There are no behaviour changes, the code from almost all the SET_STATE
handlers is moved with minimal changes to the newly introduced
set_state_in_io_thread() callback. The only exception is module-tunnel,
which has to call pa_sink_render() after pa_sink.thread_info.state has
been updated. The set_state_in_io_thread() callback is called before
updating that variable, so moving the SET_STATE handler code to the
callback isn't possible.
The purpose of this change is to make it easier to get state change
handling right in modules. Hooking to the SET_STATE messages in modules
required care in calling pa_sink/source_process_msg() at the right time
(or not calling it at all, as was the case on resume failures), and
there were a few bugs (fixed before this patch). Now the core takes care
of ordering things correctly.
Another motivation for this change is that there was some talk about
adding a suspend_cause variable to pa_sink/source.thread_info. The
variable would be updated in the core SET_STATE handler, but that would
not work with the old design, because in case of resume failures modules
didn't call the core message handler.
The suspend cause isn't yet used by any of the callbacks. The alsa sink
and source will use it to sync the mixer when the SESSION suspend cause
is removed. Currently the syncing is done in pa_sink/source_suspend(),
and I want to change that, because pa_sink/source_suspend() shouldn't
have any alsa specific code.
This removes the symdef header generation m4 magic in favour of a
simpler macro method, allowing us to skip one unnecessary build step
while moving to meson, and removing an 11 year old todo!
When a stream is created, and the stream creator specifies which device
should be used, that can affect automatic routing policies.
Specifically, module-device-manager shouldn't apply its priority list
routing when a stream has been routed by the application that created
the stream.
A stream that was initially routed by the application may be moved for
some valid reason (e.g. user requesting a move, or the original device
disappearing). When the stream is moved away from its initial device,
the "device requested by application" flag isn't relevant any more, so
it's set to false and never reset to true again.
The change in module-device-manager's routing logic will be done in the
following patch.
When a filter is loaded and module-switch-on-connect is present, switch-on-connect
will make the filter the default sink or source and move streams from the old
default to the filter. This is done from the sink/source put hook, therefore streams
are moved to the filter before the module init function of the filter calls
sink_input_put() or source_output_put(). The move succeeds because the asyncmsq
already points to the queue of the master sink or source. When the master sink or
source is attached to the sink input or source output, the attach callback will call
pa_{sink,source}_attach_within_thread(). These functions assume that all streams
are detached. Because streams were already moved to the filter by switch-on-connect,
this assumption leads to an assertion in pa_{sink_input,source_output}_attach().
This patch fixes the problem by reverting the order of the pa_{sink,source}_put()
calls and the pa_{sink_input,source_output}_put calls and creating the sink input
or source output corked. The initial rewind that is done for the master sink is
moved to the sink message handler. The order of the unlink calls is swapped as well
to prevent that the filter appears to be moving during module unload.
The patch also seems to improve user experience, the move of a stream to the filter
sink is now done without any audible interruption on my system.
The patch is only tested for module-echo-cancel.
Bug-Link: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100065
Several virtual sources and sinks apart from module-echo-cancel also query the master
sink or source to estimate the current latency. Those modules might potentially show
the bug that is described for module-echo-cancel in bug 100277.
This patch checks in the message handlers for the PA_{SINK,SOURCE}_MESSAGE_GET_LATENCY
if the master sink or source is valid and returns 0 as latency if not. This is however
not yet sufficient to solve the issue. Additional patches will follow.
The reported latency of source or sink is based on measured initial conditions.
If the conditions contain an error, the estimated latency values may become negative.
This does not indicate that the latency is indeed negative but can be considered
merely an offset error. The current get_latency_in_thread() calls and the
implementations of the PA_{SINK,SOURCE}_MESSAGE_GET_LATENCY messages truncate negative
latencies because they do not make sense from a physical point of view. In fact,
the values are truncated twice, once in the message handler and a second time in
the pa_{source,sink}_get_latency_within_thread() call itself.
This leads to two problems for the latency controller within module-loopback:
- Truncating leads to discontinuities in the latency reports which then trigger
unwanted end to end latency corrections.
- If a large negative port latency offsets is set, the reported latency is always 0,
making it impossible to control the end to end latency at all.
This patch is a pre-condition for solving these problems.
It adds a new flag to pa_{sink,source}_get_latency_within_thread() to allow
negative return values. Truncating is also removed in all implementations of the
PA_{SINK,SOURCE}_MESSAGE_GET_LATENCY message handlers. The allow_negative flag
is set to false for all calls of pa_{sink,source}_get_latency_within_thread()
except when used within PA_{SINK,SOURCE}_MESSAGE_GET_LATENCY. This means that the
original behavior is not altered in most cases. Only if a positive latency offset
is set and the message returns a negative value, the reported latency is smaller
because the values are not truncated twice.
Additionally let PA_SOURCE_MESSAGE_GET_LATENCY return -pa_sink_get_latency_within_thread()
for monitor sources because the source gets the data before it is played.
If pa_sink_input_cork() or pa_source_output_cork() were called without a sink
or source attached, the calls would crash pulseaudio.
This patch fixes the problem, so that a source output or sink input can still
be corked or uncorked while source or sink are invalid. This is needed to
correct the corking logic in module-loopback.
FSF addresses used in PA sources are no longer valid and rpmlint
generates numerous warnings during packaging because of this.
This patch changes all FSF addresses to FSF web page according to
the GPL how-to: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
Done automatically by sed-ing through sources.
These are not used for anything at this point, but this
makes it easy to add ad-hoc debug prints that show the
memblockq name and to convert between bytes and usecs.
We want to set the volume callbacks only if volume sharing
is not used. When volume sharing is used, we don't want to
mess with the stream volumes.
This was broken in 6c6b50
This is not currently useful but future commits will make further
changes concerning automatic setting of flags and event delivery
that makes this structure necessary.
This is the beginning of work to support compressed formats natively in
PulseAudio. This adds a pa_stream_new_extended() that takes a format
structure, sends it to the server (=> protocol extension) and has the
server negotiate with the appropropriate sink to figure out what format
it should use.
This is work in progress, and works only with PCM streams. Actual
compressed format support in some sink needs to be implemented, and
extensive testing is required.
More details on how this is supposed to work is available at:
http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/PassthroughSupport
(Based on Colin's review) We mark modules as being autoloaded so that
they can handle this as a special case if needed (which is required by
module-echo-cancel for now). This inverts how things were done and makes
using these modules manually less error-prone.
Mostly warnings about unused stuff.
Furthermore, the first hunk is a fix for the change in 177948a6.
Finally, comment in AEC_dtd was translated and the code simplified slightly.

If the virtual sink is moved to a new master right after it has been created,
then the virtual sink input's memblockq can be rewound to a negative read
index. The data written prior to the move starts from index zero, so after the
rewind there's a bit of silence. If the memblockq doesn't have a silence
memchunk set, then pa_memblockq_peek() will return zero in such case, and the
returned memchunk's memblock pointer will be NULL.
That scenario wasn't taken into account in the implementation of
sink_input_pop_cb. Setting a silence memchunk for the memblockq solves this
problem, because pa_memblock_peek() will now return a valid memblock if the
read index happens to point to a hole in the memblockq.
I believe this isn't the best possible solution, though. It doesn't really make
sense to rewind the sink input's memblockq beyond index 0 in the first place,
because now when the stream starts to play to the new master sink, there's some
unnecessary silence before the actual data starts. This is a small problem,
though, and I don't grok the rewinding system well enough to know how to fix
this issue properly.
I went through all files that call pa_memblockq_peek() to see if there are more
similar bugs. play-memblockq.c was the only one that looked to me like it might
be broken in the same way. I didn't try reproducing the bug with
play-memblockq.c, though, so I just added a FIXME comment there.
This change doesn't add any functionality in itself, but it will be useful in
the future for operating on chains of sinks or sources that are piggy-backing
on each other.
For example, the PA_PROP_DEVICE_MASTER_DEVICE property could
be handled in the core so that each virtual device doesn't have to maintain it
separately. By using the origin_sink and destination_source pointers the core
is able to see at stream creation time that the stream is created by a virtual
device, and then update that device's property list using the name of the
master device that the stream is being connected to. The same thing can be done
also when the stream is being moved from a device to another, in which case the
_MASTER_DEVICE property needs updating.
