David PlowmanandKieran Bingham 0eddf9dc01 gstreamer: Add sensor-config property
The sensor-config property may optionally be specified to give the
outputSize and bitDepth of the SensorConfiguration that is applied to
the camera configuration. For example, use

libcamerasrc sensor-config="sensor/config,width=2304,height=1296,depth=10"

to request the 10-bit 2304x1296 mode of a sensor.

All three parameters, width, height and bit depth, must be present, or
it will issue a warning and revert to automatic mode selection (as if
there were no sensor-config at all).

If a mode is requested that doesn't exist then camera configuration
will fail and the pipeline won't start.

As future-proofing, the SensorConfiguration's binning, increment and
analog-crop parameters may be specified, though libcamera currently
ignores them.

Barnabás Pőcze 65db93f8f4 gstreamer: Be prepared when queueing request
The moment execution enters `Camera::queueRequest()`, an application must be
prepared to receive the corresponding `requestCompleted` signal. However,
the gstreamer element is currently not prepared: it queues the request,
takes a lock, then inserts into a list.

If the request completion handler acquires the lock right after queueing the
request, then it will not find the expected object in the list. Even potentially
encountering an empty list, running into undefined behaviour when trying
to pop the first element from it.

Fix that by queueing the request while the lock is held.

Julien VuillaumierandKieran Bingham 34c5cf2480 gstreamer: Add raw support to libcamerasrc stream-role property
The current definition of the stream-role property of libcamerasrc
element does not allow for the Raw (0) value to be assigned.
That property is used to query the pipeline handlers through
generateConfiguration(roles) to retrieve the formats exposed to
the user. Not being able to specify the raw stream-role, bayer
formats are not reported so can not be used for caps negotiation.

Adding value stream-role=raw enables usage of bayer GStreamer pipelines
like:

`gst-launch-1.0 libcamerasrc camera-name=<name> src::stream-role=raw !
    video/x-bayer, format=bggr16le ! ...`

- Implement GstElement::request-new-pad (multi stream)
commit 53a0d80af0 ("gstreamer: Added virtual functions needed to support request pads")

- Add framerate control
- Add framerate negotiation support
commit ccfe0a1af7 ("gstreamer: Provide framerate support for libcamerasrc")

- Add colorimetry support
commit fc9783acc6 ("gstreamer: Provide colorimetry <> ColorSpace mappings")

- Use unique names to select the camera devices
commit 2c93810ec1 ("gst: libcamerasrc: Add camera-name property")
(The property that is set here is fed into CameraManager::get()
eventually, ensuring we can select the camera devices by unique IDs.)

- Add GstVideoMeta support (strides and offsets)
commit 848a3017b8 ("gstreamer: Add GstVideoMeta support")

Jaslo ZiskaandLaurent Pinchart 36bec972d3 gstreamer: Fix reconfiguration condition check
gst_pad_peer_query_accept_caps() might only check if the caps are
acceptable with the peer element, but not recursively with all
downstream elements. If the reconfigure flag was set because the
pipeline downstream changed, gst_pad_peer_query_accept_caps() might still
return true, even though downstream can't handle the current caps, which
causes a not-negotiated error.

This commit fixes this issue by emitting a query event which
recursively checks with all downstream elements. Because at this point
we are only interested in whether the current caps are still acceptable,
use the currently used caps as a filter and then check if the query
returned empty caps.

Hou QiandKieran Bingham 4a277906a4 gstreamer: Fix libcamerasrc responding latency before setting caps
Whenever a downstream element queries latency, libcamerasrc will always reply,
even though it has not yet determined the latency.

However some downstream elements (e.g. glvideomixer/aggregator) will query the
latency before libcamerasrc sets the caps. When these elements get the latency,
they will start the caps negotiation. Since libcamerasrc has not yet determined
caps, invalid negotiation is performed and workflow is disrupted.

So, set latency to 'GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE' during initialization, and reply to the
query after libcamerasrc confirms the latency. At this time, libcamerasrc has also
completed caps negotiation and downstream elements work fine.

In addition, every time the src pad task stops, we reset the latency to
GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE to ensure that when next time task starts, the downstream
elements can generate out buffers after receiving the effective latency.

Then, if something tries to retrieve the boolean value, it will run into an
assertion failure:

  Assertion `type_ == details::control_type<std::remove_cv_t<T>>::value' failed.

Fix this by using the appropriately typed `Control<>` object when setting
the value in the `ControlList` as this ensures that the value will be
converted to the actual type of the control.

returns 2:4:5:4 instead of the expected 2:4:16:4 (bt601). This
causes negotiation error when the downstream element explicitly
expects bt601 colorimetry.

Minimal example to reproduce the issue is with a pipeline handler
that do not set the optional color space in the stream configuration,
for instance vimc or imx8-isi:
export LIBCAMERA_PIPELINES_MATCH_LIST="vimc,imx8-isi"
gst-launch-1.0 -v libcamerasrc ! video/x-raw,colorimetry=bt601 ! fakesink

Above pipeline fails to start. This change memorizes downstream required
transfer function when mapped libcamera transfer is Rec709 in
gst_libcamera_configure_stream_from_caps(), and restores the transfer
function in gst_libcamera_stream_formats_to_caps().

Jaslo ZiskaandKieran Bingham 27cece6653 gstreamer: Generate controls from control_ids_*.yaml files
This commit implements gstreamer controls for the libcamera element by
generating the controls from the control_ids_*.yaml files using a new
gen-gst-controls.py script. The appropriate meson files are also changed
to automatically run the script when building.

The gen-gst-controls.py script works similar to the gen-controls.py
script by parsing the control_ids_*.yaml files and generating C++ code
for each exposed control.
For the controls to be used as gstreamer properties the type for each
control needs to be translated to the appropriate glib type and a
GEnumValue is generated for each enum control. Then a
g_object_install_property(), _get_property() and _set_property()
function is generated for each control.
The vendor controls get prefixed with "$vendor-" in the final gstreamer
property name.

The C++ code generated by the gen-gst-controls.py script is written into
the template gstlibcamerasrc-controls.cpp.in file. The matching
gstlibcamerasrc-controls.h header defines the GstCameraControls class
which handles the installation of the gstreamer properties as well as
keeping track of the control values and setting and getting the
controls. The content of these functions is generated in the Python
script.

Finally the libcamerasrc element itself is edited to make use of the new
GstCameraControls class. The way this works is by defining a PROP_LAST
enum variant which is passed to the installProperties() function so the
properties are defined with the appropriate offset. When getting or
setting a property PROP_LAST is subtracted from the requested property
to translate the control back into a libcamera::controls:: enum
variant.

Hou QiandKieran Bingham c9152bad5c gstreamer: Fix width and height range handling
This changes is fixing critical error message
"gst_value_set_int_range_step: assertion 'start < end' failed" observed
when building GStreamer caps from a stream configuration whose size
range holds a single size.

GStreamer range step definition requires distinct min and max values
definitions, otherwise above error message is output.

libcamera SizeRange instance may return a single size leading to
identical min and max values. Add a conditional check where the min and
max of the range are distinct during iterating the supported sizes for
each pixelformat.

To prevent appending structures that are already expressed with this
update, gst_caps_merge_structure() is used in place of
gst_caps_append_structure().

Nicolas DufresneandKieran Bingham 0c9862d6e3 gstreamer: allocator: Ensure camera manager stay alive
Without the camera manager, it is not possible to cleanly delete the
FrameBufferAllocator object. Keep the camera manager alive until all the
memory object have been released.

A shared_ptr to the CameraManager is introduced which is itself stored
as a plain pointer and allocated and released explicitly. When more
than one C++ member is required, this can be refactored to use a new C++
class, but the struct _GstLibcameraAllocator is allocated and freed by
glib, so it does not have automatic destruction presently.

Nicolas DufresneandKieran Bingham 04f1f20337 gstreamer: pool: Replace GstAtomicQueue with deque and mutex
The GstAtomicQueue only supports 2 threads, one pushing, and one
popping. We pop and push on error cases and we may have multiple threads
downstream returning buffer (using tee), which breaks this assumption.

On top of which, the release function, that notifies when the queue goes
from empty to not-empty relies on a racy empty check. The downstream
thread that does this check is effectively concurrent with our thread
calling acquire().

Fix this by replacing the GstAtomicQueue with a std::deque, and protect
access to that using the object lock.

the comments can easily get out of sync with the file name when files
are renamed, and copy & paste during development have often lead to
incorrect names being used to start with.

Readers of the source code are expected to know which file they're
looking it. Drop the file name from the header comment blocks in all
remaining locations that were not caught by the automated script as they
are out of sync with the file name.

The change was generated with the following script:

----------------------------------------

declare -rA patterns=(

	['cpp']=' \* '
	['h']=' \* '

	for file in $files ; do
		name=$(basename ${file})
		sed -i "s/^\(${pattern}\)${name} - /\1/" "$file"
	done

This misses several files that are out of sync with the comment block
header. Those will be addressed separately and manually.
