| Series | vimc: debayer: Add support for ARGB format | expand |
Hi, Thanks for the patch I don't know how real devices handle ARGB formats, I wonder if it should be the part of the debayer.

I would change the commit log to: Add support for V4L2_PIX_FMT_RGB24 format in the debayer and set the alpha channel to constant 255.

Hi! qcam tries to support BA24 as it is one of the formats that vimc lists as its supported formats wih --list-formats. Shouldn't BA24 be possible to capture with vimc? If yes, which entity should support it, if not debayer?

At the hardware level, the de-bayering block usually produces RGB with 8 or more bits per colour components (so 3xn, 24 bits for 8-bit depths). The conversion to 32-bit ARGB usually happens at the DMA engine level, in the formatter right in front of the DMA engine. Ideally the vimc pipeline should expose the same. From a performance point of view, it makes little sense to process the image in vimc through multiple steps. I think it would be best to generate the final image directly at the output of the pipeline. > > On 28.05.20 20:57, Kaaira Gupta wrote: > > > Running qcam for pixelformat 0x34324142 showed that vimc debayer does > > > not support it.

Shouldn't BA24 be > possible to capture with vimc? Hi, Just to clarify, when listing the supported formats of a video node, the node lists the formats that the video node as an independent media entity support. It does not mean that the 'camera' as a whole (that is, the media topology graph) supports all the formats that the video node lists. When interacting with a video node or a subdevice node, one interacts only with that specific entity. In the case of vimc, the RGB video node as an independent entity supports BA24 so the format appears in the list of the its supported formats. But since the Debayer does not support it, the format can not be generated by the entire vimc topology. This is not a bug.

Yes, we had -EPIPE, and that is what I think we were trying to resolve. How would userspace be expected to detect what formats to use ? Should the available formats on the capture node depend on the current linking of the media graph? Otherwise, to know what formats are supported - userspace must first 'get a list of formats' then try to 'set' the formats to know what is possible? Or should (given VIMC is quite specialist anyway) userspace 'just know' what is capable all the same? That's possibly fine, as we can simply remove support for the ARGB formats from the libcamera pipeline handler if it is never expected to be supported. But then as a further question - what formats will we expect VIMC to support? VIVID has a (very) wide range of formats. Would we ever expect VIMC to be as configurable? Or is the scope limited to what we have today? -- Regards Kieran > Regards, > Helen > >> >> Hope t was helpful, >> Dafna >> >>> >>> If yes, which entity should support it, if not debayer?

Is here a valid configuration for the vimc pipeline that produces BA24 ? I agree that not all pipeline configurations need to support every format, but we shouldn't report a format that can't be produced at all. This being said, and as discussed before, the de-bayering subdev should just produce MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB888_1X24, and the video node should then implement the RGB pixel formats.

So you mean that the video node should support it so when it receive RGB format in the source pad it converts it to BA24 or BX24 ? It makes sense. I guess both BA24 and BX24 can be added, I see in the pixfmt-rgb.html doc that probably the control V4L2_CID_ALPHA_COMPONENT should then be added. > >>>> This is also my understanding. >>>> >>>> You should have an -EPIPE error when start streaming though, it >>>> shouldn't fail silently. >>> >>> Yes, we had -EPIPE, and that is what I think we were trying to resolve. >>> >>> How would userspace be expected to detect what formats to use ?

Yes, there is a doc file that explains that it should be done in a "bottom-up" way ,that is, starting with configuring the sensor, then adjusting the debayer to the sensor output, then adjusting the scaler to the debayer outout and then adjusting the video node output to the scaler output. One should also use the 'try' version of the setting at the stage of adjusting the final configuration.

Yes. If you think about an equivalent hardware pipeline, the device would carry 24-bit RGB between the processing blocks, and only when the data reaches the output formatter (usually bundled with the DMA engine) would it be converted to one of the multiple RGB pixel formats. I think vimc should mimic that behaviour when it comes to pipeline configuration. When it comes to generating data (or processing it, I believe vimc supports, or aims to support, memory-to-memory processing), we have two options: - In the general case, data generated by the TPG would be processed by the individual blocks in the pipeline until it reaches the capture video node. To support processing steps that may generate more, less or an equal amount of data as they consume, we would need to allocate buffers between all the processing blocks. Those buffers don't need to be full frame buffers though, they can be a few lines only, generating the test pattern and processing it a few lines at a time. This architecture would also support memory-to-memory processing. - When using the TPG, we could optimize the implementation by generating data in the capture buffer directly, in the format configured on the video node, without processing the data in every block. The drawback is that processing artifacts (such as the artifacts due to colour interpolation or scaling) wouldn't be generated, the captured image would be cleaner than in a real hardware implementation. Whether that is an issue or not is for us to decide. If vimc doesn't need to support memory-to-memory processing, we could implement the optimized behaviour only. > It makes sense.

Yes, V4L2_CID_ALPHA_COMPONENT would need to be added (on the video node) to produce BA24, otherwise the alpha component would have a fixed value. > >>>> This is also my understanding. > >>>> > >>>> You should have an -EPIPE error when start streaming though, it > >>>> shouldn't fail silently. > >>> > >>> Yes, we had -EPIPE, and that is what I think we were trying to resolve. > >>> > >>> How would userspace be expected to detect what formats to use ?

The video node will happily accept a VIDIOC_S_FMT call that sets a pixel format not compatible with the media bus format at the input of the video node. The error will only be raised at stream on time. The VIDIOC_ENUMFMT extension that allows enumerating pixel formats supported for a given media bus code is the only working option. > >> At the moment yes. > >> > >>> Or should (given VIMC is quite specialist anyway) userspace 'just know' > >>> what is capable all the same? > >>> > >>> That's possibly fine, as we can simply remove support for the ARGB > >>> formats from the libcamera pipeline handler if it is never expected to > >>> be supported. > >> > >> With the configfs feature, you could build a topology with sensor->capture, > >> and ARGB would be supported. > >> > >>> But then as a further question - what formats will we expect VIMC to > >>> support?
