Subject: [PATCH v12 27/86] media: uapi: Add V4L2_CID_BINNING control for binning configuration
Date: Thu,  9 Apr 2026 23:14:02 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260409201501.975242-28-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260409201501.975242-1-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com>

Add V4L2_CID_BINNING control for configuring binning and enumerating a
camera sensor's binning capabilities. The control combines horizontal and
vertical binning into a single control as the two are generally related.

New drivers should use this control to configure binning.

+Binning has traditionally been configured using :ref:`the compose selection
+rectangle <v4l2-selection-targets-table>`. The :ref:`V4L2_CID_BINNING
+<image_source_control_binning_factors>` control is also available for binning
+configuration and users should use it when it's available. Drivers supporting
+the control shall also support the compose rectangle, albeit the rectangle may
+be read-only when the control is present.

+Binning isn't affected by flipping.
