[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v2 00/10] IPU3: Introduce modularity for algorithms

[Jean-Michel Hautbois]

This patch series splits the algorithms in IPU3 into a modular form.
When the Metadata class was discussed a proposal from Kieran was to have
a fully-defined structure which would be used to pass the context
between algorithms and the IPAIPU3 class, as well as between the
algorithms themselves.

The algorithms are statically emplaced in a list for the moment, and a
registration system may be used later.
In order to demonstrate how to add a new algorithm, patch 3/5
demonstrates how the AWBgrid is calculated using the BDS configuration
from the pipeline handler and the IPAConfigInfo.

Patch 4/10 adds a prepare function to the algorithm interface, and patch
5/10 introduces a process function with a demonstration of its usage
with a new contrast algorithm.

Patch 6/10 and 7/10 change the AWB and AGC to use the new interface.
Patch 8/10 removes unneeded stuff from AGC before moving it into the
algorithms directory, to make it as straightforward as possible.

And the two latest patches are indeed the usage of the new modular
interface.
