[PATCH v2 0/3] Add Amlogic video decoder driver

From: Maxime Jourdan
Date: Tue Sep 11 2018 - 11:09:54 EST


Hi everyone,

This patch series adds support for the Amlogic video decoder,
as well as the corresponding dt bindings for GXBB/GXL/GXM chips.

It features decoding for the following formats:
- MPEG 1
- MPEG 2

The following formats will be added in future patches:
- MJPEG
- MPEG 4 (incl. Xvid, H.263)
- H.264
- HEVC (incl. 10-bit)

The following formats' development has still not started, but they are
supported by the hardware:
- VC1
- VP9

The code was made in such a way to allow easy inclusion of those formats
in the future.

The decoder is single instance.

Files:
- vdec.c handles the V4L2 M2M logic
- esparser.c manages the hardware bitstream parser
- vdec_helpers.c provides helpers to DONE the dst buffers as well as
various common code used by the codecs
- vdec_1.c manages the VDEC_1 block of the vdec IP
- codec_mpeg12.c enables decoding for MPEG 1/2.
- vdec_platform.c links codec units with vdec units
(e.g vdec_1 with codec_mpeg12) and lists all the available
src/dst formats and requirements (max width/height, etc.),
per compatible chip.

Firmwares are necessary to run the vdec. They can currently be found at:
https://github.com/chewitt/meson-firmware

It was tested primarily with ffmpeg's v4l2-m2m implementation. For instance:
$ ffmpeg -c:v mpeg2_v4l2m2m -i sample_mpeg2.mkv -f null -

Note: This patch series depends on
"[PATCH v3 0/3] soc: amlogic: add meson-canvas"
https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/10573763/

The v4l2-compliance results are available below the patch diff.

Changes since v1 [0]:
- use named interrupts in the bindings
- rewrite description in the bindings doc
- don't include the dts changes in the patch series
- fill the vb2 queues locks
- fill the video_device lock
- use helpers for wait_prepare and wait_finish vb2_ops
- remove unnecessary usleep in between esparser writes.
Extensive testing of every codec on GXBB/GXL didn't reveal
any fails without it, so just remove it.
- compile v4l2_compliance inside the git repo
- Check for plane number/plane size to pass the latest v4l2-compliance test
- Moved the single instance check (returning -EBUSY) to start/stop streaming
The check was previously in queue_setup but there was no great location to
clear it except for .close().
- Slight rework of the way CAPTURE frames are timestamped for better accuracy
- Implement PAR reporting via VIDIOC_CROPCAP
