VAAPI: Fail to Decode an H264 LP Multi-Slice Encoded Video

Description

Summary of the bug:

With ffmpeg-vaapi on iHD driver, unable to decode video that was encoded with AVC low-power multi-slice.

On the flip-side, the i965 driver refuses even to encode with low-power multi-slice (i.e. VAConfigAttribEncSliceStructure returns not supported). Not sure if that is a driver bug or not.

Multi-slice support enabled in:

    vaapi_encode_h264: Enable multiple-slice support

How to reproduce:

Encode:

% LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=iHD ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi -vaapi_device /dev/dri/renderD128 \
  -v verbose -f rawvideo -pix_fmt yuv420p -s:v 1280x720 -i ./input.yuv \
  -vf 'format=nv12,hwupload' -c:v h264_vaapi -low_power 1 -profile:v high \
  -g 30 -qp 14 -bf 0 -quality 4 -slices 4 -vframes 10 -y test.h264

Encode Output:

The driver seems to have only used part of (or overwritten some of?) the slice header when run in low-power mode.

Given a 64x64 input, with the normal encoder:

$ LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=iHD ./ffmpeg_g -y -hwaccel vaapi -hwaccel_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -hwaccel_output_format vaapi -i 64x64.mp4 -an -c:v h264_vaapi -frames:v 1 -slices 4 -low_power 0 -bsf:v trace_headers -f null -

Yes, this is definitely a iHD driver bug. Filed issue at https://github.com/intel/media-driver/issues/389

comment:4 by haihao, 5 years ago

VAConfigAttribEncSliceStructure is a hint only, so it is not mandatory to support VAConfigAttribEncSliceStructure in a backend driver. I think a patch is required for FFmpeg too.

comment:5 by U. Artie Eoff, 5 years ago

This bug is not really about i965 backend driver. It was only mentioned because it was unclear whether i965 should actually support it or if it was because of a HW limitation. In case of HW limitation, the conclusion would be that iHD is reporting it wrong. But, HW limitation or not, it seemed odd that i965 has logic to support VAConfigAttribEncMaxSlices > 1 for LP but not support for VAConfigAttribEncSliceStructure.

Nonetheless, on i965, VAConfigAttribEncSliceStructure returns NOT SUPPORTED, and ffmpeg doesn't get choked up about VAConfigAttribEncMaxSlices > 1... and thus, refuses to proceed with encoding. This seems like reasonable behavior for ffmpeg in that case, right?

Finally (the original reason for this bug), since iHD VAConfigAttribEncSliceStructure returns EQUAL_ROWS | MAX_SLICE_SIZE, ffmpeg proceeds to encode it with this setting since iHD said it's supported. Unfortunately, iHD seems to have trouble encoding with this setting.

So, I'm not sure what you would expect needs patched in ffmpeg.

comment:6 by haihao, 5 years ago

I mentioned VAConfigAttribEncSliceStructure is a hint only, driver may or may not support this hint. My understanding is that any structure is supported as soon as the structure meet the spec when the driver returns NOT SUPPORTED for this hint attribute.

Ok, I guess I am a little confused about the meaning. Maybe @jkqxz understands better.

comment:8 by haihao, 5 years ago

What I mean is that returning NOT SUPPORTED for VAConfigAttribEncSliceStructure doesn't indicate the backend driver doesn't support multiple slice encoding.

comment:9 by jkqxz, 5 years ago

That isn't how I would read the documentation, though I admit it's a bit unclear - given that all the options are constraining the user to particular slice layouts, the fallback position being the most lenient seems inappropriate. Perhaps it would be best if you send a patch to libva clarifying the documentation, and any discussion can happen there?

In any case, this is very easy to fix on the i965 driver side to enable it with the stricter interpretation - add the missing EncSliceStructure attribute for the relevant LP encode entrypoints.
