Sebastian Fricke of Collabora sent out the HEVC driver patch series for RkVDEC that get HEVC working for the RK3399 SoC. It's also planned to enable this HEVC support for the Rockchip RK3288 SoC too.
This Rockchip RkVDEC HEVC acceleration has been tested so far with GStreamer's V4L2 plug-in and select conformance test cases while FFmpeg hasn't yet been attempted.
Those interested in Rockchip RkVDEC support for HEVC can see this media driver patch series for all the details on this to-be-reviewed code. In its present form this HEVC support is tacking on three thousand lines of code.
