spa_io_control_range -> spa_io_range
Add helpers for sequence and control pod objects
Implement control properties in audiotestsrc, update test example.
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 configure multiple io areas on a port by giving
an id to set_io.
Add some types to enumerate the supported ids
Make an area to exchange buffers and one to specify pull ranges.
The idea is to make more area types for controlable properties.
Implement enumeration of IO areas in volume.
We can't use a ringbuffer on the chunk because it implies the
consumer would write to it to update the read position, which we
can't do because the chunk is read-only and might even be shared.
Go back to offset/size pairs, which can sortof do the same thing
if we want later when we keep a non-shared read pointer in the
consumer.
Keep alsa timestamp around and filled state for future.
mmap the input port meta/data/chunk as read-only.
Only do clock update requests when asked.
ringbuffer: remove size and mask from the ringbuffer, we have that
elsewhere in the user of the ringbuffer.
Remove the buffer data offset and size fields and replace with a
ringbuffer. We then have a ringbuffer in all buffer data, which
simplifies things.
We can now remove the ringbuffer metadata.
Add an argument to pass the result param to the caller instead of
having the caller have to pick it up from the builder.
Improve docs for node, clock and monitor
Pass spa_pod everywhere instead of spa_pod_object.
Pass result argument to spa_pod_filter to make things a little
nicer.
Make enum_params and set_param to configure properties, format
and other parameters. This allows us to remove some duplicate
code and make the properties and parameters much more extensible.
Use the object id to mark the id of the parameter.
Remove the spa_format and spa_props.
We can now make the client-node easier by merging the various
format methods into the params.
Make the stream API more powerful now that we can pass params
around.
Remove port properties and replace them with port params. Move the
params from the PortInfo to enum_params.
Use the Param ranges to specify possible sizes etc.
Use dynamic types for the data and meta types.
Move the meta into a separate header.
Remove port state, we can keep track of that ourselves.
Add size to MetaDataEnable params
Unify input and output io areas.
Add support for ranges in the io area.
Automatically recycle buffers in the output areas in process_output
Improve the mixer, add use_buffer support, use a queue of input buffers,
fix mixing, add support for ranges.
Fix mixer and v4l2 tests
Make allocparams into pod objects. This makes it easy to serialize,
copy, create and intersect them.
Add convenience macros for properties
Add helper function to collect object properties.
Use a POD for the format body. This allows us to more easily build
and copy the formats.
Remove obsolete code to make video and audio formats.
Use SpaVideo/AudioInfo to keep track of formats. Make functions to parse
the format into the structures.
Update plugins
process_output is now to finish processing of the output in async nodes,
which means we need to fill the io area before sending the HAVE_OUTPUT
event. This simplifies some things and improves performance because we
don't need to deal with queues and additional checks.
