Image Source Control Reference
******************************
The Image Source control class is intended for low-level control of
image source devices such as image sensors. The devices feature an
analogue to digital converter and a bus transmitter to transmit the
image data out of the device.
.. _image-source-control-id:
Image Source Control IDs
========================
``V4L2_CID_IMAGE_SOURCE_CLASS (class)``
The IMAGE_SOURCE class descriptor.
``V4L2_CID_VBLANK (integer)``
Vertical blanking. The idle period after every frame during which no
image data is produced. The unit of vertical blanking is a line.
Every line has length of the image width plus horizontal blanking at
the pixel rate defined by ``V4L2_CID_PIXEL_RATE`` control in the
same sub-device.
``V4L2_CID_HBLANK (integer)``
Horizontal blanking. The idle period after every line of image data
during which no image data is produced. The unit of horizontal
blanking is pixels.
``V4L2_CID_ANALOGUE_GAIN (integer)``
Analogue gain is gain affecting all colour components in the pixel
matrix. The gain operation is performed in the analogue domain
before A/D conversion.
``V4L2_CID_TEST_PATTERN_RED (integer)``
Test pattern red colour component.
``V4L2_CID_TEST_PATTERN_GREENR (integer)``
Test pattern green (next to red) colour component.
``V4L2_CID_TEST_PATTERN_BLUE (integer)``
Test pattern blue colour component.
``V4L2_CID_TEST_PATTERN_GREENB (integer)``
Test pattern green (next to blue) colour component.
``V4L2_CID_UNIT_CELL_SIZE (struct)``
This control returns the unit cell size in nanometers. The struct
:c:type:`v4l2_area` provides the width and the height in separate
fields to take into consideration asymmetric pixels.
This control does not take into consideration any possible hardware
binning.
The unit cell consists of the whole area of the pixel, sensitive and
non-sensitive.
This control is required for automatic calibration of sensors/cameras.
.. c:type:: v4l2_area
.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_area
:header-rows: 0
:stub-columns: 0
:widths: 1 1 2
* - __u32
- ``width``
- Width of the area.
* - __u32
- ``height``
- Height of the area.
``V4L2_CID_NOTIFY_GAINS (integer array)``
The sensor is notified what gains will be applied to the different
colour channels by subsequent processing (such as by an ISP). The
sensor is merely informed of these values in case it performs
processing that requires them, but it does not apply them itself to
the output pixels.
Currently it is defined only for Bayer sensors, and is an array
control taking 4 gain values, being the gains for each of the
Bayer channels. The gains are always in the order B, Gb, Gr and R,
irrespective of the exact Bayer order of the sensor itself.
The use of an array allows this control to be extended to sensors
with, for example, non-Bayer CFAs (colour filter arrays).
The units for the gain values are linear, with the default value
representing a gain of exactly 1.0. For example, if this default value
is reported as being (say) 128, then a value of 192 would represent
a gain of exactly 1.5.
