icamerasrc

This repository supports MIPI cameras through the IPU6/IPU6EP/IPU6SE on Intel Tigerlake/Alderlake/Jasperlake platforms. There are 4 repositories that provide the complete setup:

• https://github.com/intel/ipu6-drivers - kernel drivers for the IPU and sensors
• https://github.com/intel/ipu6-camera-bins - IPU firmware and proprietary image processing libraries
• https://github.com/intel/ipu6-camera-hal - HAL for processing of images in userspace
• https://github.com/intel/icamerasrc/tree/icamerasrc_slim_api (branch:icamerasrc_slim_api) - Gstreamer src plugin

Content of this repository:

• gstreamer src plugin 'icamerasrc'

Build instructions:

• Prerequisites: ipu6-camera-bins and ipu6-camera-hal installed
• Prerequisites: libdrm-dev

export CHROME_SLIM_CAMHAL=ON
# for libdrm.pc
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig"
# only for yocto
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/lib/pkgconfig"
./autogen.sh
make -j8
# binary install
sudo make install
# build rpm package and then install
make rpm
rpm -ivh --force --nodeps icamerasrc-*.rpm

Pipeline examples

• Ensure ${GST_PLUGIN_PATH} includes icamerasrc installation path
• Testpattern generator (no sensor)
