[PATCH v12 04/15] media: uapi: Add controls for Mali-C55 ISP

Thu Oct 2 03:18:23 PDT 2025
Add definitions and documentation for the custom control that will
be needed by the Mali-C55 ISP driver. This will be a read only
bitmask of the driver's capabilities, informing userspace of which
blocks are fitted and which are absent.

Changes in v12:
- Removed _FITTED suffix from control value names
- Specified bitmask for control name
- Used (1 << n) instead of BIT(n) in uapi header
- Updated comment to reserve 16 controls for driver
Changes in v11:
- None
Changes in v10:
- None
Changes in v9:
- New patch

+Arm Mali-C55 ISP driver
+=======================
+
+The Arm Mali-C55 ISP driver implements a single driver-specific control:
+
+``V4L2_CID_MALI_C55_CAPABILITIES (bitmask)``
+ Detail the capabilities of the ISP by giving detail about the fitted blocks.
+
+ .. flat-table:: Bitmask meaning definitions
+ :header-rows: 1
+ :widths: 2 4 8
+
+ * - Bit
+ - Macro
+ - Meaning
+ * - 0
+ - MALI_C55_GPS_PONG
+ - Pong configuration space is fitted in the ISP
+ * - 1
+ - MALI_C55_GPS_WDR
+ - WDR Framestitch, offset and gain is fitted in the ISP
+ * - 2
+ - MALI_C55_GPS_COMPRESSION
+ - Temper compression is fitted in the ISP
+ * - 3
+ - MALI_C55_GPS_TEMPER
+ - Temper is fitted in the ISP
+ * - 4
+ - MALI_C55_GPS_SINTER_LITE
+ - Sinter Lite is fitted in the ISP instead of the full Sinter version
+ * - 5
+ - MALI_C55_GPS_SINTER
+ - Sinter is fitted in the ISP
+ * - 6
+ - MALI_C55_GPS_IRIDIX_LTM
+ - Iridix local tone mappine is fitted in the ISP
+ * - 7
+ - MALI_C55_GPS_IRIDIX_GTM
+ - Iridix global tone mapping is fitted in the ISP
+ * - 8
+ - MALI_C55_GPS_CNR
+ - Colour noise reduction is fitted in the ISP
+ * - 9
+ - MALI_C55_GPS_FRSCALER
+ - The full resolution pipe scaler is fitted in the ISP
+ * - 10
+ - MALI_C55_GPS_DS_PIPE
+ - The downscale pipe is fitted in the ISP
+
+ The Mali-C55 ISP can be configured in a number of ways to include or exclude
+ blocks which may not be necessary. This control provides a way for the
+ driver to communicate to userspace which of the blocks are fitted in the
+ design.
