Only allow properties inside objects, this makes it easier to
iterate the object, which is needed for efficiently processing
control streams.
Add a choice type to mark variable properties.
SPA_TYPE_Enum -> SPA_TYPE_Id to avoid confusion with choice enum
Make it easier to allocate and initialize properties on the stack
Make more efficient methods to make objects.
SPA_ID_* -> SPA_TYPE_*. We use 'type' for all registered types.
ID refers to either a registered type or an enum.
Improve introspection of object ids. Make 0 an invalid enum and
use it to look up the object id type.
Move some type-info files together.
Swap type and id of the object, we first specify the type and then
the id because the meaning of the id depends on the object type.
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 explicit links between elements that are used to activate the
next element in the graph.
Make subgraphs a special regular node. Make a link from the
subgraph children to the parent so that the subgraph completes when
all the children completed.
Implement a single process function in plugins
Remove many messages in the client node
Add control properties to audiotestsrc for frequency and volume
and add a test program.
Add size parameter to set_io for additional checks and to make it
easy to know how much control data we can write.
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.
Reset the builder when the filter failed.
Make the plugins create their params in a temporary buffer, we
don't want to do in-place filtering because that is not always
possible. Because the filter now resets on error, we can remove
the reset from the plugins.
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.
Make a new method that can take a local node and run it in a remote
pipeline. This basically replaces all functionality of the streams
and more.
Add 2 examples for exporting a sink and a v4l2 node
Make some more things const
Cleanups
Make it possible to do things when the node needs scheduling. The
default node will schedule the local pipeline but the remote node might
also schedule the remote pipeline.
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.
Remove the node state. The state of the node is based on the state
of the ports, which can be derived directly from calling the port
methods. Track this state in the Port instead.
Add a mixer module that puts a mixer in from of audio sinks. This allows
multiple clients to play on one sink (still has some bugs). do some
fixes in the mixer and the scheduler to make this work.
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
Use counters instead of void* to iterate items. This simplifies some
things and makes it easier to do over the wire.
Add format description to NodeInfo and use this to add format
descriptions to pinos devices.
Small fixes to fix leaks and crashes.
We can optimize the transport some more if we allow the host to
configure the area used for transfering buffers. We can then also place
the current status in the area and avoid calling get_status(). We can
also allocate this area in shared memory, avoiding a memcpy in the
client-node.
Move array and map to pinos
Move more things to spa lib
ControlCmd -> Message
Make pinos log, use for plugins as well
work on ringbuffer in alsa and nodes
work on making registry with all objects
Remove unused events, drained and marker can be done with
ASYNC_COMPLETED messages
Handle result of idle callback to disable the poll item
Identify poll items with a unique id.
Remove set_state vfunc
push_event -> send_command, commands are to do something, events are the
result of something.
Add poll item in v4l2 as soon as we have the fd but disable the item
until streaming starts.
Add explicit DMABUF memory because we can't use it like an fd in v4l2.
mmap random fd memory and use userptr in v4l2 to use it.
Allocate buffer data memory in memfd when no node can allocate.
Improve debug some more
simplify port numbering again by using 0->max_ports for bot input ports
and output ports. This means we need to tall what direction the port is.
Add port_info serialize functions
Copy metadata and data when we are not sharing buffers.
Make pinossink work again.
Remove the memory stuff from the spa API, we can do thing more simple
and efficiently if we always allocate buffers outside of the plugins and
only implement an alloc function on the node when it can do something
clever.
Move serialize code to the props/format/buffer code
Make it possible to copy a format and properties.
