The policy can of course be higher than zero if the current thread uses
anything other than `SCHED_OTHER`, and `SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK` needs to be
set according to the old policy or we'll either run into errors or cause
unwanted side effects.
There are a couple other ways to allow a user/process to use realtime
priviliges like `CAP_SYS_NICE`. Instead of trying to check every
possible factor, just trying if setting realtime priviliges works is
going to be a much cleaner solution.
This automatically configures the node in a supported format with the
highest amount of channels. Options are available to enable monitor
and to override the port channels as AUX or UNKNOWN.
Make the default nice.level an invalid value, that is not configured
as the priority on a process.
Explicitly enable a nice level on our daemon processes.
Fixes#2034
You can pass some node.param.* properties to the adapter and it will
configure them, so you can do:
node.param.Props = {
params = [
audio.channels 6
]
}
Remove adapter.port-config because it can be done with node.param
It takes a JSON POD description of the PortConfig parameter and sets it
on the node. This can be used to configure the ports of the adapter node
directly.
At the moment, file descriptors may be leaked
due to a malicious/buggy client:
1. If the control messages have been truncated, some file descriptors
may still have been successfully transferred. Currently, seeing
the MSG_CTRUNC bit causes `refill_buffer()` to immediately return
-EPROTO without doing anything with the control messages, which
may contain file descriptors.
2. When there is no truncation, it is still possible that the current
batch of file descriptors causes the total file descriptor count
to go over the maximum number of fds for the given buffer (currently 1024).
In this case, too, `refill_buffer()` immediately returns -EPROTO
without closing the file descriptors that can not be saved.
Fix both of these cases by closing all file descriptors in all
remaining cmsgs when one of the mentioned conditions occur.
Use the lower 32 bits of the object serial as the index. When there is
an overflow, use an invalid index, which will probably result in a
protocol error.
Since 01c6fd0a88 the
minimum required meson version is 0.59.0, and since
meson 0.58.0, `get_variable()` on a dependency object
accepts a positional argument. The "type" of variable
(internal, pkgconfig, etc.) in that case does not need
to be specified explicitly.
Because otherwise just looking at the rest of the output and seeing the
thread being set to priority 20 instead of the value that's set in the
config file may look a bit confusing.
I don't think PipeWire currently has a way to temporarily alias
module-rtkit to module-rt though, so right now this would break realtime
scheduling for people with modified configs that use module-rtkit.
Try regular realtime scheduling using sched_setscheduler (or the
pthreads equivalent) before falling back to rtkit. This is how it rtkit
was to be used, and it removes one configuration step from using
PipeWire for pro audio. The implementation should also work on FreeBSD
when PipeWire is run as root since to my knowledge there's currently no
way for normal users to use realtime scheduling on FreeBSD, but this has
not been tested.
This commit also fixes a memory leak because `impl->props` was never
freed again.
Don't use max_quantum as the upper quantum limit, this is now scaled
with the rate. Use quantum_limit instead. We don't really care about the
max_quantum anymore so get rid of the field.
Firstly, separate the message dropping logic into
its own `drop_from_out_queue()` function.
Secondly, do not check earlier messages if the NEW
event for a particular object has been reached while
processing a REMOVE event for that object.
Thirdly, if - while processing a REMOVE event -
the corresponding NEW event is found and dropped,
drop the REMOVE event as well.
See #1840
Parse the quantum_limit parameters and use this to scale the buffers so
that they can contain the maximum allowed samples instead of the
hardcoded 8192 value.
See #1931
Also scale the max_quantum with the selected rate. Add a new
quantum_limit property that is the upper limit of the quantum regardless
of the sample rate, this is usually the allocated buffer size.
See #1931
