一、camera_metadata简介
Camera API2/HAL3架构下使用了全新的CameraMetadata结构取代了之前的SetParameter/Paramters等操作，实现了Java到native到HAL3的参数传递。引入了管道的概念将安卓设备和摄像头之间联系起来，系统向摄像头发送 Capture 请求，而摄像头会返回 CameraMetadata，这一切建立在一个叫作 CameraCaptureSession 的会话中。
二、Framework到HAL层的转换
Camera2Client 使用 API1 传递参数采用的逻辑是还是在Java层预留了setParameters接口，只是当Parameter在设置时比起CameraClient而言，是将这个Parameter根据不同的TAG形式直接绑定到CameraMetadata mPreviewRequest/mRecordRequest/mCaptureRequest中，这些数据会由Capture_Request转为camera3_capture_request中的camera_metadata_t settings完成参数从Java到native到HAL3的传递。
但是在Camera API2下，不再需要那么复杂的转换过程，在Java层中直接对参数进行设置并将其封装到Capture_Request即可，即参数控制由Java层来完成。这也体现了API2中Request和Result在APP中就大量存在的原因。对此为了和Framework Native层相关TAG数据的统一，在Java层中大量出现的参数设置是通过Section Tag的name来交由Native完成转换生成在Java层的TAG。
（1）Java层对应代码位置：frameworks\base\core\java\android\hardware\camera2\impl\CameraMetadataNative.java
private <T> T getBase(Key<T> key) {
int tag = nativeGetTagFromKeyLocal(key.getName());
byte[] values = readValues(tag);
if (values == null) {
// If the key returns null, use the fallback key if exists.
// This is to support old key names for the newly published keys.
if (key.mFallbackName == null) {
return null;
}
tag = nativeGetTagFromKeyLocal(key.mFallbackName);
values = readValues(tag);
if (values == null) {
return null;
}
}
int nativeType = nativeGetTypeFromTagLocal(tag);
Marshaler<T> marshaler = getMarshalerForKey(key, nativeType);
ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.wrap(values).order(ByteOrder.nativeOrder());
return marshaler.unmarshal(buffer);
}
（2）Native层对应代码位置：frameworks/base/core/jni/android_hardware_camera2_CameraMetadata.cpp
static const JNINativeMethod gCameraMetadataMethods[] = {
// static methods
{ "nativeGetTagFromKey",
"(Ljava/lang/String;J)I",
(void *)CameraMetadata_getTagFromKey },
{ "nativeGetTypeFromTag",
"(IJ)I",
(void *)CameraMetadata_getTypeFromTag },
{ "nativeSetupGlobalVendorTagDescriptor",
"()I",
(void*)CameraMetadata_setupGlobalVendorTagDescriptor },
// instance methods
......
其中CameraMetadata_getTagFromKey是实现将一个Java层的string转为一个tag的值，如：android.control.mode。对比最初不同的Section name就可以发现前面两个x.y的字符串就是代表是Section name.而后面mode即是在该section下的tag数值，所以通过对这个string的分析可知，就可以定位对应的section以及tag值，这样返回到Java层的就是key相应的tag值了。继续追踪到 \system\media\camera\src\camera_metadata.c：
// Declared in system/media/private/camera/include/camera_metadata_hidden.h const char *get_local_camera_metadata_tag_name_vendor_id(uint32_t tag, metadata_vendor_id_t id) { uint32_t tag_section = tag >> 16; if (tag_section >= VENDOR_SECTION && vendor_cache_ops != NULL && id != CAMERA_METADATA_INVALID_VENDOR_ID) { return vendor_cache_ops->get_tag_name(tag, id); } else if (tag_section >= VENDOR_SECTION && vendor_tag_ops != NULL) { return vendor_tag_ops->get_tag_name( vendor_tag_ops, tag); } if (tag_section >= ANDROID_SECTION_COUNT || tag >= camera_metadata_section_bounds[tag_section][1] ) { // 关键是camera_metadata_section_bounds这个数组，保存了各个tag的绑定信息 return NULL; } uint32_t tag_index = tag & 0xFFFF; return tag_info[tag_section][tag_index].tag_name; }
其他相关文件的调用关系如下图：
其中 camera_metadata_tags.h 包含了所有的基本宏，每一个section的大小是64K（每个枚举值左移16位）：

而每个MODE的END值是根据START后的填充枚举变量偏移所得：

对应关系如图所示：
然后在 camera_metadata_tag_info.c 中进行了映射和绑定，前面Native层CameraMetadata_getTagFromKey调用的camera_metadata_section_bounds实现在这里：

由 tag_info 结构体统一管理：

下图是Camera Metadata对不同section以及相应section下不同tag的布局图，以最常见的android.control Section为例进行描述：
如果要写数据，那么在native同样需要一个CameraMetadata对象，这里是在Java构造CameraMetadataNative时实现的，调用的native接口是nativeAllocate()：
// instance methods { "nativeAllocate", "()J", (void*)CameraMetadata_allocate },
static jlong CameraMetadata_allocate(JNIEnv *env, jobject thiz) { ALOGV("%s", __FUNCTION__); return reinterpret_cast<jlong>(new CameraMetadata()); }
CameraMetadata::CameraMetadata(size_t entryCapacity, size_t dataCapacity) : mLocked(false) { mBuffer = allocate_camera_metadata(entryCapacity, dataCapacity); }
函数allocate_camera_metadata()是重新根据入口数和数据大小计算、申请buffer。紧接着第二个place_camera_metadata()就是对刚申请的buffer，初始化一些变量，为后面更新，插入tag数据做准备。
camera_metadata_t *allocate_camera_metadata(size_t entry_capacity, size_t data_capacity) { //传入的参数是（2,0) if (entry_capacity == 0) return NULL; size_t memory_needed = calculate_camera_metadata_size(entry_capacity, //返回的是header+2*sizeof(entry)大小 data_capacity);
void *buffer = malloc(memory_needed); //malloc申请一块连续的内存， return place_camera_metadata(buffer, memory_needed, //并初始化。 entry_capacity, data_capacity); } camera_metadata_t *place_camera_metadata(void *dst, size_t dst_size, size_t entry_capacity, size_t data_capacity) { if (dst == NULL) return NULL; if (entry_capacity == 0) return NULL; size_t memory_needed = calculate_camera_metadata_size(entry_capacity, //再一次计算需要的内存大小，为何？？ data_capacity); if (memory_needed > dst_size) return NULL; camera_metadata_t *metadata = (camera_metadata_t*)dst; metadata->version = CURRENT_METADATA_VERSION; //版本号， metadata->flags = 0;//没有排序标志 metadata->entry_count = 0; //初始化entry_count =0 metadata->entry_capacity = entry_capacity; //最大的入口数量，针对ANDROID_FLASH_MODE这里是2个。 metadata->entries_start = ALIGN_TO(sizeof(camera_metadata_t), ENTRY_ALIGNMENT); //entry数据域的开始处紧挨着camera_metadata_t 头部。 metadata->data_count = 0; //初始化为0 metadata->data_capacity = data_capacity; //因为没有申请内存，这里也是0 metadata->size = memory_needed; //总的内存大小 size_t data_unaligned = (uint8_t*)(get_entries(metadata) + metadata->entry_capacity) - (uint8_t*)metadata; metadata->data_start = ALIGN_TO(data_unaligned, DATA_ALIGNMENT); //计算data数据区域的偏移地址。数据区域紧挨着entry区域末尾。 return metadata;
}
//根据入口数量和数据数量，计算实际camera_metadata需要的内存块大小（header+sizeof(camera_entry)+sizeof(data）。 size_t calculate_camera_metadata_size(size_t entry_count, size_t data_count) { //针对我们上面讲的例子，传入的参数是（2,0） size_t memory_needed = sizeof(camera_metadata_t); //这里计算header大小了。 // Start entry list at aligned boundary memory_needed = ALIGN_TO(memory_needed, ENTRY_ALIGNMENT); //按字节对齐后的大小 memory_needed += sizeof(camera_metadata_buffer_entry_t[entry_count]); //紧接着是entry数据区的大小了，这里申请了2个entry内存空间。 // Start buffer list at aligned boundary memory_needed = ALIGN_TO(memory_needed, DATA_ALIGNMENT); //同样对齐 memory_needed += sizeof(uint8_t[data_count]); //data_count = 0 return memory_needed; //返回的最后算出的大小 }
CameraMetadata数据内存块中组成的最小基本单元是struct camera_metadata_buffer_entry，总的entry数目等信息需要struct camera_metadata_t来维护。
结构图如下：
在HAL层代码中通过如下方式获取/更新 entry：
{ UINT32 SensorTimestampTag = 0x000E0010; camera_metadata_entry_t entry = { 0 }; camera_metadata_t* pMetadata = const_cast<camera_metadata_t*>(static_cast<const camera_metadata_t*>(pResult->pResultMetadata)); UINT64 timestamp = m_shutterTimestamp[applicationFrameNum % MaxOutstandingRequests]; INT32 status = find_camera_metadata_entry(pMetadata, SensorTimestampTag, &entry); if (-ENOENT == status) //没有查找到tag时，则认为是一个新的tag，需要添加到大数据结构中 { status = add_camera_metadata_entry(pMetadata, SensorTimestampTag, ×tamp, 1); } else if (0 == status) { status = update_camera_metadata_entry(pMetadata, entry.index, ×tamp, 1, NULL); } }
find_camera_metadata_entry函数非常好理解，获取对应tag的entry结构体，并将数据保存在entry传入的参数中。
注：struct camera_metadata_buffer_entry_t； //内部使用记录tag数据
struct camera_metadata_entry_t； //外部引用
int find_camera_metadata_entry(camera_metadata_t *src, uint32_t tag, camera_metadata_entry_t *entry) { if (src == NULL) return ERROR; uint32_t index; if (src->flags & FLAG_SORTED) { //之前初始化时，flags = 0，这里不成立，跳到else处 // Sorted entries, do a binary search camera_metadata_buffer_entry_t *search_entry = NULL; camera_metadata_buffer_entry_t key; key.tag = tag; search_entry = bsearch(&key, get_entries(src), src->entry_count, sizeof(camera_metadata_buffer_entry_t), compare_entry_tags); if (search_entry == NULL) return NOT_FOUND; index = search_entry - get_entries(src); } else { // Not sorted, linear search camera_metadata_buffer_entry_t *search_entry = get_entries(src); for (index = 0; index < src->entry_count; index++, search_entry++) { //这里由于entry_count =0 因为根本就没有添加任何东西。 if (search_entry->tag == tag) { break; } } if (index == src->entry_count) return NOT_FOUND; //返回NOT_FOUNT } return get_camera_metadata_entry(src, index, //找到index的tag entry entry); } int add_camera_metadata_entry(camera_metadata_t *dst, uint32_t tag, const void *data, size_t data_count) { //这里传入的参数为（mBuffer，ANDROID_FLASH_MODE,5,1) int type = get_camera_metadata_tag_type(tag); if (type == -1) { ALOGE("%s: Unknown tag %04x.", __FUNCTION__, tag); return ERROR; } return add_camera_metadata_entry_raw(dst, //这里传入的参数为（mBuffer，ANDROID_FLASH_MODE,BYTE_TYPE,5,1) DOWN tag, type, data, data_count); }
//下面是真正干实事的方法，这里会将外部传入的tag信息，存放到各自的家中 static int add_camera_metadata_entry_raw(camera_metadata_t *dst, uint32_t tag, uint8_t type, const void *data, size_t data_count) { if (dst == NULL) return ERROR; if (dst->entry_count == dst->entry_capacity) return ERROR; //如果成立，就没有空间了。 if (data == NULL) return ERROR; size_t data_bytes = calculate_camera_metadata_entry_data_size(type, data_count); //计算要使用的内存大小这里1*1,但是返回的是0 if (data_bytes + dst->data_count > dst->data_capacity) return ERROR; //用的空间+当前数据位置指针，不能大于数据最大空间。 size_t data_payload_bytes = data_count * camera_metadata_type_size[type]; //data_count =1,data_payload_bytes =1; camera_metadata_buffer_entry_t *entry = get_entries(dst) + dst->entry_count;//得到当前空闲的entry对象。 memset(entry, 0, sizeof(camera_metadata_buffer_entry_t)); //清0 entry->tag = tag; //ANDROID_FLASH_MODE. entry->type = type; //BYTE_TYPE entry->count = data_count; //没有占用data数据域，这里就是0了。 if (data_bytes == 0) { memcpy(entry->data.value, data, data_payload_bytes); //小于4字节的，直接放到entry数据域。 } else { entry->data.offset = dst->data_count; memcpy(get_data(dst) + entry->data.offset, data, data_payload_bytes); dst->data_count += data_bytes; } dst->entry_count++; //入口位置记录指针+1. dst->flags &= ~FLAG_SORTED; return OK; //到这里ANDROID_FLASH_MODE就添加进去了。 }
update更新并建立参数过程：CameraMetadata支持不同类型的数据更新或者保存到camera_metadata_t中tag所在的entry当中去，以一个更新单字节的数据为例，data_count指定了数据的个数，而tag指定了要更新的entry。
status_t CameraMetadata::update(uint32_t tag, const int32_t *data, size_t data_count) { status_t res; if (mLocked) { ALOGE("%s: CameraMetadata is locked", __FUNCTION__); return INVALID_OPERATION; } if ( (res = checkType(tag, TYPE_INT32)) != OK) { return res; } return updateImpl(tag, (const void*)data, data_count); }
首先是通过checkType，主要是通过tag找到get_camera_metadata_tag_type其所应当支持的tag_type(因为具体的TAG是已经通过camera_metadata_tag_info.c源文件中的tag_info这个表指定了其应该具备的tag_type)，比较两者是否一致，一致后才允许后续的操作。如这里需要TYPE_BYTE一致：
const char *get_camera_metadata_tag_name(uint32_t tag) { uint32_t tag_section = tag >> 16; if (tag_section >= VENDOR_SECTION && vendor_tag_ops != NULL) { return vendor_tag_ops->get_tag_name( vendor_tag_ops, tag); } if (tag_section >= ANDROID_SECTION_COUNT || tag >= camera_metadata_section_bounds[tag_section][1] ) { return NULL; } uint32_t tag_index = tag & 0xFFFF;//取tag在section中的index，低16位 return tag_info[tag_section][tag_index].tag_name;//定位section然后再说tag } int get_camera_metadata_tag_type(uint32_t tag) { uint32_t tag_section = tag >> 16; if (tag_section >= VENDOR_SECTION && vendor_tag_ops != NULL) { return vendor_tag_ops->get_tag_type( vendor_tag_ops, tag); } if (tag_section >= ANDROID_SECTION_COUNT || tag >= camera_metadata_section_bounds[tag_section][1] ) { return -1; } uint32_t tag_index = tag & 0xFFFF; return tag_info[tag_section][tag_index].tag_type; }
分别是通过tag取货section id即tag>>16，就定位到所属的section tag_info_t[]，再通过在在该section中定位tag index一般是tag&0xFFFF的低16位为在该tag在section中的偏移值，进而找到tag自身的struct tag_info_t.
updataImpl函数主要是讲所有要写入的数据进行update操作：
status_t CameraMetadata::updateImpl(uint32_t tag, const void *data, size_t data_count) { status_t res; if (mLocked) { ALOGE("%s: CameraMetadata is locked", __FUNCTION__); return INVALID_OPERATION; } int type = get_camera_metadata_tag_type(tag); if (type == -1) { ALOGE("%s: Tag %d not found", __FUNCTION__, tag); return BAD_VALUE; } size_t data_size = calculate_camera_metadata_entry_data_size(type, data_count); res = resizeIfNeeded(1, data_size);//新建camera_metadata_t if (res == OK) { camera_metadata_entry_t entry; res = find_camera_metadata_entry(mBuffer, tag, &entry); if (res == NAME_NOT_FOUND) { res = add_camera_metadata_entry(mBuffer, tag, data, data_count);//将当前新的tag以及数据加入到camera_metadata_t } else if (res == OK) { res = update_camera_metadata_entry(mBuffer, entry.index, data, data_count, NULL); } } if (res != OK) { ALOGE("%s: Unable to update metadata entry %s.%s (%x): %s (%d)", __FUNCTION__, get_camera_metadata_section_name(tag), get_camera_metadata_tag_name(tag), tag, strerror(-res), res); } IF_ALOGV() { ALOGE_IF(validate_camera_metadata_structure(mBuffer, /*size*/NULL) != OK, "%s: Failed to validate metadata structure after update %p", __FUNCTION__, mBuffer); } return res; }
流程框图如下：
最终可以明确的是CameraMetadata相关的参数是被Java层来set/get，但本质是在native层进行了实现，后续如果相关控制参数是被打包到CaptureRequest中时传入到native时即操作的还是native中的CameraMetadata。
三、设置AF的工作模式示例
下面以API2中java层中设置AF的工作模式为例，来说明这个参数设置的过程：
//Java部分代码
mPreviewBuilder.set(CaptureRequest.CONTROL_AF_MODE, CaptureRequest.CONTROL_AF_MODE_CONTINUOUS_PICTURE); session.setRepeatingRequest(mPreviewBuilder.build(), mSessionCaptureCallback, mHandler);
其中CONTROL_AF_MODE定义在CaptureRequest.java中如下以一个Key的形式存在：
/* @see #CONTROL_AF_MODE_OFF
* @see #CONTROL_AF_MODE_AUTO
* @see #CONTROL_AF_MODE_MACRO
* @see #CONTROL_AF_MODE_CONTINUOUS_VIDEO
* @see #CONTROL_AF_MODE_CONTINUOUS_PICTURE
* @see #CONTROL_AF_MODE_EDOF
*/
public static final Key<Integer> CONTROL_AF_MODE = new Key<Integer>("android.control.afMode", int.class);
public Key(String name, Class<T> type) { mKey = new CameraMetadataNative.Key<T>(name, type); }
在CameraMetadataNative.java中Key的构造:
public Key(String name, Class<T> type) { if (name == null) { throw new NullPointerException("Key needs a valid name"); } else if (type == null) { throw new NullPointerException("Type needs to be non-null"); } mName = name; mType = type; mTypeReference = TypeReference.createSpecializedTypeReference(type); mHash = mName.hashCode() ^ mTypeReference.hashCode(); }
其中CONTROL_AF_MODE_CONTINUOUS_PICTURE定义在CameraMetadata.java中
public static final int CONTROL_AF_MODE_CONTINUOUS_PICTURE = 4;
逐一定位set的入口：
a. mPreviewBuilder是CaptureRequest.java的build类，其会构建一个CaptureRequest:
public Builder(CameraMetadataNative template) { mRequest = new CaptureRequest(template); }
private CaptureRequest() { mSettings = new CameraMetadataNative(); mSurfaceSet = new HashSet<Surface>(); }
mSetting建立的是一个CameraMetadataNative对象，主要用于和Native层进行接口交互，构造如下:
public CameraMetadataNative() { super(); mMetadataPtr = nativeAllocate(); if (mMetadataPtr == 0) { throw new OutOfMemoryError("Failed to allocate native CameraMetadata"); } }
b. CaptureRequest.Build.set()
public <T> void set(Key<T> key, T value) { mRequest.mSettings.set(key, value); }
public <T> void set(CaptureRequest.Key<T> key, T value) { set(key.getNativeKey(), value); }
考虑到CaptureRequest extend CameraMetadata，则CaptureRequest.java中getNativeKey:
public CameraMetadataNative.Key<T> getNativeKey() { return mKey; }
mKey即为之前构造的CameraMetadataNative.Key:
public <T> void set(Key<T> key, T value) { SetCommand s = sSetCommandMap.get(key); if (s != null) { s.setValue(this, value); return; } setBase(key, value); }
private <T> void setBase(Key<T> key, T value) { int tag = key.getTag(); if (value == null) { // Erase the entry writeValues(tag, /*src*/null); return; } // else update the entry to a new value Marshaler<T> marshaler = getMarshalerForKey(key); int size = marshaler.calculateMarshalSize(value); // TODO: Optimization. Cache the byte[] and reuse if the size is big enough. byte[] values = new byte[size]; ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.wrap(values).order(ByteOrder.nativeOrder()); marshaler.marshal(value, buffer); writeValues(tag, values); }
首先来看key.getTag()函数的实现，他是将这个key交由Native层后转为一个真正的在Java层中的tag值：
public final int getTag() { if (!mHasTag) { mTag = CameraMetadataNative.getTag(mName); mHasTag = true; } return mTag; }
public static int getTag(String key) { return nativeGetTagFromKey(key); }
是将Java层的String交由Native来转为一个Java层的tag值。
再来看writeValues的实现，同样调用的是一个native接口，很好的阐明了CameraMetadataNative的意思：
public void writeValues(int tag, byte[] src) { nativeWriteValues(tag, src); }
同样和开头native层代码部分对应起来了。
