[RFC PATCH 0/5] media: v4l2: Add m2m codec helpers

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

 



Hello,

This patch series is an attempt at factorizing some of the boiler plate
code that we find in most stateless codec drivers (and potentially
stateful codec ones too). It's been designed mostly based on the hantro
and cedrus driver and I decided to implement a third one using these
helpers to prove that they can be used more widely.

Those helpers are rather basic, and we could probably extend them (or
add new ones) to further simplify codec drivers, but with those in place
we already have a good level of code re-usability without forcing anyone
to use them if they feel they need things to be done differently.

Note that the H264 codec lib should soon see addition of helpers to
create the P/B0/B1 reflists (which are needed by both the hantro and
rockchip drivers), but I'd like the uAPI discussion on how to support
interlaced content to take place before providing generic helpers for
that.

I'd appreciate some feedback on patches 1-4. Patch 5 is here to show
how those helpers can be used and has dependencies on various H264 that
are still being discussed [1][2], so expect some kbuild failure reports.

Thanks,

Boris
