+     * The NORMAL mode can still be used for high speed output if the HAL can support high speed
+     * output while satisfying all the semantics of HAL APIs and metadata controls. It is
+     * recommended for the HAL to support high speed output in NORMAL mode (by advertising the high
+     * speed FPS ranges in android.control.aeAvailableTargetFpsRanges) if possible.
+     *
+     * This mode has below limitations/requirements:
+     *
+     *   1. The HAL must support up to 2 streams with sizes reported by
+     *      android.control.availableHighSpeedVideoConfigurations.
+     *   2. In this mode, the HAL is expected to output up to 120fps or higher. This mode must
+     *      support the targeted FPS range and size configurations reported by
+     *      android.control.availableHighSpeedVideoConfigurations.
+     *   3. The HAL must support HAL_PIXEL_FORMAT_IMPLEMENTATION_DEFINED output stream format.
+     *   4. To achieve efficient high speed streaming, the HAL may have to aggregate
+     *      multiple frames together and send to camera device for processing where the request
+     *      controls are same for all the frames in this batch (batch mode). The HAL must support
+     *      max batch size and the max batch size requirements defined by
+     *      android.control.availableHighSpeedVideoConfigurations.
+     *   5. In this mode, the HAL must override aeMode, awbMode, and afMode to ON, ON, and
+     *      CONTINUOUS_VIDEO, respectively. All post-processing block mode controls must be
+     *      overridden to be FAST. Therefore, no manual control of capture and post-processing
+     *      parameters is possible. All other controls operate the same as when
+     *      android.control.mode == AUTO. This means that all other android.control.* fields
+     *      must continue to work, such as
