[Mesa-dev] 10bit HEVC decoding for RadeonSI v2

[Christian König]

Hi Peter,

Adding Michel and Marek for the Mesa interop side and Harry for the 
display side.

Well to make a long story short: I don't have the slightest idea. 
Ideally we would of the same handling as Intel so that you guys don't 
have anything vendor dependent in your code.

The first step would be to get the VA-API DRM extension to work with 
EGL. So that Kodi is able to export the YUV surfaces and import parts of 
them as separate R8/R16 or R8G8/R16G16 surfaces, right?

What EGL/GL extension do you guys use to import the surfaces? Marek is 
that stuff fully supported, e.g. do we also handle the offsets 
correctly? I've added the backend code for this while doing VDPAU 
interop, but the EGL/GL frontend code needs to handle it gracefully as well.

The second step is then to teach our DC how to handle RGB surfaces with 
10bit. I doubt the old code has support for that and we probably don't 
want to add it. So Harry can you comment on how far along we got with 
that in DC?

Regards,
Christian.
