A physical address on Linux is only visible to drivers for security
reasons. You should instead pass/register DMABuf to your driver, and
let you driver resolve the physical addresses using appropriate in-
kernel API (could be one or more, depends if you are allocation
contiguously or not).

Again, the decoder will give you a GstBuffer, which contains GstMemory
or type DMABuf (need to be checked with gst_is_dmabuf_memory()). You
can then extract the DMAbuf fd with gst_dmabuf_memory_get_fd(). The
physical addresse(s) should only be made visible to your kernel driver
for security reasons.
