Subject: [PATCH 1/6] media: uapi: v4l2-isp: Add extensible statistics
Date: Tue, 05 May 2026 16:12:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260505-extensible-stats-v1-1-e16f326b8dad@ideasonboard.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260505-extensible-stats-v1-0-e16f326b8dad@ideasonboard.com>

From: Antoine Bouyer <antoine.bouyer@nxp.com>

Extend the v4l2-isp extensible format introduced for isp parameters buffers
to the support buffers of ISP statistic.

Like for ISP configuration purpose, that will help supporting various ISP
hardware versions reporting different statistics data with less impact on
userspace.

Rename all 'v4l2_isp_params' types to generic 'v4l2_isp' types to
prepare to use them for statistics as well and maintain the existing
types for compatibility with existing userspace only.
