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.
Implement per channel volume on channelmix. Extend control on stream to
take an array of values when possible.
Remove name argument from pw_node_new and pw_device_new. We can pass
this as a property instead.
Improve properties on nodes to more closely match what pulseaudio does.
Don't let the monitor do too much with the udev properties but let the
session manager set the description and icon-names.
Remove some change_mask flags for things that don't change in
introspect. Use the flags to mark changes in -cli and -monitor.
Pass a factory_name in the object_info of monitor and device.
Restructure the factory name to mean something functionaly. With
the factory to library mapping this then means that the implementation
of certain factories can be configured in the config file.
The interface struct has the type,version and methods of the
interface.
Make spa interfaces extend from spa_interface and make a
separate structure for the methods.
Pass a generic void* as the first argument of methods, like
we don in PipeWire.
Bundle the methods + implementation in a versioned inteface
and use that to invoke methods. This way we can do version
checks on the methods.
Make resource and proxy interfaces that we can can call. We
can then make the core interfaces independent on proxy/resource and
hide them in the lower layers.
Add add_listener method to methods of core interfaces, just
like SPA.
Make some more varargs error functions
Make pw_resource_error always just send the error to the resource id.
Make sure we send errors to the right destination.
Add proxy error event and emit it when the core finds an error for
the given proxy id.
The client error is supposed to be sent to all resources of a client
for the given global.
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.
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.
Add properties to global objects to make it easier to select what
nodes and objects to bind too. They can also be used to implement
permissions on the globals based on properties.
Add more error handling in _register.
Make more functions return a result code.
Make a separate pw_module_register, like all other objects.
Avoid duplicating API, remove implementations from port and node and
always use an spa_node as the implementation, it's just as easy to
implement a spa node. With the implementation always being a spa_node
we will be able to better implement the negotiation of the mixers.
Add signal handlers for daemon to shut down
Add destroy listeners for modules and do cleanup
Fix some leaks
Simplify port registration in new nodes
Hide some more data structures
Let the node implementation take care of the reuse_buffer signal because
then we can get to the graph nodes to find the destination port.
Destroy modules in core cleanup. Modules should undo everything they
have done.
Activate the link after we negotiated format and buffers.
Fix docs
Add some more versions to interfaces
Make types for the various proxy object + inline methods that does type
checking and create proxys etc.
Set owner client of client-nodes in the properties
Pass type to bind to in create-node
Don't place global id in the info structs
Improve registration of marshal functions
Pass more types around as ids
