Why This File Exists
Repeatable hardware-adapter layer. Deep compatibility for every driver is out of scope; this atlas records patterns, probe lifecycles, bus glue, IRQ/DMA usage, and links back to core abstractions.
- Repeatable hardware-adapter layer. Deep compatibility for every driver is out of scope; this atlas records patterns, probe lifecycles, bus glue, IRQ/DMA usage, and links back to core abstractions.
- Exports symbols or registers init work; inspect boot/module ordering and who consumes the exported contract.
- Defines or uses C structs; map object ownership, embedded links, reference counts, and lock ownership.

/* Autogain + exposure algorithm for cameras with a coarse exposure control
(usually this means we can only control the clockdiv to change exposure)
As changing the clockdiv so that the fps drops from 30 to 15 fps for
example, will lead to a huge exposure change (it effectively doubles),
this algorithm normally tries to only adjust the gain (between 40 and
80 %) and if that does not help, only then changes exposure. This leads
to a much more stable image then using the knee algorithm which at
certain points of the knee graph will only try to adjust exposure,
which leads to oscillating as one exposure step is huge.
Returns 0 if no changes were made, 1 if the gain and or exposure settings
where changed. */

Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
