Pass the client.id that we made this endpoint for in the endpoint
properties. This makes it possible to let pulse find the client
that belongs to the endpiont. The client.id is used to find the
client that actually made the object (the session manager)
Create an endpoint link object when linking endpoints. Keep track
of the links in the endpoint_link and cleanup when they are all
gone.
Improve properties on session objects.
Create a helper in the session manager to link all ports between
2 nodes.
Make the output endpoint call the input endpoint create_link, passing
the node or ports to link to.
Make the input endpoint complete the link by calling the session
helper to link all ports.
Remove the node policy, we're only using a policy for the endpoints
now.
Move all the media-session object monitoring into one place and
provide an API to get to the session objects.
Make API to add module specific info to objects.
Add methods to export and create objects in the session. This should
make it possible to link proxy to implementation and avoid a server
roundtrip in some cases.
pulseaudio card is mapped to device
pulseaudio sink/source is mapped to an endpoint
prepare to map streams to card profiles
Add Route param to implement the endpoint routing later (ports)
Create an alsa endpoint for each device
Create one stream for each endpoint (Playback/Capture)
Implement create_link on the endpoint. The idea is to call
create link on the peer endpoint to complete the link. Remove
create_link on the session.
Add stream-monitor to turn pw_stream nodes into endpoints
Add a policy manager that tries to link endpoints
Use enum pw_direction for the endpoint direction. We can use the
media_class to determine if this is a pw_stream or not but it should
not really matter, you can link any output to any input.
Add autoconnect property for endpoints to make the policy connect.
Remove some of the unused states in pw_stream. The app can know the
state by following the format and buffer events.
Make it possible to be notified of io are updates. This should make it
possible to follow the transport etc.
Make it possible to be notified of any param changes.
Rename finish_format to update_params because that is what it does.
Make this work in the same was as the filter: updating the params
removes all old params of the types and installs the new ones.
Don't get the Props and PropInfo from the node proxy, instead get them
directly from the adapter that we have locally. Update the controls
directly on the adapter instead of going to the server first.
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.
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.
Implement the device reservation DBus API.
When we acquire the device name, set our device profile to 'On'. This
adds our sources and sinks to the graph.
When we lose the name, switch back to 'Off' and remove our nodes
again.
Move the session mamager stuff in a directory.
Fixes#191
Remove the monitor API, we can use the device API for it. Make sure
we support creating devices (like alsa) from another device (udev).
Use new object.id to store the object id in the object properties. Use
the port.id/node.id etc to make relations to other objects.
Remove the parent_id from the global event. Remove the parent
and owner from the global object.
Use properties instead to mark parents and owners of objects.
Properties are easier to control for client exported objects and
usually a simple parent/child is not enough. For example, a client
exported node has the client as a parent but also the factory that
created the node.
