libimxvpuapi: add new package This is a library for using the i.MX6 VPU. It is an alternative to libfslvpuwrap, hosted on Github, and has an API that features several improvements over libfslvpuwrap, which include: * User-defined context information associated with input frames, which is passed on to corresponding output frames (to be able to identify which input frame produced which output frame) * Groundwork for future DMA-BUF/BMM/ION/CMA allocator integration, using file descriptors instead of physical addresses * Indicators for when it is safe to try to decode frames, which is critical in multi-threaded playback cases * Simplified, higher-level JPEG en/decoding API, based on the VPU MJPEG codec; useful for picture viewing without the extra boilerplate for VPU-based en/decoding Changelog 0.10.0 -> 0.10.1: - add debian packaging files - update waf to version 1.8.16 - add workaround in wscript to prevent stale pkg-config .pc files - fix memory leak by adding missing IOFreeVirtMem() call in vpulib backend This patch is based on the Yocto equivalent: https://github.com/Freescale/meta-fsl-arm/commit/e519d6c https://github.com/Freescale/meta-fsl-arm/commit/1dd6a5b This package has been implicitely tested through gstreamer as the plugins rely on it for vpu decoding: # gst-launch-1.0 playbin uri=file:///root/tears_of_steel_1080p.webm Tested-by: Peter Seiderer <ps.report@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: Gary Bisson <gary.bisson@boundarydevices.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>

This library provides an API for using the iMX6 VPU video
engine. It is an alternative to Freescale's VPU
wrapper. Both the wrapper and this library are layered on
top of imx-vpu, the low-level iMX6 VPU interface.
