[Bug]: DRI3 implementation lacks vaPutSurface()

[terr72]

Which component impacted?

Not sure

Is it regression? Good in old configuration?

None

What happened?

1. I'm using Linux Mint 21.2 Xfce, which is based on Ubuntu Jammy.

2. It currently comes with libva2 2.14.0-1 and iHD 22.3.1.

3. Run xine -V vaapi --verbose "xvdr+tcp://127.0.0.1:37890#nocache" or xine -V vaapi --verbose randomrecording.ts

4. This results in a black screen with only audio playing. The verbose log quickly fills with repeated video_out_vaapi Error : vaPutSurface(): unknown libva error entries.

The problem seems to be a lack of vaPutSurface() support in your DRI3 implementation.
See also this libva issue report, which affects hardware decoding in Chromium as well.

What's the usage scenario when you are seeing the problem?

Playback

What impacted?

xine, vdr-sxfe, vdr-plugin-xineliboutput
Apparently also chromium.

Debug Information

1. libva2 2.14.0-1 and intel-media-driver 22.3.1
2. by-path card0 renderD128
3. 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Device [8086:46d1]
4. vainfo.log

Do you want to contribute a patch to fix the issue?

While there is a workaround of using...

export LIBVA_DRI3_DISABLE=1

to your environment, it's not a great long term solution.

Is Intel working on this ?

@atic-atac From my understanding this is an issue where both involved parties point fingers at each other.
The Intel devs say "hey, you could fix this with a simple patch in your code" while the libva team states "you need to implement this in your code". I can understand both sides, but being an end user caught between the stools, this is a pretty unsatisfying situation.
