ipu6-softisp
This code adds support for the ipu6 webcams via libcamera, based on the work in https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jwrdegoede/ipu6-softisp/.
It's supposed to be included in your NixOS configuration imports, and will:
- Add some patches to your kernel, which should apply on 6.8.x
- Add the
ipu6-camera-bins
firmware (still needed) - Enable some kernel config options
- Add an udev rule so libcamera can do DMABUF things
- Override
services.pipewire.package
andservices.pipewire.wireplumber.package
to use a pipewire built with a libcamera with support for this webcam.
Please make sure you don't have any of the hardware.ipu6
options still
enabled, as they use the closed-source userspace stack and will conflict.
Also make sure to track nixos-unstable for this. This code will get periodically updated to be compatible with nixos-unstable!
The testing instructions from https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jwrdegoede/ipu6-softisp/ still apply.
qcam
can be found in libcamera-qcam
(pending on
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/284964 to trickle into master).
Thanks to Hans de Goede for helping me bringing this up, as well as to puckipedia for sorting out some pipewire-related confusion.
