The i.MX8M has two Hantro video decoders, called G1 and G2 which appear
to be related to the video decoders used on the i.MX8MQ, but because of
how the Mini handles the power domains, the VPU driver does not need to
handle all the functions, so a new compatible flag is required.
V3 is rebased from git://linuxtv.org/hverkuil/media_tree.git for-v5.17c
This branch has support for VP9.
I set cma=512M, but this may not be enough memory as some tests appeard to run out of memory
V3 of this series has several changes:
Update imx8m_vpu_hw to add missing 'reg' reference names for G2 and include references to VP9
Update device tree to remove IMX8MQ_VPU_RESET, remove some duplicate vpu clock parenting
Fix missing reg-names from vpu_g2 node.
Apply patch [1] to manage the power domains powering down.
[1] - https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/[email protected]/t/
With the above, the following Fluster scores are produced:
G1:
./fluster.py run -dGStreamer-H.264-V4L2SL-Gst1.0
Ran 90/135 tests successfully in 74.406 secs
./fluster.py run -d GStreamer-VP8-V4L2SL-Gst1.0
Ran 55/61 tests successfully in 8.080 secs
G2:
./fluster.py run -d GStreamer-VP9-V4L2SL-Gst1.0
Ran 127/303 tests successfully in 203.873 secs
Fluster and G-Streamer were both built from their respective git repos using their respective master/main branches.

Adam,
On another thread you had let me know that you also removed the reset
from the pgc_vpumix power domain which does appear to resolve the
hang:

That would make such a patch have a 'Fixes commit d39d4bb15310

isn't active until your series so I'm not sure if we should send this
separate or squash it with "arm64: dts: imx8mm: Enable VPU-G1 and
VPU-G2". I'm also not clear if removing the reset requires some
further discussion with Lucas.
Best regards,

Unless there is objection from Lucas, I'll likely make it the first
patch in the series marking it with a fixes tag so it gets backported,
then the rest of the series would be adding the bindings, update the
driver and adding the G1 and G2 nodes.

Adam,
I've also gotten decode+display working for vp8/h264 using this series
and gstreamer-1.19.3 (although I have to use software colorspace
conversion)

^^^ this fails with no-negotiated
Note I have to use videoconvert because v4l2slvp8dev src is
NV12/YUY2/NV12_32L32 and from testing only BGRx appears compatible
with kmssink (even though gst-inspect kmssink says it can sink
NV12/YUY2). With the 800x480 resolution of my display the CPU overhead
of software colorspcae conversion with videoconvert only about 9%
I haven't yet gotten vp9 decode+display working yet as 'rtpvp9depay !
v4l2slvp9dec ! fakesink' does not negotiate and it might be because my
vp9enc source is on an old gstreamer 1.16.
When you post the next series please add:

Consider passing -j1 to fluster and using patience, this will spare some memory.
You can also increase the timeout (like -t 60), that often helps when CMA is
involved (due to software conversion happening). Thanks for the serious testing,
this is really appreciated that your submission really reflects the state.

Benjamin reports 129, it could be flux. This is still a bit early, hence the low
score. But most streams do playback normally.

That gave me an idea, I'll try and print the GStreamer version/commit inside
fluster along with fluster own commit (ideally in the short summary).

I'm fine with removing the reset when it fixes things. In normal
operation the reset should already be triggered by the GPC itself via a
hardware mechanism. We know that this doesn't work for the GPU reset on
the i.MX8MM, so we have the ability for the driver to handle it by
poking the SRC explicitly.
Adding the reset to the VPU DT description wasn't done because I know
that we need it, but more of a "I know that things are broken with the
GPU domain, so better be safe than sorry with the VPU domain". My line
of thought clearly was that it may not be needed, but it may prevent
some issues in the long run. If it is _causing_ issues however, there
is no need to discuss anything, just get rid of it.
