[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v3 1/9] libcamera: framebuffer: Add offset to FrameBuffer::Plane

[Hirokazu Honda]

This adds offset to FrameBuffer::Plane. It enables representing frame
buffers that store planes in the same dmabuf at different offsets, as
for instance required by the V4L2 NV12 pixel format.
