ARCH §5.3 still described only a tile cache nobody built; it now says
what 0.19.0 tiles and what it does not: a linear DNG past PROXY_EDGE
opens on a reduced copy, a finer render samples a full-resolution
window, and the export is cut into halo-grown tiles. display-and-
extension.md's FR-DSP-2 row said absent, outstanding.md said the halo
had nothing to read it and that such a file fell to the embedded
preview.
rawler now builds from third_party, which ARCH's stack table and §3.2,
the root Cargo.toml's comment ("two upstream crates ... for Android")
and third_party/README.md's bump procedure did not know; the README
also names each vendored crate's licence. panorama.md and the manual
say a composite this wide develops and exports.
The tone curve clamped its input to [0, 1] and its output back to 1.0
around a 2.2 gamma, mid-chain — master and per-channel both. So any
edit with a curve made every scene value above 1.0 the same number
before the view transform ever saw it: D19's fourth finding. Beyond its
last point the curve now continues along its last span, whose secant
is the tangent the spline already gives that point, so the join is
smooth and an identity curve stays the identity to any height. The only
clamp left is the floor at zero, where there is no light to curve.
FR-DEV-2's acceptance test is how the rule stays true.
`scene_referred_until_the_view` wraps every point operation, at
non-neutral settings, between a gain of sixteen and one of a
sixty-fourth, with an identity in the view transform's place, and
renders a ramp from 0.4 to 15.2 times sensor saturation through it. The
output must still increase with the input and still separate the top of
the ramp. Run against the previous commit's tone curve it fails with
[21, 29, 33, 33, 33, 33, 33, 33]; every other operation already passed.
It renders on a device because dr-pipeline has none, and the spec's
pointer to it says so.
The base curve was a five-point spline on the unit square, flat past its
last point: every value above 1.0 left it as the same number, per
channel. Exposure and highlight recovery put values up there, and the
curve threw them away, then handed the result on as though it were
still scene-linear. The six per-body curves were also, by their own
file's account, hand-tuned shapes rather than measurements, and not
enough is known about where they came from to keep them (D19).
In their place, one view transform for every body (FR-DEV-3j): a
log-logistic sigmoid per channel, with the middle channel put back
between the other two so a hue survives the shoulder. Its two free
constants are solved from two conditions rather than set: scene grey
0.13, where the retired default curve put it, lands on display 0.18,
and the scene white four stops above grey lands on 1.0. So a highlight
a stop past sensor saturation still rolls into white, and the midtones
stay within 0.26 EV of the retired default between scene 0.03 and 1.0.
`dr_pipeline::view` holds the CPU reference and the WGSL, and the tests
there are FR-DEV-3j's acceptance criteria.
It is still fixed and still in the fused pass's tail, so a detail stage
still sees rendered values; the next commits make it an operation and
move it after the detail stage. It is skipped for a JPEG, as the base
curve was, and absent from the camera-space tap.
The base curve's database, its lookup and its twelve uniform slots go.
`RawImage` and `DemosaicedImage` lose the field, and the GPU test that
proved a curve reached the shader is replaced by one that renders the
view transform against the CPU reference and shows two highlights above
1.0 still render apart. The JPEG-and-sensor test now asserts the two
differ by exactly the view transform, where before an identity fixture
curve had made them match.
The spec missed Ansel, and with it Aurélien Pierre's argument that a
display-referred curve early in the pipeline throws away what every
later stage needs. Read against that argument, the code broke it four
ways: the base curve was flat past its last point and so clipped every
recovered highlight; the detail stage was handed curved, clipped values
while its comments promised linear ones; the edits ran in camera RGB
because the matrix had drifted to after them, against ARCH §5.2; and the
tone curve clamped to [0, 1] around a 2.2 gamma mid-chain.
D19 records the decision: unbounded scene-linear colour from the matrix
to one view transform, last, after the detail stage. FR-DEV-3j specifies
that view transform as an adjustable operation (contrast, white) with a
default fitted to where the retired default curve put middle grey.
FR-DEV-3e retires the per-body base curves, whose own file called them
hand-tuned shapes of unknown provenance. FR-DEV-3f makes a film stock
the view transform when one is chosen, instead of a rendering at order
25 that the later edits acted on. FR-DEV-2 gains the acceptance test
that holds the rule, and ARCH gains §6.14 and the corrected §5.2 order.
fc54523 (0.18.1) stopped running a layer as a second chain after every
global operation and made its settings offsets applied at each
operation's own place, and nothing outside the code said so. The
manual still read as though a mask's slider were a setting of its own,
frame-budget.md described the masks as "a separate chain per layer",
and no document said how a layer is blended at all.
architecture.md §5.2 now says it: the offset, the blend by the layer's
weighted difference from the global result, what a photograph with no
layers composes to, and the film as the one operation whose settings
are averaged instead (6b99f67). FR-DEV-3 records the change as resolved
beside its local-adjustments bullet, frame-budget.md's note on what it
does not measure describes the cost as it now is, and the manual gives
the arithmetic in one sentence: -20 in a mask over -30 is -50 there.
The bundled manual is regenerated to match.
c50d96e added a repair pass ahead of the demosaic and no document said
so: FR-RAW-3's text names levels, the CFA and the colour matrices, and
architecture.md §5.2's stage diagram went from the upload straight to
black and white levels.
FR-RAW-3 now carries a status note: what counts as hot or dead, what
the photosite becomes, that Bayer and X-Trans share the pass, that
export and every other demosaicing path get it with no setting, the
test that holds it, and that the DNG defect map dr-decode can read is
still not used. §5.2 gains the stage and a paragraph on why it sits
before the demosaic, and its pointer to the raw histogram's tap names
the demosaic box rather than a row count the new stage would have made
wrong.
§7.1 now says where its table lives in code, how the UI thread is
marked and guarded, and that the counts are a budget rather than a
bound until work is pooled by executor. The register's status note says
what is met — named, spawned through one module, block_on guarded and
tested — and what is not: pooling, a guard for synchronous file reads
and catalog queries, the two mask workers, and threads the core crates
start.
§3.2 sketches a RawDecoder over a seekable reader, and the crate map
named it. FR-RAW-2 was built in 0.15.0 as dr_decode::Decoder over bytes
(core/dr-decode/src/decoder.rs:33): the decoder states how much it needs
and where its preview is, and the storage layer fetches it. The sketch
stays as the argument for four entry points; a note under it says what
shipped, and the crate map uses the built name.
The pre-rotation patches landed in the previous four commits. This
records how the debt was paid, by a fourth route its own list missed:
patching wgpu-hal and Slint's Skia surface locally rather than waiting
for either upstream. It also updates architecture.md §1 and §6.1, which
still said Android draws with OpenGL behind a readback.
The verification is stated as what it was: the user found the
release-signed build clean on the tablet in portrait. No dumpsys
composition or bufferTransform readings were taken, because adb would
not hold the device that morning, and no frame times were measured.
docs/ had 26 developer documents flat beside the manual, and the two
audiences are very differently sized: most readers want the manual and
the gesture reference, a few want the register, the designs and the
measurements. The manual and gestures.md stay at the top; everything for
someone changing the code moves to docs/dev/, and the two documents that
name their own successors — the v0.1 milestone and the UI-refinement plan
— go to docs/dev/archive/ rather than being deleted, since both are still
cited. docs/README.md is the index, users first.
Every reference follows: code comments, Cargo manifests, the workflows,
the pre-commit hook, the bench and traceability tools (which locate the
repo root by docs/dev/requirements.md now), packaging, the Docker READMEs,
CLAUDE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md and the README. The matrix links one level
deeper and is regenerated. Links out of the moved documents into the tree
gain a level; a link checker over every Markdown file finds none broken.
