We already have a V4L2_CID_GAIN control and a V4L2_CID_CHROMA_GAIN control in the user controls class. I'd like to document how those controls and the new proposed gain controls interact. At first glance they don't interact at all, devices should not implement both, the user class gain controls are higher- level than the controls you proposed - this should still be documented though, to make sure driver and application authors will not get confused. A couple of quick questions about the new controls. Do we also need a common gain controls for monochrome sensors ? Is the offset always common for the 4 channels, or could devices implement a per-channel offset ? Is the offset applied before or after the gains ? How does it relate to black level compensation ? > I think these controls can fit under the image processing controls class > --- image processing and not image source since these can also have a > digital implementation e.g. in an ISP. Sounds good to me. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
