I tested this on rk3399 rkvdec with: ./fluster.py run -d GStreamer-VP9-V4L2SL-Gst1.0 -ts VP9-TEST-VECTORS -j1 And I get the same result as on mainline (6.8-rc3) Ran 220/305 tests successfully in 913.877 secs So I can't say I understand all the Rust here but my testing didn't show any regressions in the VP9 decoding. :) Deb > > Notice how: > > 1) many problematic memcpy's go away, these become a simple assignment in Rust. > > 2) it can interop seamlessly with the code in rkvdec-vp9.c that was already > converted in v1 of this series. > > 3) it can use the Rust version of `seg_feat_enabled` directly in vp9.rs, while > also using the C APIs from the v4l2-vp9-rs library in rkvdec-vp9.c > > 4) more modern things become available for the programmer, like iterators and > their methods without a performance penalty. > > I want to propose the following: > > Let's merge a non-RFC version of this series and gate it behind some kconfigs > so that we can switch between the C and Rust implementations.
