Pull request overview

Updates AIDL interface documentation for the audio/video decoder HALs to clarify post-signalEOS() behaviour and how EOS is indicated via FrameMetadata.endOfStream, aligning the contract discussed in gh #358 with the interface comments.

Changes:

Clarify decodeBuffer() return behaviour when signalEOS() has already been called.
Document that decodeBuffer() calls after signalEOS() (until flush/restart) must return false.
Refine FrameMetadata.endOfStream wording to describe EOS signalling on the final output callback.

Pull request overview

Updates AIDL documentation to clarify end-of-stream (EOS) semantics for the audio/video decoder controllers and their FrameMetadata.endOfStream output flag, aligning expected decodeBuffer() behaviour after signalEOS().

Changes:

Document that decodeBuffer() returns false if called after signalEOS() until the decoder is flushed or restarted.
Clarify that FrameMetadata.endOfStream is an output flag set on the final frame callback after EOS, once all queued frames are output.
Minor whitespace cleanup in audio FrameMetadata.aidl.

-	 * End of stream indicator.
+	 * End of stream flag for decoder output.
+	 * Set to true on the final frame output callback after signalEOS(), once all queued frames have been output.
+	 * This may correspond to an end of stream marker in the audio bitstream, when present.


audio bitstreams will not have eos markers present

there is dummy onFrameOutput call with -1 pts and null framehandle after signalEOS(). This info missing, add this info to onFrameOutput

Is this SOC specific implementation ?

No, this is not implementation-specific. The callback behavior should be explicitly documented; otherwise, the caller will not be aware of the final dummy frame.

its not on the final frame, there will be a dummy onFrameOutput with -1 pts and null frame handle after final frame delivered

Is this implementation specific ?

No, this is not implementation-specific. The behavior of the callbacks needs to be clearly defined; otherwise, the caller may not know that a final dummy frame (with invalid PTS and null handle) is delivered after signalEOS().

Pull request overview

Updates the Audio/Video decoder AIDL interface documentation to clarify end-of-stream (EOS) behaviour, including how EOS affects subsequent buffer submission and how EOS is communicated in frame metadata.

Changes:

Documented that decodeBuffer() must return false after signalEOS() for both audio and video decoders.
Expanded FrameMetadata.endOfStream documentation to describe EOS signalling scenarios (including “EOS-only” callbacks).
Minor whitespace cleanup in audio FrameMetadata.aidl.
