[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v1 1/2] build: controls: Add Raspberry Pi vendor specific controls

Mon Dec 4 17:19:00 CET 2023


Add a new control_ids_rpi.yaml file to hold the Raspberry Pi specific
vendor controls.

Define a control StatsOutputEnable to allow the ISP hardware statistics
to be output through metadata via the Bcm2835StatsOutput control. The
implementation of these controls will follow in a subsequent patch.
