The Doxygen "Modules" page is not very illuminative, as different parts
of the API are mixed together and not all parts are included.
Try to address this:
Put all parts of the public API to some Doxygen group, usually one group
per header file. Use short, systematic names.
Make these groups sub-groups of a few top-level groups, roughly
corresponding to the different logical parts of the API (core, impl,
stream, filter, spa, utilities).
check if a node has AUX channels and mark it as unpositioned in that
case.
If the peer node we need to link to has unpositioned channels, don't try
to configure the node for the unpositioned layout but instead configure
it to its default format and link the ports one by one, as many as there
are.
This is mostly for Pro-audio devices. It does not make sense to
try to remix a stereo stream to 18 channels. Most likely the pro-audio
card does not have 18 speakers connected and we would not known how to
remix anyway because the channels don't have a position. So, just take
the 2 channels and link them to the 2 first AUX inputs, which is usually
more correct and mimics what other players do when outputting to JACK.
If a specific remapping needs to be done for the pro-audio card, it
needs to be configured with a virtual device.
Output ports share the same buffers on all mix outputs and the buffers
are stored in a special mix area with id SPA_ID_INVALID.
The special mix area does not have the peer_id of the link, we need to
get that from the non-shared mix area.
This fixes some invalid peer port-id values in the set_mix_info event.
Make it possible to let a plugin suggest a samplerate for the filter.
Make the convolver suggest the samplerate of the IR file anf use that
if nothing else is specified in the config.

module-zeroconf-discover loads module-pulse-tunnel for each entity
exposed on the network. Previously, however, the destroy event
of the loaded pulse-tunnel modules were not handled.
This resulted in a use-after-free because both `pw_context_destroy()`
and `module-zeroconf-discover.c:impl_free()` tried to destroy
the pulse-tunnel modules. The reason for that is that since
1de16afc40 the modules
are prepended to the module list of the context, not appended,
therefore modules are destroyed in LIFO order, thus the pulse-tunnel
modules were destroyed before the zeroconf-discover module that
loaded them.
Fix that by handling the destroy event of the loaded pulse-tunnel
modules.
Fixes#1653
Where pipewire and friends are started via socket activation,
a PA client connection to the pulse socket triggers
pipewire-pulse.service. That in turn triggers pipewire.service through
Wants/After and once that is started up, pipewire-pulse actually
starts up.
At the same time, pipewire-media-session or wireplumber are started
through WantedBy/after in the respective service files.
Depending on which leg the race condition got out of bed with today,
pipewire-pulse may be finished before the session manager has set up the
graph and the PA client doesn't see any devices.
Fix this by adding a dependency on the session manager in
pipewire-pulse, installed via an Alias so media-session and wireplumber
can install the same alias. Wants is a light dependency, so for the case
where it doesn't exist we fall back to the current behavior anyway.
This doesn't remove the race condition since systemd may deem the
session manager to have started before the graph is set up, but it
should reduce the occurances.
The disadvantage here: only one Alias will be installed by systemd, so
first-come, first-serve in the case of both media-session and
wireplumber being installed.
See #1553
Without this, a journal entry merely looks like this:
Stopping Multimedia Service ...
Which is obviously terrible from a branding perspective but also makes
it harder for users to figure out what process was responsible for this
entry.
Media-session itself uses ms.core, there are only two files that could
have a sub-topic but right now they don't use it (match-rules and
metadata).
The modules use the ms.mod.* namespace, so it's trivial to filter on
those.
This is more complicated than a normal module because we have two
logging topics: mod.protocol-native and conn.protocol-native for wire
messages. Because the latter use spa_debug (through spa_debug_pod) we
need to #define our way around so those too use the right topics.
Note that this removes the previous "connection" category, it is now
"conn.protocol-native" instead.
pw_log_log/logv now go through the topic-based logger using the
"default" topic. Log topics themselves can be allocated by the call
sites. The simplest way to use a topic from e.g. a module:
PW_LOG_TOPIC_STATIC(mod_topic, "mod.foo");
#define PW_LOG_TOPIC_DEFAULT mod_topic
...
void pipewire__module_init() {
PW_LOG_TOPIC_INIT(mod_topic);
...
}
With the #define all pw_log_foo() are now routed through the custom
topic. For the cases where the log topic must be specified, a
pw_logt_foo() set of macros is available.
Log topics are enabled through the PIPEWIRE_DEBUG environment variable
which now supports globs, e.g. PIPEWIRE_DEBUG="*:I;mod.access:D"
to enable global INFO but DEBUG for the access module.
Namespaces documented are "pw", "mod" and "conn", for pipewire-internal
stuff, modules and connection dumping. The latter is special-cased to
avoid spamming the log files, it requires an expcit "conn.<glob>"
pattern to enable.
The "default" topic always exists and is the fallback for any
pw_log_foo() invocation that does not use a topic.
Previous commit 69e935e unconditionally called pw_log_set_level() after
the option parsing. If pw_init() changed the logging level based on
PIPEWIRE_DEBUG, we'd now overwrite that change.
Call pw_log_set_level() only if -v is actually given on the commandline.
This means a commandline option will override PIPEWIRE_DEBUG if set but
that is intended.
