This series add a HEVC backend to the Rockchip Video Decoder driver. Patch 1 add the new HEVC backend. Patch 2-3 add variants support to the driver. Patch 4 add support for a rk3288 variant. Patch 5 add a rk3328 variant to work around hw quirks. Patch 6-7 add device tree node for rk3288.It looks like I had a previous version of linuxtv-rkvdec-hevc-v2 branch locally and that also had this commit: - media: rkvdec: Keep decoder clocks gated Is that one no longer needed/useful/etc ? And 'chewitt' also had a commit to fix 8/10-bit selection: https://github.com/chewitt/linux/commit/4b93b05d2ca608bc23f1d52bcc32df926d435c7c "WIP: media: rkvdec: fix 8-bit/10-bit format selection" I haven't tried that one (yet), but did try an other variant with changing the ordering in rkvdec_hevc_decoded_fmts but that didn't work in my tests. (Can ofc be PEBKAC) Would that be useful? I do/did have consistent problems with playing 10-bit encoded video files.nvm about the 10-bit problem. It exists, but it's not restricted to HEVC as it also exists with with H.264 files.The referred patch is against some out-dated kernel. In mainline linux with have: if (sps->bit_depth_luma_minus8 == 0) { if (sps->chroma_format_idc == 2) return RKVDEC_IMG_FMT_422_8BIT; else return RKVDEC_IMG_FMT_420_8BIT; } else if (sps->bit_depth_luma_minus8 == 2) { if (sps->chroma_format_idc == 2) return RKVDEC_IMG_FMT_422_10BIT; else return RKVDEC_IMG_FMT_420_10BIT; } Which covers all cases supporte by the hardware. Chewitt seem to add a previously missing 10bit case, and forcing downconversion from 422 to 420. A downconversion is something to be chosen and applied by userspace, the kernel should pick a non-destructive format by default.
Please note that this patch is completely unrelated to this series, as it is for Detlev's WIP rkvdec2 driver [0] and for H.265 codec only - rkvdec2 similar to rkvdec(1) only supports NV12 and NV15 for H.265 codec and perfectly matches what is defined at [1].
