Subject: [PATCH v2 00/11] staging: media: cedrus: assorted fixes and VP8 4K support
Date: Mon,  9 Nov 2026 18:50:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109175016.42061-1-jernej.skrabec@gmail.com> (raw)

This series fixes a number of bugs in the Cedrus driver, found while
running the conformance suites and comparing with the vendor library,
mostly on H616.

Patches 1-10 are fixes:
- patch 1 fixes MV-col buffer leak when the file handle is closed
  without STREAMOFF,
- patches 2 and 7 reject H.264/HEVC SPS and VP8 frame sizes beyond the
  hardware limits, and fail jobs whose picture doesn't fit the buffers,
  preventing memory overruns and hardware hangs,
- patch 3 marks H.264 long-term references, which fixes MR8_BT_B and
  MR9_BT_B conformance samples,
- patches 4-6 fix MPEG-2 field picture decoding (field height, field
  order detection and references of the second field),
- patch 8 enlarges VP8 probability table to the size used by the vendor
  libraries, since the hardware uses the area past it as scratch space,
- patch 9 switches H616 to the 256-bit DDR mode, which fixes corrupted
  reference chroma in H.264 and VP8,
- patch 10 clears the sizes of the H.264 DRAM buffers on start, which
  fixes a double free when a narrow H.264 stream follows a wide one on
  the same file handle.

Patch 11 is new functionality: VP8 decoding of frames wider than 2048
pixels. It depends on patch 10.

Changes in v2:
- patches 2 and 7: check only the hardware limits in try_ctrl. Check
  whether the picture fits the buffers in the setup callbacks instead,
  which fail the job with an error buffer. try_ctrl could be bypassed
  by setting the control before the buffers were allocated (Nicolas,
  Sashiko).
- patch 2: describe what the HEVC decoder takes from the SPS.
- patch 7: limit VP8 frames to 4080 pixels in width, as the frame size
  register holds 8-bit macroblock counts.
- patch 3: pass the reference type instead of a bool (Nicolas), and
  keep the reference type of the first field when the second field of
  a pair is decoded into the same buffer (Sashiko).
- patch 4: halve the macroblock aligned height for the boundary of a
  field, like the vendor library does (Nicolas).
- patch 10: new.
- patch 11: set the DRAM buffer sizes only once both buffers are
  allocated and clear them first, so that a failed allocation or the
  data of another codec can't leave stale sizes (Sashiko).
- collected Reviewed-by tags.

Please take a look.
