Now that we can split GStreamer buffers over multiple v4l2 buffer, we may
endup waiting for these buffers to be processed. Avoid waiting for any of
the parts being processed. As a side effect, the pool will now try to
grow if the number of buffers is not sufficient, and will fail
otherwise.
This fixes a hang if the very first frame did not fit. In this case, the
driver will retrain that buffer until the capture is setup, but
GStreamer won't setup the capture until process() function have
returned.

The videoencoder base class uses getcaps() to ask a subclass for the caps in its
sink_query_default() implementation.
Replace the custom handling of the QUERY_CAPS in the v4l2videoenc with an
implementation of getcaps() that returns the caps that are supported by the
v4l2videoenc to return these caps in the query.
This getcaps() implementation also calls the provided proxy_getcaps(), which
sends a caps query to downstream. This fixes the v4l2videoenc element to respect
limits of downstream elements in a sink query.

The videoencoder base class always uses the negotiated allocator for allocating
coded buffers and ignores the negotiated buffer pool. Therefore, the
v4l2videoenc always has to copy buffers from the pool into the allocated
output buffers.
This breaks downstream elements that want to import the CAPTURE buffers of the
v4l2videoenc, since the v4l2videoenc copies the exported CAPTURE buffers and
sends the copies downstream.
Always use the CAPTURE buffer pool for acquiring CAPTURE buffers instead of
allocating the buffers in the base class.

If the capture pool is already active, like when handling gaps at the

In the current implementation, we support for most pixel format left
and top padding by changing the offset in the video meta. Though, to
align driver bytesused to the offset, we recalculate the offset, which
removed the modification we did before.
Instead, save the plane size, and truncate the driver reported bytesused
to the expected size, which ensures that the offsets still match. This
should also fix issues were the buffer size ended up bigger then the
pool size due to driver introduced padding.

In cases that encoder needs to reset format, there is race while draining.
v4l2videoenc finish() sends CMD_STOP command to driver, and desire to return
GST_FLOW_OK. But at this time, encoder CAPTURE may have dequeued the last
buffer and got eos. finish() return value changes to be GST_FLOW_EOS which
causes set format fail. So there is no need to check return value for finish()
when set format.
Also need to flush encoder after draining to make sure flush is finished.

Unfortunately streamoff does not flush the events, and this can cause all
sort of issues. Flush events on capture queue. We also return

Let the driver detects the change and reconfigure the capture side

In previous implementation that job was split between handle_frame and

When seek flush, gst v4l2 buffer pool flush is not atomic which will
lead double enqueue buffer (qbuf) issue, and v4l2 buffer pool qbuf is
also not atomic which will lead no free buffer found in the pool.

when regotiation happens, v4l2src will check if it can reuse current caps,
but we need check if current caps is subset of all query caps from downstream
instead of check it with query caps one by one.
Assuming that the current caps is not the subset of first caps from query caps,
it will go to try fmt. when try fmt success, v4l2src will make pending_set_fmt
to TRUE and going to reset.

The decoder needs to force another enumeration of the format. For
this it was clearing the v4l2object insternal list, leaving a fmtdesc
pointer pointing to freed memory. This patch clears the fmtdesc pointer
that has just been free. It also makes sure the probe function does not
use the cached formats list. The probe function will restore the current
fmtdesc pointer based on the currently configured pixelformat.

As we don't have anything smart in the fixation process, we may endup with
a format that has a lower bitdepth, even if downstream can handle higher
depth. it is notably the case when negotiating with deinterlace, which places
is non-passthrough caps before its passthrough one. This makes the generic
fixation prefer the formats natively supported by deinterlace element over
the HW 10bit format. As some HW can downscale 10bit to 8bit, this can break
10bit decoding.

Assuming that V4L2 CAPTURE devices always use one buffer per JPEG image, we can
always mark JPEGs provided by a V4L2 element as parsed.
The V4L2 elements require that JPEG images sent to V4L2 OUTPUT devices must
always be parsed.
This is necessary to link a V4L2 CAPTURE device with a V4L2 OUTPUT device
without explicitly marking the stream as parsed or adding a jpegparse into the
pipeline.

The input cropping is applied before composing the result to the

The `gst_v4l2_buffer_pool_dqbuf` function contains this ominous comment:
/* get our GstBuffer with that index from the pool, if the buffer was
* outstanding we have a serious problem.
*/
outbuf = pool->buffers[group->buffer.index];
Unfortunately it is common for buffers in _output_ buffer pools to be
both queued and outstanding at the same time. This can happen if the
upstream element keeps a reference to the buffer, or in an encoder
element itself when it keeps a reference to the input buffer for each
frame.
Since the current code doesn't handle this case properly we can end up
with crashes in other elements such as:
(gst-launch-1.0:32559): CRITICAL **: 17:33:35.740: gst_video_frame_map_id: assertion 'GST_IS_BUFFER (buffer)' failed
and:
(gst-launch-1.0:231): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: 00:16:20.882: write map requested on non-writable buffer
Both these crashes are caused by a race condition related to releasing
the same buffer twice from two different threads. If a buffer is queued
and outstanding this situation is possible:
**Thread 1**
- Calls `gst_buffer_unref` decrementing the reference count to zero.
- The core GstBufferPool object marks the buffer non-outstanding.
- Calls the V4L2 release buffer function.
- If the buffer is _not_ queued:
- Release it back to the free pool (containing non-queued buffers).
**Thread 2**
- Dequeues the queued output buffer.
- Marks the buffer as not queued.
- If the buffer is _not_ outstanding:
- Calls the V4L2 release buffer function.
- Release it back to the free pool (containing non-queued buffers).
If both of these threads run at exactly the same time there is a small
window where the buffer is marked both not outstanding and not queued
but before it has been released. In this case the buffer will be freed
twice causing the above crashes.
Unfortunately the variable recording whether a buffer is outstanding is
part of the core `GstBuffer` object and is managed by `GstBufferPool` so
it's not as straightforward as adding a mutex. Instead we can fix this
by additionally recording the buffer state in `GstV4l2BufferPool`, and
handle "internal" and "external" buffer release separately so we can
detect when a buffer becomes not outstanding.
In the new solution:
- The "external" buffer pool release and the "dqbuf" functions
atomically update the buffer state and determine if a buffer is still
queued or outstanding.
- Subsequent code and a new
`gst_v4l2_buffer_pool_complete_release_buffer` function can proceed to
release (or not) a buffer knowing that it's not racing with another
thread.
