[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v2 05/10] ipa: ipu3: Introduce a modular contrast algorithm

Jean-Michel Hautbois jeanmichel.hautbois at ideasonboard.com
Thu Aug 12 18:52:38 CEST 2021


Introduce a new algorithm to manage the contrast handling of the IPU3.

The initial algorithm is chosen to configure the gamma contrast curve
which moves the implementation out of AWB for simplicity. As it is
initialised with a default gamma value of 1.1, there is no need to use
the default table at init time anymore.

This demonstrates the way to use process() call when the EventStatReady
comes in. The function calculates the LUT in the context of a frame, and
when prepare() is called, the parameters are filled with the updated
values.

AGC needs to be modified to take the new process interface into account.
