[media] V4L: Add V4L2_PIX_FMT_S5C_UYVY_JPG fourcc definition
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This patch adds definition of the Samsung S5C73M3 camera specific
image format. V4L2_PIX_FMT_S5C_UYVY_JPG is a two-planar format,
the  first plane contains interleaved UYVY and JPEG data followed
by meta-data. The second plane contains additional meta-data needed
for extracting JPEG and UYVY data stream from the first plane.

<entry>Two-planar format used by Samsung S5C73MX cameras. The
first plane contains interleaved JPEG and UYVY image data, followed by meta data
in form of an array of offsets to the UYVY data blocks. The actual pointer array
follows immediately the interleaved JPEG/UYVY data, the number of entries in
this array equals the height of the UYVY image. Each entry is a 4-byte unsigned
integer in big endian order and it's an offset to a single pixel line of the
UYVY image. The first plane can start either with JPEG or UYVY data chunk. The
size of a single UYVY block equals the UYVY image's width multiplied by 2. The
size of a JPEG chunk depends on the image and can vary with each line.
<para>The second plane, at an offset of 4084 bytes, contains a 4-byte offset to
the pointer array in the first plane. This offset is followed by a 4-byte value
indicating size of the pointer array. All numbers in the second plane are also
in big endian order. Remaining data in the second plane is undefined. The
information in the second plane allows to easily find location of the pointer
array, which can be different for each frame. The size of the pointer array is
constant for given UYVY image height.</para>
<para>In order to extract UYVY and JPEG frames an application can initially set
a data pointer to the start of first plane and then add an offset from the first
entry of the pointers table. Such a pointer indicates start of an UYVY image
pixel line. Whole UYVY line can be copied to a separate buffer. These steps
should be repeated for each line, i.e. the number of entries in the pointer
array. Anything what's in between the UYVY lines is JPEG data and should be
concatenated to form the JPEG stream. </para>
