Is passing arguments in as integers correct or will result in a lost
of precision ?

I see in the next patch the IPU3 IPA is converted to use this helper

double Agc::estimateLuminance(double gain) const
{
	double redSum = 0, greenSum = 0, blueSum = 0;

	for (unsigned int i = 0; i < rgbTriples_.size(); i++) {
		redSum += std::min(std::get<0>(rgbTriples_[i]) * gain, 255.0);
		greenSum += std::min(std::get<1>(rgbTriples_[i]) * gain, 255.0);
		blueSum += std::min(std::get<2>(rgbTriples_[i]) * gain, 255.0);
	}


-       double ySum = redSum * rGain_ * 0.299
-                   + greenSum * gGain_ * 0.587
-                   + blueSum * bGain_ * 0.114;
+	double ySum = rec601LuminanceFromRGB(redSum * rGain_,
+					     greenSum * gGain_,
+					     blueSum * bGain_);

	return ySum / (bdsGrid_.height * bdsGrid_.width) / 255;
}

Now redSum * rGain_ (and greenSum * gGain_ and blueSum * bGain_)
are indeed doubles. If you pass them in as integers I'm afraid you're
implicitly converting and rounding them. I made a little test program

double rec601LuminanceFromRGB(unsigned int r, unsigned int g, unsigned int b)
{
	return (r * .299) + (g * .587) + (b * .114);
}

double rec601LuminanceFromRGBDouble(double r, double g, double b)
{
	return (r * .299) + (g * .587) + (b * .114);
}

int main()
{
	double r = 1.234;
	double g = 2.345;
	double b = 3.456;

	std::cout << rec601LuminanceFromRGB(r, g, b) << std::endl;
	std::cout << rec601LuminanceFromRGBDouble(r, g, b) << std::endl;

	return 0;
}

And indeed it prints different results

$ ./a.out
1.815
2.13946

Have you checked in the IPU3 IPA if the results of the computation
are the same ?
