Hi Ming,

Align upwards buffer size for both encoder and decoder.
and leave the picture resolution unchanged.

For decoder, the risk of memory out of bounds can be avoided.
For both encoder and decoder, the driver will lift the limitation of
resolution alignment.

For example, the decoder can support jpeg whose resolution is 227x149

I doubt 227x149 is working. I have tried 127x127, with your patch applied,
both on encoder and decoder, the image does not look ok. The
126x127 seems to work. Having an odd resolution seems strange, I see not
even gstreamer supports it (tried videotestsrc & filesink with BGR,
127x128 produces a 128x128 size).

We need to gain more clarity on this one.
And when we do, if we really can support any arbitrary resolution, from both
the jpeg core and wrapper point of view, we have stuff to clean up.
The assumption that I started with was, as stated in the comments:
* The alignment requirements for the resolution depend on the format,
* multiple of 16 resolutions should work for all formats.
* Special workarounds are made in the driver to support NV12 1080p.
With h_align/v_align defined in mxc_formats[].

Hi Mirela,
I think you are confusing picture size and buffer size.
In this patch, driver will enlarge the buffer size to align 16x16. But let the picture size unchanged.
And if you display the decoded 227x149 picture directly on imx8q, you may meet some drm error, and the display looks abnormal,
The error message like below:
[ 36.381015] [drm] [CRTC:38:crtc-0] dpu_crtc_atomic_flush: wait for content shdld done timeout
[ 36.389630] [drm] [CRTC:38:crtc-0] dpu_crtc_atomic_flush: FrameGen requests to read empty FIFO
[ 49.469022] [drm] [CRTC:38:crtc-0] dpu_crtc_atomic_flush: wait for content shdld done timeout

But if you save the decoded picture data in to a file, then check the data, you will find it's correct.
And if you treat the decoded buffer as a picture with resolution 240x160, and with some padding content, it's also correct.

So in my first patch, I let the driver report the aligned resolution in g_fmt,
and implement a g_selection to report the actual resolution through the crop info.
but this solution will fail your labgrid jpeg test.

So I choose the current solution that keep the actual picture size, and align upwards the buffer size.

The display of 227x149 is abnormal, I think it's not the jpeg codec's limitation, but the imx8q drm's limitation.

I did not try to display with gstreamer. I just tried to generate some test files. For example, this one:
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc pattern=smpte75 num-buffers=1 ! video/x-raw,width=227,height=149,format=BGR ! filesink location=bgr_227x149.raw
generates a 228x149 file, not 227x149, with the 228 column black (padding?). For visualizing, I used vooya, on host machine.

I then tried the pattern generator: https://github.com/NXPmicro/nxp-patgen
./patgen.exe -pix_fmt yuv444 -p colorbar -vsize 227x149

This generates a raw yuv444 227x149, without padding.
I used the unit test application to encode it.
The resulting jpeg is reported by JPEGSnoop to have Image Size = 227x149, and it looks bad, every line is shifted, as if it would have 228 width.
I did not check yet to see if any adjustments are needed in the unit test.

I'll send you my test files.

Regards,
Mirela


And in my opinion, I prefer the first solution that implementing a g_selection to report the actual picture size.
If you can accept that changing your labgrid jpeg testcase, I can prepare a v3 patch to switch to this solution.

Ming


the encoder can support nv12 1080P, won't change it to 1920x1072.
