13// Internal implementation details
15//
16// There are two levels of interfaces used to access the AOM codec: the
17// aom_codec_iface and the aom_codec_ctx.
18//
19// 1. aom_codec_iface_t
20// (Related files: aom/aom_codec.h, aom/src/aom_codec.c,
21// aom/internal/aom_codec_internal.h, av1/av1_cx_iface.c,
22// av1/av1_dx_iface.c)
23//
24// Used to initialize the codec context, which contains the configuration for
25// for modifying the encoder/decoder during run-time. See the other
26// documentation in this header file for more details. For the most part,
27// users will call helper functions, such as aom_codec_iface_name,
28// aom_codec_get_caps, etc., to interact with it.
29//
30// The main purpose of the aom_codec_iface_t is to provide a way to generate
31// a default codec config, find out what capabilities the implementation has,
32// and create an aom_codec_ctx_t (which is actually used to interact with the
33// codec).
34//
35// Note that the implementations for the AV1 algorithm are located in
36// av1/av1_cx_iface.c and av1/av1_dx_iface.c
37//
38//
39// 2. aom_codec_ctx_t
40// (Related files: aom/aom_codec.h, av1/av1_cx_iface.c, av1/av1_dx_iface.c,
41// aom/aomcx.h, aom/aomdx.h, aom/src/aom_encoder.c, aom/src/aom_decoder.c)
42//
43// The actual interface between user code and the codec. It stores the name
44// of the codec, a pointer back to the aom_codec_iface_t that initialized it,
45// initialization flags, a config for either encoder or the decoder, and a
46// pointer to internal data.
47//
48// The codec is configured / queried through calls to aom_codec_control,
49// which takes a control ID (listed in aomcx.h and aomdx.h) and a parameter.
50// In the case of "getter" control IDs, the parameter is modified to have
51// the requested value; in the case of "setter" control IDs, the codec's
52// configuration is changed based on the parameter. Note that a aom_codec_err_t
53// is returned, which indicates if the operation was successful or not.
54//
55// Note that for the encoder, the aom_codec_alg_priv_t points to the
56// the aom_codec_alg_priv structure in av1/av1_cx_iface.c, and for the decoder,
57// the struct in av1/av1_dx_iface.c. Variables such as AV1_COMP cpi are stored
58// here and also used in the core algorithm.
59//
60// At the end, aom_codec_destroy should be called for each initialized
61// aom_codec_ctx_t.
