But that's for\nlater.\n\nThanks\n   j\n\nv2->v3:\n- Fix spelling in commit messages as suggested by Paul and collect tags\n\n- [1/5]:\n  - ControlInfoMap::validate()\n  - Rework ControlInfoMap documentation as suggested by Laurent\n\n- [2/5]:\n  - Moved test earlier and simplified code\n\n- [3/5]\n  - Drop 'enum class' and use Laurent's suggested naming\n  - Simplify de-serializer code that uses a localIdMap as suggested by Laurent\n\n- [4/5]\n  - Change IPAIPU3::init() prototype\n\n       init(libcamera.IPASettings settings,\n            libcamera.IPACameraSensorInfo sensorInfo,\n            libcamera.ControlInfoMap sensorControls)\n\n  - Move exposureTime_ initialization in PH back to initControls()\n\nv1->v2:\n- [1/5]. [2/5], [3/5]: new patches\n- [4/5]\n  - Do not remove IPASettings but include it it IPAInitInfo\n  - Rework a todo item as suggested by Laurent\n  - Remove an non necessay initialization\n - [5/5]\n  - Collect tags\n\n\n\n\n\nJacopo Mondi (5):\n  libcamera: controls: Create ControlInfoMap with ControlIdMap\n  test: control serialization: Test lookup by ControlId\n  libcamera: controls: Use ControlIdMap in deserialization\n  libcamera: ipu3: Initialize controls in the IPA\n  ipa: ipu3: Tidy-up includes\n\n include/libcamera/controls.h                  | 13 ++-\n .../libcamera/internal/control_serializer.h   |  1 +\n include/libcamera/internal/v4l2_device.h      |  1 +\n include/libcamera/ipa/ipa_controls.h          |  9 +-\n include/libcamera/ipa/ipu3.mojom              |  5 +-\n include/libcamera/ipa/raspberrypi.h           | 40 ++++----\n src/ipa/ipu3/ipu3.cpp                         | 78 ++++++++++++++-\n src/ipa/ipu3/ipu3_agc.cpp                     |  2 +-\n src/ipa/ipu3/ipu3_agc.h                       |  3 -\n src/ipa/ipu3/ipu3_awb.cpp                     |  3 +-\n src/libcamera/control_serializer.cpp          | 66 +++++++++++--\n src/libcamera/controls.cpp                    | 94 +++++-------------\n src/libcamera/ipa_controls.cpp                | 29 ++++++\n src/libcamera/pipeline/ipu3/ipu3.cpp          | 98 ++++++++-----------\n src/libcamera/pipeline/rkisp1/rkisp1.cpp      |  3 +-\n src/libcamera/pipeline/uvcvideo/uvcvideo.cpp  |  2 +-\n src/libcamera/pipeline/vimc/vimc.cpp          |  2 +-\n src/libcamera/v4l2_device.cpp                 |  3 +-\n test/serialization/control_serialization.cpp  |  9 ++\n .../ipa_data_serializer_test.cpp              | 14 +--\n 20 files changed, 292 insertions(+), 183 deletions(-)\n\n--\n2.32.0"
