This can be used to make vo_libmpv render video to a memory buffer. It
only adds a new backend API that takes memory surfaces. All the render
API (such as frame rendering control and so on) is reused.
I'm not quite convinced of the usefulness of this, and until now I
always resisted providing something like this. It only seems to
facilitate inefficient implementation. But whatever.
Unfortunately, this duplicates the software rendering glue code yet
again (like it exists in vo_x11, vo_wlshm, vo_drm, and probably more).
But in theory, these could reuse this backend in the future, just like
vo_gpu could reuse the render_gl API.
Fixes: #7852
Extending the client-allocated mpv_opengl_drm_params struct
constituted a break of ABI that could cause UB.
Create a clean break by deprecating "drm_params" and related structs
and enum values, and replacing it with "drm_params_v2".
Also fix some comments and code that wrongly assumed that open could
return any other negative number than -1 for failure.

drm-osd-plane -> drm-draw-plane
drm-video-plane -> drm-drmprime-video-plane
drm-osd-size -> drm-draw-surface-size
"draw plane", as in the plane that OpenGL draws to, whether it be
video + OSD or just OSD.
"drmprime video plane", as in the plane used for hwdec video imported
via drmprime.
"draw surface size", as in the size of the surface used for the draw plane
The new names are invariant whether or not hwdec_drmprime_drm is being
used or not. The original naming was very confusing, as when doing
regular rendering (swdec or vaapi) the video would be displayed on the
"OSD plane", and the "Video plane" would remain unused.
That new API was introduced and allows to have several native resources.
Thisuses that mechanisma for drm resources rather than the deprecated
opengl-cb structs.
This patch therefore add two structs that can be used with the drm atomic interop.
- mpv_opengl_drm_params : which will hold all the drm handles
- mpv_opengl_drm_osd_size : which will hold osd layer size
This commit adds a drm-osd-size=WxH parameter to commandline which
allows to define the OSD plane dimension. OSD can be upscaled to
screen resolution when having OSD at video resolution is too heavy.
This is especially useful for UHD modes on embedded devices where
the GPU cannot handle UHD modes at a decent framerate.
Normally, MPV_RENDER_PARAM* arguments are copied, unless documented
otherwise. Of course we can't copy X11 Display or Wayland wl_display
types, but for arguments that are "summarized" in a struct (like
MPV_RENDER_PARAM_OPENGL_FBO), a copy is expected.
Also add some unused infrastructure to make this explicit, and to make
it easier to add parameter types that require a copy.
Untested.
Hardware decoding things often need access to additional handles from
the windowing system, such as the X11 or Wayland display when using
vaapi. The opengl-cb had nothing dedicated for this, and used the weird
GL_MP_MPGetNativeDisplay GL extension (which was mpv specific and not
officially registered with OpenGL).
This was awkward, and a pain due to having to emulate GL context
behavior (like needing a TLS variable to store context for the pseudo GL
extension function). In addition (and not inherently due to this), we
could pass only one resource from mpv builtin context backends to
hwdecs. It was also all GL specific.
Replace this with a newer mechanism. It works for all RA backends, not
just GL. the API user can explicitly pass the objects at init time via
mpv_render_context_create(). Multiple resources are naturally possible.
The API uses MPV_RENDER_PARAM_* defines, but internally we use strings.
This is done for 2 reasons: 1. trying to leave libmpv and internal
mechanisms decoupled, 2. not having to add public API for some of the
internal resource types (especially D3D/GL interop stuff).
To remain sane, drop support for obscure half-working opengl-cb things,
like the DRM interop (was missing necessary things), the RPI window
thing (nobody used it), and obscure D3D interop things (not needed with
ANGLE, others were undocumented). In order not to break ABI and the C
API, we don't remove the associated structs from opengl_cb.h.
The parts which are still needed (in particular DRM interop) needs to be
ported to the render API.
The purpose of the new API is to make it useable with other APIs than
OpenGL, especially D3D11 and vulkan. In theory it's now possible to
support other vo_gpu backends, as well as backends that don't use the
vo_gpu code at all.
This also aims to get rid of the dumb mpv_get_sub_api() function. The
life cycle of the new mpv_render_context is a bit different from
mpv_opengl_cb_context, and you explicitly create/destroy the new
context, instead of calling init/uninit on an object returned by
mpv_get_sub_api().
In other to make the render API generic, it's annoyingly EGL style, and
requires you to pass in API-specific objects to generic functions. This
is to avoid explicit objects like the internal ra API has, because that
sounds more complicated and annoying for an API that's supposed to never
change.
The opengl_cb API will continue to exist for a bit longer, but
internally there are already a few tradeoffs, like reduced
thread-safety.
Mostly untested. Seems to work fine with mpc-qt.
