This change prepares for adding a doxygen target to the Meson build
system. The DOXYGEN_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY substitution variable is needed so
that the output will go to the build directory. I also replaced @srcdir@
with @top_srcdir@. I think it looks cleaner, since the ".." parent
directory traversal is avoided. It also happened to make writing the
Meson rules easier.
Pipewire has started shipping copies of PulseAudio's ALSA card profiles.
It would be useful if both projects could share the same profiles and
this patch is a step toward that.
In some cases, the I/O connector functionality can be shared
and we cannot determine the proper purpose automatically.
We just know that something was inserted to the jack.
Introduce a group identifier (a simple string - unique
per group) which helps to determine the proper ports
for the application. The user interface may be used
to set the wanted behaviour.

Prior to commits f899d5f466 and
f62a49b8cf, GNOME's sound settings
overwrote the routing for all entries in the stream-restore database
when selecting a device. Now we prevent that from happening (see the
aforementioned commits), but the old overwritten settings can still be in
the database after updating to PulseAudio 14.0, and they can cause
problems, as documented here:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/issues/832
We can't distinguish between devices set by GNOME's sound settings
and devices set by the user, so this patch discards all old device
settings, even though that is going to cause PulseAudio to forget routing
settings for many users. This is less bad than keeping the incorrect
routing settings in the database, because it's difficult for users to
figure out how to fix the situation when e.g. speaker test tones go to
the internal speakers no matter what device is selected as the default,
whereas old manual configuration can be restored restored by doing the
manual configuration again. Also, it's probably more common to have at
some point changed the default device in GNOME's sound settings than it
is to have any manual per-stream routing settings.
This is disabled by default, because this causes data loss, but
distributions that use GNOME are recommended to enable this with
the --enable-stream-restore-clear-old-devices (Autotools) or
-Dstream-restore-clear-old-devices=true (Meson) build option.

This adds a GStreamer-based RTP implementation to replace our own. The
original implementation is retained for cases where it is not possible
to include GStreamer as a dependency.
The idea with this is to be able to start supporting more advanced RTP
features such as RTCP, non-PCM audio, and potentially synchronised
playback.

We've added new API and updated an enum. A bunch of function parameters
have been marked as const, but this probably shouldn't count as a change
anyway.
The original atomic implementation in pulseaudio based on
libatomic stated that the intent was to use full memory barriers.
According to [1], the load and store implementation based on
gcc builtins matches sequential consistent (i.e. full memory barrier)
load and store ordering only for x86.
I observed random crashes in client applications using memfd srbchannel
transport on an armv8-aarch64 platform (cortex-a57).
In all those crashes the first read on the pstream descriptor
(the size field) was wrong and looked like it contained old data.
I boiled the relevant parts of the srbchannel implementation down to
a simple test case and could observe random test failures.
So I figured that the atomic implementation was broken for armv8
with respect to cross-cpu memory access ordering consistency.
In order to come up with a minimal fix, I used the newer
__atomic_load_n/__atomic_store_n builtins from gcc.
With
aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc (Linaro GCC 7.3-2018.05) 7.3.1 20180425
they compile to
ldar and stlxr on arm64, which is correct according to [1] and [2].
The other atomic operations based on __sync builtins don't need
to be touched since they already are of the full memory barrier
variety.

This flag results in calls to (at least) isfinite() and isnan() becoming
skipped, and a constant false returned. This caused volume-test to fail
on Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=916504
Since PulseAudio deals with negative infinities with volume dB values,
this is not a problem only in volume-test. We shouldn't use -ffast-math
at all.
The recent change in ALSA upstream stripped -I$include/alsa path from
pkgconfig. We already fixed for this change in some places but still
the code for UCM was overlooked, and this resulted in the unresolved
symbols in alsa card module. Fix them as well.

The old minimum version was set in commit 57e3ccaf51 based on what the
commit author happened to have installed at the time. Russell Treleaven
now confirmed that Debian 8's gettext version, 0.19.3, works fine too,
or at least PulseAudio builds without errors. There might be room to
lower the required version even further, but that requires someone to
test older gettext versions.
This allows us to disable automatically updating build system files in
case things change. This is desirable in the common case, but not
necessarily for CI, where we want the ability to take a build directory
as an artifact from one stage to the next (i.e. into a fresh checkout).
It is helpful to improve reproducibility build [1] since
PA_SRCDIR/PA_BUILDDIR contains build path,
--disable-running-from-build-tree could drop these macros at
precompilation.

BlueZ 4 is no longer supported by BlueZ community for a long long time,
also by moving to BlueZ 5 it should make it even more clearer that
BlueZ 4 is no longer an option.
A new paprefs release is expected soon, and it will only support
GSettings. In order to have the default configuration work with the new
paprefs version, we need to enable GSettings by default.
If both module-gconf and module-gsettings are enabled when building
PulseAudio, both modules will be part of the default configuration. That
can cause trouble, because when the GConf database is migrated to
GSettings, the old configuration in GConf is not removed, so both
module-gconf and module-gsettings will try to load modules.
Generally it's not necessary to have both modules enabled even at build
time, so let's default to having only one of them enabled.
This also makes the module-gconf section conditional on HAVE_GCONF,
because if only gsettings support is built, the gconf section in the
configuration file would be redundant and confusing.
GConf is deprecated, and distributions are removing it. paprefs depends
on GConf, so in order to avoid paprefs getting removed as well, paprefs
has to be changed to use something else than GConf. GSettings is the
easiest alternative to migrate to, although it has the same problems
that GConf had: no support for system mode or networking.
This patch takes the non-GConf specific code from module-gconf and puts
it in stdin-util.[ch], which is then reused by module-gsettings.
module-gsettings is designed to be very similar to module-gconf.
Migration is expected to happen as follows: Distributions update
PulseAudio and paprefs at the same time, or first PulseAudio and then
paprefs. paprefs depends on module-gsettings, and module-gsettings
conflicts with module-gconf. Therefore module-gconf gets automatically
removed during the paprefs update. After the update an old PulseAudio is
likely to be running with module-gconf loaded. If the user tries to use
paprefs during this period, whatever the user does in paprefs won't have
any effect until PulseAudio is restarted (probably by a reboot or
relogin). This is not ideal, but will have to do.
When module-gsettings is loaded, it runs gsettings-data-convert
(implemented in a later patch). That will copy the settings from GConf
to GSettings. If gsettings-data-convert is not available (it's part of
GConf, so it may have already been uninstalled), then any previous
paprefs settings are lost.
glibc 2.27 is to be released soon, and it will provide memfd_create().
If glibc provides the function, we must not define it ourselves,
otherwise building fails due to conflict between the two implementations
of the same function.

Usually PulseAudio is built with a linker that supports the -z,now
option, and that option should have the same effect (i.e. the dynamic
linker resolves all symbols when the program is started) as re-execing
with the LD_BIND_NOW environment variable set, so usually the re-execing
is redundant.

The get_cpuid() function in cpu-x86.c was buggy on x86-64. When building
without optimizations, the homegrown assembly code overwrote the
beginning of the function argument list on the stack. That happened to
work fine on regular x86-64, but caused crashing with the x32 ABI.
At least GCC and clang provide cpuid.h, which has the __get_cpuid()
function that can be used instead of the homegrown assembly.
The PA_REG_* constants can be removed as well, because they're not used
any more.

This avoids the following autoconf warning:
configure.ac:89: warning: AC_COMPILE_IFELSE was called before AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS
../../lib/autoconf/specific.m4:368: AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS is expanded from...
configure.ac:89: the top level
The current build script hardcodes the $pkglibdir in the padsp command.
This works and is a reasonable default. However, distributions that
know where they install, can override this path and thus make padsp
work for any architecture that has the library installed by using the
following configure argument:
--with-pulsedsp-location='/usr/\\$$LIB/pulseaudio'
This works because ld.so considers $LIB a variable that will expand to
several location paths, depending on the architecture of the binary
being executed.
In debian, for example, this would work for libpulsedsp.so installed in
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ for amd64 and /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ for
i386, with a single padsp command.
Any compiler flags should be set before asking the compiler to check for
thread-local storage with AX_TLS, since compiler flags (in this case
-mmacosx-version-min=10.5) can influence the outcome of that check.
The module doesn't build any more[1], and when starting to investigate
the build failure, I asked the module author if he'd know something
about the breakage. He said that he didn't know about backward
compatibility problems with libxen, but more importantly, he said that
the module probably doesn't have any users[2]. It doesn't make sense to
keep maintaining a module that doesn't have users, so let's drop it.

Although such 9.0 clients support memfd transport, they have an
iochannel bug that would break memfd audio if they're run in 32
bit mode over a 64-bit kernel. Influence them to use the POSIX

Also bump the protocol version to exclusively mark such v9.0
libraries. Check commit 451d1d6762 for further details.

Per glibc feature_test_macros(7), setting compiler flags to
-std=c11 (or any c* variant like c99) enforces strict ANSI
mode.
Enforcing strict ANSI makes all declarations under _GNU_SOURCE
unavailable. This leads to build warnings in the form of:
warning: implicit declaration of function ‘syscall’

Memfd is a simple memory sharing mechanism, added by the systemd/kdbus
developers, to share pages between processes in an anonymous, no global
registry needed, no mount-point required, relatively secure, manner.
This patch introduces the necessary building blocks for using memfd
shared memory transfers in PulseAudio.
Memfd support shall also help us in laying out the necessary (but not
yet sufficient) groundwork for application sandboxing, protecting PA
from its clients, and protecting clients data from each other.
We plan to exclusively use memfds, instead of POSIX SHM, on the way
forward.

This is needed for building with anonymous unions. A bunch of calls to
fail() that used to mysteriously work need fixing -- fail() is a macro
that takes a printf-style message as an argument. Not passing this
somehow worked with the previous compiler flags, but breaks with
-std=c11.
