28.5. Scaler IP Software API

The IP includes software for run-time control. The IP does not fit any of the generic device models provided by the Nios II HAL and it exposes a set of dedicated accessors to the control and status registers. The IP driver structure inherits the base driver structure so all common methods defined in Video and Vision Processing IPs Software API are applicable.

Register definition header file: intel_vvp_scaler_regs.h

Include file: intel_vvp_scaler.h

extended_fill – if vertical split extension is enabled

Returns

kIntelVvpCoreOk for success, negative error code in case of failures

kIntelVvpCoreInstanceErr if the instance is invalid or not configured for split vertical scaling

Description

This function sets the scaler for split horizontal scaling. Specify the full width of the input image, the full width of the desired output image and the required offset/width of the output split to set up the scaler to generate the given output band. Optionally, the function returns the offset and width of the corresponding band in the input image. This should be used to configure the upstream video processing pipeline and stream the correct video portion into the scaler. This call does not update the input width image info register in Lite mode. intel_vvp_core_set_img_info_width should still be called, presumably using the split_input_width value returned here as a parameter.

Arguments

instance – pointer to the intel_vvp_scaler_instance software driver instance structure

total_input_width – new width of the full input image

total_output_width – new width of the full output image

split_output_width – width of the scaled split (at the output)

split_output_left_offset – left offset of the scaled split (at the output)

extended_fill – if the input split should contain extra columns of pixels on the left and/or right to ensure the output splits can be stitched with a joint that is not noticeable

split_input_width – the recommended width for the input split. The value is computed and returned by this call (optional, may be NULL)

split_input_left_offset – the recommended left offset for the input split respective to the full input image. The value is computed and returned by this call (optional, may be NULL)

Returns

kIntelVvpCoreOk for success, negative error code in case of failures

kIntelVvpCoreInstanceErr if the instance is invalid or not configured for split horizontal scaling

kIntelVvpScalerParameterErr, if one of the dimensions is invalid or if the split output width is larger than allowed by the configuration.

kIntelVvpScalerParameterErr, if the width and left offset of the output split go out-of-range compared to the total output width

kIntelVvpScalerParameterErr, if the split_input_width value computed during the call is larger than allowed by the configuration. Note that this value is computed last and the scaler is still reprogrammed in this case.
