MpiPacket and MpiFrame is the stream I/O data structure. And MpiBuffer encapsulates different buffer implement like Linux's dma-buf and Android's ion. This part is learned from ff.

Video stream will first queued by MPI/MPP layer, MPP will send the stream to codec layer, codec layer parses the stream header and generates a protocol standard output. This output will be send to HAL to generate register file set and communicate with hardware. Hardware will complete the task and resend information back. MPP notify codec by hardware result, codec output decoded frame by display order.

There are three memory usage modes that decoder can support:
In the mode user will NOT call MPP_DEC_SET_EXT_BUF_GROUP control to decoder.
Only call MPP_DEC_SET_INFO_CHANGE_READY to let decoder go on. Then decoder will
use create buffer internally and user need to release each frame they get.
Advantage:
Disadvantage:
This is the mode current mpi_dec_test code using. User need to create MppBufferGroup
according to the returned info change MppFrame. User can use mpp_buffer_group_limit_config
to limit decoder memory usage.
Advantage:
MppBufferGroup after decoder is closed. So memory can stay longer safely.mpp_buffer_group_limit_configDisadvantage:
In this mode use need to create empty MppBufferGroup and import memory from external
allocator by file handle. On Android surfaceflinger will create buffer. Then mediaserver
get file handle from surfaceflinger and commit to decoder's MppBufferGroup.
Advantage:
Disadvantage:
hor_stride * ver_stride * 3 / 2 for pixel datahor_stride * ver_stride / 2 for extra infohor_stride * ver_stride * 2 will be enough.For H.264/H.265: 20+ buffers will be enough. For other codec: 10 buffers will be enough.
