This has the same function as the negotiate() functions in various other
base classes and is required to be able to completely re-implement
submit_input_buffer() in subclasses.
When we do not have any information about DTSs we shouldn't try to make
them up, moreover after seeking `segment->start` has nothing to do with
the next buffer timing (and is probably after the actual buffer timestamp)
and since, since fa8312472f
we do:
```
if (buffer->dts > buffer->dts)
buffer->pts = buffer->dts
```
we end up setting `buffer->pts = segment->start` which is plain
broken and leads to downstream decoder accept the first buffer
as it will be inside the segment (its pts==segment->start) which
basically means accurate seeking behaves mostly the same way as
keyframe seeks.
Fixes https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/issues/492
We were checking to make sure the buffer's DTS wouldn't be after its
PTS. However, the check would also trigger when DTS is NONE, which is
e.g. in the case of some broken cameras.
Fixes#470
If, for example, we are accumulating rounding errors from the buffer
duration when calculating the PTS/DTS, it can happen that the buffer
thinks it should be presented before it's decoded. In that case we just
clamp the DTS.

The virtual method named `get_caps` in both `GstBaseSrc` and
`GstBaseSink` has a `filter` parameter which can be `NULL` (the
default implementation in GstBaseSrc already considers the case).
Before this commit, there was no gtk-doc annotation representing this
fact, which caused the corresponding entry in the GIR file to also
miss this fact.
This caused bugs in other places, such inducing the Vala compiler to
introduce a wrongly assert on `(filter != NULL)` in every
implementation of the `get_caps` method implemented in Vala.
By passing NULL to `g_signal_new` instead of a marshaller, GLib will
actually internally optimize the signal (if the marshaller is available
in GLib itself) by also setting the valist marshaller. This makes the
signal emission a bit more performant than the regular marshalling,
which still needs to box into `GValue` and call libffi in case of a
generic marshaller.
Note that for custom marshallers, one would use
`g_signal_set_va_marshaller()` with the valist marshaller instead.
Otherwise it can happen that we start waiting for another pad, while one
pad already has events that can be handled and potentially also a buffer
that can be handled. That buffer would then however not be accessible by
the subclass from GstAggregator::get_next_time() as there would be the
events in front of it, which doesn't allow the subclass then to
calculate the next time based on already available buffers.
As a side-effect this also allows removing the duplicated event handling
code in the aggregate function as we'll always report pads as not ready
when there is a serialized event or query at the top of at least one
pad's queue.
Fixes https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/issues/428
The documentation says that this allows the subclass to signal that it
needs more data before it can decide on caps, so let's actually
implement it that way.
This is similar to what demuxers do, and necessary when multiple
sinks get seeked downstream of the aggregator: if we forward
duplicated seeks upstream, elements such as demuxers may drop
the flushing seeks, but return TRUE, aggregator then waits forever
for the flushing events.
Fixes#276
When passing "sink_%d" twice to aggregator before it would create two
pads called "sink_0", because it failed to parse "%d" as integer and
used 0 instead then.
Instead validate that parsing was actually successful and also don't
even try to parse if the requested pad name contains a '%'.
This was a misguided effort to try and guarantee the buffers of
the sink pads would not change during aggregate, when an upstream
branch is seeked independently, however this is simply incorrect
as downstream has not necessarily been flushed, or the aggregate
function might be waiting to receive buffers on other pads.
In !159 , we switched to sending flush_start ourselves from the
do_seek implementation. If no flushing seek successfully made its
way upstream, we need to send flush_stop ourselves as well.
Releasing a GRecMutex from a different thread is undefined
behaviour.
There should be no reason to hold the stream lock from the
moment aggregator receives a flush_start until it receives
the last flush_stop: the source pad task is stopped, and can
only be restarted once the last flush_stop has arrived.
I can only speculate as to the reason why this was done,
as it was that way since the original commit. My best
guess is that aggregator originally didn't marshall events
and queries to the aggregate thread, and this somehow
helped work around this.
Instead of tracking "pending_flush_*" on the pads and the
aggregator, we now simply track the last seqnum for flush start
and flush stop events on the pads, and use it to determine whether
we should enter or exit our flushing state.

Since we started depending on GLib 2.44, we can be sure this macro is
defined (it will be a no-op on compilers that don't support it). For
plugins we should just start using `G_DECLARE_FINAL_TYPE` which means
we no longer need the macro there, but for most types in core we don't
want to break ABI, which means it's better to just keep it like it is
(and use the `#ifdef` instead).
Not that it matters, since we don't check the return value
anyway. Unclear why the aggregator pad flush function should
have a return value at all really, and perhaps it should be
called reset anyway. Spotted by dv on irc.

The signal will be emitted when a buffer was consumed on
a pad, if the newly-added "emit-signals" property has been
set to TRUE.
Handlers connected to the signal will receive a valid reference on
the consumed buffer, allowing for example the retrieval of metas in
order to forward them once an output buffer is pushed out.

baseparse internally uses a 64kb buffer for pulling data from upstream.
If a 64kb pull is failing with a short read, it would previously pull
again the requested size.
Doing so is not only inefficient but also seems to cause problems with
some elements (rawvideoparse) where the second pull would fail with EOS.
Short reads are only allowed in GStreamer at EOS.

This is exposed as a solution to the use case of plugging in
sources with a higher latency after the aggregator has started
playing with an initial set of sources, allowing to avoid resyncing.

Add new GST_API_EXPORT in config.h and use that for GST_*_API
decorators instead of GST_EXPORT.
The right export define depends on the toolchain and whether
we're using -fvisibility=hidden or not, so it's better to set it
to the right thing directly than hard-coding a compiler whitelist
in the public header.
We put the export define into config.h instead of passing it via the
command line to the compiler because it might contain spaces and brackets
and in the autotools scenario we'd have to pass that through multiple
layers of plumbing and Makefile/shell escaping and we're just not going
to be *that* lucky.
The export define is only used if we're compiling our lib, not by external
users of the lib headers, so it's not a problem to put it into config.h
Also, this means all .c files of libs need to include config.h
to get the export marker defined, so fix up a few that didn't
include config.h.
This commit depends on a common submodule commit that makes gst-glib-gen.mak
add an #include "config.h" to generated enum/marshal .c files for the
autotools build.

For each lib we build export its own API in headers when we're
building it, otherwise import the API from the headers.
This fixes linker warnings on Windows when building with MSVC.
The problem was that we had defined all GST_*_API decorators
unconditionally to GST_EXPORT. This was intentional and only
supposed to be temporary, but caused linker warnings because
we tell the linker that we want to export all symbols even
those from externall DLLs, and when the linker notices that
they were in external DLLS and not present locally it warns.
What we need to do when building each library is: export
the library's own symbols and import all other symbols. To
this end we define e.g. BUILDING_GST_FOO and then we define
the GST_FOO_API decorator either to export or to import
symbols depending on whether BUILDING_GST_FOO is set or not.
That way external users of each library API automatically
get the import.

And make use of it in the typefind element. It's useful to distinguish
between the different errors why typefinding can fail, and especially to
not consider GST_FLOW_FLUSHING as an actual error.

And make use of that in the typefind element to also be able to make use
of the extension in push mode. It previously only did that in pull mode

gst_base_transform_transform_caps can return NULL in various conditions
thus we should not treat its result as valid caps.
In all other places NULL is properly handled.
The processing deadline is the acceptable amount of time to process the media
in a live pipeline before it reaches the sink. This is on top of the algorithmic
latency that is normally reported by the latency query. This should make
pipelines such as "v4lsrc ! xvimagesink" not claim that all frames are late
in the QoS events. Ideally, this should replace max_lateness for most applications.

We need all relevant events of a segment to have consistent seqnum:
* GST_EVENT_SEGMENT
* GST_EVENT_EOS
If we are push-based and create a new segment, use the same seqnum
as the upstream event.
If we are pull-based, use the seqnum of that newly created segment
event everywhere

We need different export decorators for the different libs.
For now no actual change though, just rename before the release,
and add prelude headers to define the new decorator to GST_EXPORT.
Otherwise it's possible that we won't be able to start again
depending the implementation. We do start/stop in normal use cases
whenever GST_QUERY_SCHEDULING happens before we are started.

The flushing state is handled a bit differently, there is no need
to stop flushing in start_complete. This would other result in
unlock_stop being called without unlock_start.
Unlike what the old comment says, there is no need to take the live
lock here, we are still single threaded at this point (app thread
or the state change thread). Also, we will wait for playing state
in create/getrange, no need to do that twice.
