Naushir Patuck 726e9274ea pipeline: ipa: raspberrypi: Refactor and move the Raspberry Pi code
Split the Raspberry Pi pipeline handler and IPA source code into common
and VC4/BCM2835 specific file structures.

For the pipeline handler, the common code files now live in
src/libcamera/pipeline/rpi/common/
and the VC4-specific files in src/libcamera/pipeline/rpi/vc4/.

For the IPA, the common code files now live in
src/ipa/rpi/{cam_helper,controller}/
and the vc4 specific files in src/ipa/rpi/vc4/. With this change, the
camera tuning files are now installed under share/libcamera/ipa/rpi/vc4/.

To build the pipeline and IPA, the meson configuration options have now
changed from "raspberrypi" to "rpi/vc4":

meson setup build -Dipas=rpi/vc4 -Dpipelines=rpi/vc4

libcamera for the Raspberry Pi

Raspberry Pi provides a fully featured pipeline handler and control algorithms (IPAs, or "Image Processing Algorithms") to work with libcamera. Support is included for all existing Raspberry Pi camera modules.

libcamera for the Raspberry Pi allows users to:

  1. Use their existing Raspberry Pi cameras.
  2. Change the tuning of the image processing for their Raspberry Pi cameras.
  3. Alter or amend the control algorithms (such as AGC/AEC, AWB or any others) that control the sensor and ISP.
  4. Implement their own custom control algorithms.
  5. Supply new tunings and/or algorithms for completely new sensors.

How to install and run libcamera on the Raspberry Pi
