ASPEED video driver
|
||
|
===================
|
||
|
|
||
|
ASPEED Video Engine found on AST2400/2500/2600 SoC supports high performance
|
||
|
video compressions with a wide range of video quality and compression ratio
|
||
|
options. The adopted compressing algorithm is a modified JPEG algorithm.
|
||
|
|
||
|
There are 2 types of compressions in this IP.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* JPEG JFIF standard mode: for single frame and management compression
|
||
|
* ASPEED proprietary mode: for multi-frame and differential compression.
|
||
|
Support 2-pass (high quality) video compression scheme (Patent pending by
|
||
|
ASPEED). Provide visually lossless video compression quality or to reduce
|
||
|
the network average loading under intranet KVM applications.
|
||
|
|
||
|
VIDIOC_S_FMT can be used to choose which format you want. V4L2_PIX_FMT_JPEG
|
||
|
stands for JPEG JFIF standard mode; V4L2_PIX_FMT_AJPG stands for ASPEED
|
||
|
proprietary mode.
|
||
|
|
||
|
More details on the ASPEED video hardware operations can be found in
|
||
|
*chapter 6.2.16 KVM Video Driver* of SDK_User_Guide which available on
|
||
|
`github <https://github.com/AspeedTech-BMC/openbmc/releases/>`__.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ASPEED video driver implements the following driver-specific control:
|
||
|
|
||
|
``V4L2_CID_ASPEED_HQ_MODE``
|
||
|
---------------------------
|
||
|
Enable/Disable ASPEED's High quality mode. This is a private control
|
||
|
that can be used to enable high quality for aspeed proprietary mode.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. flat-table::
|
||

:header-rows: 0
|

:stub-columns: 0
|

:widths: 1 4
|
||
|
|
||
|
* - ``(0)``
|
||
|
- ASPEED HQ mode is disabled.
|
||
|
* - ``(1)``
|
||
|
- ASPEED HQ mode is enabled.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``V4L2_CID_ASPEED_HQ_JPEG_QUALITY``
|
||
|
-----------------------------------
|
||
|
Define the quality of ASPEED's High quality mode. This is a private control
|
||
|
that can be used to decide compression quality if High quality mode enabled
|
||
|
. Higher the value, better the quality and bigger the size.
