Separate buffer sizes in the info. Make it possible to not set
data pointers for when we use memfd for the memory.
Improve format conversion.
Work on in-place conversion in test-convert2
Do not send the offset and size in the add_mem call, just send the
fd and the flags. The area that we need to map from this to find the
meta, chunk and data are sent in a separate call. This should make
it possible to truncate the memory to a larger size to dynamically
allocate more shared memory for a client.
Remove the Id data type, it's not needed.
Don't automatically map memory in remote.c
Pass the original memory type from server to client.
Handle DmaBuf mem in video-play now that the server passed it on.
Make a method to find the memory block for the given ptr. We can
use this to find the memfd of the memory if there is any. We can
then remove the Shared metadata on buffers.
We can't use a ringbuffer on the chunk because it implies the
consumer would write to it to update the read position, which we
can't do because the chunk is read-only and might even be shared.
Go back to offset/size pairs, which can sortof do the same thing
if we want later when we keep a non-shared read pointer in the
consumer.
Keep alsa timestamp around and filled state for future.
mmap the input port meta/data/chunk as read-only.
Only do clock update requests when asked.
We can't allocate the shared meta in shared mem because then clients can
damage it for other clients. Place it instead right after the buffer
metadata array. Filter out the shared metadata for a client, we send it
as part of the client_buffer structure.
Remove pointer metadata, it's not so useful.
Document the layout of the allocated buffers and the shared memory.
Work on metadata to define control parameters
ringbuffer: remove size and mask from the ringbuffer, we have that
elsewhere in the user of the ringbuffer.
Remove the buffer data offset and size fields and replace with a
ringbuffer. We then have a ringbuffer in all buffer data, which
simplifies things.
We can now remove the ringbuffer metadata.
