Enable the direct rendering with linear surfaces if the negotiated src caps
are video/x-raw without features.
Pass also the caps, since they are needed to know the requested caps features.
Just as we did in ensure_sinkpad_allocator(), let's move the error message
into the ensure_srcpad_allocator() from the caller,
gst_vaapi_plugin_base_decide_allocation()
Instead of receiving the GstVideoInfo structure as parameter, get the original
GstCaps from ensure_sinkpad_buffer_pool(), in this way we could decide better
which allocator instantiate.
If the allocator was configured to use direct upload or rendering, the
generated derived image created at mapping needs to be destroyed after
unmapping, because, in order to process the surface, it should not be marked
as "busy" by the driver.
The way to experiment with the direct rendering is through and internal
compiler pre-processor flag.
The current change set enables a way to specified at run-time, as a flag
passed to the allocator at instanciation time.
This patch is to change the inheritance of GstVaapiDisplay to GstObject,
instead of GstVaapiMiniObject. In this way we can use all the available
infrastructure for GObject/GstObject such as GstTracer, GIR, etc.
In addition, a new debug category for GstVaapiDisplay is created to make it
easier to trace debug messages. It is named "vaapidisplay" and it transverse
all the VA display backends (DRM, GLX, EGL, Wayland, ...)
This patch is a step forward to expose GstVaapiDisplay for users in a future
library.

When caps reconfiguration is called, the new downstream frame size might be
different. Thus, if the downstream caps change,the display's texture map is

In addition, during pipeline shutdown, textures in texture map have to be

is a dangerous circular reference.

This patch improves performance when glimagesink uploads a GL texture.
It caches the GStVaapiTexture instances in GstVaapiDisplay{GLX,EGL}, using an
instance of GstVaapiTextureMap, so our internal texture structure can be found
by matching the GL texture id for each frame upload process, avoiding the

set_format() is called by upstream when the stream capabilites has changed.
Before, if the new stream is compatible with the old one the VA decoder was

when the upstreamer parsers gets more details of the stream, such as the
framerate. Hence, when the src caps are negotiates, the further sink caps

Check earlier if upstream video source has activated the dmabuf-import
io-mode (hack to disappear soon), thus we can avoid the re-assignation of a
new allocator.
Add the method gst_allocator_get_vaapi_image_size() for the
GstVaapiVideoAllocator, which gets the size of the allocated images with the
current video info.
This method replaces the direct call to the allocator's image info when the
pool is configured.
Depends on media, video size is sometimes updated with new allocator.
It leads to dismatch between bufferpool's set size and real allocated buffer size.
In this case, it causes every buffer is freed during release in bufferpool,
which should be reused. This affects performance.

The VA driver is tracked through the files VA_DRIVERS_PATH/*_drv_video.so,
where VA_DRIVERS_PATH is the one defined in libva package configuration. Also,
the environment variables LIBVA_DRIVERS_PATH and LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME are tracked

This is a fix for a regression of previous commit, which updates the filters

pass-through mode is enabled.
If new filtering parameter is set during playback, it makes it reconfiguring,

Calling drain() vmethod means "decode any data it can at this point, but that
more data may arrive after". Hence, vaapidecode should check if there is data
in the output adapter and process them, without destroying the decoded picture
buffer (dpb).
Since this operation is done by gst_vaapidecode_internal_flush(), the operation
was refactored into a new function gst_vaapidecode_flush_output_adapter().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768652
Calling flush() vmethod means "to flush all remaining data from the decoder
without pushing it downstream".
Nonetheless flush() is calling gst_vaapidecode_internal_flush(), which calls
gst_video_decoder_have_frame() if there is still something in the input
adapter, which may push buffers to downstream by calling handle_frame().
This patch changes this behavior by calling gst_vaapidecode_purge() rather
than gst_vaapidecode_internal_flush(), which does what we want: flushes the VA
decoder and releases all the rest of decoded frames.

This patch is a fix for my bad review of commit 6d73ca8d. The element should

There's no need to check for the display in the plugin object when

Get the pool config just before use it, to avoid a memory leak if the
allocator cannot be instantiated. Similarly, return FALSE if the configuration
cannot be set, avoid keep a not used allocator in the pool.
Instead of instantiating an allocator per vaapivideobufferpool, only one
allocator is instantiated per element's pad and shared among future pools.
If the pad's caps changes, the allocator is reset.

Originally, vaapivideobufferpool has a set of boolean variables for the

Since gstreamer-vaapi is coupled with gstreamer releases, there is no need to
keep compatibility definition.
This patch removes the definition of
GST_BUFFER_POOL_OPTION_VIDEO_GL_TEXTURE_UPLOAD_META since it is in
gst-plugins-base version 1.2.2
This is a helper function to improve the readability of
ensure_sinkpad_buffer_pool(). It makes clearer when the buffer pool needs to be
re-instantiated.
This buffer pool may still be processing buffers when a caps renegotiation is
done. This one-liner patch deactivates the pool to drain it before it
de-allocation.
Right now, the decoders create a buffer pool for their sink pad which is not
used at all, because the decoders have never proposed it to upstream.
This patch avoids the buffer pool instantiating when the element inherits from
the GstVideoDecoder class.
This patch is a bit of optimization, since the bufferpool configuration is get
when the pool is created. Hence, we only need to request it when the pool from
the allocation query is reused.
If the offered pool in decide_allocation() vmethod doesn't have the
VAAPI_VIDEO_META option, it is destroyed immediatly and the pointer cleared,
so it could be created later.
When validating the caps from bufferpool config, this patch distinguishes the
error from no caps received (NULL) from the invalid caps (cannot be converted
into GstVideoInfo structure).
Use GST_{ERROR,WARNING}_OBJECT instead of GST_{ERROR,WARNING}, thus the logs
will show the name of the vaapipluginbase instance that failed.
Also, the code-style is fixed, where some error labels need to be surrounded
by braces.
gst_video_info_set_format() and gst_video_info_from_caps() call, internally,
gst_video_info_init(), hence it is not required to call it before them. This
patch removes these spurious calls.
Instead of a dummy alloc() vmethod, the allocator instance set the flag
GST_ALLOCATOR_FLAG_CUSTOM_ALLOC, which is used by the framework to avoid call
gst_allocator_alloc() on the allocator.
This function helper make sense for GStreamer 1.2, but it is not helpful for
greater version since the validation is already done in the API implementation.
Thus, it is removed.
Instead of using gst_video_info_to_caps () to generated the fixed src caps,
this patch enables the first step for caps negotiation with a possible
following caps filter.
_get_preferred_caps() will traverse the possible src caps looking for the one
wit the preferred feature and the preferred color format. Then the color
format, the frame size and the frame rate are fixated.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758548
Instead of the allowed_srcpad_caps variable, this patch uses the othercaps
from fixate_caps() vmethod to find the preferred caps feature and color
format.

When running transform_caps() vmethod, returning the srcpad caps, the caps are

are stored.

If the backend driver vendor string is not in a white-list, and the
environment variable GST_VAAPI_ALL_DRIVERS is not set either, the decoder will
change it state from NULL to READY, hence the auto-plug mechanism will look
for another decoder.

and the element has a valid GstVaapiDisplay instance.

In bug 757598 was added the set_context() vmethod chain up in
GstVaapiPluginBase. But it is buggy, since the parent_class address is
assigned to the last element which called gst_vaapi_plugin_base_class_init().
No error has shown up since none of the element's base classes redefined
set_context() vmethod from GstElement, so always the correct function was
called. Still this code is wrong and this patch make it right.
Since set_context() is the same code, a macro is used to implement that code
in all the gst-vaapi elements.

Since commit 859a2b2, in vaapidecode, allocation query can be different from
the negotiated caps.
When connecting the vaapidecoder to the vaapipostprocessor, the last one will
resize the frame to the negotiated, if and only if, some other parameter is
activated to avoid the passthrough. If it is not, the surface won't be mapped
into a image. If not, the image won't be resized and the output buffer would be
mapped.
This patch will break the passthrough if the allocation query is different
from the negotiation caps, forcing the resizing.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765095
Instead of using the srcpad template caps for filtering the peer caps, the
function gst_vaapi_find_preferred_caps_feature(), now receives a new parameter
for the element's allowed caps.

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765223

saved if the out format is used for both: in and out. Thus the code is more
readable.

If the downstream feature is system memory, the surface has to be mapped,

way to know them before hand.
