Original commit message from CVS: - added playondemand plugin by Leif Morgan Johnson <lmjohns3@eos.ncsu.edu> - some fixes to int2float - aplied a patch from wrobell <wrobell@ite.pl> that is a first attempt at making automake 1.5 happy (gst now requires automake1.5). It's still not perfect but it builds. - Made the schedulers plugable. The default scheduler now lives inside a plugin. - Added a new mpeg1/2 parser/demuxer. - Fixed some compiler warnings in the core libs. - substantial work to GstThread (hopefully less race conditions). simplified the code in GstThread a bit. A state change can now also happen in the thread context. - reworked the state semantics of a bin. it'll now automatically get the highest state of its children. - the autoplugger now nests the threads so that a state change failure of one thread doesn't make its upstream thread lock. - GstQueue refuses to go to PLAYING if the sinkpad is not connected. This way the queue will not wedge in the _get lock. - GstQueue unlocks its mutexes when going to PAUSED. - make sure that when all elements in a bin/thread go to PAUSED, the bin is set to PAUSED too. - make a parent bin wait for its children to PAUSE before ending the iteration with FALSE (EOS) - Some changes to GstPlay to deal with EOS. - aplied the latest patch from Zeenix to gstrtp. end result: GstPlay doesn't crash on EOS and the pipeline is now shut down properly.

Changed the way things are scheduled, especially sources. A Src used to have a push() function, and optionally a pus... Original commit message from CVS: Changed the way things are scheduled, especially sources. A Src used to have a push() function, and optionally a pushregion() to deal with async reads, etc. That whole thing has gone away, in favor of providing a pull() function for the output (Src) pad instead, ala chain functions. This makes constructing cothreaded schedules out of non-loop elements somewhat easier. Basically there was always a question as to which pad was being dealt with. In the pullregion case, cothread-specific data was used to try to pass the region struct to the right place, which is a slow hack. And in general, the push function severely limited the kind of tricks that could be played when there's more than one output pad, such as a multi-out file reader with async capabilities on each pad independently. This changes the way cothread scheduling occurs. Instead of the hack to deal with Src's by calling their push() function (or optionally the pushregion(), in certain cases), we now are working towards a general mechanism where pads are the only thing that are dealt with directly. An optimization was made in the process of doing this: the loopfunction actually run as the outer [stack] frame of the cothread is now set more intelligently in create_plan() based on what kind of element it is. We now have: loopfunc_wrapper: used for loop-based elements, it simply calls the loopfunc in a loop, paying attention to COTHREAD_STOPPING (see below). It currently does other, soon to be depracated, stuff. pullsrc_wrapper: wraps a Src that's not loop-based (since your options are now loop- or pull-based) There will be a couple more to deal with other cases, such as Connections and chain-based elements. The general idea is that it's a lot more efficient to make the decisions once in create_plan than to keep doing this huge if/else chain in the wrapper. Just choose the right wrapper up front. It'll be most apparent performance-wise in the case of whichever element context is switched to first for each iteration, since the whole wrapper setup is done for every iteration. The tricky part is that there is now a bit of overloading of the function pointers in a pad. The current meanings (possibly to change a bit more soon) are: chainfunc: as always, chainfunc pointer is mirrored between peer pads (this may change, and the chain func may end up in pushfunc) pushfunc: SrcPad: gst_pad_pushfunc_proxy, cothread_switch to peer SinkPad: none (may take over chainfunc, see below) pullfunc: SrcPad: Src or Connection's function to construct buffers SinkPad: gst_pad_pullfunc_proxy, cothread_switch to peer There are a number of issues remaining with the scheduling, not the least of which is the fact that Connections are still dealt with the old way, with _push() functions and such. I'm trying to figure out a way to unify the system so it makes sense. Following the scheduling system is hard enough, trying to change it is murder. Another useful scheduling addition, mentioned above, is COTHREAD_STOPPING. It's an element flag that's used to signal whatever code is running in cothread context that it should be finishing up and exiting soon. An example of this is in plugins/cobin/spindentity.c. All the loops should now be composed of do/while loops, rather than while(1) loops: do { buf = gst_pad_pull(spindentity->sinkpad); gst_pad_push(spindentity->srcpad,buf); } while (!GST_ELEMENT_IS_COTHREAD_STOPPING(element)); The reason for this is that COTHREAD_STOPPING may be set before the above loop ever gets started. It wouldn't do for the body of the loop to never once get called, that would simply stall the pipeline. Note that only the core library code is ever responsible for setting and unsetting this flag. All elements have to do is respond to it by cleanly exiting the loop and the function holding it. This is needed primarily to allow iterations to occur properly. Basically, there's a single entry point in the cothread scheduling loop, gst_bin_iterate_func() simply switches to this cothread. If the element in this context is allowed to loop infinitely, nothing would even switch back to the context from which the iterate() was originally called. This is a bit of a problem. The solution is for there to be an implicit switch back to the originating context. Now, even I'm not sure exactly how this works, but if the cothread that's switched to actually returns, execution returns back to the calling context, i.e. iterate_func(). COTHREAD_STOPPING is therefore set just before switching into this (currently randomly chosen) context, on the assumption that it will return promptly after finishing its duties. The burden of clearing the flag falls to the various wrapper functions provided by the Bin code, thus element writers don't have to worry about doing that at all (and simply shouldn't). Related changes: All the sources in elements/ have been changed to reflect the new system. FIXMEs: 1) gstpipeline.c calls gst_src_push at some point, dunno why, it's commented out now. 2) any other sources, including vcdsrc, dvdsrc, and v4lsrc will break badly and need to be modified to work as pull-based sources.
