The video-play-fixate example will downgrade the stream to MemFd one
modifier at a time. Sometimes it's useful to test with not downgrading;
to avoid having to depend on actual DRM devices (real or virtual), fake
them by using memfd and mapping them in the sink.
Automatically make an empty PeerCapability param when we receive a
Latency event without a PeerCapability. This makes new client always
receive a PeerCapability param, even when the other side did not provide
anything or when the server is too old to collect them.
Add a new SPA_TYPE_OBJECT_ParamDict object that contains a struct with
key/value pairs. We're using something similar for Tags but this is a
more generic version.
Make a new Capability param that uses the ParamDict object. This is
meant to be used to describe capabilities with the generic key/value
struct.
Make a new PeerParam object where the keys are generic ids of the peer
objects and the values any Pod. The idea is to use this object to store
a peer objects. Make some helpers to iterate the peers and their
objects.
Add a new PeerCapability param that uses the PeerParam object with
Capability objects. This can be used to send the collection of
Capabilities from all peers to a port. This is a bit like the tags but
in a more generic way. The tags could also be implemented in this new
generic way later.
Make the PeerFormats use the same PeerParam of Format objects.
The Capability param is set on ports. impl-link will collect all
Capability objects into a PeerCapability object and send this to the
peer. The difference with the Tag param is that these Capability params
are not in any way forwared on the node automatically (like what is done
in the loopback module) because they represent the capabilities of the
ports betweem the link.
Add a function that accepts the size of the position array when reading
the audio positions. This makes it possible to decouple the position
array size from SPA_AUDIO_MAX_CHANNELS.
Also use SPA_N_ELEMENTS to pass the number of array elements to
functions instead of a fixed constant. This makes it easier to change
the array size later to a different constant without having to patch up
all the places where the size is used.
We need exclusive port use if we negotiated SyncTimeline because there
can only be one consumer of the syncobj.
We also need to enable reliable transport if synctimeline is supported
but the release flag isn't.
Add some more logging to the port when the exclusive and reliable states
changed.
Fixes#4885
Add an example producer and consumer using the SyncTimeline metadata.
The syncobj are just eventfd for the purpose of the example.
Also demonstrate the RELEASE feature when negotiated.
Add some switches to tweak the SyncTimeline and features support.
See #4885
Add an example of a filter sink that requires MemFd memory on the
input port. Show that it gets automatically mapped and that it contains
MemFd memory.
Fixes#4918
We don't need to do this ourselves, the MAP_BUFFERS port flag already
makes sure this is done for use.
We used to have to do this here to ensure the mixer could find the data
pointer and not error out. Now that the mixer can MMAP, this can go.
See #4918
Count the params as we add them to the param arrays and use that to
update the stream params instead of using hardcoded indexes and sizes.
This makes it easier to add params and it also revealed a miscounted
param.
config.h needs to be consistently included before any standard headers
if we ever want to set feature test macros (like _GNU_SOURCE or whatever)
inside. It can lead to hard-to-debug issues without that.
It can also be problematic just for our own HAVE_* that it may define
if it's not consistently made available before our own headers. Just
always include it first, before everything.
We already did this in many files, just not consistently.
There is no need to encode the potential format in the format.dsp of
control ports, this is just for legacy compatibility with JACK apps. The
actual format can be negotiated with the types field.
Fixes midi port visibility with apps compiled against 1.2, such as JACK
apps in flatpaks.
We now automatically move non-rt clients into non-rt threads so the
client-rt.conf is obsolete.
Move the module-rt in client.conf and add conditions to disable modules.
Transparently load client.conf in case applications still specify
client-rt.conf.
Custon configuration in the client-rt.conf.d/ should be moved to
client.conf.d/
The src can listen to RequestProcess commands and so gets the
node.supports-request = 1 property.
The play-pull example can both be a driver that listens to
RequestProcess or a lazy driver so set this in properties as well.
We can now remove the priority.driver property because automatic
priority selection will make us a driver or not.
With this change, video-src to video-play-pull will use lazy scheduling
with play-pull as the driver. video-play-pull to v4l2src will use
normal scheduling and video-src to video-play will also use normal
scheduling.
The mapoffset should be using in the mmap call as the offset.
Mapping the whole memory before the offset and then ignoring the part
before it seems like it can work but it actually has some problems:
1. some drivers (v4l2) use the mapoffset to calculate the buffer to map
2. we waste resources for mapped but unused pages.
The problem with the mapoffset is that it needs to be page aligned and
that used to be a problem in the past. Nowadays PipeWire no longer set
the mapoffset for any of the memory that it allocates.
Make a method to get the current time to compare agains the pw_time-now
field. This is currently CLOCK_MONOTONIC but make this into a method
so that we can more easily change it later.
Whe using pw_*_new_simple(), pass the properties to the automatically
created context as well so that we can configure it.
This makes it possible to, for example, load the client-rf.conf using the
simple API as well.
