn't rely on an
application-provided event loop, remove the thread from the V4L2
compatibility layer. The split between the V4L2CameraProxy and
V4L2Camera classes is still kept to separate the V4L2 adaptation from
camera operation. This may be further refactored later.

In the upcoming FrameBuffer API the memory mapping of buffers will be
left to the user of the FrameBuffer objects. Prepare the V4L2
compatibility layer to this upcoming change to ease conversion to the
new API.

Create a new FileOperations structure to hold all the dynamically-loaded
C library file operations. The file operations are now exposed publicly,
to prepare for usage of mmap in the V4L2CameraProxy.
A new template helper function is added to retrieve a symbol with
dlsym() with proper casting to simplify the V4L2CompatManager
constructor.

Add libcamera V4L2 compatibility layer.
This initial implementation supports the minimal set of V4L2 operations,
which allows getting, setting, and enumerating formats, and streaming
frames from a video device. Some data about the wrapped V4L2 video
device are hardcoded.
Add a build option named 'v4l2' and adjust the build system to
selectively compile the V4L2 compatibility layer.
For now we match the V4L2 device node to a libcamera camera based on a
devnum that a pipeline handler may optionally map to a libcamera
camera.
