Subject: [PATCH v13 6/7] media: uapi: Add controls for NPCM video driver
Date: Tue, 4 Jul 2023 14:44:11 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230704064412.2145181-7-milkfafa@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230704064412.2145181-1-milkfafa@gmail.com>
Create controls for Nuvoton NPCM video driver to support setting
capture mode of Video Capture/Differentiation (VCD) engine and getting
the count of HEXTILE rectangles that is compressed by Encoding
Compression Engine (ECE).

+NPCM video driver
+=================
+
+This driver is used to control the Video Capture/Differentiation (VCD) engine
+and Encoding Compression Engine (ECE) present on Nuvoton NPCM SoCs. The VCD can
+capture a frame from digital video input and compare two frames in memory, and
+the ECE can compress the frame data into HEXTILE format.
+
+Driver-specific Controls
+------------------------
+
+V4L2_CID_NPCM_CAPTURE_MODE
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The VCD engine supports two modes:
+
+- COMPLETE mode:
+
+ Capture the next complete frame into memory.
+
+- DIFF mode:
+
+ Compare the incoming frame with the frame stored in memory, and updates the
+ differentiated frame in memory.
+
+Application can use ``V4L2_CID_NPCM_CAPTURE_MODE`` control to set the VCD mode
+with different control values (enum v4l2_npcm_capture_mode):
+
+- ``V4L2_NPCM_CAPTURE_MODE_COMPLETE``: will set VCD to COMPLETE mode.
+- ``V4L2_NPCM_CAPTURE_MODE_DIFF``: will set VCD to DIFF mode.
+
+V4L2_CID_NPCM_RECT_COUNT
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+After frame data is captured, if using V4L2_PIX_FMT_HEXTILE format, the ECE will
+compress the data into HEXTILE format and store these HEXTILE rectangles data in
+V4L2 video buffer with the layout defined in Remote Framebuffer Protocol:
+::
+
+ (RFC 6143, https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6143.html#section-7.6.1)
+
+ +--------------+--------------+-------------------+
+ | No. of bytes | Type [Value] | Description |
+ +--------------+--------------+-------------------+
+ | 2 | U16 | x-position |
+ | 2 | U16 | y-position |
+ | 2 | U16 | width |
+ | 2 | U16 | height |
+ | 4 | S32 | encoding-type (5) |
+ +--------------+--------------+-------------------+
+ | HEXTILE rectangle data |
+ +-------------------------------------------------+
+
+Application can get these video buffers through V4L2 interfaces and use
+``V4L2_CID_NPCM_RECT_COUNT`` control to get the count of compressed HEXTILE
+rectangles that can be put in the field number-of-rectangles of
+FramebufferUpdate header.
