The "rm" basm constraint doesn't work with my version of gcc (4.5.2),
not even in a simple example. Since we usually only have 5 registers
available on i386, force it to be memory on that architecture.

Passing a NULL-terminated array of pa_format_info pointers is a bit
unwieldy for clients. Instead of this, let's pass in an array of
pointers and the number of elements in the array.
We were calculating new latency based on the latency set on the old
sink/source, rather than the actual latency requested by the client.
Over a series of moves, this will lead the latency being ~halved each
time, resulting in an eventual rewind flood from a latency that cannot
be handled.
We were using the block size in bytes instead of samples, which meant
preprocessing was broken. This fix makes a large-ish difference in the
quality of echo-cancellation with speex.
The smoother is paused on initialization and resumed when the sink
state is set to running. Otherwise, early latency estimates are
too low since there is some delay between module initialization and
entering the running state.
After the smoother is initially resumed, it is paused when the sink
state is not running. The previous behavior was to pause only when
the sink enters suspended state, however, this would lead to large
errors in latency estimates after the sink has been idle for some
time.
Add a variable to track whether the actual volume is set or not.
Suppose this:
min volume: -126 max volume: 0
then when user wants to set some constant volume to -10, it would fail.
While the alsa values are typically positive, some values are "funky"
and have negative values. It is desirable to fix this at the alsa
level so that the numbers are positive, but it's not technically
invalid, and thus we have to support it.

If module initialisation fails, the speex done() function might try to
free a value that's not been allocated yet. Adding protection for this
condition.
The echo suppress attenuation value was being incorrectly modified.
Fixed and added 2 arguments to change the attenuation of the residual
echo filter. Default values of the speex preprocessor will be used when
omitted.
This allows the selective enabling of speex' preprocessing algorithms
before running the echo-canceller -- for now this includes automatic
gain control, noise suppression and echo suppression. It's all off by
default for now, though at some point in the near future we might want
to enable at least denoising by default.
The denoising works pretty well, though we might want to add a way to
tweak the noise-suppression knob that libspeex provides.
The AGC option is just a stop-gap -- we need a real AGC mechanism that
tweaks the source volume rather than doing this in software.
The speex documentation mentions VAD and dereverb, but it appears that
these are not complete yet.
We don't do all this in a separate module from module-echo-cancel to
avoid the overhead of adding another virtual source. It makes more sense
to make a separate virtual source module that can be used for cases
where preprocessing is useful but AEC is not (for e.g. noise suppression
for fan noise in a recording application).
Another reason to keep this integrated with the AEC module is that the
echo suppression bits use the speex echo canceller state. This does leak
some information about the AEC implementation into module-echo-cancel,
but this is unavoidable.
Linking libpulse with gold or when using ld --no-add-needed fails
as libpulse uses dbus methods directly but isn't explicitly linked to it.
So link to it when needed :)
The proplist used may never be freed if an error condition was found with
CHECK_VALIDITY macro and the formats idxset was never freed regardless
of error state.
This change fixes adds a new maco CHECK_VALIDITY_GOTO() which allows
for cleanup to be done before returning.
In a setup with one or more filter sinks or sources there is always at
least one stream existing. In such a situation normal mempool
vacuuming never happens. This patch causes suspend-on-idle module to
vacuum memory when ever it notices that all sinks and sources are
suspended. The behavior can be enabled with a module parameter.
