This VA backend uses v4l2's Frame API proposal to interface with the "sunxi-cedrus" video driver on Allwinner SoC. Only a few parts of the code are really dependent on sunxi-cedrus and this VA backend could be reused for other v4l drivers using the Frame API.
Sunxi Cedrus VA backend
This libVA video driver is designed to work with the v4l2 "sunxi-cedrus" kernel driver. However, the only sunxi-cedrus specific part is the format conversion from tiled to planar, otherwise it would be generic enough to be used with other v4l2 drivers using the "Frame API".
You can try this driver with VLC but don't forget to tell libVA to use this backend:
export LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=sunxi_cedrus
