Video encoding, e.g. encoding multiple buffers in parallel. 2. Clients requesting a single buffer - e.g. in multi-stream scenarios. Thus allow buffer counts between 1 and 32 buffers - following the default maximum from vb2 core - while keeping the default to the previous 4. While on it mark the config as adjusted when appropriate. Signed-off-by: Robert Mader Reviewed-by: Milan Zamazal --- Changes in v3: 1. Adopeted code cleanup suggestion - no change in behavior. 2. Split out change of kNumInternalBuffers. 3. Minor commit message changes. Changes since v1 with title "pipeline: simple: Allow buffer counts from 1 to 16 for swISP" 1: Cover all cases, not just the swISP one. 2: Increase maximum to 32 to match vb2 core. 3: Change constant naming to better match similar ones. 4: Bump kNumInternalBuffers to 4. --- src/libcamera/pipeline/simple/simple.cpp | 18 ++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/libcamera/pipeline/simple/simple.cpp b/src/libcamera/pipeline/simple/simple.cpp index c816cffc9..2dcba04ec 100644 --- a/src/libcamera/pipeline/simple/simple.cpp +++ b/src/libcamera/pipeline/simple/simple.cpp @@ -378,6 +378,9 @@ public: const Transform &combinedTransform() const { return combinedTransform_; } private: + static constexpr unsigned int kNumBuffersDefault = 4; + static constexpr unsigned int kNumBuffersMax = 32; + /* * The SimpleCameraData instance is guaranteed to be valid as long as * the corresponding Camera instance is valid.
