On NixOS all packages are installed into their own immutable prefix.
Because of this get_pkgconfig_variable will return a
path from within systemd's prefix and we cannot write to it.
By using define_variable we can replace the respective directory
to be from the paths from meson.
Old v0 clients can only handle up to 16 buffers. It's unfortunate that
we have to enforce this globally but otherwise it is possible that
a new client allocated more buffers which it then tries to share with
an old client and fail.
Add Profiler object and fields.
Add profiler extension API. It notifies Profiler objects with
real-time performance data.
Add module that implements the profiler extension.
Add pw-profiler tool that binds to the profiler API and dumps the
data into a log file, gnuplot files, a html page and a script to
generate svg graphs. This is almost the same as what JACK2
JackEngineProfiling does.
Add a asprintf helper function that handles errors correctly.
Use this in places where we use asprintf to avoid warnings when we
don't check the return value.
Install the example media-session
Load the media session according to the PATH
Include the example directory in the PATH so we can run the media
session.
Use the DSP media subtype to describe DSP formats. DSP formats
don't include the rate, channels and channel position in the
format and must use the rate and duration from the position io. This
makes it possible to later change the samplerate dynamically without
having to renegotiate the graph.
The same goes for the video DSP format, which uses the io_video_size
from the io_position to get the size/stride. Set this up in the node
based on the defaults from the context.
Make it possible to define defaults in the daemon config file, such
as samplerate, quantum, video size and framerate. This is stored in
the context and used for the DSP formats.
Make the thread_loop alloc its own loop by default to simplify
some core. Add extra new_full method to pass a custom pw_loop.
Make other loop implementations ready to support custom loops
if we want that later.
The proxy API is the one that we would like to expose for applications
and the other API is used internally when implementing modules or
factories.
The current pw_core object is really a context for all objects so
name it that way. It also makes it possible to rename pw_core_proxy
to pw_proxy later.
Let the core load a set of default modules.
Add a key to control what default set to load, falling back to a
reasonable set. Make the daemon not load any set and rely on the
config script to load modules.
FreeBSD doesn't provide timerfd and eventfd functions. These are implemented in
3rd party library called epoll-shim. Link targets requiring these functions to
this library.
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.
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.
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.
Makes a device with a source and sink that automatically
proxies all physical ports from jack. Jack then drives our
PipeWire pipeline from its own thread.
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.
