Those statistics are obtained from the "ipu3-imgu [01] 3a +stat" metadata capture video nodes, using the :c:type:`v4l2_meta_format` +interface. They are formatted as described by the :c:type:`ipu3_uapi_stats_3a` +structure. + +The statistics collected are AWB (Auto-white balance) RGBS (Red, Green, Blue and +Saturation measure) cells, AWB filter response, AF (Auto-focus) filter response, +and AE (Auto-exposure) histogram. + +The struct :c:type:`ipu3_uapi_4a_config` saves all configurable parameters. + +.. code-block:: c + + struct ipu3_uapi_stats_3a { + struct ipu3_uapi_awb_raw_buffer awb_raw_buffer; + struct ipu3_uapi_ae_raw_buffer_aligned ae_raw_buffer[IPU3_UAPI_MAX_STRIPES]; + struct ipu3_uapi_af_raw_buffer af_raw_buffer; + struct ipu3_uapi_awb_fr_raw_buffer awb_fr_raw_buffer; + struct ipu3_uapi_4a_config stats_4a_config; + __u32 ae_join_buffers; + __u8 padding[28]; + struct ipu3_uapi_stats_3a_bubble_info_per_stripe stats_3a_bubble_per_stripe; + struct ipu3_uapi_ff_status stats_3a_status; + }; + +.. ipu3_uapi_params + +Pipeline parameters +=================== + +The pipeline parameters are passed to the "ipu3-imgu [01] parameters" metadata +output video nodes, using the :c:type:`v4l2_meta_format` interface.
