No functional changes.\n\nChanges in v4:\n- Split out commit \"debayer_egl: Sync output buffer after processing stats\"\n into its own series and rebased this series on top:\n https://patchwork.libcamera.org/cover/26788/\n- Added performance benchmarks\n- Move dmabuf_import_failed_ variable to eGLImage, ensuring it gets reset.\n- Added commit to ensure input buffer doesn't get mapped twice.\n\nChanges in v3:\n- Split up changes to createTexture2D() and eGLImage constructor\n into two commits.\n- Added field to remember dmabuf import fails - and promote the relevant\n log to Info.\n- Reordered and slightly extended commit message for \"egl: Demote an\n error log to debug\"\n- Fixed some CI / linter errors\n\nChanges in v2:\n- Instead of adding parameters to createInputDMABufTexture2D(), remove\n them from createTexture2D instead.\n- Use std::optional<DmaSyncer> to make the code easier to understand.\n- Move error log level change into its own commit.\n\nRobert Mader (5):\n egl: Add GL format parameter to eGLImage constructor\n egl: Remove some parameters from createTexture2D()\n egl: eGLImage: Add flag to remember dmabuf import fails\n libcamera: swstats_cpu: Take MappedFrameBuffer in processFrame()\n debayer_egl: Implement dmabuf import for input buffers\n\n include/libcamera/internal/egl.h | 9 ++-\n .../internal/software_isp/swstats_cpu.h | 2 +-\n src/libcamera/egl.cpp | 32 +++++++--\n src/libcamera/software_isp/debayer_egl.cpp | 68 +++++++++++++------\n src/libcamera/software_isp/debayer_egl.h | 2 +-\n src/libcamera/software_isp/swstats_cpu.cpp | 11 +--\n 6 files changed, 82 insertions(+), 42 deletions(-)" }
