The type detection would lead to assertion as it would try
to create a device without having found any type for it. It
also didn't detect MPLANE devices properly.
The monitor sets the object->element object as a GstObject. This
works for debug traces, but will assert for ELEMENT_ERROR. This
was the only case where that could happen. Add a check for that.
After switching to using V4L2_CAP_DEVICE_CAPS we lost support for
multiplanar device types. After some research, it looks like
vcap.capabilities treated the multiplanar flag of output and capture
devices equally, but not the new device_caps.

A typo in gst_v4l2_probe_and_register() caused a build error when building
with --enable-v4l2-probe. Fixing it.
gstv4l2.c: In function 'gst_v4l2_probe_and_register':
gstv4l2.c:150:25: error: 'struct v4l2_capability' has no member named 'capabilitites'
device_caps = vcap.capabilitites;
The same physical device can export multiple devices. In
this case, the capabilities field now contains a union of
all caps available from all exported V4L2 devices alongside
a V4L2_CAP_DEVICE_CAPS flag that should be used to decide
what capabilities to consider. In our case, we need the
ones from the exported device we are using.

gst_v4l2_clear_error() doesn't work like g_clear_error(), it
doesn't NULLify the pointer, so set freed debug string to NULL
so it doesn't get freed again if gst_v4l2_clear_error() is
called twice on the error.

Instead of completely getting rid of the input buffer, copy
the metadata, the flags and the timestamp into an empty buffer.
This way the decoder base class can copy that information again
to the output buffer.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758424
This is to allow returning an error that can easily be sent as
message to the application if the element needs it. Using this
also allow ignoring errors.

v4l2src will renegotiate only if the format have changed. As of now,
it's not possible to change the allocationw without resetting the
camera. To avoid unwanted side effect, simply keep the old allocation
if no renegotiation is taking place. This fixes assertion and possible
failures in USERPTR or DMABUF import mode (when using downstream pools).

To change pixel aspect ratio from DAR to PAR, the necessary scaling factor
is DAR/PAR, not DAR*PAR.
For good measure, add debug output similar to the fixed-width and
fixed-height cases.

Instead of relying on the default colorimetry chosen by
gst_video_info_set_format(), set info.colorimetry from the
values returned by G_FMT. This allows decoders to propagate
their input colorimetry downstream.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=766383
Move the extraction of colorimetry parameters from struct v4l2_format and the
setting of the identity matrix for RGB formats into the function to avoid code
duplication.

gst_v4l2_probe_caps() returns the coded size, not the visible size. Subtract
the known padding from probed caps with the coded size before using them as
filter for caps negotiation with downstream elements.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=766382
The gst_v4l2_object_acquire_format() function is used by v4l2videodec to obtain
the currently set capture format. Since G_FMT returns the coded size, the
visible size needs to be obtained from the compose rectangle in order to
negotiate it with downstream elements. The G_CROP call hasn't worked on mem2mem
capture queues for a long time. Instead use the G_SELECTION call to obtain the
compose rectangle and only fall back to G_CROP for ancient kernels.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=766381
On modern kernels, the G/S_FMT ioctls will always fail using
V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OVERLAY with VFL_DIR_TX (e.g. real overlay out drivers)
since this is not the intented use (rather rx, according to v4l2 API doc).
Probably this is why the Video Output Overlay interface was created, so if
the driver advertises it we might as well use.
For old kernels (pre 2012) the old way might still work so keeping this for
compatibility.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=761165
Support for the updated V4L2_PIX_FMT_XRGB555 was added in commit
2538fee2fd however, when setting the format
for use in v4l2 ioctls, the old deprecated format is still used. Convert
this to the new accepted format type, as the preferred format.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=767300
v4l2src can cause an "infinite message loop" when a base control exposed as a
property is not provided by the device. In these cases, if in the warning message
handling for the bus, the GST_DEBUG_BIN_TO_DOT_FILE* category of functions are used,
the src lookup causes a new warning to be posted on the bus, causing a loop.
This patch changes the warning for these controls so they are not posted on the bus.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758703
A device can support more than one colorspace for a given image
dimension and pixel format. So we have to probe all the supported
colorspace and not only rely on the default one. Otherwise we could end
up with negotiation failure if the caps colorimetry field don't match
the v4l2 device default one even if the v4l2 could support such
colorimetry.
This patch enable probing if colorspace for both capture and output
device. It really makes sense for output device since the colorspace
shall be set by the application and a little less for capture device
which, at the moment, shall provide the colorspace; ie: the v4l2
specification seems to not take into account the fact that a capture
device could do colorspace conversion.
As a side effet, probing takes some times and so sligthly delay v4l2
initialization. Note that this patch only probe colorspace and not all
colorspace, matrix, transfer and range combination to avoid taking too
much time, especially with low-speed devices as full probing do 1782
ioctl.

gst_v4l2_object_get_caps_info() always return V4L2_PIX_FMT_SBGGR8
for all bayer formats. This is obviously broken if the device use
another ordering. Fix this by properly reading the format parameter.

Replicate V4L2_MAP_QUANTIZATION_DEFAULT macro behavior.
At #v4l it was described that documentation might be wrong and that
we should trust this macro instead.

Didn't know which one to choose between queuing and queueing, so I picked
the one with the biggest amount of vowels in a row ;-P (both are
acceptable apparently)
This time, check if it's an RGB format and sets the transformation
matrix to identity. The rest of the colorimetry information is
meaningfull and shall be kept.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=759624
Use the new primaries and transfer function for Adobe RGB.
Explicitly list the colorimetry instead of using the default GStreamer
ones. The defaults for BT2020, for example, do not match.
Explicitly set the matrix of SRGB to RGB.
Add properties to the device with exactly the same keys and sematics
as what pulseaudio uses as property keys.
Also handle the case when a device is probed manually and not through gudev.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org//show_bug.cgi?id=759780
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.

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.
