[PATCH] media: v4l2-ctrls: Fix H264 SEPARATE_COLOUR_PLANE check
Posted by James Cowgill 6 months, 2 weeks ago
The `separate_colour_plane_flag` element is only present in the SPS if
`chroma_format_idc == 3`, so the corresponding flag should be disabled
whenever that is not the case and not just on profiles where
`chroma_format_idc` is not present.

The fix seems correct indeed. This has no incidence on any current driver, since
there is nothing upstream that supports decoding 4:4:4. Would you mind if we
extend the commit with something such as:

	This prevents invalid flags being passed, though no upstream drivers
	currently supports YCbCr 4:4:4 decoding.

Feel free to to suggest a better edit. It will make stable people (and bot) aware
of the patch priority. I can make the edit while applying.

regards,
Nicolas

That wording seems fine to me.

And yes this patch was just based on me reading the code - it doesn't
fix any actual breakage (at least for now).

Thanks,
James
