[libcamera-devel] [PATCH 1/2] libcamera: v4l2-format: Add V4L2DeviceFormat

[Jacopo Mondi]

+/**
+ * \class V4L2DeviceFormat
+ * \brief The V4L2 device image format and sizes
+ *
+ * Describes the image format and image sizes to be programmed on a V4L2
+ * video device. The image format is defined by fourcc code as defined by
+ * the V4L2 APIs with the V4L2_PIX_FMT_ macros, a visible width and height
+ * and a variable number of planes (1 to 3) with variable sizes and line
+ * strides.
+ *
+ * Formats defined as 'single planar' by the V4L2 APIs are represented with
+ * V4L2DeviceFormat instances with a single plane
+ * (V4L2DeviceFormat::planes = 1). Semi-planar and multiplanar formats use
+ * 2 and 3 planes respectively.
+ *
+ * V4L2DeviceFormat defines the exchange format between components that
+ * receive image configuration requests from applications and a V4L2Device.
+ * The V4L2Device validates and applies the requested size and format to
+ * the device driver.
