#ifndef AVCODEC_PROGRESSFRAME_H
#define AVCODEC_PROGRESSFRAME_H
/**
* ProgressFrame is an API to easily share frames without an underlying
* av_frame_ref(). Its main usecase is in frame-threading scenarios,
* yet it could also be used for purely single-threaded decoders that
* want to keep multiple references to the same frame.
*
* The underlying principle behind the API is that all that is needed
* to share a frame is a reference count and a contract between all parties.
* The ProgressFrame provides the reference count and the frame is unreferenced
* via ff_thread_release_buffer() when the reference count reaches zero.
*
* In order to make this API also usable for frame-threaded decoders it also
* provides a way of exchanging simple information about the state of
* decoding the frame via ff_thread_progress_report() and
* ff_thread_progress_await().
*
* The typical contract for frame-threaded decoders is as follows:
* Thread A initializes a ProgressFrame via ff_thread_progress_get_buffer()
* (which already allocates the AVFrame's data buffers), calls
* ff_thread_finish_setup() and starts decoding the frame. Later threads
* receive a reference to this frame, which means they get a pointer
* to the AVFrame and the internal reference count gets incremented.
* Later threads whose frames use A's frame as reference as well as
* the thread that will eventually output A's frame will wait for
* progress on said frame reported by A. As soon as A has reported
* that it has finished decoding its frame, it must no longer modify it
* (neither its data nor its properties).
*
* Because creating a reference with this API does not involve reads
* from the actual AVFrame, the decoding thread may modify the properties
* (i.e. non-data fields) until it has indicated to be done with this
* frame. This is important for e.g. propagating decode_error_flags;
* it also allows to add side-data late.
*/

* };
* to simplify accessing the embedded AVFrame.
