[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v8 13/13] libcamera: ipu3: Enable ImgU media links

Wed Apr 3 10:01:48 CEST 2019


As the lengthy comment reports, link enable/disable is not trivial, as
links in one ImgU instance interfere with capture operations in the
other one. As it is not yet clear if this behaviour is intended, as of
now reset the media graph during pipeline's match() and enable the
required links at streamConfiguration time.
