This is an experiment to include a mv contribution from last frame to
nearest and near mv definition. Initial test showed some small though
consistent gain.
latest patch slightly better result ~.13%-~.18%.
TODO: the entropy used to encode the mode choice, i.e. the mv counts
based conditional distribution of modes should be re-collected to
reflect this change, it is expected that there is some further gain
from that.

Removal of CONFIGURE_SEGMENTATION ifdefs.
Removal of legacy support code fo the old coding mechanism.
Use local reference "xd" for MACROBLOCKD structure in
encode_frame_to_data_rate()
Moved call to choose_segmap_coding_method() out of encode
loop as the cost of segmentation is not properly accounted
in the loop anyway. If this is desirable in the future it
can be moved back. The use of this function to do all the
analysis and set the probabilities also removes the need
to track segment useage in threading code.

These changes fixes a glitch between the RTP profile and the input
partitions interface. Since there's no way for the user to know the
actual number of partitions, the decoder have to read the
multi_token_paritition bits also when input partitions mode is
enabled.
Included are also a couple of fixes for issues with independent
partitions and uninitialized memory reads.

When error concealment is enabled the first key frame must
be successfully received before error concealment is activated.
Error concealment will be activated when the delta following

With this commit frames can be received partition-by-partition
from the encoder and passed partition-by-partition to the
decoder.
At the encoder-side this makes it easier to split encoded
frames at partition boundaries, useful when packetizing
frames. When VPX_CODEC_USE_OUTPUT_PARTITION is enabled,
several VPX_CODEC_CX_FRAME_PKT packets will be returned
from vpx_codec_get_cx_data(), containing one partition
each. The partition_id (starting at 0) specifies the decoding
order of the partitions. All partitions but the last has
the VPX_FRAME_IS_FRAGMENT flag set.
At the decoder this opens up the possibility of decoding partition
N even though partition N-1 was lost (given that independent
partitioning has been enabled in the encoder) if more info
about the missing parts of the stream is available through
external signaling.
Each partition is passed to the decoder through the
vpx_codec_decode() function, with the data pointer pointing
to the start of the partition, and with data_sz equal to the
size of the partition. Missing partitions can be signaled to
the decoder by setting data != NULL and data_sz = 0. When
all partitions have been given to the decoder "end of data"
should be signaled by calling vpx_codec_decode() with
data = NULL and data_sz = 0.
The first partition is the first partition according to the
VP8 bitstream + the uncompressed data chunk + DCT address
offsets if multiple residual partitions are used.

The error-concealer is plugged in after any motion vectors have been
decoded. It tries to estimate any missing motion vectors from the
motion vectors of the previous frame. Intra blocks with missing
residual are replaced with inter blocks with estimated motion vectors.
This feature was developed in a separate sandbox
(sandbox/holmer/error-concealment).

A large number of functions were defined with external linkage, even
though they were only used from within one file. This patch changes
their linkage to static and removes the vp8_ prefix from their names,
which should make it more obvious to the reader that the function is
contained within the current translation unit. Functions that were
not referenced were removed.
These symbols were identified by:
$ nm -A libvpx.a | sort -k3 | uniq -c -f2 | grep ' [A-Z] ' \
| sort | grep '^ *1 '

A new vpx_codec_control called VP8D_GET_FRAME_CORRUPTED. The output
from the function is non-zero if the last decoded frame contains
corruption due to packet losses.
The decoder is also modified to accept encoded frames of zero length.
A zero length frame indicates to the decoder that one or more frames
have been completely lost. This will mark the last decoded reference
buffer as corrupted. The data pointer can be NULL if the length is
zero.

Commit 0ce3901 introduced a change in the frame buffer copy logic where
the NEW frame could be copied to the ARF or GF buffer through the
copy_buffer_to_{arf,gf}==1 flags, if the LAST frame was not being
refreshed. This is not correct. The intent of the
copy_buffer_to_{arf,gf}==1 flag is to copy the LAST buffer. To copy the
NEW buffer, the refresh_{alt_ref,golden}_frame flag should be used.
The original buffer copy logic is fairly convoluted. For example:
if (cm->refresh_last_frame)
{
vp8_swap_yv12_buffer(&cm->last_frame, &cm->new_frame);
cm->frame_to_show = &cm->last_frame;
}
else
{
cm->frame_to_show = &cm->new_frame;
}
...
if (cm->copy_buffer_to_arf)
{
if (cm->copy_buffer_to_arf == 1)
{
if (cm->refresh_last_frame)
vp8_yv12_copy_frame_ptr(&cm->new_frame, &cm->alt_ref_frame);
else
vp8_yv12_copy_frame_ptr(&cm->last_frame, &cm->alt_ref_frame);
}
else if (cm->copy_buffer_to_arf == 2)
vp8_yv12_copy_frame_ptr(&cm->golden_frame, &cm->alt_ref_frame);
}
Effectively, if refresh_last_frame, then new and last are swapped, so
when "new" is copied to ARF, it's equivalent to copying LAST to ARF. If
not refresh_last_frame, then LAST is copied to ARF. So LAST is copied to
ARF in both cases.
Commit 0ce3901 removed the first buffer swap but kept the
refresh_last_frame?new:last behavior, changing the sense since the first
swap wasn't done to the more readable refresh_last_frame?last:new, but
this logic is not correct when !refresh_last_frame.
This commit restores the correct behavior from v0.9.1 and prior. This
case is missing from the test vector set.

- Used three probability approach for temporal context as follows:
P0 - probability of no change if both above and left not changed
P1 - probability of no change if one of above and left has changed
P2 - probability of no change if both above and left have changed
In addition, a 1 bit/frame has been used to decide whether to use temporal context or to encode directly. The cost of using both the schemes is calculated ahead and the temporal_update flag is set if the cost of using temporal context is lower than encoding the segment ids directly.
This approach has given around 20% reduction in cost of bits needed to encode segmentation ids.

This eliminates a large set of warnings exposed by the Mozilla build
system (Use of C++ comments in ISO C90 source, commas at the end of
enum lists, a couple incomplete initializers, and signed/unsigned
comparisons).
It also eliminates many (but not all) of the warnings expose by newer
GCC versions and _FORTIFY_SOURCE (e.g., calling fread and fwrite
without checking the return values).
There are a few spurious warnings left on my system:
../vp8/encoder/encodemb.c:274:9: warning: 'sz' may be used
uninitialized in this function
gcc seems to be unable to figure out that the value shortcut doesn't
change between the two if blocks that test it here.
../vp8/encoder/onyx_if.c:5314:5: warning: comparison of unsigned
expression >= 0 is always true
../vp8/encoder/onyx_if.c:5319:5: warning: comparison of unsigned
expression >= 0 is always true
This is true, so far as it goes, but it's comparing against an enum, and the C
standard does not mandate that enums be unsigned, so the checks can't be
removed.

The primary goal is to allow a binary to be built which supports
NEON, but can fall back to non-NEON routines, since some Android
devices do not have NEON, even if they are otherwise ARMv7 (e.g.,
Tegra).
The configure-generated flags HAVE_ARMV7, etc., are used to decide
which versions of each function to build, and when
CONFIG_RUNTIME_CPU_DETECT is enabled, the correct version is chosen
at run time.
In order for this to work, the CFLAGS must be set to something
appropriate (e.g., without -mfpu=neon for ARMv7, and with
appropriate -march and -mcpu for even earlier configurations), or
the native C code will not be able to run.
The ASFLAGS must remain set for the most advanced instruction set
required at build time, since the ARM assembler will refuse to emit
them otherwise.
I have not attempted to make any changes to configure to do this
automatically.
Doing so will probably require the addition of new configure options.
Many of the hooks for RTCD on ARM were already there, but a lot of
the code had bit-rotted, and a good deal of the ARM-specific code
is not integrated into the RTCD structs at all.
I did not try to resolve the latter, merely to add the minimal amount
of protection around them to allow RTCD to work.
Those functions that were called based on an ifdef at the calling
site were expanded to check the RTCD flags at that site, but they
should be added to an RTCD struct somewhere in the future.
The functions invoked with global function pointers still are, but
these should be moved into an RTCD struct for thread safety (I
believe every platform currently supported has atomic pointer
stores, but this is not guaranteed).
The encoder's boolhuff functions did not even have _c and armv7
suffixes, and the correct version was resolved at link time.
The token packing functions did have appropriate suffixes, but the
version was selected with a define, with no associated RTCD struct.
However, for both of these, the only armv7 instruction they actually
used was rbit, and this was completely superfluous, so I reworked
them to avoid it.
The only non-ARMv4 instruction remaining in them is clz, which is
ARMv5 (not even ARMv5TE is required).
Considering that there are no ARM-specific configs which are not at
least ARMv5TE, I did not try to detect these at runtime, and simply
enable them for ARMv5 and above.
Finally, the NEON register saving code was completely non-reentrant,
since it saved the registers to a global, static variable.
I moved the storage for this onto the stack.
A single binary built with this code was tested on an ARM11 (ARMv6)
and a Cortex A8 (ARMv7 w/NEON), for both the encoder and decoder,
and produced identical output, while using the correct accelerated
functions on each.
I did not test on any earlier processors.

The code was not checking for frame sizes smaller than 3 bytes, and the
partition size checks might have failed if the input buffer was within
16MB of the top of the heap.
In addition, the reference count on the current frame buffer was not
being decremented on error, so after a small number of errors, no new
frame buffer could be found and it would run off the list of them.
