Only two uses of unsafely setting the pad functions is left:
- fallbacksrc for overriding the chain function of the proxy pad of a
ghost pad
- threadshare for overriding the pad functions after creationg, which
probably needs some fixing at some point
Since those are using the clock for sync, they need to also
provide a clock for good measure. The reason is that even if
downstream elements provide a clock, we don't want to have
that clock selected because it might not be running yet.
Pad{Src,Sink}[Ref] delegate some functions to their respective
Pad{Src,Sink}Inner. Since they act as smart pointers, we can
safely implement the Deref trait to simplify the implementations.
StateMachines are spawned on a runtime::Context which uses a tokio
runtime. The StateMachine doesn't need all the features from tokio
such as the IO and timers drivers.
This commit makes use of a light-weight futures executor to spawn
the StateMachines.
When initializing Pad functions in `Pad{Src,Sink}`, we downgrade the
`Pad{Src,Sink}` and upgrade it when necessary. This was implemented
to avoid reference cycles:
`gst::Pad` -> pad function -> `Pad{Src,Sink}` -> `gst::Pad`.
Since `Pad{Src,Sink}` reset the pad functions when dropping, there is
no cycles, so we can use an `Arc<Pad{Src,Sink}>` in the pad functions,
thus saving an `upgrade`.
This is similar to what the standard jitterbuffer does, and
is necessary to avoid deadlocks with the rtpbin session lock,
if the user calls onto any API that requires us to take the
state lock at the wrong time (eg setting the latency property,
clearing the pt map)
They're actually used as a hackish intrusive list around GQueue so using
a different allocator is rather dangerous. Or rather, this is generally
dangerous and shouldn't be done but ...
Also make sure to free items manually in finalize() so that any
contained buffers can also be unreffed.
We don't want to run it every time a strong reference is dropped but
only at the very end. Otherwise dropping the socket stream will cause a
panic because the socket itself is still running.
This can only happen if the receiver is dropped, which only happens when
the task is stopped. As such, Flushing should be returned instead of
panicking.
This should start making navigating the tree a little easier to start
with, and we can then move to allowing building specific groups of
plugins as well.
The plugins are moved into the following hierarchy:
audio
/ gst-plugin-audiofx
/ gst-plugin-claxon
/ gst-plugin-csound
/ gst-plugin-lewton
generic
/ gst-plugin-file
/ gst-plugin-sodium
/ gst-plugin-threadshare
net
/ gst-plugin-reqwest
/ gst-plugin-rusoto
utils
/ gst-plugin-fallbackswitch
/ gst-plugin-togglerecord

/ gst-plugin-cdg
/ gst-plugin-closedcaption
