I think I would rather keep this in the CODEC specific APIs (BFrame being an
MPEG specific concept). If I knew about this before we made the API final, I
would have added the slice_type bitstream parameter in the
v4l2_h264_decode_params structure. But as the types are rather limited, I would
preserve our "reservered" space and make that part of the
V4L2_H264_DECODE_PARAM_FLAGS_{} instead. Do you also need that for HEVC ? (do
you have HEVC on that generation of tegra ?)
