[RESEND,v7,1/2] media: uapi: Add H264 low-level decoder API compound controls.

Message ID 7cd913545cfc80fa9999839c62c4bf7b354a7904.1554380738.git-series.maxime.ripard@bootlin.com (mailing list archive)

From: Pawel Osciak <posciak@chromium.org>

Stateless video codecs will require both the H264 metadata and slices in
order to be able to decode frames.

This introduces the definitions for a new pixel format for H264 slices that
have been parsed, as well as the structures used to pass the metadata from
the userspace to the kernel.

The control is called _PARAMS, yet the struct is called _param.
Same for DECODE_PARAMS.

Can you rename the structs and anything else that has the same problem to _params?

This mismatch is confusing. MPEG2 uses _params, and I think we should do the same
for H.264.

Sorry, I hadn't noticed this in earlier reviews.

The control is called _PARAMS, yet the struct is called _param.
Same for DECODE_PARAMS.

Can you rename the structs and anything else that has the same problem to _params?

This mismatch is confusing. MPEG2 uses _params, and I think we should do the same
for H.264.

Sorry, I hadn't noticed this in earlier reviews.

Regards,

We recently had some reflection with Alex that this is redundant with
the width and height in the OUTPUT format. It may also apply to some
other fields in these structs. I feel like they should be removed and
passed via corresponding generic V4L2 properties - format, selection,
etc.

The same problem is also present in the MPEG2 controls. In fact, there
was a patch already which used some fields from the controls to
calculate the destination buffer strides, rather than bytesperline in
the format.

Since we're in staging, it could be done with a follow-up patch, though.

Best regards,

Just my two cents. I played with some codecs a while back. IIRC some
specify a "codec" size in addition to the actual picture size, like
when the encoder does padding to fit the requirements of the codec
(spec). Is this needed anywhere?

With state-less encoders, the headers, which contains the crop
information is created by userspace and for state less decoder, the
headers that contains this information is parsed by userspace. So I
believe that in theory, the accelerator does not strictly need to be
aware of the cropped dimensions.

Another thing, is that there is not guarantied matches between e.g.
depth of the chrome/luma and the final image buffers. Some hardware may
have bandwidth limitation or internal converter and could possibly
decode 10bit data into 8bit buffers.

A third reason why I would not try and encode this header information
is that there can be multiple PPS/SPS at the same time, and I think
it's confusing if the relevant information to differentiate them is
removed.

Sorry if that sounds a bit dumb, but it's not really clear to me if
you're arguing for the removal of the data as Tomasz suggests, or if
you want to keep them.

The first paragrah seems to advocate for the former, but the two
others for the latter.

Thanks!

I think the data should stay. As I said, there can be multiple SPS/PPS,
while there is only one format. That being said, how does SPS/PPS
activation works ? How do you tell the driver about all the SPS/PPS and
which one is being activated ?

The current way of dealing with this is that the _SLICE_PARAMS control
actually takes an array of SPS's. And same thing for PPS.

There's no difference between activated and deactivated ones
though. What is the use case for this?

Thanks!

Uhm, there is only one format, but so there is only one active
SPS/PPS, isn't it?

An alternative would be to just make the OUTPUT format a function of
the currently set controls, so that it would always match the active
PPS/SPS, without the ability for the application to change it.

I just want to avoid the case when the OUTPUT format can be set
randomly to something different than in the stream and also drivers
reading randomly the format-related information sometimes from the
controls and sometimes from the format state.

Best regards,
Tomasz

Yes, and the active one can only change on frame boundary.
