+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)
+  - future daedalus-v4l2 daemon refactor
+
+Refs reauktion/daedalus-decoder!12 (Stage 2 PR-b complete).
