I haven't been able to figure out how you got there.
I don't really do anything special. Since the architecture of the devices I use is quite up-to-date, development for their support is also at the bleeding edge. It is therefore also of essential importance to use the latest software releases. My chosen distribution provides me with this quite promptly. But that's where it ends. I receive no support at all for using my devices there. She doesn't even provide me with firmware for my devices to start the system.
The kernel provided by my distribution is only the one based on the currently released mainline source code. So if I want to use functionalities whose development is still in progress, I have to build the kernel myself with the appropriate patches, which I do regularly (E.g., I'm just building one so I can play around with RGA3).
I haven't done much work in user space for a long time, but recently I've been building the FFmpeg package myself again since the availability of RKVDEC2. v4l-request works out-of-the-box with the GStreamer framework, but for FFmpeg, it will probably take some time until support is available in a release version.OK, the kernel is done. Now I have to deal with another video device:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Dec 7 22:44 platform-fdb50000.video-codec-video-index0 -> ../../video3 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Dec 7 22:44 platform-fdb60000.rga-video-index0 -> ../../video2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Dec 7 22:44 platform-fdb80000.rga-video-index0 -> ../../video0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Dec 7 22:44 platform-fdba0000.video-codec-video-index0 -> ../../video4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Dec 7 22:44 platform-fdc38100.video-codec-video-index0 -> ../../video1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Dec 7 22:44 platform-fdc70000.video-codec-video-index0 -> ../../video5 -
FWIW, on my rk3588 devices the NPUs are working with recent mainline releases:

Spoiler#!/bin/bash WORKBENCH="."

And therefore no NPU support.classification-3.11-tflite.logclassification-3.13-litert.logobject_detection-3.12-litert.log

Yeap. One fixes topology and the other pcie performance.
It works for me without the DT fix as well, but PCIe doesn't work for me at all, even with the referenced patch.
But I suppose it's because the device discussed in this thread doesn't have any PCIe hardware support at all. -

May I ask where to retrieve `idbloader.img`?
`idbloader.img` is device-specific code that is created from firmware build artifacts with U-Boot as payload using proprietary tools available only in binary form.
SBC providers rarely offer ready-to-use code.
I therefore prefer to load my firmware from microSD cards.
Since it has apparently become increasingly common lately to provide only the MASKROM mode as the sole reliable recovery method, I have started building my firmware for Rockchip devices as RAM images as well. I can then simply upload them using MASKROM mode and start my work from there without having to rely on proprietary, binary-only tools. -

Right, I always use the same system with all my devices. Makes comparisons more meaningful. Only the loaded DT is the only difference.

i am not trying to backport it.
Official development for inclusion in upstream are carried out by working on the project's main branch.
That's exactly what this pull request branch does by tracking the project's master tree.
Applying commits to anything else is backporting.2 hours ago, robertoj said:I want to make it work in trixie.
Backporting is possible, but you will have to deal with the consequences yourself that arise from your outdated versions lacking the functions required for your backport, and you may need to backport those as well.
Since this project is a user program and not a framework with libraries that other programs depend on, it is solely the user who has to deal with it as a dependency in its use.
At first, I also tried to use the sources of the current release version as a base, but since the commits couldn't be applied without errors, I simply built the current master branch.
For the FFMPEG framework, this is already a whole different ballgame. There are many programs, which mpv is just one, that depend on the libraries and need to be rebuilt accordingly in case of an upgrade.
Since my chosen distribution recently released ffmpeg 8.0 and thus made all dependent programs available accordingly, I just had to rebuild the ffmpeg package with the v4l2request support commits and put that in place. And since the commits could be applied to the current release sources without any errors, I didn't even need to switch to the master branch. -

Just out of curiosity, why are you trying to backport the v4l2request support?

FWIW, HEVC support is queued for 6.19.
With WIP patches on top, rkvdec2 is also available to me. With the gstreamer framework, this works for me out-of-the-box, as the necessary support has been available in mainline for quite some time. See video-pipeline.pdffor reference.
I have already rebuilt the Huffman package with the patches mentioned above, but currently the developers of the distribution of my choice are busy rebuilding all packages that depend on it. As soon as the Huffman package is rolled out, I will start to see how HEVC performs with the FFMPEG framework.

That's not really possible either. The only thing that is possible is using my kernel build in Armbian environment to see how it is performing for you. With my jumpstart image, this is actually quite easy to implement.
For this, both root filesystems just need to be mounted and
extlinux/prepare-jump-start ${target-rootfs-mount-point}needs to be executed in the jumpstart rootfs.
If the target system is now being booted with firmware that uses mainline U-Boot as the payload, nothing stands in the way of booting with my kernel.
And don't worry, prepare-jump-start only adds files to the target rootfs. Nothing will be overwritten or deleted.
If you want to give it a whirl, speak up and I will upload a current image.
But you will be disappointed, because the stock kernel only provides the functionalities available with the officially released kernel. Both Armbian and my kernel build have already applied patches that may appear in a future official release.
I doubt that you will succeed, because even the fedora organization only does a full rebuild once per release cycle. There is no advantage in rebuilding a component unmodified that leads to the same result as the package already provided. It only makes sense to do this when branching off the release version in order to create a synchronized basis for further development.
Only modified packages will be replaced or upgraded. My weekly upgrade gives me several gigabytes of new packages each time because I'm on Rawhide. Somehow, I can no longer manage to stick to any official release versions.
