VAProcColorStandardExplicit and associated VAProcColorProperties
(primaries, transfer and matrix) are not supported until
VA-API 1.2.0.
Use VAProcColorStandardNone instead of VAProcColorStandardExplicit
if VA-API < 1.2.0.
Fixes#231
Addresses #228 on iHD side. It seems iHD can't handle
VAProcColorStandardSRGB in all situations for vpp. But
it has no problem when we specify the sRGB parameters
via VAProcColorStandardExplicit parameters.
We've always sent VA_SOURCE_RANGE_UNKNOWN to the driver.
And, the [iHD] driver essentially computes the same color
range as gstreamer when we send VA_SOURCE_RANGE_UNKNOWN for
cases were gstreamer computes it automatically. But,
if the user wants to make it explicit, we should try
to honor it.
The default output colorimetry is persuaded by the output
resolution, which is too naive when doing VPP cropping
and/or scaling. For example, scaling 4K(sink)->1080P(src)
resolution (i.e. both YUV) results in bt2020(sink)->bt709(src)
colorimetry selection and some drivers don't support that
mode in vpp.
Thus, if output (i.e. downstream) does not specify a
colorimetry then we use the input resolution instead of the
output resolution to create the default colorimetry. Also,
note that we still use the output format since it may be a
different color space than the input. As in the example
above, this will result in bt2020(sink)->bt2020(src)
colorimetry selection and all drivers (afaik) should support
that in vpp.
If colorimetry has been set by a capsfilter (e.g.
vaapipostproc ! video/x-raw,colorimetry=bt709) then
don't try to override it. Previously, the aforementioned
capsfilter will fail to negotiate if default colorimetry
is not the same as the capsfilter (e.g. 4K resolutions).
Some code can be optimized since only if the dmabuf allocator is set,
the internal flag of dmabuf is TRUE, thus there's no need to evaluate
the allocator address.
If the requested allocator in set_config() is not a VAAPI valid one,
reject the configuration, instead of lying and using a private one.
This patch superseeds !254 and !24
set_config() vmethod should fail gracefully, thus upstream could
negotiate another pool if possible.
Instead of sending error messages to the bus, let demote the level
to warning.
Instead of creating a new allocator when upstream requests a different
allocator, this patch tries to reuse the internal allocator if it was
already initializated.
If the stream changes, then either one will be unref and a new
allocator is created.
This mechanism comes from ffmpeg vaapi implementation, where they have
their own quirks.
A specific driver is identified by a substring present in the vendor
string. If that substring is found, a set of bitwise flags are store.
These flags can be accessed through the function
gst_vaapi_display_has_driver_quirks().
The purpose for this first quirks is to disable the put image try for
AMD Gallium driver (see [1]).

Validate if the meta returned by gst_buffer_get_vaapi_video_meta() in
the acquired buffer is not null.
This situation should be very "pathological", but still it is better
be safe since that meta might be used later to create a new dma
buffer.
gst_vaapi_video_buffer_pool_reset_buffer() is called when the sink
releases the last reference on an exported DMA buffer. This should
release the underlying surface proxy. To avoid releasing the wrong
surface due to a stale surface proxy reference in the buffer's
GstVaapiVideoMeta, always update the reference to the correct surface
in gst_vaapi_video_buffer_pool_acquire_buffer().
This commit tries to centralize the selection of vaCreateSurfaces
version, instead of having fallbacks everywhere.
These fallbacks are hacks, added because new drivers use the latest
version of vaCreateSurfaces (with surface attributes) [1], meanwhile
old drivers (or profiles as JPEG decoder in i965) might rather use the
old version.
In order to select which method, there's detected hack: each config
context has a list of valid formats, in the case of JPEG decoder the
list only contains "rare" 4:2:2 formats (ICM3, GRAY8) which aren't
handled correctly by the current gstreamer-vaapi code [2].
The hack consist in identify if the format list contains an arbitrary
preferred format (which is suposedly well supported by
gstreamer-vaapi, mostly NV12). If no prefered colour format is found,
the the old version of vaCreateSurfaces is used, and the surfaces wil
be mapped into a image with their own color format.

When baseline-as-constrained is set, the decoder will expose support
for baseline decoding and assume that the baseline content is
constrained-baseline. This can be handy to decode streams in hardware
that would otherwise not be possible to decode. A lot of baseline
content is in fact constrained.
And, if downstream requests a specific level, the caps are not
negotiated, because there is no mechanism right now to specify a
custom level in the internal encoder.
When the available caps doesn't intersect with the allowed caps in the
pipeline, a new caps is proposed rather than just expecting to
iterate.
Later, the intersected caps (profile_caps) is fixated in order to
extract the configuration.
The formats array is always created, in order to keep the logic and
to avoid broken caps, if this formats array doesn't contain any
elements, it has to be unref and the function should return NULL.
meson.build in gstreamer-vaapi requires hooks/pre-commit.hook

When the tune is NONE, we now can choose entrypoint freely. So the
GST_VAAPI_ENCODER_TUNE macro may not return the correct current
entrypoint.
We also delay CTU size calculation after entrypoint has been decided.
FEI encoders are not actively mantained neither tested, and it is
using infrastructure that is changing and FEI is stopping this
effort.
Also it is required to rethink how FEI can be used in GStreamer.
Use the gst_video_aggregator_pad_has_current_buffer API
to check if the current sinkpad has a queued buffer before
attempting to obtain a input buffer from the base plugin.
If the sinkpad does not have a current buffer, then it is
either not producing them yet (e.g. current time < sinkpad
start time) or it has reached EOS.
Previously, we only handled EOS case.
Example:
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc num-buffers=100 \
! vaapipostproc ! vaapioverlay name=overlay \
! vaapisink videotestsrc timestamp-offset=1000000000 \
num-buffers=100 ! video/x-raw,width=160,height=120 \
! overlay.
