+# check-already-published.sh <recipe-dir>
+#
+# Decide whether a given recipe (arch/<name> or debian/<name>) is already
+# present in https://packages.reauktion.de/.  Emits exactly one line to
+# stdout:
+#
+#   skip=1   — package with this version-pkgrel-arch tuple already lives in
+#              the pool; CI should short-circuit.
+#   skip=0   — file is missing or HEAD failed; CI should build + publish.
+#
+# Design notes:
+#   * For Arch recipes we source the PKGBUILD in a clean subshell so
+#     shell expansions (epoch=, ${_pkgver/-/}, pkgname=() arrays) resolve
+#     naturally.  Only the first element of pkgname[] is checked — split
+#     packages share one source tarball / one build, so any-one-missing
+#     forces the full rebuild anyway.
+#   * For Debian recipes we extract the bare top-level PKGVER= /
+#     PKGREL= assignments (plus any other top-level VAR=value lines they
+#     reference) via grep and re-evaluate them in an isolated subshell —
+#     sourcing the entire build-deb.sh would run curl/tar/dpkg-deb
+#     against a tempdir we don't want to materialise here.
+#   * Epoch handling differs by ecosystem: Arch keeps `<epoch>:` in the
+#     pool filename, Debian/reprepro strips it.
+#   * curl --head with -f maps non-2xx to non-zero exit, which is what we
+#     want — 404 means "build it".  -L follows mirrors.  --max-time caps
+#     the worst-case latency per HEAD.

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264dsp: route H.264 4x4 IDCT through
+ daedalus-fourier
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+H264DSPContext.idct_add (called per 4x4 block from the intra-4x4
+decode path in h264_mb.c) now dispatches through
+daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_idct4 instead of ff_h264_idct_add_neon.
+
+The recipe layer picks the substrate; for cycle 6 (H.264 IDCT 4x4)
+the recipe is CPU NEON, so this is effectively a NEON-to-NEON
+substitution with one extra dispatch call and recipe-table lookup.
+Provides the first end-to-end exercise of the daedalus-fourier
+kernel pack inside the libavcodec.so decode hot path; follow-up
+patches wire IDCT 8x8, luma-v deblock, and qpel mc20.
+
+The library context is process-global, lazily initialised under
+pthread_once on first call.  We pick the no-QPU constructor because
+libavcodec.so is loaded into arbitrary host processes
+(firefox-fourier, mpv-fourier, daedalus_v4l2_daemon, ...) and we
+cannot assume the host has a usable Vulkan instance.  Higher cycles
+(deblock luma-v, MC) that benefit from the QPU will provision their
+own recipe-selected context once that path is wired.
+
+Bulk paths (idct_add16, idct_add16intra, idct_add8 — used for
+non-intra4x4 macroblocks) remain on the stock NEON .S implementations
+and will be batched through daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_idct4 with
+n_blocks>1 in a follow-up.
+
+Bit-exact against ff_h264_idct_add_neon (daedalus-fourier cycle 6
+green; see marfrit/daedalus-fourier/CYCLE_LOGS.md).
+
+Refs reauktion/daedalus-v4l2#11 — substitution arc step 2.

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264dsp: route H.264 8x8 IDCT through
+ daedalus-fourier
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+H264DSPContext.idct8_add (called per 8x8 block from the High-profile
+intra-8x8-DCT decode path in h264_mb.c) now dispatches through
+daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_idct8 instead of ff_h264_idct8_add_neon.
+
+The recipe layer picks the substrate; for cycle 7 (H.264 IDCT 8x8)
+the recipe is CPU NEON, so this is effectively a NEON-to-NEON
+substitution layered on top of the cycle-6 IDCT 4x4 wiring.  Same
+pthread_once global context, same destructive-zero semantics; FFmpeg
+column-major 8x8 storage block[r + 8*c] matches daedalus's convention.
+
+Bulk path c->idct8_add4 (used for inter 8x8-DCT macroblocks) remains
+on the in-tree NEON .S code and will be batched through
+daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_idct8 with n_blocks>1 in a follow-up.
+
+Bit-exact against ff_h264_idct8_add_neon (daedalus-fourier cycle 7
+green).

+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+H264DSPContext.v_loop_filter_luma (non-intra bS<4 vertical luma
+deblock, called per macroblock-row edge from the slice deblock
+loop) now dispatches through
+daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_deblock_luma_v instead of
+ff_h264_v_loop_filter_luma_neon.
+
+The recipe layer picks the substrate; for cycle 8 the daedalus
+docstring marks the kernel "CPU primary; QPU opportunistic", but
+the libavcodec.so context here is built with
+daedalus_ctx_create_no_qpu — process-global pthread_once init,
+shared with cycles 6/7.  QPU opportunism stays gated off until a
+follow-up adds an explicit feature flag (no implicit Vulkan init
+in arbitrary host processes).  In the meantime cycle 8 is a
+plumbing-only substitution, NEON-to-NEON via the daedalus recipe.
+
+Intra (bS=4) loop filter — c->v_loop_filter_luma_intra — stays on
+the in-tree NEON .S code; daedalus's daedalus_h264_deblock_meta
+only covers the non-intra path per its docstring.
+
+FFmpeg `int alpha/beta/int8_t tc0[4]` → daedalus_h264_deblock_meta
+(int32_t alpha/beta + inline int8_t tc0[4]).  pix already points
+to row 0 of the bottom block per FFmpeg's deblock convention,
+satisfying daedalus's `dst_off >= 4 * dst_stride` constraint.

+Restore the documented semantics:
+
+  - Early-exit at the top of h264_select_output_frame when the
+    flag is set: emit the just-decoded picture immediately as
+    next_output_pic, mirror the corruption / recovery-point
+    tracking the main path performs, and skip the entire
+    delayed_pic[] / POC reorder machinery.
+
+  - Suppress the SPS-driven has_b_frames clobber in
+    h264_field_start when the flag is set, so the per-slice
+    bitstream_restriction_flag re-pickup cannot reintroduce a
+    nonzero reorder buffer mid-stream.
+
+This is a fork-only change required by the daedalus-v4l2 daemon's
+one-frame-per-send_packet contract; upstream FFmpeg consumers that
+expect display-order output remain untouched (flag default = off).

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264qpel: route 8x8 mc20 through
+ daedalus-fourier
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+H264QpelContext.put_h264_qpel_pixels_tab[1][2] (8x8 luma horizontal
+half-pel, 6-tap "put" variant — the canonical representative of the
+H.264 luma motion-compensation family) now dispatches through
+daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_qpel_mc20 instead of
+ff_put_h264_qpel8_mc20_neon.
+
+Cycle 9 of the daedalus-v4l2#11 step 2 substitution arc; closes the
+4-cycle libavcodec.so substitution sequence (6 IDCT 4x4 / 7 IDCT 8x8 /
+8 luma-v deblock / 9 qpel mc20).
+
+The recipe layer picks the substrate. Per docs/k9_h264qpel_mc20.md
+the verdict is CPU NEON: per-block 7.6 ns at 131 Mblock/s gives 135x
+margin over 30 fps 1080p, and the QPU dispatch floor (~250 ns)
+makes any V3D shader strictly worse. Substitution is plumbing-only,
+NEON-by-recipe — same daedalus_ctx_create_no_qpu pthread_once
+context shape the cycles 6/7/8 shims already own (kept SEPARATE
+from the H264DSP shim's ctx because H264QPEL is its own libavcodec
+Makefile module and link order does not guarantee a single .o
+owns the ctx symbol; one extra ~µs init per process, paid lazily).
+
+Other H.264 luma MC variants (mc02, mc11, mc22 etc.) and the 16x16
+size tier stay on the in-tree NEON .S code. Per the cycle-9 phase-1
+rationale, mc20 8x8 is representative of the whole family's per-block
+cost — extending the substitution to other variants would multiply
+recipe-lookup overhead without changing the substrate verdict.
+
+Bit-exact against ff_put_h264_qpel8_mc20_neon (daedalus-fourier
+cycle 9 green; M1 = 100% bit-exact across 10000 random blocks).
+
+No SONAME change, no Depends change.
+

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264dsp: route H.264 luma-h deblock through daedalus-fourier
+
+Sibling of 0005 (which substituted v_loop_filter_luma).  Same
+NEON-to-NEON substitution: H264DSPContext.h_loop_filter_luma →
+daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_deblock_luma_h.  The H kernel landed
+in daedalus-fourier PR #9 (CPU NEON only — no QPU shader yet).
+
+libavcodec.so ctx is no-QPU per the existing 0003-0005 / 0007
+pattern; we cannot assume Vulkan in arbitrary host processes
+(firefox-fourier RDD, mpv-fourier, etc.).
+
+Intra (bS=4) h_loop_filter_luma_intra stays on the in-tree NEON .S
+code; daedalus_h264_deblock_meta only covers the non-intra path.
+An intra-h substitution can land once daedalus-fourier exposes a
+dispatch helper (the kernel already exists internally per PR #11).

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264dsp: route H.264 luma intra deblock through daedalus-fourier
+
+Adds the bS=4 intra-strength variants of the already-substituted
+luma_v / luma_h deblock (0005, 0008).  Intra MBs and certain
+inter-MB edges (4x4 transform boundaries inside an Intra_NxN
+neighbour) force boundary strength to 4 per H.264 §8.7.2.1.
+
+  H264DSPContext.v_loop_filter_luma_intra →
+    daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_deblock_luma_v_intra
+  H264DSPContext.h_loop_filter_luma_intra →
+    daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_deblock_luma_h_intra
+
+Both kernels landed in daedalus-fourier PR #11.  Recipe table
+routes AUTO to CPU NEON (no intra QPU shaders yet) — plumbing-
+only NEON-to-NEON via daedalus, bit-exact against the in-tree
+FFmpeg NEON path.
+
+Signature differs from bS<4: no tc0 argument.  The wrapper
+passes daedalus_h264_deblock_meta with alpha/beta set; tc0[] is
+ignored by the intra dispatch (bS=4 hardcodes the strength).
+
+Chroma intra variants are deferred to a follow-up PR because the
+chroma path has a 4:2:0 / 4:2:2 split (chroma_format_idc gating)
+that needs explicit conditional substitution to avoid running
+the 4:2:0-only daedalus dispatch on 4:2:2 chroma.
+
+Refs reauktion/daedalus-v4l2#11 — substitution arc step 2 cycle 8 intra.

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264dsp: route H.264 chroma DC Hadamard through daedalus-fourier
+
+Substitutes H264DSPContext.chroma_dc_dequant_idct in the
+4:2:0 / bit_depth=8 init path with a wrapper that composes
+the daedalus chroma DC Hadamard primitive (fourier PR #25)
+with qmul scaling FFmpeg does in one fused function.
+
+Bit-exact against ff_h264_chroma_dc_dequant_idct_8_c.
+Hadamard correctness gated by fourier PR #23 test suite.
+
+4:2:2 chroma stays on the in-tree 422 variant (same
+gating shape as 0009 chroma deblock substitution).
+
+Requires daedalus-fourier commit b9f9ff2 or later (PR #25
+exposing the public Hadamard symbol).  Pin bumps in PKGBUILD
+and build-deb.sh come in the same commit.

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264qpel: route remaining qpel 8x8 positions through daedalus-fourier
+
+Closes the H.264 qpel substitution.  Extends 0007 (which routed only
+mc20 put_) to ALL 15 useful positions in BOTH the put_ and avg_
+tables, skipping mc00 (integer copy / pointer-only fast path).
+
+29 substitutions total: 14 new put_ + 15 avg_.  Each is a uniform
+wrapper around daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_qpel_{avg_,}mcXY exposed
+by daedalus-fourier PRs #15-#20.
+
+All recipe-table entries route AUTO to CPU NEON (no QPU shaders
+for any qpel position other than mc20 yet), so this is plumbing-only
+NEON-to-NEON — bit-exact against the in-tree ff_*_h264_qpel8_*_neon
+path.
+
+16x16 qpel tables ([0][...]) stay on the in-tree NEON.  daedalus
+only exposes 8x8 today; 16x16 substitution can land once fourier
+provides those variants (likely just dispatching the 8x8 path four
+times with shifted dst/src offsets).
+
+Refs reauktion/daedalus-v4l2#11 — substitution arc qpel buildout.

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264dsp: route H.264 chroma intra deblock (4:2:0) through daedalus-fourier
+
+Substitutes c->v_loop_filter_chroma_intra and c->h_loop_filter_chroma_intra
+with daedalus wrappers in the bit_depth=8 / chroma_format_idc<=1 (4:2:0)
+branch.  4:2:2 stays on the in-tree NEON path (the daedalus chroma intra
+dispatch is 4:2:0-only).
+
+The fourier dispatches were exposed in PR #11 (DEFINE_INTRA_DISPATCH
+macro generates the public daedalus_dispatch_h264_deblock_chroma_*_intra
+symbols + recipe wrappers).
+
+Re-architects the chroma init: v_loop_filter_chroma_intra was previously
+assigned unconditionally to the NEON variant (which works for both 4:2:0
+and 4:2:2).  We now assign it INSIDE both branches of the chroma_format_idc
+conditional, with the 4:2:0 branch picking daedalus and the 4:2:2 branch
+keeping NEON.  No regression for 4:2:2 streams.
+
+Same NEON-to-NEON via recipe shape as 0010 luma intra.
+
+Refs reauktion/daedalus-v4l2#11 — substitution arc chroma intra.

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264: use QPU-capable daedalus ctx (bench
+ shows 4.30x faster on Pi 5)
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Patches 0003 (IDCT 4x4) and 0007 (qpel mc20) created the libavcodec.so
+process-global daedalus_ctx via daedalus_ctx_create_no_qpu().  Rationale
+at the time: cycle 6/9 had only CPU NEON paths, so a QPU-capable ctx
+would have meant pointless Vulkan init in every host process (firefox-
+fourier, mpv-fourier, daedalus_v4l2_daemon, ...).
+
+Two things changed since:
+
+  1. Every H.264 hot-path primitive now has a V3D7 compute shader.
+     IDCT 4x4/8x8 (cycles 6, 7), 8 deblock variants (luma+chroma x V+H
+     x inter+intra), 30 qpel positions (15 put_ + 15 avg_).  See
+     daedalus-fourier PRs #28-#35.
+
+  2. Dispatch overhead has been hammered down — buffer pool in
+     v3d_runner (daedalus-fourier task #160) plus persistent command
+     buffer (task #161).  daedalus-fourier PR #36 bench measures the
+     1080p worst-case sum on hertz (Pi 5 V3D 7.1, 30 iters x 5 warmup):
+
+       kernel             CPU ns/op  QPU ns/op  winner
+       IDCT 4x4 luma          10.79       2.47  QPU 4.36x
+       IDCT 8x8 luma          29.69       9.23  QPU 3.22x
+       Deblock luma_v         17.58      10.21  QPU 1.72x

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264: revert ctx flip — daedalus-fourier PR
+ #36 was a measurement artifact
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Reverts the daedalus_ctx_create_no_qpu() → daedalus_ctx_create() flip
+that landed in 0014-h264-ctx-qpu-capable.patch (marfrit-packages PR
+#104).  The flip was justified by daedalus-fourier PR #36 which
+reported a 4.30x QPU-over-CPU win on the 1080p H.264 hot-path sum.
+
+That number was a measurement artifact.  The bench tool's
+v3d_runner.read_spv() did a bare fopen() that resolved relative to
+cwd; when run from the source directory (as in PR #36), the SPVs at
+$builddir/v3d_*.spv were not found, every QPU dispatch returned -1
+fast, and the loop timed the failure path.  Daedalus-fourier PR #37
+fixes the SPV search + bench preflight; corrected numbers from hertz
+(Pi 5 V3D 7.1) show QPU is 12-77x SLOWER than CPU NEON at every
+H.264 hot-path kernel:
+
+  kernel             CPU ns/op  QPU ns/op  winner
+  IDCT 4x4 luma          10.75     217.63  CPU 20.24x
+  IDCT 8x8 luma          29.69     785.94  CPU 26.47x
+  Deblock luma_v         17.63     467.42  CPU 26.51x
+  Deblock luma_h         38.30     498.53  CPU 13.02x
+  qpel mc20 (8x8)        30.17    1300.44  CPU 43.10x
+  qpel mc02 (8x8)        17.69    1363.40  CPU 77.08x
+  qpel mc22 (8x8)        71.60    1948.37  CPU 27.21x
+
+  1080p sum: CPU 5.57 ms vs QPU 123.54 ms — QPU 22x slower.
+
+Until the daedalus QPU dispatch overhead is actually competitive (a
+multi-task effort tracked on the daedalus-fourier side), the
+libavcodec.so substitution must stay on daedalus_ctx_create_no_qpu()
+to avoid pessimizing every host process that loads it
+(firefox-fourier RDD, mpv-fourier, daedalus_v4l2_daemon).
+
+Both H.264 TUs (h264_idct_daedalus.c, h264_qpel_daedalus.c) are
+reverted; the change is a 2-line revert of patch 0014.

+ 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).

+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).

@@ -18,27 +18,30 @@ This patch adds a sibling init path, `InitV4L2RequestDecoder`, that:
   * looks up the codec via two complementary mechanisms libavcodec
     uses for v4l2_request:
       - **named codec** (`h264_v4l2request`, `vp8_v4l2request`, etc.):
-        the legacy AVCodec-per-hwaccel registration. ALARM, Debian,
-        and most distros building with --enable-v4l2-request expose
-        this (avcodec_find_decoder_by_name lookup).
-      - **generic codec + AV_HWDEVICE_TYPE_DRM** in `hw_configs`:
-        the modern hwaccel registration on some upstream-only ffmpeg
-        builds.
+        the legacy AVCodec-per-hwaccel registration.
+      - **generic codec + hw_configs walk**: the modern hwaccel
+        registration. Accepts EITHER AV_HWDEVICE_TYPE_DRM (legacy
+        ffmpeg-v4l2-request-fork output prior to FFmpeg 7.1) OR
+        AV_HWDEVICE_TYPE_V4L2REQUEST (FFmpeg 7.1+ dedicated enum,
+        value 13 on Kwiboo's no-AMF tree, 14 on upstream-AMF tree).
+        Mozilla's bundled libavutil headers may not have the V4L2REQUEST
+        enumerator, so the test is on the integer value via `(int)cast`.
     Probes named-codec first (explicit, portable) and falls back to
-    walking the generic codec's `hw_configs` for the DRM device type;
-  * creates an `AV_HWDEVICE_TYPE_DRM` hwdevice context bound to
-    `/dev/dri/renderD128` via the new `av_hwdevice_ctx_create` wrapper
-    (patch 2/4) and attaches it to the codec context;
+    walking the generic codec's `hw_configs` for either device type;
+  * creates an hwdevice context bound to `/dev/dri/renderD128`. Uses
+    integer 13 (V4L2REQUEST as defined by Kwiboo's v4l2-request-n7.1.3
+    tree, what our libavcodec61-fourier emits) cast to enum
+    AVHWDeviceType for the av_hwdevice_ctx_create call;
   * reuses the existing `ChooseV4L2PixelFormat` get-format callback
     (already returns `AV_PIX_FMT_DRM_PRIME`) and the existing
     `apply_cropping = 0` constraint.
 
 `InitV4L2RequestDecoder` is invoked **before** `InitV4L2Decoder` in
 `InitHWDecoderIfAllowed`. On Rockchip mainline it succeeds via either
-mechanism (ALARM uses the named codec). On Pi4 / Mediatek /

+Subject: panvk: expose VK_KHR/EXT_robustness2 + nullDescriptor on Bifrost (PAN_ARCH 6/7)
+
+Without this, Mesa's Zink driver refuses to use PanVk-Bifrost as its Vulkan
+backend, falling back silently to llvmpipe (software rasterizer) for all
+GL-via-Zink on Bifrost SBCs. That defeats the entire purpose of having a
+Vulkan driver on Bifrost — GL acceleration via Zink is the most natural
+near-term consumer.
+
+panvk_vX_nir_lower_descriptors.c:1309 and panvk_vX_shader.c:1355 already
+plumb dev->vk.enabled_features.nullDescriptor arch-agnostically — the gate
+at panvk_vX_physical_device.c was set conservatively when Bifrost was
+unmaintained, not because of hardware incapability.
+
+iter1–7 of the panvk-bifrost campaign proved fundamental driver functions
+on Mali-G52 r1 MC1 (PAN_ARCH=7). This patch is the iter8 follow-up.
+
+robustBufferAccess2 and robustImageAccess2 are NOT flipped — they're
+independent rb2 features Zink doesn't require, gated differently
+(robustBufferAccess2 = PAN_ARCH >= 11, robustImageAccess2 = false), and
+out of scope for iter8.

+Subject: panvk: expose Vulkan 1.1 + 1.2 on Bifrost (PAN_ARCH 6/7)
+
+ANGLE (Chromium's GL stack) requires apiVersion >= 1.1 to initialize. Without
+this, Brave / Chromium's GPU process fails at GL info collection:
+
+  vk_renderer.cpp:2659 (initialize): ANGLE Requires a minimum Vulkan device
+                                     version of 1.1
+  Display::initialize error 0: Internal Vulkan error (-9): The requested
+                               version of Vulkan is not supported by the driver
+
+Stack-up with iter8's robustness2 patch enables ANGLE → PanVk-Bifrost →
+Skia (via --enable-features=Vulkan) on Bifrost SBCs.
+
+PanVk-Bifrost already supports the bulk of 1.1-promoted features as extensions
+(multiview, maintenance1-3, descriptor update template, 16-bit storage,
+descriptor update template, sampler ycbcr, variable pointers, etc. — all
+visible in iter0 vulkaninfo). The version bump primarily bundles them.
+
+Risk: Vulkan 1.1 has features beyond what iter1–7 exercised (protected memory,
+full subgroup ops). Specific app failures will be characterizable.
+
+1.2 is also flipped — Brave's Vulkan path may want descriptor indexing,
+buffer device address, etc. (all listed in iter0 vulkaninfo as supported
+extensions, just gated as 1.0-with-extensions, not 1.2-core).

++ * iter17: panvk-specific replacement for pan_nir_lower_xfb that handles
++ * primitive decomposition for transform_feedback on non-LIST topologies
++ * (TRIANGLE_STRIP/FAN, LINE_STRIP, *_WITH_ADJACENCY).
++ *
++ * Approach: emit a topology dispatch at the start of each store_output
++ * lowering. The shader reads vs.xfb_topology sysval at runtime and branches
++ * into per-topology emission logic. For each affected topology, the lowered
++ * code emits guarded conditional stores — one per primitive this vertex
++ * contributes to, computing the output buffer position via primitive index
++ * and slot within the decomposed primitive.
++ *
++ * For LIST topologies (POINT/LINE/TRIANGLE LIST), takes a fast path that
++ * matches iter13's single-store behavior.
++ *
++ * For TRIANGLE_FAN, the central vertex (v=0) contributes to ALL primitives
++ * as slot 2 — handled via a NIR loop bounded by num_vertices.

+# mesa-panvk-bifrost-video — sibling of mesa-panvk-bifrost (r4) that adds
+# VK_KHR_video_decode_h264 on Mali Bifrost SBCs (PAN_ARCH 6/7) backed by
+# the SoC's V4L2-stateless hantro VPU (RK3566/RK3568).
+#
+# Campaign: ~/src/panvk-bifrost-video/ — Phase 4 byte-exact validated
+# 2026-05-21 (48/48 BBB display frames match ffmpeg+libva-v4l2-request-
+# fourier byte-for-byte on the same hantro). Phase 5 second-model review
+# completed; load-bearing findings (output_map OOB, static counter,
+# session_init unwind, probe_hantro gate) all applied.
+#
+# What it does (on top of r4):
+#   - 0001..0004: inherited from mesa-panvk-bifrost (robustness2/null-
+#     descriptor, vk1.1/1.2 advertisement, EXT_transform_feedback, XFB
+#     primitive decomposition) — symlinked from the r4 package directory
+#     so the patches don't drift between siblings.
+#   - 0005: VK_KHR_video_queue + VK_KHR_video_decode_queue +
+#     VK_KHR_video_decode_h264 backed by V4L2-stateless hantro.
+#     Touches 14 files in src/panfrost/vulkan/; full diff in
+#     0005-panvk-bifrost-video-KHR-video-decode-h264.patch.
+#
+# Co-existence:
+#   - Installs to /usr/lib/panvk-bifrost-video/ (parallel to r4's
+#     /usr/lib/panvk-bifrost/). Pick at runtime via VK_ICD_FILENAMES.
+#   - r4 stays the recommended default for the Chromium-GPU-process
+#     consumer (no video needed there). Use this package when the
+#     consumer wants Vulkan video decode (mpv-fourier, ffmpeg-vulkan,
+#     future Chromium-VulkanVideoDecoder).
+#
+# Phase 1 limitations to know about (documented in source comments):
+#   - Single video session per device (active_video singleton)
+#   - Synchronous decode at record time — no pipelining yet
+#   - Hardcoded /dev/video1 + /dev/media0 (matches RK3566/68, blocks
+#     other SoCs without a topology-walk port)
+#   - Bitstream source buffer assumed HOST_VISIBLE (true on panvk-
+#     bifrost, would need fallback on other backends)
+#
+# Build target: arch-aarch64 runner via marfrit-packages Gitea Actions.
+# Mesa build is slow (~30-60min on Cortex-A55).

+# mesa-panvk-bifrost-video
+
+Patched Mesa `libvulkan_panfrost.so` that **adds `VK_KHR_video_decode_h264`** on Mali Bifrost SBCs (PAN_ARCH 6/7, RK3566/RK3568 class hardware), backed by the SoC's V4L2-stateless **hantro** VPU.
+
+This is a **sibling** of [mesa-panvk-bifrost](../mesa-panvk-bifrost/) (the r4 package that exposes Bifrost to Chromium's Vulkan compositor). Pick this one when the consumer wants Vulkan **video decode** in addition; pick r4 for compositor-only.
+
+## Status
+
+Phase 4 byte-exact validated 2026-05-21: 48/48 unique BBB display frames decoded by this package are byte-identical to `ffmpeg+libva-v4l2-request-fourier` running on the same hantro hardware. Phase 5 second-model review completed; all load-bearing findings addressed. First publish via marfrit-packages CI 2026-05-22 (PR #79 merge did not auto-fire Actions; this re-trigger restores the standard build/sign/publish path).
+
+## How to use
+
+```sh
+# Co-installs alongside r4 and stock mesa.
+sudo pacman -S mesa-panvk-bifrost-video
+
+# Opt in (not on the default loader search path).
+export VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/lib/panvk-bifrost-video/icd.json
+export PAN_I_WANT_A_BROKEN_VULKAN_DRIVER=1   # mesa-upstream gate
+
+# Run a Vulkan video consumer.
+vulkan-video-dec-simple-test -i your.h264 --codec h264 --noPresent --maxFrameCount 50
+# or
+ffmpeg -hwaccel vulkan -i your.mp4 ...
+```
+
+## Phase 1 limitations
+
+Documented in source comments and worth knowing before relying on this in production:
+
+- **Single video session per device.** Concurrent `VkVideoSessionKHR` on the same device clobber each other (`active_video` singleton). Sufficient for current single-stream consumers.
+- **Synchronous decode at record time.** The full V4L2 ioctl dance runs to completion inside `vkCmdDecodeVideoKHR`. No pipelining. Throughput is bounded by hantro's ~1.16× realtime on 1080p H.264.
+- **Hardcoded `/dev/video1` + `/dev/media0`.** Matches RK3566/68 but won't work on other SoCs without a topology-walk port (see `libva-v4l2-request-fourier` for the full version).
+- **Bitstream source buffer assumed HOST_VISIBLE.** True on panvk-bifrost (no DEVICE_LOCAL-only memory types exist), but the code silently skips decode if the app bound the buffer to non-host-visible memory.
+
+## Co-existence
+
+- Installs to `/usr/lib/panvk-bifrost-video/` — parallel to r4's `/usr/lib/panvk-bifrost/` and stock `/usr/lib/`.
+- Opt-in via `VK_ICD_FILENAMES`; does NOT register itself in `/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/`.
+- Three drivers coexist without conflict; the user picks at runtime which to use.

++ * iter17: panvk-specific replacement for pan_nir_lower_xfb that handles
++ * primitive decomposition for transform_feedback on non-LIST topologies
++ * (TRIANGLE_STRIP/FAN, LINE_STRIP, *_WITH_ADJACENCY).
++ *
++ * Approach: emit a topology dispatch at the start of each store_output
++ * lowering. The shader reads vs.xfb_topology sysval at runtime and branches
++ * into per-topology emission logic. For each affected topology, the lowered
++ * code emits guarded conditional stores — one per primitive this vertex
++ * contributes to, computing the output buffer position via primitive index
++ * and slot within the decomposed primitive.
++ *
++ * For LIST topologies (POINT/LINE/TRIANGLE LIST), takes a fast path that
++ * matches iter13's single-store behavior.
++ *
++ * For TRIANGLE_FAN, the central vertex (v=0) contributes to ALL primitives
++ * as slot 2 — handled via a NIR loop bounded by num_vertices.

+Subject: [PATCH] panvk: report fragmentStoresAndAtomics = true on Bifrost
+
+Backports Mesa main's unconditional advertisement of
+fragmentStoresAndAtomics for panvk (snapshot ref: src/panfrost/vulkan/
+panvk_vX_physical_device.c at commit-time 2026-05-06; the line reads
+`.fragmentStoresAndAtomics = true,` on main with no PAN_ARCH gate).
+
+Motivation: Chromium Dawn's WebGPU initializer in
+third_party/dawn/src/dawn/native/vulkan/PhysicalDeviceVk.cpp:250
+unconditionally rejects any Vulkan adapter that doesn't advertise this
+feature, causing Dawn to fall back to the SwiftShader CPU adapter
+on PineTab2 / RK3566 / Mali-G52 r1 MC1 (PAN_ARCH 7). With this patch the
+device advertises true, satisfying Dawn's gate. Tracked at
+https://git.reauktion.de/marfrit/panvk-bifrost/issues/2.
+
+The disjunction with `instance->force_enable_shader_atomics` is
+preserved as a kill-switch: in compiler terms it's dead code
+(`true || X == true`), but it leaves the DRI option
+`pan_force_enable_shader_atomics` semantically wired so future
+rebases or downstream debugging can see the link to the runtime knob.
+
+Caveat: the existing DRI option's description in src/util/driconf.h
+still labels this as "may not work reliably and is for debug purposes
+only". Mesa main's choice to ship it as default-on for all panvk
+architectures (including Bifrost, which is non-conformant per the
+PAN_I_WANT_A_BROKEN_VULKAN_DRIVER gate) reflects an upstream judgment
+that the practical risk is acceptable. Verify-before-ship for this
+package: dEQP-VK.glsl.atomic_operations.* + dEQP-VK.image.store.*
+deltas vs the r4 baseline must show no new fails. Pass counts may rise
+(tests that previously NotSupported now run); the load-bearing line is
+the Failed column staying at zero.

+Subject: [PATCH] panvk: advertise VK_EXT_legacy_dithering on Bifrost
+
+Backports Mesa main's flip — vanilla 26.0.6 doesn't have the extension
+in the panvk advertisement list; main does (line 172 / 647 on snapshot
+617da94, 2026-05-06).
+
+VK_EXT_legacy_dithering exposes the classic OpenGL-style dithering
+behavior to Vulkan apps. Pure-software composition; no new HW path.
+ARM's own libmali driver release r51p0 (BXODROIDN2PL, Aug 2024) lists
+this extension in its Vulkan implementation for ODROID-N2 boards
+using the same Mali-G52 architecture family — confirms ARM ships it
+for Mali-G52-class hardware.
+
+Consumer benefit: dithering matters for low-bit-depth framebuffers
+(RGB565 / RGB5A1 — common on portable / battery-saving renders)
+where banding is visible. DXVK / vkd3d-proton both opt in when
+available.
+
+Verify-before-ship: vulkaninfo lists the extension and
+VkPhysicalDeviceLegacyDitheringFeaturesEXT.legacyDithering == true.

+Subject: [PATCH] panvk-bifrost: fix XFB store channel-extract for packed varyings
+
+iter19 — fixes a reliable SIGSEGV during vkCreateGraphicsPipeline on any
+shader that uses XFB-bound varyings declared with non-zero `layout
+(component=N)` qualifiers. Surfaced by
+dEQP-VK.transform_feedback.simple.holes_vert; backtrace lands 11 frames
+into libvulkan_panfrost.so called from `vkt::TransformFeedback::
+TransformFeedbackHolesInstance::iterate`.
+
+Root cause: `lower_xfb_output_iter17` (and upstream `lower_xfb_output`,
+which carries a `// TODO` on the same assertion) computes the source-
+channel mask as `mask << channel_idx`, where `channel_idx` is the
+varying-location component (0..3) but `src` only contains channels for
+the source-side range starting at `nir_intrinsic_component(intr)`. For
+`flat out float vegeta` declared with `component=2`, NIR emits
+`store_output src=<vec1>, component=2`, and the lowering computes
+`mask << 2` against a single-component src — out-of-range; the
+resulting malformed nir_def then segfaults inside downstream NIR
+constant-folding (`nir_constant_expressions.c::evaluate_*`).
+
+The assertion `assert(nir_intrinsic_component(intr) == 0)` was inherited
+from upstream `pan_nir_lower_xfb.c` as a documented `// TODO`; release
+builds (-DNDEBUG) elide it. The fix translates `channel_idx` to the
+source-channel space by subtracting `nir_intrinsic_component(intr)`
+before shifting the mask, and replaces the elided asserts with explicit
+release-mode guards (the patch closes the same release-mode-elision
+class as the original bug).
+
+Verified on PineTab2 (Mali-G52 r1 MC1, PAN_ARCH 7) against vulkan-cts
+1.3.10.0:
+  - holes_vert / holes_extra_draw_vert no longer SIGSEGV (now Fail on
+    color-check; that is a separate iter20 finding — the rasterized
+    varying gets removed alongside the XFB-bound one).
+  - basic_*: 36/36 Pass. depth_clip_*: 1 Pass + 4 NotSupported.
+    lines_or_triangles*: 16 NotSupported. 0 Fail across the full set.
+  - holes_geom / holes_extra_draw_geom remain NotSupported
+    (geometryShader not on G52) — unchanged.
+
+Caveat: max_output_components_64/_128/_256 were never reached on the
+r5 sweep (watchdog killed transform_feedback after the holes_vert
+crash). With this fix in place, those tests now run and surface
+*their own pre-existing* coredumps — confirmed on shipped r6 baseline
+too. They are NOT regressions from this patch; they are latent crashes
+unmasked by it. iter20+ territory.
+
+Phase 5 (2nd-model) review: APPROVE WITH CHANGES (non-blocking).
+Changes applied: release-mode defensive guards on both preconditions
+plus a dispatcher-side comment clarifying the i*2+j semantics.

+Subject: [PATCH] panvk-bifrost: bump maxImageDimension3D to 2048 (unblock Dawn/WebGPU)
+
+iter22 / r9 — surfaced by panvk-bifrost-perf-measurement iter1 spike
+(2026-05-25). Brave's WebGPU/Dawn detects our shipped r7 driver as a
+Vulkan adapter ("Mali-G52 r1 MC1 - panvk: Mesa 26.0.6", vendorId=0x13b5
+deviceId=0x74021000), but immediately rejects it with:
+
+  Warning: Insufficient Vulkan limits for maxTextureDimension3D.
+  VkPhysicalDeviceLimits::maxImageDimension3D must be at least 2048
+    at InitializeSupportedLimitsInternal
+    (third_party/dawn/src/dawn/native/vulkan/PhysicalDeviceVk.cpp:746)
+
+This is the actual unblock for the campaign's stated motivator
+(Chromium GPU process Vulkan boot on PineTab2 / Bifrost SBCs).
+
+## Hunk 1 — bump the advertised basic limit
+
+Was: `.maxImageDimension3D = PAN_ARCH <= 10 ? (1 << 9) : (1 << 14);`
+     (PAN_ARCH 7 advertised 512 — below WebGPU's 2048 minimum.)
+Now: bumped to (1 << 11) = 2048 on PAN_ARCH 7..10.
+
+Per Vulkan 1.3 spec §43.1, `maxImageDimensionXD` is the upper bound on
+any creatable image; per-format limits (via `get_max_3d_image_size()`
+returned through `vkGetPhysicalDeviceImageFormatProperties`) MAY be
+smaller. On PAN_ARCH<=10 the per-format limit caps at ~1023 per axis
+for RGBA8 (within the 4 GB max_img_size_B = 2^32 address constraint).
+Apps that try a 2048^3 RGBA8 image hit the per-format limit at image
+create time — per-spec behavior. Dawn handles this exact split
+correctly per its own architecture; the basic limit is what gates
+adapter acceptance.
+
+## Hunk 2 — remove three wrong-invariant asserts
+
+Phase 5 (2nd-model) review caught a release-mode-masked semantic bug:
+`get_max_3d_image_size()` had three asserts of the shape:
+
+  assert(ret.width >= phys_dev->vk.properties.maxImageDimension3D);
+
+This encodes "per-format max >= basic limit" — the OPPOSITE of what
+the Vulkan spec mandates. The asserts no-op in our shipped release
+builds via NDEBUG, but debug builds (`b_ndebug=false`) and any future
+CTS-with-asserts run abort the first time Dawn or any other client
+calls `vkGetPhysicalDeviceImageFormatProperties(3D, format)` post-r9.
+
+Removing the asserts fixes the latent semantic violation. The
+function still correctly returns the per-format max via the existing
+MIN2(...) clamping; the spec-permitted relationship (basic >= any
+per-format) is now also permitted in code.
+
+## Verification
+
+- vulkaninfo against the rebuilt lib: `maxImageDimension3D = 2048`
+- Brave/Dawn: re-spawned post-fix, the "Insufficient" Vulkan limits
+  warning no longer appears in the GPU-process log. Adapter is
+  accepted for WebGPU.
+- CTS regression: `dEQP-VK.api.copy_and_blit.core.image_to_image.3d_images.*`
+  6/6 Pass (unchanged from baseline).
+
+## Phase 5 review
+
+APPROVE WITH CHANGES (non-blocking for release ship; blocking for
+downstream tree because of the assert exposure in debug builds). Both
+change classes addressed in this patch. Review findings on math nit
+(actual 1023 not 1009 for RGBA8 — patched comment) noted; comment
+above uses ~1009 to match the close doc, this is cosmetic.

+ Chromium ${PKGVER} with three patches enabling V4L2 hardware video
+ decoding on mainline Linux / Wayland for Rockchip SoCs (RK3566 hantro,
+ RK3588 VDPU381).
+ .
+ Cross-compiled from x86_64 using chromium's bundled clang (upstream
+ LLVM cannot compile chromium). Runtime target is aarch64.
+ .
+ Patches: enable-v4l2-decoder-default, wayland-allow-direct-egl-gles2,
+ nv12-external-oes-on-modifier-external-only.
+ .
+ Launcher at /usr/bin/chromium-fourier defaults to Wayland + ANGLE/GLES
+ with Vulkan disabled (panvk on RK3566 breaks V4L2 dispatch).

+    Wire-protocol cap DAEDALUS_PROTO_MAX_PAYLOAD raised from 64 KiB
+    to 1 MiB in include/daedalus_v4l2_proto.h.  The kernel module

+    and daedalus_fill_output_fmt now reports OUTPUT_MPLANE
+    sizeimage = ~1 MiB instead of 65484.
+  * Skips the r33 -> r45 commit range — between 5d8b436 and 872eec5
+    only one kernel/include change landed (the PROTO_MAX_PAYLOAD
+    bump above).  The intervening daemon-only bumps (r37 / r39 /
+    r41 / r43) didn't touch kernel/ or include/ at all.
+  * Effective wire cap is min(kernel, daemon) — lock-step install
+    WITH daedalus-v4l2 0.1.0+r45+g872eec5 REQUIRED.
+  * Allocations (kmemdup / kmalloc on payload, vb2 plane backing)
+    are dynamic and sized per-payload at runtime; the bump only
+    sets the ceiling.  KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE on aarch64 SLUB is several
+    MiB so 1 MiB is well within bounds.

+  * Bump to 6ffe92b — fixes the kernel panic regression introduced
+    by 79256dc's split-completion design (closes daedalus-v4l2#8).
+    `device_run` now removes both src + dst from `m2m_ctx`'s
+    rdy_queue at pickup time, not at `buf_done` time.  Without
+    this, after `SRC_CONSUMED`'s `job_finish` released the m2m
+    scheduler, the NEXT `device_run` saw the still-queued parked
+    dst_buf and paired it with a fresh src — two inflight entries
+    referencing the same vb2_buffer, the later `HAS_PIXELS`
+    triggered list_del on an already-detached list_head, smashing
+    the rdy_queue → hard reboot on Pi CM5 during `mpv vaapi-copy`
+    playback of 720p H.264 (2026-05-21).
+  * Wire protocol unchanged — DAEDALUS_PROTO_VERSION stays at 1.
+    Daemon (userspace daedalus-v4l2 package) need NOT bump in
+    lockstep with this DKMS update; the existing
+    daedalus-v4l2 0.1.0+r28+g79256dc is wire-compatible with

+
+  * Bump to 79256dc — H.264 B-frame display reorder fix (closes
+    daedalus-v4l2#6).  libavcodec's H.264 decoder reorders output to
+    display order before returning from avcodec_receive_frame; the
+    daemon was binding each REQ_DECODE's pixels to the cookie of the
+    bitstream that triggered the receive_frame call, not the cookie
+    of the bitstream that actually produced the picture.  For B-frame
+    sequences this paired cookie N's CAPTURE buffer with cookie N-2's
+    pixels and silently lost intermediate frames — visible as
+    "2 1 4 3 6 5" frame pairing in mpv / Firefox on Pi CM5.
+  * Wire-protocol bump (DAEDALUS_PROTO_VERSION 0 → 1): REQ_DECODE
+    gains __u64 src_pts; RESP_FRAME gains __u32 flags +
+    __u64 output_src_pts.  Kernel + daemon must install atomically
+    (this package + daedalus-v4l2 0.1.0+r28+g79256dc).

+
+  * Bump to 77e14e5 — picks up daedalus-v4l2 PRs #12 + #13.
+  * #12 (LOW_DELAY half-measure): the daemon now sets
+    AV_CODEC_FLAG_LOW_DELAY on the H.264 AVCodecContext so libavcodec
+    emits frames in decode order ~99% of the time (a few stragglers
+    at GOP boundaries when the stream's SPS num_reorder_frames
+    overrides the flag).  Visible improvement vs the 2-1-4-3
+    pair-swap on Firefox YouTube + mpv playback; not a permanent
+    fix (see #11 for the architectural plan).
+  * #13 (daedalus-fourier linkage): the daemon now pkg-config-links
+    against the daedalus-fourier kernel library (marfrit/
+    daedalus-fourier) and logs substrate availability at startup.
+    No kernels dispatched yet — this is the build-time / link-time
+    foundation for the H.264 daemon-rewrite plan in #11
+    (substituting daedalus-fourier IDCT 4×4 / IDCT 8×8 / luma
+    deblock primitives for libavcodec's per-MB pixel math, one
+    cycle at a time, measuring CPU saved per substitution).
+  * Build-deb.sh now fetches + builds + installs daedalus-fourier
+    (pinned at d87239d, marfrit/daedalus-fourier PR #1) into a
+    per-build temp prefix, then builds the daemon with
+    PKG_CONFIG_PATH pointing at it.  daedalus-fourier is
+    statically linked into the daemon binary, so the resulting
+    .deb has no new runtime deps.  Requires libvulkan-dev +
+    glslang-tools on the CI runner (the daedalus-fourier benches

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264dsp: route H.264 4x4 IDCT through
+ daedalus-fourier
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+H264DSPContext.idct_add (called per 4x4 block from the intra-4x4
+decode path in h264_mb.c) now dispatches through
+daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_idct4 instead of ff_h264_idct_add_neon.
+
+The recipe layer picks the substrate; for cycle 6 (H.264 IDCT 4x4)
+the recipe is CPU NEON, so this is effectively a NEON-to-NEON
+substitution with one extra dispatch call and recipe-table lookup.
+Provides the first end-to-end exercise of the daedalus-fourier
+kernel pack inside the libavcodec.so decode hot path; follow-up
+patches wire IDCT 8x8, luma-v deblock, and qpel mc20.
+
+The library context is process-global, lazily initialised under
+pthread_once on first call.  We pick the no-QPU constructor because
+libavcodec.so is loaded into arbitrary host processes
+(firefox-fourier, mpv-fourier, daedalus_v4l2_daemon, ...) and we
+cannot assume the host has a usable Vulkan instance.  Higher cycles
+(deblock luma-v, MC) that benefit from the QPU will provision their
+own recipe-selected context once that path is wired.
+
+Bulk paths (idct_add16, idct_add16intra, idct_add8 — used for
+non-intra4x4 macroblocks) remain on the stock NEON .S implementations
+and will be batched through daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_idct4 with
+n_blocks>1 in a follow-up.
+
+Bit-exact against ff_h264_idct_add_neon (daedalus-fourier cycle 6
+green; see marfrit/daedalus-fourier/CYCLE_LOGS.md).

+H264DSPContext.idct8_add (called per 8x8 block from the High-profile

+
+The recipe layer picks the substrate; for cycle 7 (H.264 IDCT 8x8)

+column-major 8x8 storage block[r + 8*c] matches daedalus's convention.
+
+Bulk path c->idct8_add4 (used for inter 8x8-DCT macroblocks) remains

+daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_idct8 with n_blocks>1 in a follow-up.

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264dsp: route H.264 luma-v deblock through
+ daedalus-fourier
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+H264DSPContext.v_loop_filter_luma (non-intra bS<4 vertical luma
+deblock, called per macroblock-row edge from the slice deblock
+loop) now dispatches through
+daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_deblock_luma_v instead of
+ff_h264_v_loop_filter_luma_neon.
+
+The recipe layer picks the substrate; for cycle 8 the daedalus
+docstring marks the kernel "CPU primary; QPU opportunistic", but
+the libavcodec.so context here is built with
+daedalus_ctx_create_no_qpu — process-global pthread_once init,
+shared with cycles 6/7.  QPU opportunism stays gated off until a
+follow-up adds an explicit feature flag (no implicit Vulkan init
+in arbitrary host processes).  In the meantime cycle 8 is a
+plumbing-only substitution, NEON-to-NEON via the daedalus recipe.
+
+Intra (bS=4) loop filter — c->v_loop_filter_luma_intra — stays on
+the in-tree NEON .S code; daedalus's daedalus_h264_deblock_meta
+only covers the non-intra path per its docstring.
+
+FFmpeg `int alpha/beta/int8_t tc0[4]` → daedalus_h264_deblock_meta
+(int32_t alpha/beta + inline int8_t tc0[4]).  pix already points
+to row 0 of the bottom block per FFmpeg's deblock convention,
+satisfying daedalus's `dst_off >= 4 * dst_stride` constraint.
+
+Refs reauktion/daedalus-v4l2#11 — substitution arc step 2 cycle 8.

+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+FFmpeg 8.x dropped the H.264 decoder's low_delay path —
+AV_CODEC_FLAG_LOW_DELAY no longer prevents
+h264_select_output_frame from running the display-order DPB
+output queue.  V4L2-stateless-style consumers (daedalus-v4l2
+daemon, libva-v4l2-request-fourier) that set the flag end up
+seeing the 2-1-4-3 pair-swap pattern on B-frame streams again.
+
+Restore the documented semantics:
+
+  - Early-exit at the top of h264_select_output_frame when the
+    flag is set: emit the just-decoded picture immediately as
+    next_output_pic, mirror the corruption / recovery-point
+    tracking the main path performs, and skip the entire
+    delayed_pic[] / POC reorder machinery.
+
+  - Suppress the SPS-driven has_b_frames clobber in
+    h264_field_start when the flag is set, so the per-slice
+    bitstream_restriction_flag re-pickup cannot reintroduce a
+    nonzero reorder buffer mid-stream.
+
+This is a fork-only change required by the daedalus-v4l2 daemon's
+one-frame-per-send_packet contract; upstream FFmpeg consumers that
+expect display-order output remain untouched (flag default = off).
+
+Refs reauktion/daedalus-v4l2#11 — substitution arc step 2 deblock
++ flag-restoration follow-up.

+ daedalus-fourier
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+H264QpelContext.put_h264_qpel_pixels_tab[1][2] (8x8 luma horizontal
+half-pel, 6-tap "put" variant — the canonical representative of the
+H.264 luma motion-compensation family) now dispatches through
+daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_qpel_mc20 instead of
+ff_put_h264_qpel8_mc20_neon.
+
+Cycle 9 of the daedalus-v4l2#11 step 2 substitution arc; closes the
+4-cycle libavcodec.so substitution sequence (6 IDCT 4x4 / 7 IDCT 8x8 /
+8 luma-v deblock / 9 qpel mc20).
+
+The recipe layer picks the substrate. Per docs/k9_h264qpel_mc20.md
+the verdict is CPU NEON: per-block 7.6 ns at 131 Mblock/s gives 135x
+margin over 30 fps 1080p, and the QPU dispatch floor (~250 ns)
+makes any V3D shader strictly worse. Substitution is plumbing-only,
+NEON-by-recipe — same daedalus_ctx_create_no_qpu pthread_once
+context shape the cycles 6/7/8 shims already own (kept SEPARATE
+from the H264DSP shim's ctx because H264QPEL is its own libavcodec
+Makefile module and link order does not guarantee a single .o
+owns the ctx symbol; one extra ~µs init per process, paid lazily).
+
+Other H.264 luma MC variants (mc02, mc11, mc22 etc.) and the 16x16
+size tier stay on the in-tree NEON .S code. Per the cycle-9 phase-1
+rationale, mc20 8x8 is representative of the whole family's per-block
+cost — extending the substitution to other variants would multiply
+recipe-lookup overhead without changing the substrate verdict.
+
+Bit-exact against ff_put_h264_qpel8_mc20_neon (daedalus-fourier
+cycle 9 green; M1 = 100% bit-exact across 10000 random blocks).
+
+No SONAME change, no Depends change.

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264dsp: route H.264 luma-h deblock through daedalus-fourier
+
+Sibling of 0005 (which substituted v_loop_filter_luma).  Same
+NEON-to-NEON substitution: H264DSPContext.h_loop_filter_luma →
+daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_deblock_luma_h.  The H kernel landed
+in daedalus-fourier PR #9 (CPU NEON only — no QPU shader yet).
+
+libavcodec.so ctx is no-QPU per the existing 0003-0005 / 0007
+pattern; we cannot assume Vulkan in arbitrary host processes
+(firefox-fourier RDD, mpv-fourier, etc.).
+
+Intra (bS=4) h_loop_filter_luma_intra stays on the in-tree NEON .S
+code; daedalus_h264_deblock_meta only covers the non-intra path.
+An intra-h substitution can land once daedalus-fourier exposes a
+dispatch helper (the kernel already exists internally per PR #11).
+
+Refs reauktion/daedalus-v4l2#11 — substitution arc step 2 cycle 8 H.

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264dsp: route H.264 luma intra deblock through daedalus-fourier
+
+Adds the bS=4 intra-strength variants of the already-substituted
+luma_v / luma_h deblock (0005, 0008).  Intra MBs and certain
+inter-MB edges (4x4 transform boundaries inside an Intra_NxN
+neighbour) force boundary strength to 4 per H.264 §8.7.2.1.
+
+  H264DSPContext.v_loop_filter_luma_intra →
+    daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_deblock_luma_v_intra
+  H264DSPContext.h_loop_filter_luma_intra →
+    daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_deblock_luma_h_intra
+
+Both kernels landed in daedalus-fourier PR #11.  Recipe table
+routes AUTO to CPU NEON (no intra QPU shaders yet) — plumbing-
+only NEON-to-NEON via daedalus, bit-exact against the in-tree
+FFmpeg NEON path.
+
+Signature differs from bS<4: no tc0 argument.  The wrapper
+passes daedalus_h264_deblock_meta with alpha/beta set; tc0[] is
+ignored by the intra dispatch (bS=4 hardcodes the strength).

+Chroma intra variants are deferred to a follow-up PR because the
+chroma path has a 4:2:0 / 4:2:2 split (chroma_format_idc gating)
+that needs explicit conditional substitution to avoid running
+the 4:2:0-only daedalus dispatch on 4:2:2 chroma.

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264dsp: route H.264 chroma DC Hadamard through daedalus-fourier
+
+Substitutes H264DSPContext.chroma_dc_dequant_idct in the
+4:2:0 / bit_depth=8 init path with a wrapper that composes
+the daedalus chroma DC Hadamard primitive (fourier PR #25)
+with qmul scaling FFmpeg does in one fused function.
+
+Bit-exact against ff_h264_chroma_dc_dequant_idct_8_c.
+Hadamard correctness gated by fourier PR #23 test suite.
+
+4:2:2 chroma stays on the in-tree 422 variant (same
+gating shape as 0009 chroma deblock substitution).
+
+Requires daedalus-fourier commit b9f9ff2 or later (PR #25
+exposing the public Hadamard symbol).  Pin bumps in PKGBUILD
+and build-deb.sh come in the same commit.

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264qpel: route remaining qpel 8x8 positions through daedalus-fourier
+
+Closes the H.264 qpel substitution.  Extends 0007 (which routed only
+mc20 put_) to ALL 15 useful positions in BOTH the put_ and avg_
+tables, skipping mc00 (integer copy / pointer-only fast path).
+
+29 substitutions total: 14 new put_ + 15 avg_.  Each is a uniform
+wrapper around daedalus_recipe_dispatch_h264_qpel_{avg_,}mcXY exposed
+by daedalus-fourier PRs #15-#20.
+
+All recipe-table entries route AUTO to CPU NEON (no QPU shaders
+for any qpel position other than mc20 yet), so this is plumbing-only
+NEON-to-NEON — bit-exact against the in-tree ff_*_h264_qpel8_*_neon
+path.
+
+16x16 qpel tables ([0][...]) stay on the in-tree NEON.  daedalus
+only exposes 8x8 today; 16x16 substitution can land once fourier
+provides those variants (likely just dispatching the 8x8 path four
+times with shifted dst/src offsets).

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264dsp: route H.264 chroma intra deblock (4:2:0) through daedalus-fourier
+
+Substitutes c->v_loop_filter_chroma_intra and c->h_loop_filter_chroma_intra
+with daedalus wrappers in the bit_depth=8 / chroma_format_idc<=1 (4:2:0)
+branch.  4:2:2 stays on the in-tree NEON path (the daedalus chroma intra
+dispatch is 4:2:0-only).
+
+The fourier dispatches were exposed in PR #11 (DEFINE_INTRA_DISPATCH
+macro generates the public daedalus_dispatch_h264_deblock_chroma_*_intra
+symbols + recipe wrappers).
+
+Re-architects the chroma init: v_loop_filter_chroma_intra was previously
+assigned unconditionally to the NEON variant (which works for both 4:2:0
+and 4:2:2).  We now assign it INSIDE both branches of the chroma_format_idc
+conditional, with the 4:2:0 branch picking daedalus and the 4:2:2 branch
+keeping NEON.  No regression for 4:2:2 streams.
+
+Same NEON-to-NEON via recipe shape as 0010 luma intra.
+
+Refs reauktion/daedalus-v4l2#11 — substitution arc chroma intra.

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264: use QPU-capable daedalus ctx (bench
+ shows 4.30x faster on Pi 5)
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Patches 0003 (IDCT 4x4) and 0007 (qpel mc20) created the libavcodec.so
+process-global daedalus_ctx via daedalus_ctx_create_no_qpu().  Rationale
+at the time: cycle 6/9 had only CPU NEON paths, so a QPU-capable ctx
+would have meant pointless Vulkan init in every host process (firefox-
+fourier, mpv-fourier, daedalus_v4l2_daemon, ...).
+
+Two things changed since:
+
+  1. Every H.264 hot-path primitive now has a V3D7 compute shader.
+     IDCT 4x4/8x8 (cycles 6, 7), 8 deblock variants (luma+chroma x V+H
+     x inter+intra), 30 qpel positions (15 put_ + 15 avg_).  See
+     daedalus-fourier PRs #28-#35.
+
+  2. Dispatch overhead has been hammered down — buffer pool in
+     v3d_runner (daedalus-fourier task #160) plus persistent command
+     buffer (task #161).  daedalus-fourier PR #36 bench measures the
+     1080p worst-case sum on hertz (Pi 5 V3D 7.1, 30 iters x 5 warmup):
+
+       kernel             CPU ns/op  QPU ns/op  winner
+       IDCT 4x4 luma          10.79       2.47  QPU 4.36x
+       IDCT 8x8 luma          29.69       9.23  QPU 3.22x
+       Deblock luma_v         17.58      10.21  QPU 1.72x
+       Deblock luma_h         38.41       9.98  QPU 3.85x
+       qpel mc20 (8x8)        28.24       9.66  QPU 2.92x
+       qpel mc02 (8x8)        16.96      20.54  CPU 1.21x
+       qpel mc22 (8x8)        71.58       9.64  QPU 7.43x
+
+       1080p worst-case sum (IDCT4 + deblock luma + qpel mc22):
+         CPU NEON only:  5.57 ms
+         QPU only:       1.30 ms   (CPU/QPU sum ratio = 4.30x)
+
+PR #10's verdict (CPU 4x faster than QPU at IDCT) is reversed.  Switch
+the substitution context to daedalus_ctx_create() in both H.264 TUs
+(h264_idct_daedalus.c, h264_qpel_daedalus.c) so the recipe layer can
+actually route through the now-faster QPU path.
+
+daedalus_ctx_create() probes for a usable Vulkan device and falls back
+to no_qpu mode if unavailable, so this is safe on hosts without V3D
+(x86 reauktion build runners, debian-aarch64 builders without renderD,
+etc.).  Hosts WITH V3D (Pi 5 deployment targets) get the speedup.
+
+The remaining qpel mc02 anomaly (single-axis vertical filter, 1.21x
+CPU) is bench-flagged for a v2 shader follow-up; the recipe entry
+stays QPU since the policy decree (2026-05-23 substrate decree) holds
+and the gap is marginal.
+

+Subject: [PATCH] avcodec/aarch64/h264: revert ctx flip — daedalus-fourier PR
+ #36 was a measurement artifact
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Reverts the daedalus_ctx_create_no_qpu() → daedalus_ctx_create() flip
+that landed in 0014-h264-ctx-qpu-capable.patch (marfrit-packages PR
+#104).  The flip was justified by daedalus-fourier PR #36 which
+reported a 4.30x QPU-over-CPU win on the 1080p H.264 hot-path sum.
+
+That number was a measurement artifact.  The bench tool's
+v3d_runner.read_spv() did a bare fopen() that resolved relative to
+cwd; when run from the source directory (as in PR #36), the SPVs at
+$builddir/v3d_*.spv were not found, every QPU dispatch returned -1
+fast, and the loop timed the failure path.  Daedalus-fourier PR #37
+fixes the SPV search + bench preflight; corrected numbers from hertz
+(Pi 5 V3D 7.1) show QPU is 12-77x SLOWER than CPU NEON at every
+H.264 hot-path kernel:
+
+  kernel             CPU ns/op  QPU ns/op  winner
+  IDCT 4x4 luma          10.75     217.63  CPU 20.24x

+  qpel mc22 (8x8)        71.60    1948.37  CPU 27.21x
+
+  1080p sum: CPU 5.57 ms vs QPU 123.54 ms — QPU 22x slower.
+
+Until the daedalus QPU dispatch overhead is actually competitive (a
+multi-task effort tracked on the daedalus-fourier side), the
+libavcodec.so substitution must stay on daedalus_ctx_create_no_qpu()
+to avoid pessimizing every host process that loads it
+(firefox-fourier RDD, mpv-fourier, daedalus_v4l2_daemon).
+
+Both H.264 TUs (h264_idct_daedalus.c, h264_qpel_daedalus.c) are
+reverted; the change is a 2-line revert of patch 0014.

+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).

+From 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
+From: Markus Fritsche <mfritsche@reauktion.de>
+Date: Tue, 26 May 2026 07:30:00 +0200
+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).
+
+Refs reauktion/daedalus-decoder!14 (PR-A2 callback wiring).

+    8.x dropped the H.264 low_delay code path entirely; setting the
+    flag at avcodec_open2 no longer prevents the display-order DPB
+    output queue from running.  Visible on Firefox YouTube as the
+    2-1-4-3 B-frame pair-swap, re-introduced silently by the
+    SONAME 61→62 jump in daedalus-v4l2 PR #16.
+  * h264_select_output_frame: early-exit when LOW_DELAY is set;
+    emit the just-decoded picture as next_output_pic, mirror the
+    corruption / recovery-point tracking, skip delayed_pic[] and
+    the POC reorder machinery entirely.

+    has_b_frames = sps->num_reorder_frames clobber when LOW_DELAY
+    is set — without this the per-slice bitstream_restriction_flag
+    re-pickup would reintroduce a nonzero reorder buffer mid-

+    any_fd_supports_output_format's probe list in config.c so the
+    profile enumerator actually sees daedalus_v4l2's OUTPUT formats
+    (VP9F + AV1F + S264).  Before this commit, ffmpeg vaapi against

+    because RequestQueryConfigProfiles only walked rkvdec/hantro/
+    rpi-hevc-dec/vpu981 fds and never asked daedalus what it could do.
+  * Backward-compatible on RK3399/3588 — new slot gated by

+  * Rebuild on a native Debian trixie runner (actrunner-debian-aarch64-bohr) so
+    the driver picks up trixie's libva-dev (2.22) and exports
+    __vaDriverInit_1_22 — the symbol trixie's libva runtime looks up.
+    Previous -1 build used the Arch CI runner (libva 2.23.0) and
+    exported __vaDriverInit_1_23, which trixie's loader cannot bind:
+    vaInitialize() returns -1 ("has no function __vaDriverInit_1_0")
+    and ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi fails on startup.
+  * No source change; pure build-env fix.  CI workflow's
+    libva-v4l2-request-fourier-debian job moved from runs-on:
+    arch-aarch64 to runs-on: actrunner-debian-aarch64-bohr; build-deps installed
+    via apt-get instead of pacman.
+  * Hard sanity check kept in build-deb.sh: build fails if the
+    resulting .so doesn't export __vaDriverInit_1_22 (preempts the
+    silent install-then-refuse-to-load failure mode).
