Color global mempools with a special mark. This special marking
is needed for handling memfd-backed pools.
To avoid fd leaks, memfd pools are registered with the connection
pstream to create an ID<->memfd mapping on both PA endpoints.
Such memory regions are then always referenced by their IDs and
never by their fds, and so their fds can be safely closed later.
Unfortunately this scheme cannot work with global pools since the
registration ID<->memfd mechanism needs to happen for each newly
connected client, and thus the need for a more special handling.
That is, for the pool's fd to be always open :-(
Almost all mempools are now created on a per-client basis. The
only exception is the pa_core's mempool which is still shared
between all clients of the system.

Soon we're going to have three types of memory pools: POSIX shm_open()
pools, memfd memfd_create() ones, and privately malloc()-ed pools.
Thus introduce annotations for the memory types supported and change
pa_mempool_new() into a factory method based on required memory.

In future commits, server-wide SHMs will be replaced with per-client
ones that will be dynamically created and freed according to clients
connections open and close.
Meanwhile, current PA design does not guarantee that the per-client
mempool blocks are referenced only by client-specific objects.
Thus reference count the pools and let each memblock inside the pool
itself, or just attached to it, increment the pool's refcount upon
allocation. This way, per-client mempools will only be freed when no
further component in the system holds any references to its blocks.

FSF addresses used in PA sources are no longer valid and rpmlint
generates numerous warnings during packaging because of this.

building PA with -O0 leads to test failure in mix-test on i386
issue reported by Felipe, see
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2014-August/021406.html
the problem is the value 0xbeffbd7f: when byte-swapped it becomes 0x7fbdffbe and according
to IEEE-754 represents a signalling NaN (starting with s111 1111 10, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NaN)
when this value is assigned to a floating point register, it becomes 0x7ffdffbe, representing
a quiet NaN (starting with s111 1111 11) -- a signalling NaN is turned into a quiet NaN!
so PA_FLOAT32_SWAP(PA_FLOAT32_SWAP(x)) != x for certain values, uhuh!
the following test code can be used; due to volatile, it will always demonstrate the issue;
without volatile, it depends on the optimization level (i386, 32-bit, gcc 4.9):
// snip
static inline float PA_FLOAT32_SWAP(float x) {
union {
float f;
uint32_t u;
} t;
t.f = x;
t.u = bswap_32(t.u);
return t.f;
}
int main() {
unsigned x = 0xbeffbd7f;
volatile float f = PA_FLOAT32_SWAP(*(float *)&x);
printf("%08x %08x %08x %f\n", 0xbeffbd7f, *(unsigned *)&f, bswap_32(*(unsigned *)&f), f);
}
// snip
the problem goes away with optimization when no temporary floating point registers are used
the proposed solution is to avoid passing swapped floating point data in a
float; this is done with new functions PA_READ_FLOAT32RE() and PA_WRITE_FLOAT32RE()
which use uint32_t to dereference a pointer and byte-swap the data, hence no temporary
float variable is used
also delete PA_FLOAT32_TO_LE()/_BE(), not used

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.
idea is to allow optimized code path (similar to volume code)
and rework/specialize mixing cases to enable runtime performance improvements
no functionality changes in this patch

Instead of spilling thousands of lines of output, make check now runs the
test-suite in about 100 lines or so. If running under make check, the output of
tests is reduced. The MAKE_CHECK environment variable is used for this, so that
when running the test manually, the full output is still shown. Furthermore,
pa_log is used consistently instead of printf, so that all test output goes to
stderr by default. Colored output from make check goes to stdout.
Get rid of the liboil dependency and reimplement the liboil functions with an
equivalent C implementation. Note that most of these functions are deprecated in
liboil and that none of them had any optimisations. We can further specialize
our handrolled versions for some extra speedups.
