[PATCH 2/2] media: v4l2-ctrls: Document V4L2_CID_NOTIFY_GAIN_XXX controls

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add documentation for each of the controls

V4L2_CID_NOTIFY_GAIN_RED
V4L2_CID_NOTIFY_GAIN_GREENR
V4L2_CID_NOTIFY_GAIN_BLUE
V4L2_CID_NOTIFY_GAIN_GREENB

These controls are required by sensors that need to know what colour
gains will be applied to pixels by downstream processing (such as by
an ISP), though the sensor does not apply these gains itself.
