The feature undergoes prior assumption that the recursive partition
size search from 4x4 to 64x64, hence utilizing information from small
blocks to determine early termination in large block rate-distortion
optimization search. The current codebase is now going from top down.
The previous function might go with not properly initialized values,
hence removed.
Tested on pedestrian_area_1080p at 4000 kbps running under speed 2.
No visible difference in runtime observed.

This patch sets frame types correctly in the new
vp9_get_second_pass_params() function called prior
to encode_frame_to_data_rate() function, so that the
latter function can just work with what is passed to
it. This will allow multiple vp9_get_second_pass_params()
to be created for various encode strategies without
messing with the core encode function.
There is no difference in derf and yt. stdhd/hd are pending.

Adding RefBuffer to simplify reference buffer management. The struct has a

Moving back to scale_factors struct. We don't need anymore x_offset_q4 and

Various cleanups and streamlining of interfaces as precursor

lf deltas are later setup in function vp9_setup_past_independence(),

Various cleanups and refactoring.
Removes feedback of active worst qaulity and uses last_q
instead to make the interface cleaner. Active worst quality
is now decided only once for a frame being coded in the
beginning based on last_q and other stats. Also, adds other
cleaups on last_q to store also the last_q for altref frames,
and reduces the altref interval a little.
The output does change a little.

Increased threshold(t) for interp filter search. This sped up the
encoder with some PSNR loss.
Borg tests were ran at speed 2.

This commit enables an adaptive prediction filter type selection
for sub8x8 block sizes. In speed 1, it re-uses the filter type of
collocated 8x8 block if it is tested in the rate-distortion optimization
loop, for the sub8x8 blocks. Otherwise, it runs the normal test
over all the three filter types. In speed 2, it re-uses the 8x8
block's prediction filter type, if available. Otherwise, force it
to be EIGHTTAP.
Compression and speed performance wise:

derf -0.266%
yt -0.138%

Add a full range motion search for regular block sizes. This runs
exhaustive search within the given reference area. This commit further
optimizes the search process by combining 4 points test into one
pipeline, which gives 30% speed-up as compared to run each individual
point at a time.
This full range search serves as a best possible motion search reference.
When replacing the diamond search with full range search, the speed 0
runtime of bus CIF at 2000 kbps goes from 153872ms to 623051ms. The
compression performance compared to speed 0 setting gains 0.585% for
derf set.

Includes various cleanups.
Streamlines the interfaces so that all rate control state
updates happen in the vp9_rc_postencode_update() function.
This will hopefully make it easier to support multiple
rate control schemes.
Removes some unnecessary code, which in rare cases can casue
a difference in the constrained quality mode output, but
other than that there is no bitstream change yet.

This commit fixes the intra prediction reference source selection
in the settings of skip_encode. Use original boundary pixels as
prediction reference, when the inverse transform and reconstruction

When calling check_initial_width through vp9_set_size_literal

This patch changes the default to assume sampled chroma as

This commit takes out vp9_extend_frame_borders from
vp9_setup_scale_factors.
The refactoring is for the preparation of the use of lazy border
extension at decoder. This makes it necessary to handle border
extension separately at encoder/decoder. The use of
vp9_extend_frame_borders will be removed, when lazy border extension
is ready.

Implements scan order to band map with arrays in both the encoder

This commit enables the dual buffer rate-distortion optimization
and encoding scheme. It stacks the original transform coefficients,
quantized levels, and reconstructed coefficients, in the rate-
distortion optimization search process, hence eliminates the need
to re-run residual generation, forward transform, and quantization
in the encoding stage.

Allocate memory space of dual buffer sets that store the coeff, qcoeff,

Make the macroblockd_plane contain dynamic buffer pointers instead
static pointers to the memory space allocated therein. The decoder
uses the buffer allocated in pbi, while encoder will use a dual

SVC multiple layer per frame encoding is invoked with vpx_svc_init and
vpx_svc_encode. These interfaces are designed to be invoked from ffmpeg.
Additional improvements:
- make dummy frame handling a bit more explicit
- fixed bug with single layer encodes
- track individual frame sizes and psnrs instead of averages
- parameterized quantizer, 16th scalefactors, more logging,
- enabled single layer encodes to generate baseline
- include new mode for 3 layer I frame with 5 total layers
