[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 09/18] avcodec/hevcdec: Add stat_coeffs to HEVCABACState

The HEVC decoder has both HEVCContext and HEVCLocalContext
structures. The latter is supposed to be the structure
containing the per-slicethread state.

Yet that is not how it is handled in practice: Each HEVCLocalContext
has a unique HEVCContext allocated for it and each of these
coincides with the main HEVCContext except in exactly one field:
The corresponding HEVCLocalContext.
This makes it possible to pass the HEVCContext everywhere where
logically a HEVCLocalContext should be used.

This led to confusion in the first version of what eventually became
commit c8bc0f66a875bc3708d8dc11b757f2198606ffd7:
Before said commit, the initialization of the Rice parameter derivation
state was incorrect; the fix for single-threaded as well as
frame-threaded decoding was to add backup stats to HEVCContext
that are used when the cabac state is updated*, see
https://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2020-August/268861.html
Yet due to what has been said above, this does not work for
slice-threading, because the each HEVCLocalContext has its own
HEVCContext, so the Rice parameter state would not be transferred
between threads.

This is fixed in c8bc0f66a875bc3708d8dc11b757f2198606ffd7
by a hack: It rederives what the previous thread was and accesses
the corresponding HEVCContext.

Fix this by treating the Rice parameter state the same way
the ordinary CABAC parameters are shared between threads:
Make them part of the same struct that is shared between
slice threads. This does not cause races, because
the parts of the code that access these Rice parameters
are a subset of the parts of code that access the CABAC parameters.

*: And if the persistent_rice_adaptation_enabled_flag is set.
