Multimedia processing graphs
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. |

PipeWire
--------
PipeWire is a server and user space API to deal with multimedia
pipelines. This includes:
- Making available sources of video (such as from a capture devices or
application provided streams) and multiplexing this with
clients.
- Accessing sources of video for consumption.
- Generating graphs for audio and video processing.
Nodes in the graph can be implemented as separate processes,
communicating with sockets and exchanging multimedia content using fd
passing.
Building
--------
Pipewire uses the Meson and Ninja build system to compile. If you're not
familiar with these tools, the included "autogen.sh" script will
automatically run the correct meson/ninja commands, and output a Makefile.
It follows that there are two methods to build Pipewire, however both rely
on Meson and Ninja to actually perform the compilation:
$ ./autogen.sh
$ make
or the Meson/Ninja native method:
$ meson build
$ cd build
$ ninja
You can see the available meson options in meson_options.txt file.
