DMABuf allocator already implements DMABuf Sync, meaning that doing
mmap/munmap (unless the mode have changed) is not required. In fact, on
systems with IOMMU it makes the kernel redo the mmu table which is visible
in the CPU usage.
This change reduces CPU usage when decoding
bbb_sunflower_2160p_60fps_normal.mp4 on RK3399 SoC from over 30% to
around 15%.

Implementation of mem_copy() virtual method for GstVaAllocator.
It's a deep copy where a new VA memory is popped out from the pool or,
if pool is empty, a new memory is allocated. The original memory is
mapped to read, and if its VAImage is not derived and size to copy is
the whole surface, the mapped VAImage of the original memory is put in
the new memory. Otherwise a slow memcpy is done between both memories.

The picture buffer (V4L2 CAPTURE buffer) was being released immediatly
when the request was done. This was problematic since even after the
request is done, the picture buffer might still be used as a reference
and should not be reused for further decoding yet.
This change effectively bind the picture buffer lifetime to the request.
So that if the picture is never showned (decode only frame) or the request
queue is full before the buffer is displayed, the picture buffer will
remain alive.

Different VA drives might have different definitions for RGB32 color
formats because different bit interpretation. Sadly the specification
doesn't clarify these interpretations. So VA users have to figure out
what's the correct mapping with it's rendering color format
definition.
This patch aims to fix the static map structure after the
VAImageFormats are queried. There is another static map with the
different interpretations of the RGB32 formats, and compare them with
the given VAImageFormat, then with the GStreamer color format, update
the mapping table.
Finally, some RGB32 color formats were added.

If the application did not define one yet, define our own
VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE that is independent of the
architecture.
Vulkan, by default, provides a define that depends on the architecture,
which causes the symbol type to be different. This causes an
architecture dependent .gir file, which then causes multilib
installation problems because the .gir files can't be shared.
Make it possible to override the format specifier and provide
a default one that is compatible with the default non dispatchable
handle.

vapostproc tries to be in passthrough mode as much as possible. But
they might be situations where the user might force to process the
frames. For example, when upstream sets the crop meta and the user
wants VA do that cropping, rather than downstream.
For those situations this property will disable the passthrough mode,
if it's enabled.

If incoming buffers have crop meta it's done by vapostproc, iif
vapostproc is not in passthrough mode and downstream doesn't handle
it.
This patch announces the crop meta API in proposed bufferpool, while
it stops filtering meta APIs, since it was only filter crop api.
Also if downstream supports crop and video metas, vapostporoc
announces both meta APIs in upstream bufferpool.
Finally, the meta is removed from the buffer if the crop is enabled.

This plugin, for decoders more concretely, assumes that a VA config
can do certain color conversions when mapping frames onto CPU's
memory.
This assumption was valid for i965 and Gallium drivers which generates
valid outputs in bitstreams testers (v.gr. fluster). Nonetheless, iHD,
even when it generates acceptable rendered frames, output's MD5 of
tests weren't valid.
This patch append the image formats, for color conversion when mapping
to memory, for non-iHD drivers.

Major changes:
* GstD3D11Allocator: This allocator is now device-independent object
which can allocate GstD3D11Memory object for any GstD3D11Device.
User can get this object via gst_allocator_find(GST_D3D11_MEMORY_NAME)
* GstD3D11PoolAllocator: A new allocator implementation for texture pool.
From now on GstD3D11BufferPool will make use of this memory pool allocator
to avoid frequent texture reallocation. That usually happens because
of buffer copy (gst_buffer_make_writable for example)
In addition to that, GstD3D11BufferPool will provide GstBuffer with
GstVideoMeta, because CPU access to a GstD3D11Memory without GstVideoMeta
is almost impossible since GPU drivers needs padding for stride alignment.

We've been doing retry with 1ms sleep if DecoderBeginFrame()
returned E_PENDING which means application should call
DecoderBeginFrame() again because GPU is busy.
The 1ms sleep() during retry would result in usually about 15ms delay

To improve throughput performance, this commit will enable
high precision clock only for NVIDIA platform since
DecoderBeginFrame() call on the other GPU vendors seems to

When we transform the caps from the sink to src, or vice versa, the
"caps" passed to us may only contain parts of the features. Which
makes our vpp lose some feature in caps and get a negotiation error.

DMA features to it, making it a full feature caps. Then, clipping it
with the pad template.

For reverse playback, we are always copying decoded
frame to downstream buffer. So the pool size can be
and need to be large enough.
In case that forward playback, however, we need to restrict
the max pool size for performance reason. Otherwise decoder
will keep copying decoded texture to downstream buffer pool
if decoding is faster than downstream throughput
performance and also there are queue element between them.

Decoder might be able to copy decoded texture to the other buffer pool
during playback depending on context. In that case, copied one
has no D3D11_BIND_DECODER bind flag.
If we used ID3D11VideoProcessor previously for decoder texture,
and incoming texture supports ID3D11VideoProcessor as well even if it has no
D3D11_BIND_DECODER flag (having D3D11_BIND_RENDER_TARGET for example),
allow zero-copying instead of using our fallback texture.
Frequent conversion tool change (between ID3D11VideoProcessor and generic shader)
might result in inconsistent image quality.

Direct3D11 objects are COM, and most COM C APIs are verbose
(C++ is a little better). So, by using C++ APIs, we can make code

utilized, that is very helpful for avoiding error-prone COM refcounting

Added helper function _update_passthrough() which will define and set
the pass-through mode of the filter, and it'll either reconfigure both
pads or it will just mark the src pad for renegotiation or nothing at
all.
There are cases where both pads have to be reconfigured (direction
changed, for example), other when just src pad has to (filters
updated) or none (changing to ready state).
The requirement of renegotiation depends on the need to enable/disable
its VA buffer pools.
This patch sets pass-through mode by default, so the buffer pools
aren't allocated if no filtering/direction operations are defined,
which is the correct behavior.

3) SPS update without resolution change, only required DPB size is updated to 6

To convert decoded texture into other format, downstream would use
video processor instead of shader. In order for downstream to

The AV1 codec needs to support the film grain feature. When the film
grain feature is enabled, we need two surfaces as the output of the
decoded picture, one without film grain effect and the other one with
it. The first one acts as the reference and is needed for later pictures'
reconstruction, and the second one is the real display output.
So we need to attach another aux surface to the gst buffer/mem and make
that aux surface as the target of vaBeginPicture.

One problem that va dmabuf allocator had is when preparing a buffer from
dmabuf memories in the allocator pool, specially when a buffer is composed by
several memories. This memories have to be by certain number and in certain
order.
This patch stores the number of memories and their address in order when a
dmabuf-based buffer is created and when preparing a buffer, it is reconstructed
with this info.
Finally, instead of pushing the memories as soon as they are unrefed, they are
hold until GstVaBufferSurface's ref_mems_count reaches zero (all the memories
related with that buffer/surface are unrefed). Until that happen, all the
memories are pushed back into the queue, locked, assuring that all the memories
related with a single buffer (with the same surface) remain contiguous, so the
buffer reconstruction is assured.

Instead of removing memories from buffers at reset_buffer()/release_buffer() the
bufferpool operation is kept as originally designed, still the allocator pool is
used too. Thus, this patch restores the buffer size configuration while removing
release_buffer(), reset_buffer() and acquire_buffer() vmethods overloads.
Then, when the bufferpool base class decides to discard a buffer, the VA
surface-based memory is returned to the allocator pool when its last reference
is freed, and later reused if a new buffer is allocated again.

There were two problems with frame copy:

transform_size() basetransform vmethod is used when there's no output buffer
pool and allocates a system memory buffer. With VA this cannot be allowed, since

Unlike other stateless decoder implementations (e.g., VA),
our DPB pool cannot be grown since we are using
texture array (pre-allocated, fixed-size d3d11 texture pool).
So, if there's no more available texture to use,
there's no way other than copying it to downstream's
d3d11 buffer pool. Otherwise deadlock will happen.

Starting from this patch, all queue and dequeue operation happening
on V4L2 is now abstracted with the request. Buffers are dequeued

decoders, this change reduces the memory footprint by allocating only
two bitstream buffers.

Add a way to support drawing on application's texture instead of
usual window handle.
To make use of this new feature, application should follow below step.
1) Enable this feature by using "draw-on-shared-texture" property
2) Watch "begin-draw" signal
3) On "begin-draw" signal handler, application can request drawing
by using "draw" signal action. Note that "draw" signal action
should be happen before "begin-draw" signal handler is returned
NOTE 1) For texture sharing, creating a texture with
D3D11_RESOURCE_MISC_SHARED_KEYEDMUTEX flag is strongly recommend
if possible because we cannot ensure sync a texture
which was created with D3D11_RESOURCE_MISC_SHARED
and it would cause glitch with ID3D11VideoProcessor use case.
NOTE 2) Direct9Ex doesn't support texture sharing which was
created with D3D11_RESOURCE_MISC_SHARED_KEYEDMUTEX. In other words,
D3D11_RESOURCE_MISC_SHARED is the only option for Direct3D11/Direct9Ex interop.
NOTE 3) Because of missing synchronization around ID3D11VideoProcessor,
If shared texture was created with D3D11_RESOURCE_MISC_SHARED,
d3d11videosink might use fallback texture to convert DXVA texture
to normal Direct3D texture. Then converted texture will be
copied to user-provided shared texture.
* Why not use generic appsink approach?
In order for application to be able to store video data
which was produced by GStreamer in application's own texture,
there would be two possible approaches,
one is copying our texture into application's own texture,
and the other is drawing on application's own texture directly.
The former (appsink way) cannot be a zero-copy by nature.
In order to support zero-copy processing, we need to draw on
application's own texture directly.
For example, assume that application wants RGBA texture.
Then we can imagine following case.
"d3d11h264dec ! d3d11convert ! video/x-raw(memory:D3D11Memory),format=RGBA ! appsink"
^
|_ allocate new Direct3D texture for RGBA format
In above case, d3d11convert will allocate new texture(s) for RGBA format
and then application will copy again the our RGBA texutre into
application's own texture. One texture allocation plus per frame GPU copy will hanppen
in that case therefore.
Moreover, in order for application to be able to access
our texture, we need to allocate texture with additional flags for
application's Direct3D11 device to be able to read texture data.
That would be another implementation burden on our side
But with this MR, we can configure pipeline in this way
"d3d11h264dec ! d3d11videosink".
In that way, we can save at least one texture allocation and
per frame texutre copy since d3d11videosink will convert incoming texture
into application's texture format directly without copy.
* What if we expose texture without conversion and application does
conversion by itself?
As mentioned above, for application to be able to access our texture
from application's Direct3D11 device, we need to allocate texture
in a special form. But in some case, that might not be possible.
Also, if a texture belongs to decoder DPB, exposing such texture
to application is unsafe and usual Direct3D11 shader cannot handle
such texture. To convert format, ID3D11VideoProcessor API needs to
be used but that would be a implementation burden for application.
