LF-18392 libcamera: software_isp: debayer_egl: Demote unsupported format log to Debug

26813 diff mbox series

From: Hou Qi <qi.hou@nxp.com>

DebayerEGL::getInputConfig() logs at Error level when it encounters an
unsupported input format. This function is called during format
enumeration from the simple pipeline handler's tryPipeline(), which
iterates over all pixel formats reported by the video capture device,
including non-Bayer formats such as UYVY and YUYV. The caller already
handles the failure gracefully by checking the return value and falling
back to direct passthrough when the debayer returns no output formats.

Since encountering a non-Bayer format during enumeration is expected
behaviour rather than an error condition, demote the log message from
Error to Debug. This aligns with DebayerCpu::getInputConfig(), which
logs at Info level in the same situation.

Hi Qi,

I think we can drop "LF-18392" in the $SUBJECT, but that could be while
applying if nothing else is needed.

I've been 'annoyed' by this print quite a bit too, so I also favour
reducing the output.

I think originally we wanted to be sure we saw if the formats weren't
supported, but indeed this is currently very verbose at startup.
