I looked a bit more at the reverse-engineering data for that chip, and what
should happen is that the pic_order_cnt_val should be set into pic_order_cnt[0].
The code handling this later on does:
struct cedrus_h265_sram_frame_info frame_info = {
.top_pic_order_cnt = cpu_to_le32(pic_order_cnt[0]),
.bottom_pic_order_cnt = cpu_to_le32(field_pic ?
pic_order_cnt[1] :
pic_order_cnt[0]),
Now, the pic_oder_cnt[1] is the other field. Things is that the two field won't
endup in the same frame buffer magically. In fact we'll need some tinkering on
how this could possibly be supported. In GStreamer we only have the DXVA based
decoder that supports field decoding, and each field endups in their own surface
(our buffers). This looks more natural for Hantro here at least. Though perhaps
there exist stride trick to interleave them, but then we need special care for
the extra buffers. I think we need to think through what we want to offer here,
anything from SEQ or interleaved buffer will require some more thinking, while
alternate interlacing would be rather simple (handle by userland mostly) and
will be more portable. Even Cedrus should be usable in that mode by ignoring its
interleaving capability.
