Follow-up to libva PR #7 (merged as 9898331). Without that commit,
H.264/VP9/AV1 profiles never got advertised on Pi 5 mixed deploys
(rpi-hevc-dec primary + daedalus_v4l2 alt) because the profile-
enumeration probe in any_fd_supports_output_format only walked
rkvdec / hantro / rpi-hevc-dec / vpu981 fds. ffmpeg vaapi -i
h264_test.mp4 on higgs bailed with "No support for codec h264
profile 578" before the LIBVA-1 per-codec dispatch could even fire.
9898331 extends the fds[] from 5 to 6 with video_fd_daedalus as
the 6th slot (HAVE_DAEDALUS_V4L2-gated, -1 fallback otherwise).
Effect on higgs once this lands: vainfo lists VP9Profile0 +
AV1Profile0 + H264* alongside HEVCMain, and ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi
-i h264_test.mp4 routes through the daedalus daemon (via 'd' kind
in request_switch_device_for_profile).
Both packages: pkgver 1.0.0.r380.9898331 (count from rev-list),
pkgrel reset to 1 (new upstream pin). Backward-compatible on
RK3399/3588 — the new fd slot is gated by HAVE_DAEDALUS_V4L2 *and*
video_fd_daedalus >= 0, both false in those deployments.
Companion to the prior LIBVA-{1,ABI} bumps that landed in marfrit-
packages PRs #43, #44. Together they close the Pi 5 stack: boot ->
modules-load.d loads daedalus_v4l2 -> daedalus-v4l2.service starts
daemon -> libva opens both decoders -> ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi
enumerates all codecs from both -> routes per-codec.

Closes task #134 work.
PR #44 showed the cross-distro ABI hazard for `libva-v4l2-request-fourier-debian`: building on Arch (libva 2.23) produced `__vaDriverInit_1_23`, which trixies libva 2.22 runtime cant bind. Same hazard applies to other fourier-debian jobs that link against debian-native libs.
**Moved from runs-on: arch-aarch64 → debian-aarch64:**
- ffmpeg-v4l2-request-debian
- mpv-fourier-debian
- daedalus-v4l2-debian
- daedalus-v4l2-dkms-debian
**Left alone (arch=all, no native compile against debian libs):**
- lmcp-debian
- claude-his-debian
Depends on PR #46 (label vs name fix) being merged so `debian-aarch64` actually routes to bohr.
Reviewed-on: #47
Two follow-ups to PR #44 (which landed the libva-dev ABI pin):
- `051da5e` switch runs-on from arch-aarch64 → debian-aarch64-bohr
- `5feab57` fix runner label: actrunner-debian-aarch64-bohr (label name mismatch in 051da5e)
**Squash on merge** to keep main history clean.

Per @marfrit on PR #44 review: a native Debian trixie aarch64 runner
(debian-aarch64-bohr) is available — use it instead of the sysroot
hack from the previous commit.
The sysroot approach worked but was a workaround for not having the
right runner. Native trixie runner is much cleaner:
- libva-dev installs via apt-get directly from trixie's archive
(2.22.0-3) — pkg-config returns trixie headers, driver compiles
in __vaDriverInit_1_22 naturally.
- No need to symlink libva.so.2 -> libva.so or rewrite .pc prefixes.
- No bsdtar/ar/dpkg-deb juggling on an Arch runner that doesn't
natively have dpkg.
Changes from PR v1:
- .gitea/workflows/build.yml: libva-v4l2-request-fourier-debian
runs-on: debian-aarch64-bohr (was arch-aarch64). Build-deps
installed via apt-get instead of pacman -Syu.
- build-deb.sh: drop the sysroot download / pkgconfig rewrite /
symlink block. Keep the post-build ABI sanity check (nm -D |
grep __vaDriverInit_1_22) — same defensive role as before, with
an updated error message that points to the expected runner.
- debian/.../changelog: -2 entry rewritten to describe the runner
move instead of the sysroot.
Tested approach on boltzmann (aarch64): meson build against trixie
sysroot produces __vaDriverInit_1_22 (proves the source compiles
correctly with VA-API 1.22 headers). Native runner build will
follow the same path, just without the explicit sysroot setup.

The libva-v4l2-request-fourier .deb shipped with the wrong VA-API
symbol export because the CI runner is Arch (libva 2.23 = VA-API
1.23) while the install target is Debian trixie (libva 2.22 = VA-API
1.22). At compile time, <va/va.h>'s VA_MAJOR/VA_MINOR macros are
baked into the driver's __vaDriverInit_<MAJOR>_<MINOR> symbol name.
trixie's libva runtime looks up __vaDriverInit_1_22, our driver only
exported __vaDriverInit_1_23, so dlsym() returned NULL and libva
fell back to its sentinel error "has no function __vaDriverInit_1_0".
Result: ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi fails on startup, vainfo fails the
same way, on every Pi 5 / CM5 that installed the package.
The driver itself doesn't link libva.so (no NEEDED entry — confirmed
via readelf on higgs), so the only thing that matters is the symbol
NAME the compiler bakes in. Fix is small: in build-deb.sh, download
trixie's libva-dev / libva2 / libva-drm2 .deb from deb.debian.org,
extract to a sysroot, rewrite the .pc prefixes, and set
PKG_CONFIG_PATH so pkg-config returns trixie headers regardless of
what the runner has installed. The link step still resolves -lva
against the sysroot's libva.so.2, but the resulting .so has no
NEEDED entry for it.
Added a hard sanity check at the end of build-deb.sh: fail the build
if the produced .so doesn't export __vaDriverInit_1_22. This makes
future ABI-skew failures loud at CI time instead of silent install-
then-refuse-to-load on the target.
Tested on boltzmann (aarch64): sysroot build produces a .so exporting
__vaDriverInit_1_22 (verified via nm -D). Source unchanged from
c332d34; only the build env differs.
pkgver/upstream unchanged. PKGREL bumped 1 -> 2 (rebuild against
pinned trixie libva-dev) so apt picks up the new .deb on higgs.
This is the LIBVA-2 unblocker — the runtime-libva-bind failure was
masking whether the LIBVA-1 per-codec dispatch actually works on
higgs. Once -2 lands on packages.reauktion.de, apt upgrade on higgs
and the daedalus daemon log + rpi-hevc-dec dispatch can be validated
end-to-end.

Bumps both Arch (PKGBUILD) and Debian (build-deb.sh + changelog)
pins to upstream c332d34 — the merged LIBVA-1 PR.
Effect: Pi 5 / CM5 mixed deployment (higgs) now opens BOTH
rpi-hevc-dec and daedalus_v4l2 from one libva session and routes
per-codec — HEVC to rpi-hevc-dec ('p'), VP9 / AV1 / H.264 to the
daedalus daemon (new 'd' kind). Before c332d34, find_codec_device
picked rpi-hevc-dec by known_decoder_drivers[] order and the
daedalus slot stayed -1, so VP9/AV1/H.264 frames failed S_FMT.
Also closes a small fd leak in RequestTerminate (daedalus pair —
caught while reviewing the alt-driver expansion).
Both packages: pkgver bumped 1.0.0.r378.c332d34, pkgrel reset to 1
(new upstream pin). Backward-compatible on RK3399/3588 — new
branches gated by HAVE_DAEDALUS_V4L2 *and* video_fd_daedalus >= 0,
both false in those deployments.
Companion: daedalus-v4l2{,-dkms} bump 481279c landed in PR #39
(systemd unit + auto-enable). Together they close the Pi 5 stack:
boot → modules-load.d loads daedalus_v4l2 → daedalus-v4l2.service
starts daemon → libva opens both decoders → ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi
routes by codec.

Mirror of arch/libva-v4l2-request-fourier into the Debian tree.
Same pin (de27e95), same build (meson + ninja), output as
arm64 .deb installing the VA-API ICD as
/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/dri/v4l2_request_drv_video.so.
Auto-detected by VAAPI consumers (ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi, mpv
--hwdec=vaapi, Firefox VAAPI accel) when
LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=v4l2_request is set.
build-deb.sh follows the lmcp pattern: reproducible build with
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH pin; standalone dpkg-deb so it runs on a
non-Debian builder without dh/debhelper.
