The Xilinx ZynqMP SoC includes a powerful H.264/H.265 Video Codec Unit (VCU) which Xilinx supports with an out-of-tree driver and user space library. The allegro driver from mainline Linux allows to use the VCU using the standard V4L2 encoder API without requiring any custom user space.
I will explain why I wrote the driver, show how the VCU is used from a driver perspective, and present the current state of the driver and which features are still missing.
