This series aims to make HEVC uapi stable and usable for hardware
decoder. HEVC uapi is used by 2 mainlined drivers (Cedrus and Hantro)
and 2 out of the tree drivers (rkvdec and RPI).

After the remarks done on version 2, I have completely reworked to patches
split so changelogs are meaningless. I have also drop "RFC" from the
titles.

In this v3 I do all the changes (new controls, documentation, etc..)
in the staging directory before moving the HEVC uAPI to stable
steps by steps (unlike the big one patch in v2).

At the end fluster tests results on IMX8MQ is 77/147 for HEVC codec.
I have push a branch here:
https://gitlab.collabora.com/benjamin.gaignard/for-upstream/-/commits/HEVC_UAPI_V4

it is the incoming version 4 of this series + patches to enable G2 on my IMX8MQ
Benjamin,

I checked this repo out, and built it along with pulling the latest
versions of G-streamer and fluster.
When I check for v4l2 compatibility, I get the following:

GStreamer-H.264-V4L2-Gst1.0: GStreamer H.264 V4L2 decoder for
GStreamer 1.0... ❌
GStreamer-H.264-V4L2SL-Gst1.0: GStreamer H.264 V4L2SL decoder for

GStreamer 1.0... ✔️
GStreamer-VP9-V4L2SL-Gst1.0: GStreamer VP9 V4L2SL decoder for
GStreamer 1.0... ✔️

I see H,264, VP8 and VP9, but I would have also expected
GStreamer-H.265-V4L2SL-Gst1.0 to return with a check box.

When I checked to see if both decoders were being enumerated, I found they were.
[gst-main] root@localhost:~/gstreamer/fluster# dmesg |grep -i hantro

Did I do something wrong, or did I miss something?

Hi Adam,

I guess it could be a misalignment between v4l2 kernel headers
and GStreamer v4l2 headers.
I have push a new version of the GST merge request which is aligned with
HEVC uAPI v4 proposal.

When you inspect v4l2codecs gst plugin (gst-inspect-1.0 v4l2codecs) do
you see v4l2slh265dec plugin ?
I have fluster happy with it:
./fluster.py list -c


H265

I hope that will help you,

Benjamin,

I have an imx8mm and imx8mq that I can test. Do you happen to have a
repo that I can clone to test this? The imx8m stuff is spread around
between the media tree and the imx tree since it hasn't been fully
merged yet.

thanks,

adam
