The base va decoder's video_align is just used for calculation the
real decoded buffer's width and height. It does not have meaning
for the VideoMeta, because it does not align to the real picture
in the output buffer. We will use VideoCropMeta to replace it later.

The base va decoder's video_align is just used for calculation the
real decoded buffer's width and height. While the gst_video_info_align
just calculate the offset and stride based on the video_align. But
all the offsets and strides are overwritten in gst_va_dmabuf_allocator_try
or gst_va_allocator_try, which make that calculation useless.

We add 12 bits entries into this default mapping. And the old mapping
is not precise. For example, the NV12 should not be used as the default
mapping for VA_RT_FORMAT_YUV422 and VA_RT_FORMAT_YUV444, it is even not
a 422 or 444 format.

We already declare the support of HEVC screen content extension profiles
in the profile mapping list, but we fail to generate the correct VA picture
parameters buffers. This may cause the GPU hang.

The function of gst_h265_get_profile_from_sps() is better than the
function gst_h265_profile_tier_level_get_profile() when we recognize
the profile of the stream, becaue it considers the compatibility.
It is also used by h265parse to recognize the profile. So it is
better to keep the same behaviour with the parse and other decoders.

VA-API HEVC decoding needs to known which is the last slice of a
picture, but slices are processed sequencially, so we know the
last slice until all the slices are already pushed into the
VABuffer array.
In order to mark the last slice, they are pushed into the
VABuffer array with a delay of one slice: the first slice is
hold, and when the second slice come, the first one is pushed
while holding the second, and so on. Finally, at end_picture(),
the last slice is marked and pushed into the array.

The VA acceleration now has more usages in linux-like platforms,

We have only one copy of gst_va_base_dec_parent_class inside the
vabasedec, so it can not handle the case when there are multi va
decoders inside one pipeline. The pipeline:
gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=xxx.h264 ! h264parse \
! vah264dec ! msdkh265enc ! vah265dec ! fakesink
generates a assertion of
"invalid cast from 'GstVaH264Dec' to 'GstH265Decoder"
and gets a crash.
We should keep the parent_class for each decoder type.

VADecPictureParameterBufferAV1.mode_control_fields.bits were filled

The problem is for uploading YUV frames using derived images, is that
derived images imply tiling, so frames are wrongly uploaded.
Though derived for reading might work we cannot know the Intel graphics
generation to validate the caching. Overall, it's safer to disable derived
images for i965.

iHD driver sets a tiled DRM modifier if surface's usage hint is set to
VPP_WRITE. This result in a garbled rendering when using glimagesink.
This patch changes the usage hint to generic if the caps feature is
DMABuf. Either way only iHD driver, so far, uses the usage hint flag.

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.

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.

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 new struct describes the input and output GstBuffers to

When an input buffer needs to be copied into a VA memory, it's
required to create a buffer pool. This patch uses the
propose_allocation() caps to instantiate the allocator and pool,
instead of the negotiated caps, which rather represents the resolution

Derived images are direct maps to surfaces bits, but in Intel Gen7 to
Gen9, that memory is not cachable, thus reading can be very slow (it
might produce timeout is tests such as fluster).
This patch tries first to define if derived images are possible, and
later use them only if mapping is not for reading.

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.

After the VA filter creation, when changing the element's state from NULL
to READY, immediatly checks for any filter operation requested by the user.
If any, the passthrough mode is disabled early, so there's no need for a
future renegotiation.

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.
The correct way should be:
Cleaning the format and resolution of that caps, but adding all VA,
DMA features to it, making it a full feature caps. Then, clipping it
with the pad template.

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.

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.

In 6ae24948 the pipeline buffer destroy were removing assuming it
wasn't required. Nonetheless, debugging the code it looks like a
buffer leak in iHD driver since the ID of the buffer kept increasing.
The difference now is that first the filter buffers are destroy first
and later the pipeline buffer.

Just like the decoder, the vapostproc also needs to copy the output
buffer to raw buffer if downstream elements only supports raw caps
and does not support the video meta.
The pipeline like:
gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=xxxx ! h264parse ! vah264dec ! \
vapostproc ! capsfilter caps=video/x-raw,width=55,height=128 ! \
filesink location=xxx
needs this logic to dump the data correctly.

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:
1. The input video info are from the format color, not form the allocated VA
surface, it's needed to update the sink video info according with the
allocator's data.
2. The parameters of `gst_video_frame_copy()` were backwards.

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
it needs VASurfaces to process.
Thus transform_size() is not required, but to play safe let's return FALSE.

The vabasedec's display and decoder are created/destroyed between
the gst_va_base_dec_open/close pair. All the data and event handling
functions are between this pair and so the accessing to these pointers
are safe. But the query function can be called anytime. So we need to:
1. Make these pointers operation in open/close and query atomic.
2. Hold an extra ref during query function to avoid it destroyed.

Add the helper function _get_surface_id() which extracts the
VASurfaceID from the passed picture. This function gets the surface of
the next and previous reference picture.
Instead of if-statements, this refactor uses a switch-statement with a
fall-through, for P-type pictures, making the code a bit more readable.
Also it adds quirks for gallium driver, which cannot handle invalid
surfaces as forwarding nor backwarding references, so the function fails.
Also iHD cannot handle them, but to avoid failing, the current picture
is used as self-reference.

When missing the reference frames, we should not just discard the current
frame. Some streams have group of picture header. It is an optional header
that can be used immediately before a coded I-frame to indicate to the decoder
if the first consecutive B-pictures immediately following the coded I-frame can
be reconstructed properly in the case of a random access.
In that case, the B frames may miss the previous reference and can still be
correctly decoded. We also notice that the second field of the I frame may
be set to P type, and it only ref its first field.
We should not skip all those frames, and even the frame really misses the
reference frame, some manner such as inserting grey picture should be used
to handle these cases.
The driver crashes when it needs to access the reference picture while we set
forward_reference_picture or backward_reference_picture to VA_INVALID_ID. We
now set it to current picture to avoid this. This is just a temp manner.
