[PATCH v4 23/24] media: hantro: Add H.264 field decoding support

Tue Apr 26 05:57:49 PDT 2022


This adds the required code to support field decoding. While most of
the code is derived from Rockchip and VSI reference code, the
reduction of the reference list to 16 entries was found by
trial and errors. The list consists of all the references with the
opposite field parity.

The strategy is to deduplicate the reference picture that points
to the same storage (same index). The choice of opposite parity has
been made to keep the other field of the current field pair in the
list. This method may not be robust if a field was lost.
