SPA_ID_* -> SPA_TYPE_*. We use 'type' for all registered types.
ID refers to either a registered type or an enum.
Improve introspection of object ids. Make 0 an invalid enum and
use it to look up the object id type.
Move some type-info files together.
Swap type and id of the object, we first specify the type and then
the id because the meaning of the id depends on the object type.
Param ids and IO ids are now simple enums.
Move some type info in one place, delete some type-info files
Fix type debug
Make audio layout an enum
Mark more enums as enums in types so they show us with their names in
the debug.
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.
Make it possible to assign an arbitary node as the port mixer.
Also remove dynamically added ports.
Improve negotiation and allocation on the mixer ports
Add some more SSE optimisations
Move float mixer from the audio dsp to the port
Remove pw_node_get_free_port() and do things more explicitly.
Handle mixer ports in client-node
Simplify the stream API. make just 2 methods to queue and dequeue
buffers. Make just one callback when new buffers can be dequeued.
Add support for driver nodes such as the video-src.
Pass a pw_buffer structure to add/remove_buffer and make it possible
to attach metadata to it. This makes it a lot easier to implement
the gstreamer pipewire pool.
Call the stream process function from the main loop and use a lockfree
ringbuffer to pass buffers between the threads. Make it possible to
also call process from the RT thread.
unmap the buffer data when needed.
Pass client to some core functions to make it possible to check
permissions when iterating globals.
Check permissions of factory before using it.
Check permissions in link factory, only allow linking of nodes we can
see.
Check permissions in the autolink module, only try to link to nodes
we can see.
Make client permissions update behave like an atomic update of an
unordered set of permissions, which is perhaps a bit more intuitive.
Load and register the module in one go because we need to have the
global set when calling the init function so that factories and nodes
can use this as the parent global.
Set the name in the global properties.
Add properties to global objects to make it easier to select what
nodes and objects to bind too. They can also be used to implement
permissions on the globals based on properties.
Add more error handling in _register.
Make more functions return a result code.
Make a separate pw_module_register, like all other objects.
