| Overview |

| |
| libva-utils is a collection of tests to exercise VA-API in accordance |
| with the libva project. A driver implementation is necessary to properly |
| operate. |

| Requirements |
| ------------ |
| |
| libva API >= 0.39.4 |
| |
| Google Test Framework Integration |
| --------------------------------- |
| |
| Google Test recommends it be custom compiled for each project that uses it. |
| Therefore, the libva-utils project tracks a subset copy of the Google |
| Test Framework source code at release 1.8.0 (initially) in a test/gtest/ |
| subdirectory of the project source tree. The libva-utils copy of gtest |
| will only be updated to new upstream releases (or critical upstream fixes) of |
| gtest, only if it is necessary. As of this writing, the last release (1.8.0) |
| was August 2016, about three years after its previous release. Thus, there |
| should be minimal need to update or maintain gtest within the libva-utils |
| project. |
| |
| Building Google Test Framework Library |
| -------------------------------------- |
| |
| The Google Test Framework is compiled as a convenience library (libgtest.la) |
| within the libva-utils source tree. The rules to build libgtest.la are |
| maintained in a custom makefile in the libva-intel-driver project tree |
| (see test/Makefile.am). The libgtest.la library will be automatically compiled |
| if the tests are enabled by configuration. |
| |
| |
| Building Driver Tests |
| --------------------- |
| |
| The --enable-gtests=[yes|no] configuration option is defined in configure.ac to |
| enable or disable compilation of libgtest.la and the test_va_api test executable. |
| The default is disabled. When the tests are enabled during configuration, the |
| make command will compile the VA-API gtests and link to libgtest.la and output/install |
| a single test/test_va_api or ${prefix}/bin/test_va_api executable. Hence... |
| |
| "./autogen.sh --enable-gtests && make" |
| |
| ...is a minimal example of how one might build the driver and its tests. |
| |
| Since all this project contains only tests, it is configurable to compile the GTest |
| framework and the corresponding tests. Notice the difference when enabling |
| tests on other related projects, e.g. libva-intel-driver. |
| |
| On the summary section after configuration something like this should be seen |
| |
| libva-utils - ${LIBVA_UTILS_VERSION} |
| |
| Libva VA-API version ............. : ${LIBVA_API_VERSION} |
| Installation prefix .............. : ${prefix} |
| Default driver path .............. : ${exec_prefix}/lib/dri |
| Extra window systems ............. : drm x11 |
| Enable Gtests .................... : yes |
