From 808a395d195ff7d35b00da34f6276a0178492081 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Klug Date: Wed, 3 Jul 2024 15:49:49 +0200 Subject: ipa: libipa: Add black levels to camera sensor helper For a proper tuning process we need to know the sensor black levels. In most cases these are fixed and not reported by the kernel driver. Store them inside the sensor helpers for later retrieval by the algorithms. Add black level value corresponding to the data pedestal for three initial sensors as documented in the datasheets. More should be added, eventually filling the gaps for all supported sensors.
