So that all nodes attach to some driver to be scheduled.
For the virtual sink/sources this is a normal thing and we can remove
the custom settings.
For normal stream, this now makes it possible to link pw-play directly
to pw-record and have it transport data.
Fixes#1761
It's possible that the stream is sent an error when the session manager
can't link the node (because, for example, the sink/source is not
available yet). We should not stop but just log this error.
When the session manager actively kills the stream (when it is
reconnected while the DONT_RECONNECT flag is true) we will end up in the
UNCONNECTED state and that's when we can unload the module.
Track the end-to-end latency of the stream and use that to drive
the resampler.
Hard reset the ringbuffer when under/overflow happens so that we
can recover quickly.
See #2230
Make helper method to parse thread properties and add 2 new properties
to control name and stack-size of the thread.
Use properties when creating threads with the default utils.
Use the default thread utils instead of pthread_create so that the
properties are used.
Move all module methods into the `module_info` struct, and place
all such structs into the "pw_mod_pulse_modules" section of
the executable. This way there is no need for an explicit
module registry, and all information about a module can
be declared in the module's source file in a single place.
We use the done event to send the object serial to the client. Use an
invalid object id for this and filter it out on the receiver or else
the client might get an unexpected done event.
Fixes#2253
The RTKit module is being replaced by the RT module. Currently, it is
always built if D-Bus is present. For packagers, it can be beneficial to
be able to disable the legacy module. Add a Meson option to allow for
exactly that. Make it enabled by default to not change default behavior.
Setting a global thread-utils is not a good idea, especially
when multiple contexts will register their own interface.
Instead, set the thread-utils as a context object and use this to
configure the data loop in the context.
In JACK we need a per context implementation of the interface so that
we can find the context specific thread-utils.
See #2252
Assign half the latency to the internal ringbuffer and half on the
network and remote end.
Use a dll to calculate the drift from our target ringbuffer fill
level and use the stream rate property to driver the resampler.
This should reduce uncontrolled latency over the tunnel.
PulseAudio wants us to be a driver will pull requests from the remote
side. We would need to provide a clock based on the remote end and
also try to follow it when we are not a driver. It would be slightly
better because in the normal playback case we would be able to
avoid resampling. We might do this eventually.
For the modules that require a driver, don't add ourselves to
the pipewire.dummy group but instead just use the NODE_WANT_DRIVER
property to be assigned to a driver.
This makes it possible for the nodes to move to another driver than the
dummy driver (which has very high priority) and it avoids resampling in
cases where the nodes are linked to an audio source or sink.
Deprecate pw_stream_get_time() in favour of _get_time_n() that contains
the size of the pw_time structure. Make the old one fill in the fields
up to the buffered field. Make the new one use the size to decide how
much info to fill in.
Add a new buffered field in pw_time that contains the buffered data
inside the converter/resampler. This leaves the queued field with
purely the user provided size in the buffers.
Use get_time_n() in places.
And use this in spa_json_format_float() where we also avoid invalid
json floats.
Use json float format in some places where we serialize json floats.
Add a unit test.
See #2223
After dequeueing the buffer, the code immediately checks if it is NULL,
and never modifies the variable. Therefore there is no need to check
again when the buffer is enqueued.
Support setting extra properties on the sink and source with the
sink/source_properties.
Fix construction of the module arguments, the sink/source.props needs to
be inside the object..
Fixes #2201
When a particular AvahiWatch is being dispatched, it cannot
be freed because `watch_callback()` accesses it after
the callback.
Introduce a member (`dispatching`) to coordinate
the deferred freeing in that case.
The timeouts are not affected because the `AvahiTimeout`
object is not accessed after the callback is called.
