From: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil-cisco@xxxxxxxxx>
This patch adds support for the V4L2_BUF_FLAG_M2M_HOLD_CAPTURE_BUF flag.
It also adds a new V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_M2M_HOLD_CAPTURE_BUF capability and
a v4l2_m2m_release_capture_buf() helper function.
Drivers should set vb2_queue->subsystem_flags to
VB2_V4L2_FL_SUPPORTS_M2M_HOLD_CAPTURE_BUF to indicate support for this flag.
The device_run() function should look like this:
if (v4l2_m2m_release_capture_buf(out_vb, cap_vb)) {
v4l2_m2m_dst_buf_remove(m2m_ctx);
v4l2_m2m_buf_done(cap_vb, VB2_BUF_STATE_DONE);
cap_vb = v4l2_m2m_next_dst_buf(ctx->fh.m2m_ctx);
}
cap_vb->is_held = out_vb->flags & V4L2_BUF_FLAG_M2M_HOLD_CAPTURE_BUF;
...
v4l2_m2m_buf_done(out_vb, VB2_BUF_STATE_DONE);
if (!cap_vb->is_held) {
v4l2_m2m_dst_buf_remove(m2m_ctx);
v4l2_m2m_buf_done(cap_vb, VB2_BUF_STATE_DONE);
}
In order to handle the corner case where V4L2_BUF_FLAG_M2M_HOLD_CAPTURE_BUF
is always set for the output buffer, and you reached the last frame (so no
new output buffer will be queued with a new timestamp), the driver must
implement support for the V4L2_DEC_CMD_FLUSH command, and that should do:
struct vb2_v4l2_buffer *out_vb = v4l2_m2m_last_src_buf(m2m_ctx);
struct vb2_v4l2_buffer *cap_vb = v4l2_m2m_last_dst_buf(m2m_ctx);
if (out_vb)
out_vb->flags &= ~V4L2_BUF_FLAG_M2M_HOLD_CAPTURE_BUF;
else if (cap_vb && cap_vb->is_held)
v4l2_m2m_buf_done(cap_vb, VB2_BUF_STATE_DONE);
For formats that do not support slicing (e.g. VP8), the FLUSH command
just does nothing.
