Patche 12/17 follows with\nmigrating the IPU3 IPA module to replace its custom RGB class with the\ngeneric version, enabling usage of the new RGB class in the libipa API\nin patch 13/17. Patches 14/17 to 16/17 are further code simpflications\nthanks to the new helpers. Finally, patch 17/17 is a drive-by extension\nof a comment to record information I discovered while working on the\nseries.\n\nFurther usage of the RGB, Vector and Matrix classes are likely possible.\nIn particular, I have limited changes to the Raspberry Pi IPA module to\nthe minimum required due to the updates in colours.h.\n\nPlease see individual patches for detailed changelogs.\n\nLaurent Pinchart (17):\n ipa: libipa: vector: Add mutable x(), y() and z() accessors\n ipa: libipa: vector: Add r(), g() and b() accessors\n ipa: libipa: vector: Add scalar constructor\n ipa: libipa: vector: Add copy constructor and assignment operator\n ipa: libipa: vector: Rename the dot product operator*() to dot()\n ipa: libipa: vector: Generalize arithmetic operators\n ipa: libipa: vector: Add missing binary arithemtic operators\n ipa: libipa: vector: Add compound assignment operators\n ipa: libipa: vector: Add element-wise min() and max() functions\n ipa: libipa: vector: Add sum() function\n test: libipa: Add Vector class test\n ipa: ipu3: awb: Replace Awb::RGB class with ipa::RGB\n ipa: libipa: colour: Use the RGB class to model RGB values\n ipa: libipa: colour: Use Vector and Matrix for linear algebra\n ipa: rkisp1: awb: Use RGB class to store colour gains\n ipa: rkisp1: awb: Use Vector and Matrix for linear algebra\n ipa: rkisp1: awb: Expand comment\n\n src/ipa/ipu3/algorithms/agc.cpp | 14 +-\n src/ipa/ipu3/algorithms/awb.cpp | 37 +--\n src/ipa/ipu3/algorithms/awb.h | 18 +-\n src/ipa/libipa/colours.cpp | 40 ++--\n src/ipa/libipa/colours.h | 6 +-\n src/ipa/libipa/vector.cpp | 264 ++++++++++++++++++---\n src/ipa/libipa/vector.h | 254 ++++++++++++++++----\n src/ipa/rkisp1/algorithms/awb.cpp | 127 +++++-----\n src/ipa/rkisp1/ipa_context.cpp | 31 +--\n src/ipa/rkisp1/ipa_context.h | 20 +-\n src/ipa/rpi/controller/rpi/agc_channel.cpp | 21 +-\n test/ipa/libipa/meson.build | 2 +\n test/ipa/libipa/vector.cpp | 100 ++++++++\n 13 files changed, 668 insertions(+), 266 deletions(-)\n create mode 100644 test/ipa/libipa/vector.cpp\n\n\nbase-commit: d5217b16020c659145f9d6dbf5849129b8500967" }
