Hi Jacopo,

Thank you for the patch.

Isn't the usual practice to use "libcamera: pipeline:" as a prefix for
pipeline handler patches in the subject line ?

A weird value, but why not.

I'd set these to 64 and 4, as the alignment constraints are multiple of
4 and multiple of 4, and subtract 1 in the code.

I would also rename the constants to use an IMGU prefix if they're
specific to the ImgU (those two seem to be, I don't know about the
previous ones).

Would "[PATCH] libcamera: geometry: Add helper functions to the Size
class" help ?

			cfg.size = sensorResolution.boundedTo({IPU3_OUTPUT_MAX_WIDTH,
							       IPU3_OUTPUT_MAX_HEIGHT})
						   .alignedTo(IPU3_OUTPUT_WIDTH_ALIGN,
							      IPU3_OUTPUT_HEIGHT_ALIGN);

IPU3_OUTPUT_MAX_WIDTH and IPU3_OUTPUT_MAX_HEIGHT could become
IPU3_OUTPUT_MAX_SIZE to simplify it further.
