When the format change, the VAAPI context cannot be destroyed.
Otherwise, the reference frame surface will lost.

This change feels just wrong. First of all, preprocessors are
absolutely the wrong way to go about this.
Secondly, if the frames need to change size, or surface format, then
this absolutely needs to be called, doesn't it?

Sorry for this. I am new guy for ffmpeg development. What way should be

better? I can refine it.

Based on VP9 spec, the frame resolution can be changed per frame. But 
current

frame will need refer to previous frame still. So if destroy the VAAPI 
context, it

will cause reference frame surface in VAAPI driver lost.

In fact, this patch is for the issue:

https://github.com/intel/media-driver/issues/629

its 2nd frame (128x128) will refer to the 1st frame (256x256).

Thanks.

This may work if the frame size decreases, but what if it increases?
Then the frame buffers in the pool are too small, and anything could
go wrong.
This won't be an easy issue to solve, and needs very careful design.

Agree. I should add [RFC] for this patch.

I can investigate frame buffer management of ffmpeg and submit new patch 
for covering this situation.

Thanks for comments.

Can you explain exactly what is going wrong here?  The surface is definitely still present - the reference frame list entry holds a reference to it.

IMHO,

for one VP9 clips with dynamic resolution changing which is legal based 
on VP9 spec.

After the 1st frame (256x256) is decoded with vaapi-hw acceleration, 
ffmpeg will parse and decode the frame header of the 2nd frame (128x128).

It will call update_size() when ffmpeg finds the resolution is changed 
and destroy/recreate vaapi-hw context which will also destroy and 
release the previous decoded 1st frame (256x256) saved in driver. The 
saved 1st frame surface should be as reference frame normally.

So when ffmpeg ask vaapi-hw to decode the 2nd frame, it cannot find the 
the 1st frame surface as reference frame and has to use dummy reference 
frame although the reference frame index is right.

I am newbie for ffmpeg code. I am studying ffmpeg related code and hope 
to compare libvpx path for looking for a better solution.

Thanks.
