This change add all the new RGB based format. Those format removes the
ambiguity with the ALPHA channel. Some other missing multiplanar format
has been added with some additional cleanup.
If something in /dev/video* get added, removed or replaced, we need to
probe the devices again in order to ensure the dynamic devices are up to
date.

There was some miss-match in the implementation. This makes it
concistent, though functionally it worked, except the video decoder
output-io-mode getter.
This fixes wrong mapping for sRGB as in GStreamer sRGB correctly
apply to RGB formats, while in V4L2 it's an alias for sYCC. Also
add support for the new quantization (range), ycbcr_encoding (matrix)
and xfer_func (transfer) enumeration.
This is the latest from media tree. This should enable more development
of the v4l2 elements. This includes new flags requires to fix draining
path in decoder, colorimetry and much more.
The v4l2 device restarts the sequence counter in case of streamoff/streamon,
the GST offset values are supposed to increment strictly monotonic, so
adjust the sequence counter/offset values in case of caps
renegotiation.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745441
In case of v4l2 driver filled offset/sequence values add frame
loss detection (and write a warning message).
Move offset meta data setting and frame loss checking after the
timestamp adjustment code to get proper timestamps for the
warning message.

If propose_allocation() had not been called yet, it was possible that the driver was not asked at all.
In buffer pool: Consider minimum number of buffers requested by driver when setting config.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=746834
Allow renegotiation to happen when buffers have returned after an allocation
query. As the allocation query is serialized, all buffers from the pool
should have returned and we can stop it to create a new one for the
new format
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682770
For output device, we should not update the buffer with flags and
timestamp when we dequeue. The information in the v4l2_buffer is not
meaningful and it breaks the case where the buffer is rendered at
multiple places.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745438
Ensure gst_v4l2_buffer_pool_release_buffer() releases the associated
GstV4l2MemoryGroup. In particular, this allows for closing the DMABUF
handles prior to instantiating new ones.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745443
As it's very common, handle driver not setting field in buffers
by using the field value from the format. This workaround a long time
bug in UVC driver. For even buggier driver, we simply assume
progressive as before. We also only warn once, to avoid spamming.
S_CROP ioctl is write-only and the device can adjust crop rectangle so
we query back the crop configuration after each S_CROP to know what has
been done.

In the V4L2 single-planar API, when format is semi-planar/planar,
drivers expect the planes to be contiguous in memory.
So this commit change the way we handle semi-planar/planar format
(n_planes > 1) when we use the single-planar API (group->n_mem == 1).
To check that planes are contiguous and have expected size, ie: no
padding. We test the fact that plane 'i' start address + plane 'i'
expected size equals to plane 'i + 1' start address. If not, we return
in error.
Math are done in bufferpool rather than in allocator because the
former is aware of video info.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=738013
Offset are relative to the buffer and there is no guarantee substracting
them will give us the plane size. So we let bufferpool make the math as
it is more aware of video info than allocator and pass a size array to
allocator import function.

When there is no allocation parameters in the query, enable copy
threshold. When this threshold is reached, the buffer pool will start
copying when the pool reaches a critical level. If the driver supports
CREATE_BUFS, this will be used instead.
When we hit emulated formats, we disable CREATE_BUFS since libv4l2
cope very badly with it. Also clear the allocator flags so we will
never try to allocate more buffers. This fixes failure when the copy
threshold is reached as we where calling CREATE_BUFS, which lead to
libv4l2 instability.
In the fraction 1 / 2. 1 is the numerator and 2 is the denominator.
The arguments of fraction gst_value_set_fractions() are value,
numerator and denominator.
Also, gst_value_set_fraction() fails if denominator is 0 for obvious
reasons.
When importing buffers from a downstream pool, we need to deactivate
that pool to ensure it will be usable again later. Relying on the
refcount to reach zero does not work, since elements like xvimagesink
keeps a reference on their proposed pool.
When memory (that has been shared using gst_memory_share()) are freed,
the memory (or the DMABUF FD) should not bee freed. These memories have
a parent. This also removes the extra _v4l2mem_free function and avoid
calling close twice on the DMABUF FD.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=744573
Replace the sink_query with new getcaps() virtual and use the proxy
helper with the probed caps. This allow upstream element taking decision
base on what is supported downstream.
v4l2loopback driver has a this nasty bug that if the queue is larger
then 2 buffers, it returns random index on dqbuf. So far we assumed
that the index was always right, which would lead to memory being
unref twice, and eventually crash.
As the buffer array is fixed size and small, it's safer to simply
use this static size to cleanup the buffers. This is also more
consistent with the rest. The associated method is no longer
required and can be dropped.
This partly revert to the old 1.2 behavior. Instead of keeping a
reference to the output buffer queued, we simply release them but
don't forward it to GstBufferPool. This way, the buffer pool don't
need to be flushed to be stopped.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=742074
Failing streamoff prevents allocator from being disposed hence
lead to device FD leak. There is no known cases where streamoff
may fails for which we'd still be streaming. streamoff is known
to fail when a device is being unplugged (in which case errno
19/ENODEV is set).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=732734
It looks like libv4l2 support for CREATE_BUF is incomplete. That
combine with existing bugs may lead to crash in GStreamer. These
check will make it robust by:
- Checking create buf index isn't an already in used index
- Checking that the index out of QUERYBUF matches the requested
index
Right now we try to be clever by detecting if device format have
changed or not, and skip setting format in this case. This is valid
behaviour with V4L2, but it's also very error prone. The rational
for not setting these all the time is for speed, though I can't
measure any noticeable gain on any HW I own. Also, until recently,
we where doing get/set on the format for each format we where
probing, making it near to impossible that the format would match.
This also fixes bug where we where skipping frame-rate setting if
format didn't change.

If v4l2_buffer.field is V4L2_FIELD_INTERLACED, we set corresponding
GstVideoBuffer flags depending on the video standard.
According to V4L2 specification, M/NTSC transmits the bottom field
first, all other standards the top field first.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737603
When libv4l2 emulates RW mode on top of MMAP devices, the queues are
only initialized on first read. The problem is that poll() will fail
if called before the queues are initialized and streaming. Workaround
this by doing a zero size read when pool is started in that IO mode.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740633
This patch fixes CREATE_BUFS support for capture devices. Initially we
would only try and allocate more buffers when the copy threshold
is reached. When the threshold was not set (needed) it would never
happen. Another problem is that on capture side, acquire returns
filled buffer, hence need to pool. We need to set a special flag to
force allocation to happen.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=741134
This allow skipping buffer flagged with ERROR that has no payload.
This is typical behaviour when a recovererable error occured during
capture in the driver, but that no valid data was ever written into that
buffer. This patch also translate V4L2_BUF_FLAG_ERROR into
GST_BUFFER_FLAG_CORRUPTED. Hence decoding error produce
by decoder due to missing frames will now be correctly marked. Finally,
this fixes a buffer leak when EOS is reached.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740040
If the v4l2 queue support dmabuf select this buffer pool mode
and update the query with allocator.
This patch only concern exporting dmabuf and not importing dmabuf
fd from downstream element.

Improve buffer validation by making sure each memory are the right
one and that each memory is writable. This fixes tearing issues in
case downstream uses gst_buffer_make_writable() or other type
of GstBuffer copy where memory are only reffed.

Rather than try and guess interlace support as part of checking supported
sizes, look for interlace support specifically in its own function.
As a cleanup, use V4L2_FIELD_ANY when probing sizes, which should result in
the driver doing the right thing.
With my capture setup, this gets me the following sample caps:
For 1080i resolution:
video/x-raw, format=(string)YUY2, width=(int)1920, height=(int)1080, pixel-aspect-ratio=(fraction)1/1, interlace-mode=(string)interleaved, framerate=(fraction){ 25/1, 30/1 }
For 720p resolution:
video/x-raw, format=(string)YUY2, width=(int)1280, height=(int)720, pixel-aspect-ratio=(fraction)1/1, interlace-mode=(string)progressive, framerate=(fraction){ 50/1, 60/1 }
For 576i/p resolution (both possible at the point of query):
video/x-raw, format=(string)YUY2, width=(int)720, height=(int)576, pixel-aspect-ratio=(fraction)1/1, interlace-mode=(string){ progressive, interleaved }, framerate=(fraction){ 25/1, 50/1 }
This, in turn, makes 576i work correctly; with the old code,
the caps would be interlace-mode=progressive for interlaced video.

On streamon failure, the queued buffer is not released from the
bufferpool class point of view because it is queued to the driver and
the flush logic is not performed since we are not in streaming state.
It causes the v4l2 bufferpool to always return that stop method failed
and to leak v4l2 objects and buffers.
This commit solve this by performing the flush logic in error case, ie
flushing the allocator and restoring queued buffer state to non-queued.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=738102
This will prevent deadlocks, but will also properly flush the pool and allocator
when going to READY state. It should also fix issues reported on mailing list
when seeking is performed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=738152
When the v4l2 device is an output device, the application shall set the
colorspace. So map GStreamer colorimetry info to V4L2 colorspace and set
on set_format. In case we have no colorimetry information, we try to
guess it according to pixel format and video size.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737579
This will prevent the converter to be picked automatically in case
someone implement dynamic converter selection support. I'd like this
to be ranked only for known device, as it's hard to be sure a device is
a converter suited for general purpose. Re-negotiation is also needed
before we can rank it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733607
Even though the UVC driver do a great deal of effort to prevent bad
timestamp to be sent to userspace, there still exist UVC hardware that
are so buggy that the timestamp endup nearly random. This code detect
and ignore timestamp from these drivers, making these camera usable.
This has been tested on both invalid and valid cameras, making sure it
does not trigger for valid cameras.

There is still around 18 drivers not yet ported to videobuf2. These driver
don't support freeing buffetrs through REQBUFS(0) hence for these the
memory type probing fails. In order to gain back our previous behaviour in
presence of these, we implement a workaround that assuming MMAP is
supported. Note that an allocator is only created for device with
STREAMING support in the device capabilities. In such case one of MMAP,
USERPTR and DMABUF is required. Though DMABUF came afterward, so is
not an option and in practice none of these drivers will only do USERPTR.

Since we can get the minimum number of buffers needed by an output
device to work, use it to set min_latency which will determine how many
buffers are queued.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736072
Most V4L2 ioctls like try_fmt will adjust input fields to match what the
hardware can do rather then returning -EINVAL. As is docmented here:
http://linuxtv.org/downloads/v4l-dvb-apis/vidioc-g-fmt.html
EINVAL is only returned if the buffer type field is invalid or not supported.
So upon requesting V4L2_FIELD_NONE devices which can only do interlaced
mode will change the field value to e.g. V4L2_FIELD_BOTTOM as only returning
half the lines is the closest they can do to progressive modes.
In essence this means that we've failed to get a (usable) progessive mode
and should fall back to interlaced mode.
This commit adds a check for having gotten a usable field value after the first
try_fmt, to force fallback to interlaced mode even if the try_fmt succeeded,
thereby fixing get_nearest_size failing on these devices.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735660
They may have been modified by the ioctl even if it failed. This also makes
the S_FMT fallback path try progressive first, making it consistent with the
preferred TRY_FMT path.
