    "content": "Use the difference between againMin + 1 and againMin as the againMinStep\nvalue. This is better than a heuristic of 1% of the whole range, which\ndoesn't match the actual allowed values by the V4L2 control, especially\nfor sensors with an exponential gain model (that map the control values\nto equal-sized dB increments).\n\nWithout this change I saw a lot of oscillations with IMX678. While the\noscillations did go away after I narrowed the gain control to only map\nto 0 - 30dB of analogue gain, and ignore the 30.3 - 72dB digital gain\nrange, I still think we should use the minimum step allowed by V4L2\nrather than a heuristic of 1%.\n\nEven for sensors with a linear gain model like IMX219, that allow\nsetting more than 100 values, this should make the AGC algorithm\nsmoother.\n\nSigned-off-by: Jai Luthra <jai.luthra@ideasonboard.com>\n---\n src/ipa/simple/soft_simple.cpp | 5 ++---\n 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)",
