Florian Klink 24a089f87d chore(users/flokli/ipu6-softisp): simplify expression
nixos-unstable got the bump to libcamera 0.2, no need to also do this
here.
We only need to use the patched libcamera for pipewire and wireplumber
running on the system.

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 6.7.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 and services.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.

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.
