[libcamera-devel] [PATCH 8/8] android: Implement flush() camera operation

[Jacopo Mondi]

Implement the flush() camera operation in the CameraDevice class
and make it available to the camera framework by implementing the
operation wrapper in camera_ops.cpp.

The flush() implementation stops the Camera and the worker thread and
waits for all in-flight requests to be returned. Stopping the Camera
forces all Requests already queued to be returned immediately in error
state. As flush() has to wait until all of them have been returned, make it
wait on a newly introduced condition variable which is notified by the
request completion handler when the queue of pending requests has been
exhausted.

As flush() can race with processCaptureRequest() protect the requests
queueing by introducing a new CameraState::CameraFlushing state that
processCaptureRequest() inspects before queuing the Request to the
Camera. If flush() has been called while processCaptureRequest() was
executing, return the current Request immediately in error state.
