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.
The i.MX8MM also has a Hantro video encoder which appears to be similar
to what's already supported in some Rockchip devices. As part of the
series, some of the video format names are re-named to be more generic.
The VPUs appear as media devices:

This is an RFC because I don't have functional video on my system yet,
and I'm hoping there might be people who do and can help test this.
I have only tested this far enough to see they enumerate and appear
as /dev/videoX and /dev/mediaX devices.
I am also curious to know if/what gstreamer plugins are necessary. In
NXP's custom kernel, there are IMX-specific plugins, and I was hoping there
would be more generic plugins that I can use to test. I am hoping some
of the linux-media experts might chime in on how to best test.
Lastly, I didn't update any device tree binding YAML files, because
I know there have been some discussions about the power domains on the
imx8mq, and I wasn't sure if the imx8mm should get a separate YAML file
or if the existing one for te imx8mq should just be modified.
This will likely require the following series in order to apply correctly:

Adam,
What deps did you install in order to get v4l2codecs building? I
installed libgudev-1.0-dev based on Nicolas' suggestion and rebuilt
(not sure if I needed to re-configure somehow) but there is still
nothing in build/subprojects/gst-plugins-bad/sys/v4l2codecs/. A 'meson
configure' tells me that v4l2codecs is set to 'auto' but I'm not sure
how to find out what dependencies are needed or what may be missing.
Best regards,
Tim

Instead of building just a limited release of gstreamer, I had to
build the whole thing.
meson builddir
ninja -C builddir -j2
running with -j4 ran the imx8mm out of memory and slowed to a crawl to
the point where it didn't finish even after building overnight.
With that, I was able to execute gst-env.py to run streamer without
installing it. In that environment, I was able to run fluster to get
the results I published.

At least in my case (Centps-derivative), this is what I've done:
...
gst-plugins-bad| Run-time dependency gudev-1.0 found: NO (tried
pkgconfig and cmake)
Installed gudev ... and then:

Ezequiel and Nicolas,
Thanks - I did manage to get gstreamer 1.19.3 built successfully with
v4l2codecs finally by getting the correct dependencies. I've attempted
to software encode from another system and decode/display on the IMX8M
Mini but thus far have not been successful.
I see that v4l2codecs plugin v4l2slh264dec/v4l2slmpeg2dec/v4l2slvp8dec
and these all can output video/x-raw NV12/YUY2 which kmssink should
accept so I'm attempting the following :
# vp8 encode from x86
gst-launch-1.0 -v videotestsrc ! video/x-raw,width=800,height=480 !
vp8enc ! rtpvp8pay ! udpsink host=172.24.33.15 port=9001
# vp8 decode on [email protected] which has a 800x480 display
[gst-main] root@focal-venice:~/gstreamer/build# gst-launch-1.0 -v
udpsrc port=9001 caps = "application/x-rtp, media=(string)video,

I'm getting the same thing when trying to use h264.
I've never quite been able to grasp how to debug GStreamer's
negotiation issues. If I end with fakesink it appears to decode so it
must be the v4l2slvp8dec to kmssink. I tried forcing the pixel format
using 'v4l2slvp8dec ! "video/x-raw,format=(string)NV12" ! kmssink' but
I still get the negotiation error.
What interrupts should I be seeing in /proc/interrupts? I don't see
anything vpu/hantro related there.
I also want to make sure I have a basic understanding of the vpu
drivers and usersapce on the IMX8M Mini. The IMX6Q/DL that I'm more
familiar with has a vpu that is supported by the GStreamer video4linux
plugin which shows the following (on GStreamer 1.16.2):
v4l2jpegenc: V4L2 JPEG Encoder
v4l2jpegdec: V4L2 JPEG Decoder
v4l2h264enc: V4L2 H.264 Encoder
v4l2mpeg4enc: V4L2 MPEG4 Encoder
v4l2mpeg4dec: V4L2 MPEG4 Decoder
v4l2mpeg2dec: V4L2 MPEG2 Decoder
v4l2h264dec: V4L2 H264 Decoder
The IMX6Q/DL also has an IPU that has an M2M driver that provides the
following for scaling/colorspace conversion:
v4l2convert: V4L2 Video Converter
I believe what I'm reading is that the IMX8M Mini Hantro codecs are
'stateful' where more software is required to drive them and is
supported by the newer v4l2codecs plugin. I haven't been able to
understand what kernel version/requirements the v4l2codecs plugin
users/requires.
I'm also trying to understand how we can get scaling/colorspace
conversion on the IMX8M Mini. The IMX8M lacks an IPU... is there some
way to utilize scaling/colorspace conversion from the 2D GPU bound to
the etnaviv driver?
Best regards,
Tim

I will post a V2 last today with the Mini's post-processing removed.
Someone, I apologize that I forget who, mentioned it was fused out of
the Mini, so the testing I've been doing was with that removed and I
removed the H1 encoder since the Mini doesn't support JPEG encoding.
I don't understand the YAML very well, and I'm struggling with the
dt-bindings which is the main reason I havne't submitted a formal
patch yet.
To date, I have only tested with v4l2-compliance and with the fluster
app that was recommended.

I don't have my Mini with me right now, but with my current patch set
that I mentioned above, I am able to see the interrupts for the
video-codec@38300000 increase each time I run a test with fluster.

After H264 debacle with 5.9, 5.10 and 5.11 API break and GStreamer not getting
enough release to support all of these we started merging support for CODECs
only when the stable uAPI land. I made an exception for VP9 as it is already
applied in the media tree and didn't want to miss 1.20 release.
So to answer you question, it depends on when the CODEC uAPI landed.

The concept of the mini, is that you would be using th encoder for anything that
isn't going to the display. So they only integrated the Hantro PP on the
encoder. Unfortunately, you'll have to be patient for mainline stateless encoder
support, we barely scratch the surface of this subject, but its being worked on.
Unlike the IMX8MQ, you don't have the option to output YUYV (packed yuv 4:2:2)
which would satisfy the 2D GPU support hoold to the DMABuf import path.
When the display driver gets ready and upstream (it's been only 2-3 years now),
you'll get linear NV12 support along with G2 compression support (this one is
not supported by the GPU, so it will be tricky to expose in userland). I don't
think the display support 4L4 tiles, but you GPU most likely can do with the
right shared and texelFetch() or vulkan equivalent if that exist on that target.

After some searching for Hantro PP I see that the IMXMQ (IMX8M
Dual/QuadLite/Quad) mentions Hantro PP. From the IMX8MDQLQRM section
14.1.2.1 Decoder Features:
<quote>
Video post-processing features
- Frame rotation 90 degrees left/right
- Frame mirroring horizontally/vertically
- Frame cropping
- Frame conversion from YCbCr formats to 16-bit or 32-bit RGB formats
- Frame scaling with maximum up-scaling factor of 3
- Two rectangular or alpha blending masks for output frame
The post-processing features can be used in pipeline with the
decoder. The postprocessing features can also be used as stand-alone,
without performing any decoding
</quote>
The above is under the VPU_G1 section and the same is not mentioned
for VPU_G2 and the IMX8MQ doesn't have encode support. Where do you
see that the IMX8MM has the Hantro PP on the H1? I know the TRM's lack
a lot of info so perhaps you know more about the internals than what
the TRM states.
I also found on a forum
(https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/imx8mq-Hantro-G1-scaling/m-p/1285343)
that NXP's BSP doesn't use the Hantro for scaling (and likely not csc
either) and they use the GPU instead. I'm still unclear if/how you
could tap into the 2D GPU to use its scaling/conversion if it's bound
to the etnaviv driver.

Do you mean the Samsung Exynos DRM driver (which doesn't yet have
support for IMX8MM) or drivers/gpu/drm/mxsfb?
I'm currently using a pretty old patchset that adds IMX8MM support to
the drm/exynos driver. I'm way out of my realm when talking about
GPU/VPU and display drivers.

I've got told that by someone with contacts at NXP recently (in IRC). I haven't
verified it though, it just made sense for the targeted use of th mini. Hantro
G1 driver does not yet expose an M2M for the standalone mode of the PP, but
shall be possible. Decode an PP cannot run concurrently though, so concurrent PP
and decode will have big impact on performance.
The G2 PP is different, but I *think* its always there. It's not doing much,
linear NV12 (detiling from 4x4 linear tiles), and can scale down by factor of 2,
4 an 8. If there is more feature I'm not aware.

As I'm saying above, you can't, there is no NV12 support in that 2D GPU from
what I was old by Etnaviv folks, only YUYV (4:2:2 packed). Shaders is the only
option.

Didn't know the mini was using Samsung display controller. Didn't even know that
chip could exist outside of Exynos chips. On imx8mq, they have a NXP display
chip and it is new. Downstream driver exist, and upstream driver is being worked
on.

That's not correct. The 3D GPU can sample directly from YUYV, so it's
the optimal zero-copy format if you are going to use the video with the
3D GPU. Most of the 2D GPU cores (and I think the one of the 8MM is no
exception) can handle planar formats, some of them only at reduced rate
of 1 Pixel/clock, instead of the usual 2 Pixels/clock.

The display controller on the 8MM is derived from the existing simple
eLCDIF controllers found on earlier i.MX SoCs. 8MQ is the only one with
the very capable DCSS display controller. In fact the 8MQ DCSS is
upstream, what is missing is the Cadence eDP/HDMI bridge driver. The
MIPI-DSI controller and PHY on the 8MM is Samsung IP.

Resurrecting this thread here. IMX8MMRM Rev. 0, 02/2019 mentions
post-processor features for G1 and G2.
Have you checked the fuse and synth registers to see if they throw
any useful information about the hardware? For instance,
comparing PP fuse register (SWREG99) and
Synthesis configuration register post-processor (SWREG100)
in both 8MQ and 8MM could be useful.
As I mentioned on my previous mail, even if G1 PP is disabled
on the Mini, I would imagine the G2 can do linear NV12 (aka raster-scan)
which in our hantro driver jargon is a "post-processed" format :-)
Thanks,
Ezequiel

You're likely right. I was going on memory from an e-mail from
Nicloas Defresne who wrote:
"I will check the patchset, but you need in the mini-variant to disable the G1
post processor, because this block was fused out. We didn't make it optional
from the start as according to the V1 of the TRM it was there, but that error
was corrected in V3."
In my head I assumed the G2 was affected as well, but when I double
checked his email, and based on the above statement, the G2
post-processing is probably there, so I'll run some tests with the G2
post-processing enabled. I'll also double check those registers on
both to confirm what they read. I am not sure when I'll have time
because I leave for London next week, and I won't return until early
January, but I'll do what I can.

Sorry if this was a bit ambiguous, indeed I meant the G1 only. I've learned
later that the design of the Mini is that there is a good pre-processor in the
H1 block (encoder), so for the targeted use-cases this shall be sufficient for
most users (the output of the G1 is suitable for GPU and Display already, so the
post processor is not strictly needed).

Does this mean that if the IMX8MM G2 may be able to output a wider
array of pixel formats and that the H1 encoder may be able to accept a
wider array of pixel formats? Is this code already in place in the
hantro driver and it just needs to be enabled if the IMX8MM can handle
it or is there code to be written?
I'm not clear if anyone is working on IMX8MM VPU H1 support. You had
mentioned that some support [1] and [2] can be derived from the RK3288
using the Google ChromeOS method (a v4l2 plugin that simulates in
userspace a stateful encoder). I'm not sure if this is worth pursuing
if others are working on stateless encode support in kernel and
gstreamer.
Best Regards,
Tim

No since the G2 post processor does not have a color converter (it is very
limited). In term of format, this is pretty much identical, produces linear or
tiled. The difference is that G1 supports the two layout natively, not the G2.

My colleagues started last week the project of crafting mainline stateless
encoder uAPI. This is too early. In older project, we have had good success with
the emulated stateful encoder. It is of course quite limited, but works in
gstreamer, ffmpeg and chromium. It is also likely safer compared to the vendor
provided driver.
p.s. From my knowledge, there is virtually no difference between the H1 on
RK3288 and IMX8MM/P, but we've learn from G1 that there could effectively have
more of less features.

If people still want to play with the old emulated stateful encoder, there
is a forward-ported version in the ChromeOS v5.10 kernel now. Note that
RK3288 (H1) support is untested. Also, RK3288 and RK3399 require different
versions of the userspace plugin. And the RK3288 version might require some
updates to add SELECTION API support.
