SubjectRE: [PATCH] Allow S/G_PARM for stateful decoder
Date
Thanks, Hans, for your comments.

I will take care of all comments regarding this change in next patch.

Will also send a patch to update the documentation.
Venus driver already has support for S_PARM for decoder, will add support for G_PARM as well and send a patch.

Thanks,
Dikshita

Hi Dikshita,

First I'll comment on this patch, then at the end I have more high-level comments.

decoder -> decoders

BTW, which decoder drivers support this in mainline? Or is this for out-of-tree drivers?

M2M devices still don't support this, except for stateful codecs. So this test should still be there, just changed to:

!(node->codec_mask & (STATEFUL_ENCODER | STATEFUL_DECODER))

Similar.

But modifying the utility is something you only do if the spec has first been updated.
So the stateful decoder chapter needs to be modified so it explains how G/S_PARM shall be used. And ideally have at least one driver that supports it.

Hans
