Let me do this. libcamera might be future, but... Sure, if it's useful for you, I won't prevent you from developing any code you want :-) But there's very little chance of getting it merged, and it would be useful to more people to have a support for that platform in libcamera. It's really your decision, and I'm not blaming you. > >> It enables passing camera pipeline description to libv4l2, so that > >> controls are mapped to appopriate devices, and libv4l2 can be used > >> with complex camera. > >> > >> It is useful for testing kernel parts of N900 subsystem, and it will > >> serve as a basis for autofocus work and autogain improvements. > >> > >> Signed-off-by: Pavel Machek <pavel@xxxxxx> -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
