This adds volume scaling for 1- and 2-channel software volume scaling
using Orc. While testing the MMX and SSE backends on a Core2, I see an
~2x performance benefit over the hand-rolled MMX and SSE code. Since I
haven't been able to test on other architectures, the Orc code is only
used when MMX/SSE* is present. This can be changed in the future after
testing on AMD and ARM machines.
The check whether POSIX socket.h or WIN32 winsock2.h must be included can be
made centrally. The downside is that some functionality of e.g. arpa/inet.h is
also implemented in winsock.h, so that some files that don't use socket
functions, but do use inet.h functions, must also include pulsecore/socket.h.
(as well as arpa/inet.h)
Instead <pulsecore/poll.h> should be included. That file includes poll.h on
platform where it is appropriate. Also remove some unnecessary <ioctl.h>
includes.
This retains CPU information (processor type and supported features) in
pa_core, so that this information can be used by modules at init time to
figure out what optimisations may be used.
Lennart,
Apparently I was debugging this at the same time as you. I can't figure out
why my Fedora 11 install with glibc-2.10 has a glibc realpath that doesn't
match the gnu documentation and returns null. But it does.
Your commit aa8ce5bb9b almost fixed my
problem, but it needs a tweak.
Thanks,
David Yoder
There are multiple package management systems out there which implement
packages using symlinks. The recent (otherwise useful) check to ensure that
a re-executed pulseaudio is actually reexecuting itself unfortunately breaks
in the presence of all these packaging systems, because PA_BINARY refers
to its installed location (e.g. /usr/local/bin/pulseaudio), which is a
symlink to the binary (e.g. /usr/local/stow/pulseaudio-0.9.18/bin/pulseaudio),
because /proc/self/exe always contains the canonical path of the executable,
with all symlinks resolved.
(At least one distribution uses a symlink-based packaging system, so
will be forced to apply this locally in any case.)
The fix is simple: canonicalize PA_BINARY before equality-testing. (This
should be completely safe, because the OS does just that when PA_BINARY
is executed.)
The patch is against 0.9.18, but applies without fuzz to current master.
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.
Since Fedora does not enable OSS output support at all, but still uses
padsp, and in Gentoo we could also make use of padsp without OSS output
support, split the two things in two parameters, although they both check
for sys/soundcard.h once.
Instead of trying to re-execute pulseaudio itself with LD_BIND_NOW set,
just find the correct flag for the linker to request immediate bindings
(all ELF files support that option), and use that when linking the daemon.
Reduce the amount of compiled and executed code as well.
Move the mainloop to monotonic based time events.
Introduces 4 helper functions:
pa_{context,core}_rttime_{new,restart}(), that fill correctly a
timeval with the rtclock flag set if the mainloop supports it.
Both mainloop-test and mainloop-test-glib works with rt and timeval
based time events. PulseAudio and clients should be fully functional.
This patch has received several iterations, and this one as been
largely untested.
