 Right. Aren't we missing a DPB_ENTRY_FLAG_TOP_FIELD?

 If I understand correctly, the DPB can contain:

 * frames (FLAG_FIELD not set)
 * a field pair, with a single field (FLAG_FIELD and either TOP or BOTTOM).
 * a field pair, with boths fields (FLAG_FIELD and both TOP or BOTTOM).

There seems to be some misunderstanding here, the top/bottom flagging should
not be used to describe if the picture is a field, field pair or frame, it
should be used to flag if a frame or the top and/or bottom field (in case of
a field pair) is "used for short-term reference".

FLAG_TOP_REF
FLAG_BOTTOM_REF
FLAG_FRAME_REF =

Let's admit, while this work, it's odd. Can we just move to that instewad ?

  FLAG_TOP_FIELD
  FLAG_BOTTOM_FIELD
  FLAG_FRAME = (FLAG_TOP_FIELD | FLAG_BOTTOM_FIELD)

So it can be used as a flag, but also is a proper enum and there is no longer an
invalid combination.

Yes, perhaps that's correct. I was trying to think strictly
in terms of the H264 semantics, to define a clean interface.

I believe _how_ the picture is referenced shouldn't (or can't?) be signaled
in the DPB representation. It seems Jernej's [1] which properly adds a
flag for each entry in ref_pic_list0 is the right way.

Yup, I noticed this and it's why I started looking at the uAPI side
of the DPB.

It seems to me all we are missing is further clarification
of the meaning of each DPB_ENTRY_FLAG (possibly adding/removing
flags).

Well, my understand is that, if the buffer contains both a TOP and
BOTTOM field, it actually becomes a full frame, so you actually have
those cases:

* FLAG_FIELD not set: this a frame (note that a TOP/BOTTOM field
  decoded buffer can become of frame if it's complemented with the
  missing field later during the decoding)
* FLAG_FIELD set + BOTTOM_FIELD not set: this is a TOP field
* FLAG_FIELD set + BOTTOM_FIELD set: this is a BOTTOM field
* FLAG_FIELD not set + BOTTOM_FIELD set: invalid combination

but I might be wrong.

Right. Aren't we missing a DPB_ENTRY_FLAG_TOP_FIELD?

If I understand correctly, the DPB can contain:

* frames (FLAG_FIELD not set)
* a field pair, with a single field (FLAG_FIELD and either TOP or BOTTOM).
* a field pair, with boths fields (FLAG_FIELD and both TOP or BOTTOM).

These flags would only indicate how the frame / field pair / field is
referenced and not if the DPB entry was decoded as a frame or field pair.

Both hantro and rkvdec needs to know how the referenced frame / field pair
was decoded (not how it is referenced), my best guess is that MV is stored
differently for a frame (linear) and field pair (buffer split in two).

I think we should be able to track how the buffer was decoded similar to
how VP9 keep track of buffer width/height.

When I played with interlaced decoding of rkvdec a few weeks ago I
reverted flags to something similar as my initial rfc patch, see [1].
I guess it should be possible to keep current flags and track field_pic
in driver, some macro to simplify check for top/bottom ref could be
useful if flags is kept as-is.

I am hoping to find some time next week to revisit hantro interlaced
and refine rkvdec interlaced support.

I've been going thru the H264 spec and I'm unsure,
are all these flags semantically needed?

For instance, if one of REF_BOTTOM or REF_TOP (or both)
are set, doesn't that indicate it's a field picture?

Or conversely, if neither REF_BOTTOM or REF_TOP are set,
then it's a frame picture?

Thanks,
Ezequiel
