FreeBSD doesn't provide timerfd and eventfd functions. These are implemented in
3rd party library called epoll-shim. Link targets requiring these functions to
this library.
Separate the session manager in a monitor and policy part.
The monitor manages the devices and endpoints.
The policy watches the nodes/ports/clients and applies the policy
of linking them.
Because both now have a separate connection, we can remove some
hacks in the protocol. When a remote was both the implementer and
user of an object we could get in a deadlock when the user was
blocked waiting and the implementator was blocked sending a reply.
We used to un-busy a client when it was expecting a reply from a
ping or sync for this reason.
Add and use some more keys for the endpoints and streams.
Metadata allows apps to attach properties to objects that can be
read by other apps.
Not complete yet, properties should be removed when the object is
removed.
The filter API is meant for making generic audio and video filters.
It's like a pw_stream but with many in/out ports and no conversion.
Eventually the pw_stream will be implemented with the filter.
Add some example audio and video filters.
Change node.priority to priority.session to indicate that this
is the priority that the session manager uses to select the node.
Add another priority.master that the core uses to select a master
driver. Keep the driver nodes sorted by master priority.
Let jack always prefer to connect to the master driver nodes.
Send suspend to the node when suspending. This is usually the same
as puse for all nodes.
Implement negotiation when we Start audioadapter. This makes it
easier that to track the ports that are negotiated for now.
Use Suspend to clear the audioadapter negotiation.
Add a jack device and activate it when we release the device (for JACK
presumably). We need to work around some issues, jack does not allow
us to connect yet when it asks to release the device so we need to
wait a little and then connect.
