    "content": "This series aims to enable async post-processing of streams\nin the HAL layer.\n\nPatch [1-5]/9 introduces basic plumbing preparation to run\npost-processing async. The idea here is to send enough information\nfor the post-processor and retrieve it back(via signal mechanism)\nto complete capture results and sending it back to framework.\n\nPatch 6/9 adds a queue.\nWhen a request requires post-processing it is first added to a queue.\nBefore queueing, a lot of context information is saved in form of\nCamera3RequestDescriptor struct. The struct is then pushed to the queue.\nWhen the post-processing is completed,\nCameraDevice::streamProcessingComplete() is called and the status of\ncorresponding Camera3RequestDescriptor is updated(failed/succeeded).\n\nAfter that sendQueuedCaptureResults() inspects the queue to check if\nany capture results are ready to be sent to the framework. If yes, it\nshall send it and de-queue it from the queue.\n\nPatch 7/9 is a simple move of buffer mapping from CameraStream to\nCameraDevice.\n\nPatch 8/9 adds a worker class and a thread. The worker will be used to\nPostProcessor::process() in that thread.\n\nPatch 9/9 is a really a RFC which temporarily address one of \\todo\nin 8/9.\n\n--\nChanges in v2:\n - Move Camera3RequestDescriptor struct out of CameraDevice private(2/9)\n - Pass Camera3RequestDescriptor pointer as a context to PostProcessor\n   class and emit it back via processComplete signal.\n - RFC patch (needs some discussion)\n---\n\nUmang Jain (9):\n  android: camera_stream: Pass FrameBuffer pointer instead of reference\n  camera_device: Remove private scope of Camera3RequestDescriptor\n  android: post_processor: Plumb down the process() with context\n  android: post_processor: Notify post processing completion status\n  android: camera_stream: Query post-processing status\n  android: camera_device: Add a queue for sending capture results\n  android: camera_device: Move buffer mapping for post processing\n  android: camera_stream: Run post-processor in a separate thread\n  RFC: Stop PostProcessor when camera is stopped\n\n src/android/camera_device.cpp            | 146 +++++++++++++++++++++--\n src/android/camera_device.h              |  56 ++++++---\n src/android/camera_stream.cpp            |  47 +++++---\n src/android/camera_stream.h              |  57 ++++++++-\n src/android/jpeg/encoder.h               |   2 +-\n src/android/jpeg/encoder_libjpeg.cpp     |   4 +-\n src/android/jpeg/encoder_libjpeg.h       |   2 +-\n src/android/jpeg/post_processor_jpeg.cpp |  14 ++-\n src/android/jpeg/post_processor_jpeg.h   |   7 +-\n src/android/jpeg/thumbnailer.cpp         |   4 +-\n src/android/jpeg/thumbnailer.h           |   2 +-\n src/android/post_processor.h             |  15 ++-\n src/android/yuv/post_processor_yuv.cpp   |  25 ++--\n src/android/yuv/post_processor_yuv.h     |   7 +-\n 14 files changed, 314 insertions(+), 74 deletions(-)"
