Parameter Description

Parameter

Description

chn

Int, decoding channel ID.

The value range of this parameter is [0, 128). The maximum number of channels is 128.

stream

Dict, input stream information. For details, see hi_img_stream. The configured addr in this dictionary must be a buffer address on the device.

png_pic_info

Dict, dictionary of output image information. For details, see hi_pic_info.

milli_sec

Int, timeout interval, in milliseconds.

  • –1: blocking mode
  • 0: non-blocking mode
  • > 0: timeout interval (timeout mode). The timeout interval varies with the operating system. The deviation is generally within a time slice of an operating system. For example, if the time slice of an operating system is 4 ms and the value of milli_sec is set to 1, the actual timeout interval ranges from 1 ms to 5 ms. When the CPU load is high, the timeout interval may fluctuate.

Return Value Description

Return Value

Description

ret

Int, error code.

Restrictions

  • Ensure that a channel has been created. Otherwise, the error code HI_ERR_PNGD_UNEXIST is returned. If the channel is destroyed when streams are being sent, the error code HI_ERR_PNGD_UNEXIST is returned.
  • To send a stream, a complete PNG image is required. Otherwise, an error occurs during decoding.
  • In non-blocking mode, the error code HI_ERR_PNGD_BUF_FULL is returned if the stream buffer is full.
  • In timeout mode, if the stream fails to be fed within the specified timeout interval, the error code HI_ERR_PNGD_BUF_FULL is returned.
  • For details about the requirements for the input and output images during image decoding, see Functions and Restrictions.
  • For decoding, the input buffer and output buffer must be allocated by using the acl.himpi.dvpp_malloc call and freed by using the acl.himpi.dvpp_free call, respectively. Place the acl.himpi.dvpp_free call after the pngd_get_image_data call.
