Hi all.
This is a proposal to enable versioning of the stateless uAPIs so as to allow multiple versions to coexist in the kernel. It was initially suggested by Ezequiel Garcia.
The problem:
Without any form of versioning in place, utmost care must be taken before merging uAPI code, since it is considered final and "set in stone". This naturally slows down progress of uAPI development as we expect each codec uAPI to be more or less perfect before merging it. Arguably, this is an unrealistic expectation and VP9, for instance, had to be substantially reworked as of the introduction of V4L2_STATELESS_CID_COMPRESSED_HDR.
The proposed solution:
This patch attempts to address the problem by introducing a menu control to query/get/set API version. Once the API version is set, the core/driver will use the set of corresponding structs. You can see how this looks like with one of the simplest codecs we support, i.e. MPEG2.
A driver can specify what versions of the uAPI it can work with by means of its try_ctrl() hook if the standard min/max validation for menu controls is not enough. It is then shown how this can work with Hantro G1, but note that V2 is simply a copy of V1 in this example.
I have also worked on an tentative userspace implementation using gstreamer[0]. A user can then select which version of the uAPI she wants to use by means of a property, which case the application will try to validate the chosen version first.
There are four outcomes possible when negotiating the version to be used:
a) If the VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS ioctl for the version menu control fails, we assume that the driver does not support versioning and we default to v1.
b) If the VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS ioctl for the version menu control succeeds, we store the default value as reported by the driver.
c) We attempt to set the version the user passed in, if that does not match the default, and if that fails,
d) We check if we support the default as returned by the driver, and if not, we error out.
Pros:
This approach can be used on top of the existing controls, i.e. it can be used to extend drivers and still support old kernels backwards. If the control V4L2_CID_STATELESS_{}_VERSION is not present on a given driver, applications can safely assume the first API version is the only supported. The version suffix (i.e. _v1) on structs is not needed as it is assumed that no suffix effectively means v1.
uAPI development can be streamlined as developers will know these can further be extended in the future if some hardware is incompatible with the current versions.
Design mistakes will not be catastrophic, instead they can be elegantly solved in a newer version.
Version negotiation is easy from a userspace perspective, applications can indicate a preference for the version number.
Drops the use of "reserved" for future APIs.
If the number of versions is kept to a minimum (i.e. v2, v3, at most v4) then it is very tractable.
Cons:
Applications will need to support different versions as they come out. The version applies to the entire API, not control-wise. In a sense, under this design, some repetition is the price to pay for tidiness. This approach is less-ambiguous and therefore less error-prone.
Closing thoughts:
This is only a draft, but I hope this design is enough to kickstart some discussion around this topic.

> This approach can be used on top of the existing controls, i.e. it can be used to extend drivers and still support old kernels backwards. If the control V4L2_CID_STATELESS_{}_VERSION is not present on a given driver, applications can safely assume the first API version is the only supported. The version suffix (i.e. _v1) on structs is not needed as it is assumed that no suffix effectively means v1.

In addition to Daniel's excellent introduction, I'd like to point out that as
direct consequences of this versioning mechanism we would be able to
mark HEVC as stable (perhaps after addressing known issues) and
therefore move Hantro and Cedrus out of staging.
Other codecs, such as AV1, would also have a path to land as stable
controls, allowing us to offer a solution to vendors with much more
reasonable timelines.
So even if we don't go with this exact approach, an approach that meets
this same goals, would have a huge impact.

If there's some consensus on the proposal, we'd need to incorporate
the versioning into the Stateless Decoder specification, and make
sure there are enough documentation for driver authors and application
developers.
Thanks!

This naturally slows down progress of uAPI development as we expect each codec uAPI to be more or less perfect before merging it.

I assume that by "the entire API" you mean for example "the entire H.264 API"
or "the entire VP9 API" rather than "the entire V4L2 API"? What is the benefit
of, say, "per-codec" API versioning vs "per-control" API versioning?

I'd definitely want something like this.
