Something like this?

Generally makes sense, however there is one concern if I got it correctly:

If a codec is not supported by VAAPI in current libavcodec build, ff_get_format()
would not select VAAPI as the HW acceleration. 
Instead, it would fallback to the native software decoding path, and won't trigger
the (!found_codec) logic.

./configure --enable-vaapi --disable-hwaccel=hevc_vaapi

$ ffmpeg -v debug -hwaccel vaapi -i ./hevc_rext_decode/Main_422_10_A_RExt_Sony_2.bin -f null -

Log:
[hevc @ 0x5592f7b0fec0] Format yuv422p10le chosen by get_format().

VAAPI error return would not be triggered.

Yeah, it's not covering that case because of how get_format() works - the caller can't choose the VAAPI format, so we never get here.  If the caller really wanted VAAPI then they need to deal with it externally (for ffmpeg, you want something like the proposed -decode_format option: <https://lists.ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2018-November/236205.html>).

The case where the "no codec" message is triggered is when you can pick it (the hwaccel is enabled) but the build still doesn't have the codec in the table (for example if it were built against older libva headers).

Yep, got the point and looks reasonable, thanks for elaboration.
