That's correct, we are also dealing with a stateless decoder here. It's actually the same hardware engine that's used for MPEG2 decoding, only configured differently. So we will need to introduce a pixfmt for compressed JPEG data without headers, reuse JPEG controls that apply and perhaps introduce new ones too if needed. I am also wondering about how MJPEG support should fit into this. As far as I understood, it shouldn't be very different from JPEG so we might want to have common controls for both. > > * Horizontal and vertical sampling factors for each Y/U/V component: > > > > The number of components and sampling factors are coded separately in > > the bitstream, but it's probably easier to use the already-existing > > V4L2_CID_JPEG_CHROMA_SUBSAMPLING control for specifying that. > > > > However, this is potentially very much related to the destination > > format.

Just like for the stateless decoding API, it would make sense to expect userspace to set those before enumerating CAPTURE formats in order to determine what the hardware can output. > > * Custom Huffman tables (DC and AC), both for luma and chroma > > > > It seems that there is a default table when no Huffman table is provided > > in the bitstream (I'm not too sure how standard that is, just started > > learning about JPEG).

For MPEG-2 support (and probably also H.265), we have considered the quantization tables optional and kept a default value in the driver. That's because said tables are not supported in all profiles, so they are de-facto optional. I think it's fair to consider that userspace does not need to implement more than what is needed for decoding. This makes our interface closer to the data obtained from the bitstream. However, having one copy of the default table per driver is far from optimal. I would suggest moving it to common v4l2 functions instead, but keeping it in kernel space. What do you think?
