[Background]

https://gitlab.com/vicamo/v4l2-relayd

[Impact]

 With this package, we can use the v4l2loopback device to bridge any video content by gstreamer as a virtual camera device.
 We need this with LP: #1958108 - [Canonical Partners] ipu6-camera-bins, ipu6-camera-hal, gst-plugins-icamera to enable Intel MIPI camera.

[Testing]

 1. Install v4l2-relayd and v4l2loopback-dkms.
 2. Modify /etc/default/v4l2-relayd to make VIDEOSRC=videotestsrc, FORMAT=YUV2, WIDTH=1280, HEIGHT=720, FRAMERATE=30/1.
 3. Reboot the system
 4. We should be able to use the virtual camera.

[Regression Potential]

 None

[Availability]

 You can find the package on https://launchpad.net/~oem-solutions-group/+archive/ubuntu/intel-ipu6.

[Rationale]

 We want to improve the hardware support for some Dell/HP/Lenovo laptops.

[Security]

 No CVE/known security issue.

[Quality assurance]

 We have used this package to enable Intel MIPI camera on some Dell laptops and some of them will be cerified by Ubuntu certification soon.
