The venus and s5p-mfc drivers add the loop filter alpha/beta offset controls V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_H264_LOOP_FILTER_ALPHA/BETA with a range of -6 to +6, inclusive. This is exactly the range specified for the slice header fields slice_alpha_c0_offset_div2 and slice_beta_offset_div2, which store half the actual filter offsets FilterOffsetA/B.
Clarify that this control contains the halved offsets. Signed-off-by: Philipp Zabel <p.za...@pengutronix.de> --- I assume that the venus and s5p-mfc drivers use the loop filter control values directly as halved filter offsets, because of the ranges. If this is not the case, the documentation should be changed to clarify that the control values correspond to FilterOffsetA/B directly, instead. --- Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/extended-controls.rst | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/extended-controls.rst b/Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/extended-controls.rst index 65a1d873196b..8dff21391c1f 100644 --- a/Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/extended-controls.rst +++ b/Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/extended-controls.rst @@ -1110,10 +1110,16 @@ enum v4l2_mpeg_video_h264_loop_filter_mode - ``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_H264_LOOP_FILTER_ALPHA (integer)`` Loop filter alpha coefficient, defined in the H264 standard. + This value corresponds to the slice_alpha_c0_offset_div2 slice header + field, and should be in the range of -6 to +6, inclusive.
