[PATCH v3 0/3] Add ZynqMP VCU/Allegro DVT H.264 encoder driver

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is v3 of the series to add support for the Allegro DVT H.264 encoder
found in the EV family of the Xilinx ZynqMP platform.

The devicetree bindings now also include the clocks as documented in PG252
"H.264/H.265 Video Codec Unit v1.2" [0].

Most changes involve added or removed v4l2 callbacks that were mentioned in
the review comments to make the v4l2-compliance test suite happy.

I also updated the firmware loading and device probing to properly handle
failures and correctly reset or stop the MCU.

Still on my list is a check against the documentation of the memory-to-memory
stateful video encoder interface. If there are fixes necessary, I will include
them in a v4.

I did not introduce a separate queue for internal buffers for encoded frames.
I am still considering this split, but I want to have tracing in place before
doing this. The changes will completely internal to the driver and can be done
later anyway.

Each patch also contains a more detailed changelog.
