+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/h264: per-MB inspection callback (daedalus-decoder
+ hook)
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Adds an opt-in callback fired in ff_h264_hl_decode_mb after the
+existing pixel work, used by tools that need per-MB visibility into
+the H.264 decode.  Initially driven by daedalus-decoder's CLI test
+harness (tools/daedalus_decode_h264) which shadows libavcodec's
+decode with a frame-major daedalus-decoder run for byte-exact diff
+on real H.264 streams; later target is a daedalus-v4l2 daemon
+refactor that drives daedalus_decoder_append_mb directly from the
+callback instead of letting libavcodec do per-MB pixel work.
+
+Shape: ONE inspection point per MB.  Distinct from the per-kernel
+function-pointer-hijack pattern that used to live in 0003-0014
+patches (now reverted via 0015 for ctx, and architecturally retired
+per daedalus-fourier PR #37's measurement-correction).  Per-block
+synchronous Vulkan dispatch from libavcodec was structurally non-
+competitive; per-MB CPU-side observation feeding a per-frame batch
+submit is the right shape.
+
+Two new fields in H264Context (appended at end of struct; no ABI
+surface visible to non-libavcodec callers since H264Context is
+internal — declared in h264dec.h, not h264.h).  One new exported
+function ff_h264_set_mb_inspect_cb to set them.
+
+Zero behaviour change when cb == NULL (the default): one load +
+one branch per MB in the decoder hot path, both branch-predicted
+to fall through.
+
+Used by:
+  - daedalus-decoder/tools/daedalus_decode_h264 (PR-A1b)
+  - daedalus-v4l2 daemon shadow-mode path (PR-Q3a.1+)
+
+The CLI static-links libavcodec.a so symbol visibility doesn't matter
+there.  The daemon dlopens libavcodec.so.62 and resolves the callback
+via dlsym, so the symbol MUST be exported — added to libavcodec.v
+explicitly (FFmpeg's default version script hides every `ff_*` symbol
+as LOCAL behind a glob).
+
+Refs reauktion/daedalus-decoder!12 (Stage 2 PR-b complete).

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/h264: preserve sl->mb coefficients for the inspection
+ callback (companion to 0016)
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Patch 0016 adds a per-MB inspection callback fired at the end of
+ff_h264_hl_decode_mb.  By that time the IDCT-add path has already
+zeroed sl->mb (FFmpeg's convention — see ff_h264_idct_add_neon and
+friends), so consumers reading coefficients from the callback get
+zeros.
+
+Add a coefficient side buffer in H264Context, populated at the
+START of ff_h264_hl_decode_mb (before any IDCT runs) with a single
+memcpy from sl->mb.  The post-pixel-work callback (still in 0016)
+can then read both:
+  - the side-buffer coefficients (= just-entropy-decoded, pre-IDCT)
+  - the reconstructed pixels in h->cur_pic.f->data (= P + IDCT(C),
+    pre-deblock for this MB)
+and the consumer can derive P = pixels − IDCT(C) for daedalus-
+decoder's frame-major dispatch.
+
+Memcpy is gated on (h->mb_inspect_cb != NULL) — zero overhead when
+no consumer is registered.  Buffer size = sizeof(int16_t) * 16 * 48
+= 1536 bytes per H264Context (fits in one cache line family;
+allocated once at H264Context lifetime, reused per MB).
+
+8-bit path only.  High-bit-depth H.264 uses the upper half of
+sl->mb (int16_t[16 * 48 * 2] declared; the * 2 reserves space for
+the high-depth case); preserving the high-depth coefficients
+correctly would need a wider side buffer.  Punted for now — the
+daedalus-decoder consumer is 8-bit-only.
+
+Single-threaded decode assumed at the consumer side (avctx->
+thread_count = 1).  Multi-slice / multi-threaded streams would
+race on the single side buffer — that's an explicit limitation of
+the inspection mechanism, documented in 0016's comment block.
+Future extension: per-H264SliceContext side buffers.
+
+Used by:
+  - daedalus-decoder/tools/daedalus_decode_h264 PR-A3+ (CLI test
+    harness extracts coefficients here for daedalus-decoder
+    IDCT validation on real H.264 streams).
+

+    pre-deblock for this MB)
+and the consumer can derive P = pixels − IDCT(C) for daedalus-
+decoder's frame-major dispatch.
+
+Memcpy is gated on (h->mb_inspect_cb != NULL) — zero overhead when
+no consumer is registered.  Buffer size = sizeof(int16_t) * 16 * 48
+= 1536 bytes per H264Context (fits in one cache line family;
+allocated once at H264Context lifetime, reused per MB).
+
+8-bit path only.  High-bit-depth H.264 uses the upper half of
+sl->mb (int16_t[16 * 48 * 2] declared; the * 2 reserves space for
+the high-depth case); preserving the high-depth coefficients
+correctly would need a wider side buffer.  Punted for now — the
+daedalus-decoder consumer is 8-bit-only.
+
+Single-threaded decode assumed at the consumer side (avctx->
+thread_count = 1).  Multi-slice / multi-threaded streams would
+race on the single side buffer — that's an explicit limitation of
+the inspection mechanism, documented in 0016's comment block.
+Future extension: per-H264SliceContext side buffers.
+
+Used by:
+  - daedalus-decoder/tools/daedalus_decode_h264 PR-A3+ (CLI test
+    harness extracts coefficients here for daedalus-decoder
+    IDCT validation on real H.264 streams).
+
+Refs reauktion/daedalus-decoder!14 (PR-A2 callback wiring).

+  * Amend 0016-h264-mb-inspect-callback.patch to also add
+    ff_h264_set_mb_inspect_cb to libavcodec/libavcodec.v so the
+    symbol is exported (GLOBAL) on the shipped libavcodec.so.62.
+    Without this, FFmpeg's default version script hides every ff_*
+    symbol behind a glob → LOCAL → dlsym() returns NULL.  The CLI
+    consumer (daedalus_decode_h264) was unaffected because it
+    static-links libavcodec.a; the daedalus-v4l2 daemon (PR-Q3a.1
+    shadow_decoder path) dlopens libavcodec.so.62 and needs the
+    symbol resolvable at runtime.
+  * No behaviour change to existing decode path.  Callback is still
+    opt-in via the function pointer (NULL default), so paying the
+    one-load-one-branch cost only when a consumer has explicitly
+    installed an inspection callback.
