    "content": "Based on:\n[PATCH v5 00/10] libcamera: camera_sensor: Make validation more strict\n\nThis series addresses mainly 3 things, in order to grow the Camera HAL by\ninstrumenting the IPU3 pipeline handler to provide the required information.\n\n- Patches [1/12] -> [5/12]\n  Register the ExposureTime control in the IPU3 pipeline handler\n  to be able to register the EXPOSURE_TIME_RANGE static metadata in the HAL.\n  Reports the default exposure time and collects it as EXPOSURE_TIME dynamic\n  metadata in the Camera HAL.\n\n-Patches [5/12] -> [10/12]\n  Register the ScalerCropMaximum property and handle the ScalerCrop\n  property in the IPU3 pipeline handler to be able to register\n  the MAX_DIGITAL_ZOOM static metadata and to handle the SCALER_CROP_REGION\n  control and dynamic metadata.\n\n- Patches [11/12] and [12/12]\n  Fixes for the android.hardware.camera2.cts.CaptureRequestTest CTS test\n  module. The last patch specifically adds in bulk a lot of dynamic metadata\n  which we didn't report. As reported in the commit message, handling\n  MAX_FRAME_DURATION would fix all tests in that module (2 on 22 failing with\n  this series applied).\n\nAs a bonus, it is not possible to switch between the front and the back camera\nin the stock ChromeOS camera application.\n\nThanks\n   j\n\nJacopo Mondi (12):\n  libcamera: CameraSensor: Mention V4L2 in get/setControls()\n  libcamera: camera_sensor: Make V4L2_CID_EXPOSURE mandatory\n  libcamera: ipu3: Register Exposure control\n  android: camera_device: Register EXPOSURE_TIME_RANGE\n  android: camera_device: Report EXPOSURE_TIME\n  libcamera: ipu3: Initialize ScalerCropMaximum property\n  libcamera: ipu3: Register ScalerCrop control\n  android: camera_device: Register MAX_DIGITAL_ZOOM\n  libcamera: ipu3: Handle ScalerCrop\n  android: camera_device: Handle SCALER_CROP_REGION\n  android: camera_device: Support AWB_AUTO\n  android: camera_device: Report the required dynamic metadata\n\n Documentation/sensor_driver_requirements.rst |  12 +-\n src/android/camera_device.cpp                | 234 +++++++++++++++----\n src/android/camera_device.h                  |   2 +\n src/android/camera_worker.h                  |   1 +\n src/libcamera/camera_sensor.cpp              |  25 +-\n src/libcamera/pipeline/ipu3/ipu3.cpp         | 183 ++++++++++++++-\n 6 files changed, 388 insertions(+), 68 deletions(-)\n\n--\n2.29.2"
