Unlike when resolution change on keyframes, dynamic resolution change on inter frames doesn't allow to do a stream off/on sequence because it is need to keep all previous references alive to decode inter frames. This constraint have two main problems: - more memory consumption. - more buffers in use. To solve these issue this series introduce DELETE_BUFS ioctl and remove the 32 buffers limit per queue. VP9 conformance tests using fluster give a score of 210/305. The 23 of the 24 resize inter tests (vp90-2-21-resize_inter_* files) are ok but require to use postprocessor. Kernel branch is available here: https://gitlab.collabora.com/benjamin.gaignard/for-upstream/-/commits/remove_vb2_queue_limit_v1 GStreamer branch to use DELETE_BUF ioctl and testing dynamic resolution change is here: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/benjamin.gaignard1/gstreamer/-/commits/VP9_drc changes in version 17: - rebased on top of: https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/project/linux-media/patch/20240118121452.29151-1-benjamin.gaignard@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/project/linux-media/patch/92975c06-d6e1-4ba6-8d03-b2ef0b199c21@xxxxxxxxx/ - rewrite min_reqbufs_allocation field documentation. - rewrite vb2_core_create_bufs() first_index parameter documentation. - rework bitmap allocation usage in __vb2_queue_alloc(). - remove useless i < q->max_num_buffers checks. - rework DELETE_BUFS documentation. - change split between patch 7 and patch 8 - v4l2_m2m_delete_bufs() is now a static function. changes in version 16: - The 50 patches related to add helpers for queue num_bufefrs have already been merged. - 'min_queued_buffers' patch has been merged too. - Add 'min_reqbufs_allocation' field in vb2_queue structure. - Take care of 'min_queued_buffers' when deleting buffers - Add more check about buffers range limit when deleting buffers. changes in version 15: - Check that PLANE_INDEX_BITS value match with VIDEO_MAX_PLANES. - Add a check on vb->vb2_queue in vb2_queue_add_buffer() - Fix the remarks done by Hans, Thomasz and Andrzej. Thanks for the time they spend (again) on the review.
