Add a _fast callback function that skips the version and method check.
We can use this in places where performance is critical when we do the
check out of the critical loops.
Make all system methods _fast calls. We expect them to exist and have
the right version. If we add new versions we can make them slow.
Add check for running the the loop context and thread.
Add checks in filter and stream to avoid doing things when not run from
the context main-loop because this can crash things when doing IPC from
concurrent threads.
Add an extra private field to the source to store the pollevent of
the current iteration. This changes ABI but it seems an embedded source
is not used outside of our own plugins and the unit test doesn't test
this ABI case.
Whenever a source is removed, we can set the data field of the
pollevent to NULL so that it won't be handled in any iteration anymore.
Avoid dispatching the same event multiple times when doing recursive
iterations.
Add some more unit tests for this.
Fixes#2114
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).
Subdirectories buffer, control, debug, monitor, pod, support and utils, others
are still missing. Headers are grouped either per subdirectory (e.g. buffer/
gets added to group spa_buffer) or per-file (e.g. spa_json is a separate
group), whatever seemed like the most sensible approach.
Because the signal can't be removed from the callback we can
simply iterate backwards and then forwards.
The first added hook (the unlock/lock pair) is called last before
going into the poll and first when leaving. This executes all other
callbacks inside a locked situation. And removing them with the lock
is not going to cause problems.
This tool detects and fixes common English spelling mistakes, with
generally very few mistakes.
Here is the command I used to generate this commit. There were a few
changes that had to be done manually, and of course adding the ignore
file:
```shell
codespell -I .codespell-ignore -x .codespell-ignore -w
```
I didn’t add it to the CI, but this would be a good place for it.
This is more in line with wayland and it allows us to create new
interfaces in modules without having to add anything to the type
enum. It also removes some lookups to map type_id to readable
name in debug.
Move the epoll functions to the system functions and make the loop
use those. Use simple mask for events instead of enum.
Add the used system api in pw_loop.
Add System API to spa_support and use it where possible.
Pass the system API used in the realtime loops in spa_support as
well and use this in the realtime paths.
Improve bootstrapping, load only the log and cpu interfaces because
those can/need to be shared between instances. Let the core load
the other interfaces.
Add keys to configure the System and Loop implementations used in
pw_loop.
Make a new API to hide some the implementation of eventfd, timerfd
and signalfd along with clock and read/write/ioctl/close functions.
We would like to have plugins use the abstractions so that we
can switch them to something else when needed.
The interface struct has the type,version and methods of the
interface.
Make spa interfaces extend from spa_interface and make a
separate structure for the methods.
Pass a generic void* as the first argument of methods, like
we don in PipeWire.
Bundle the methods + implementation in a versioned inteface
and use that to invoke methods. This way we can do version
checks on the methods.
Make resource and proxy interfaces that we can can call. We
can then make the core interfaces independent on proxy/resource and
hide them in the lower layers.
Add add_listener method to methods of core interfaces, just
like SPA.
Remove the done and error callbacks. The error callback is in an
error message. The done callback is replace with spa_pending.
Make enum_params take a callback and data for the results. This allows
us to push the results one after another to the app and avoids ownership
issues of the passed data. We can then extend this to handle the async
case by doing a _wait call with a spa_pending+callback+data that will
be called when the _enum_params returns and async result.
Add a sync method.
All methods can now return SPA_RESULT_IS_ASYNC return values and you
can use spa_node_wait() to register a callback when they complete
with optional extra parameters. This makes it easier to sync and
handle the reply.
Make helper methods to simulate the sync enum_params behaviour for
sync nodes.
Let the transport generate the sequence number for pw_resource_sync()
and pw_proxy_sync(). That way we don't need to keep track of numbers
ourselves and we can match the reply to the request easily.
Do not use dynamic types anymore. The reason is that it's difficult:
- to maintain a shared type database over a network.
- the extra overhead when translating between processes and for
maintaining the translation tables.
- race conditions in translating in RT-threads, this is a problem
because we want to make event streams.
We now have simple enums with types and extension points for all
types. This is also nicer to use in general.
We don't need the mapper anymore or pass strings around as types.
There is a parallel type info system to get more info about ids and
enums and their hierarchy. It can also be used for debugging.
Pass the minimum required version to the hook emission and only call
events when the handler is recent enough.
Add some macros to make event emission easier to read.
