We will just ignore the memblock if this happens. We already have
a check for this in the client library, so this one is just for
security reasons.

Since we don't have "limited" clients, a client that authenticates
correctly is automatically authorized. However, it's the authentication
that can go wrong, rather than the authorization.

The srbchannel is enabled if protocol version >= 30 and
SHM is available. There is also a module parameter
srbchannel=false that can be used for disabling the srbchannel.
The setup is done in these steps:
1) Server receives authentication (like today)
2) Server sends enable_srbchannel to client
3) Server sends memblock to client
4) Client receives enable_srbchannel
5) Client receives memblock
6) Client sends enable_srbchannel back to server
7) Client switches over
8) Server receives enable_srbchannel and switches over

The file descriptors are read from the iochannel just like the creds are.
So instead of passing just creds (and creds_valid), we now pass the
entire pa_ancil struct.

If a relative path is passed to pa_authkey_load(), it will interpret
the path as relative to the home directory. This is wrong, because
relative paths should be interpreted to be relative to the config home
directory. Before fixing pa_authkey_load(), this patch prepares for
the change by using absolute paths when the file actually needs to be
in the home directory (i.e. the fallback cookie path for the native
protocol and the default cookie path for the esound protocol).
As it is implemented, the early request mode can in some cases be counter-productive. The mode is designed to give the client a steady request/report rate of small-ish chunks (A somewhat silly client requirement but at least Flash and Firefox break horribly when you break this.).
Unfortunately PulseAudio does not have any mechanism for telling a sink/source how often it should request/report data. So a more blunt hack was applied where the entire latency is restricted to the fragment size.
So far so good, but where the current code breaks down is when the sink cannot satisfy this tiny latency request. We then "report" to the client what we can guarantee by setting the fragment size to the sink's/source's full buffer size/latency.
This severely changes the resulting buffer attributes from what the client requested, and in practice breaks applications. The most prominent user of this feature is the ALSA plugin, and it doesn't even have a mechanism of adapting to the server giving back something different than what was requested.
So long term, the whole early request mode needs to be implemented in a better way. Either the sink's/source's need to grow the ability to control request/report rate. Or we put some form of timer based emulation in front of them on behalf of these clients.
Short term, we should change the behaviour of what happens when we cannot guarantee a fragment rate. Instead of giving the client really shitty buffering parameters as a result, we should just keep the requested attributes and do things on a best-effort basic. Basically how things would behave if the client didn't have the early request bit at all.
The attached patch does just that, as well as expand on the comment about how the early request thing is implemented.

This makes sure that there is no window between pa_sink/source_new()
and _put() where enumerating sinks/sources causes an assert (several
calls in sink/source_get_info need a linked sink or source).
I think this makes the code a bit nicer to read and write. This also
reduces the chances of off-by-one errors when checking the bounds of
sample rate values.
When setting attribute foo, or in this case the card profile, in my
opinion the thing passed to the set_foo() function should be of the
type of foo, not a string identifier that can be used to search for
the actual foo in set_foo().
This is mostly a question of taste, but there's at least some small
benefit from passing the actual object: often the profile object is
already available when calling pa_card_set_profile(), so passing the
card name would cause unnecessary searching when pa_card_set_profile()
needs to look up the profile from the hashmap.
Since the hashmap stores a pointer to the key provided at pa_hashmap_put()
time, it make sense to allow the hashmap to be given ownership of the key and
have it free it at pa_hashmap_remove/free time.
To do this cleanly, we now provide the key and value free functions at hashmap
creation time with a pa_hashmap_new_full. With this, we do away with the free
function that was provided at remove/free time for freeing the value.
This patch removes all occurrences of double and triple
newlines.
Command used for this:
find . -type d \( -name ffmpeg \) -prune -o \
-regex '\(.*\.[hc]\|.*\.cc\)' \
-a -not -name 'adrian-aec.*' -a -not \
-name reserve.c -a -not -name 'rtkit.*' \
-exec sed -i -e '/^$/{N;s/^\n$//}' {} \;
Two passes were needed to remove triple newlines.
The excluded files are mirrored files from external sources.
This patch replaces every occurrence of ')\n{' with ') {'.

If minreq is not explicitly specified, it was always initialized to
20 ms (DEFAULT_PROCESS_MSEC). However when the total latency is not
much higher than 20 ms, this is way too high. Instead use
tlength/4 as a measure: this will give a decent sink_usec in all
modes (both traditional, adjust latency and early request modes).
This greatly improves PulseAudio's ability to ask for data in time
in low-latency scenarios.

Tlength should never be set higher than maxlength. While this is
corrected by memblockq later, we still need a correct tlength for
the subsequent calculations.

Previously, a drain request was acknowledged up to two hw buffers
too late, causing unnecessary delays.
This implements a new chain of events called process_underrun
which triggers exactly when the sink input has finished playing,
so the drain can be acknowledged quicker.
It could later be improved to give better underrun reporting to
clients too.

The previous patch removed module-gconf's dependency on the userdata
pointer of the free callback, and that was the only place where the
userdata pointer of pa_free2_cb_t was used, so now there's no need for
pa_free2_cb_t in pa_hashmap_free(). Using pa_free_cb_t instead allows
removing a significant amount of repetitive code.
I was looking at a log that showed that a suspend happened (at
a strange time), but the log didn't tell me why the suspend was done.
This patch tries to make sure that that won't happen again.
This includes updating the native protocol and the client API.
A new command was added to allow setting the latency offset.
Also the card list command now shows the latency offset if there
are ports available.
Update protocol to 27.
In practice there is always at least one profile, and I
don't think there will ever be cards without profiles.
Therefore, I added assertions to pa_card_new() stating that
the card new data must always contain at least one profile.
Now a lot of code can be simplified, because it's guaranteed
that the profiles hashmap and the active_profile field are
always non-NULL.
Specifying the volume when creating a new stream is not an
equivalent act as setting the volume with a volume control
application. When creating a new stream, stream-restore
shouldn't save the volume, but when changing the volume,
then saving it is ok. For example, when I say
"paplay --volume=10000 somefile.wav", I mean that I want the
new stream to have volume 10000. I don't mean that also
future paplay invocations (without the --volume option)
should have that same volume.
This patch effectively reverts
546bcf3f2f.
As David points out, the previous commit made a couple of asserts
redundant (the XOR covers all cases that were previous tested for).
Remove these redundant commits now.
Commit 54cddc6ddf removed an assert that
looked redundant but was not. This commit reinstates it in a slightly
modified form. It is not stated as (a ^ b) instead of (!a || !b) in
order to make the condition more obvious.
For some reason, a badly behaving client was trying to set a NULL
port, which caused PulseAudio to crash. Add safeguards on two levels
just to be protected. (Also remove a redundant check.)

This is actually implemented in module-protocol-stub as
'auth-group-enable'. An unfortunate typo because the other argument is
spelt as 'enabled', but it's better to be slightly inconsistent than to
change the public interface.
This adds a boolean module parameter to disable automatic dynamic
latency readjustments on underruns, but leaves automatic dynamic
watermark readjustments untouched.
