We're not actually doing anything differently anywhere when
we detect that we're running under valgrind, so let's not
print that confusing message that makes people wonder how
they can switch it off so they can valgrind the normal
code paths. Seeing that we're not doing that nor have done
so in the last 10 years we might just as well remove the
entire check actually.
I was confused by the existence of `gst_buffer_get_meta` as it suggested
to me that you should only attach one of any type of GstMeta to a buffer.
It's perfectly fine to attach multiple from a single API so I'm
documenting that here.

Use user_data to pass the log_file handle to the logger-function.
If one wants to change the log target (e.g. GST_DEBUG_FILE), simply call
gst_debug_remove_log_function() and re-add the handler with the new log-target
using gst_debug_add_log_function ().
Inactive pads should at all times have the flushing flag set. This means
that when we get a flush-stop on an inactive pad we must ignore it.
On sinkpads, make this more explicit. We used to not clear the flush
flag but remove the events and then return an error because the flushing
flag was set. Now just simply refuse the event without doing anything.
On srcpads, check that we are trying to push a flush-stop event and
refuse it. We would allow this and mark the srcpad as non-flushing
anymore.

Don't rely on g_source_remove() because it operates on the main
context. If a signal watch was added to a new thread-default context
g_source_remove() would have no effect. So simply use
g_source_destroy() to avoid this problem.
Additionally the source_id was removed from GstBusPrivate because it
was redundant with the signal watch GSource also stored in that
structure.

This function is not really pad or slow for the common case of requesting a
pad with the name of the template. It is only slower if you to name your pads
directly instead of letting the element handle it.
Also there's no reason to deprecate it in favor of a more complicated function
for the common case.
Previously gst_element_link_pads_full() forgot to unreference or release
request pads in several error cases. Also comments were added mentioning
why releasing is not necessary in some places.

SetEvent() seems to not call SetLastError(0) internally, so checking last
error after calling SetEvent() may return the error from an earlier W32 API
call. Fix this by calling SetlastError(0) explicitly.
Currently WAKE_EVENT() code is cramped into a macro and doesn't look to be
entirely correct. Particularly, it does not check the return value of
SetEvent(), only the thread-local W32 error value. It is likely that SetEvent()
actually just returns non-zero value, but the code mistakenly thinks that the
call has failed, because GetLastError() seems to indicate so.

We can now create and free a buffer list with one slice alloc/free
call in most cases, instead of one slice alloc/free for the list,

from the start, so can avoid reallocs.

Boxed types can't be derived from, and we don't support
deriving from our special fundamental types (the code
checks for GType equality in most places.
Currently we leak the internal representation of them as two GValues that
contain a fraction. Without this we could store fraction ranges as
data[0] = (min_n << 32) | (min_d)
data[1] = (max_n << 32) | (max_d)
and wouldn't require an additional allocation per range.
Otherwise negative values will sets all of the 64 bits due to two's
complement's definition of negative values.
Also add a test for negative int ranges.
Both gst_value_intersect and gst_value_subtract will call
gst_value_compare if one of their arguments isn't a list.
gst_value_compare will then re-do a check to see if one of
the arguments is a list (for the special case of comparing a unitary
value with a list of length 1).
The problem is that the various G_VALUE_HOLDS represent an expensive
amount of calling gst_value_compare (almost half of it) to see if
the provided arguments are list. These checks can be done without
when we know that the arguments aren't lists.
* Create a new "nolist" gst_value_compare which avoids that special
case comparision

Currently there is no other way to unlock a buffer pool other then
stopping it. This may have the effect of freeing all the buffers,
which is too heavy for a seek. This patch add a method to enter and
leave flushing state. As a convenience, flush_start/flush_stop
virtual are added so pool implementation can also unblock their own
internal poll atomically with the rest of the pool. This is fully
backward compatible with doing stop/start to actually flush the pool
(as being done in GstBaseSrc).

Currently we set TAG_MEMORY as soon a resize changes the size of one

Automatically copying the sticky events makes it impossible for apps
and elements to filter the events with event probes. This causes
regressions (See #719437). The best option is to let the app/element

set.
Update the sticky events on SRC ghostpads when retargeting. This ensures
that the ghostpad has the exect same sticky events as the target pad. We

events.

This is equal to any other caps features but results in unfixed caps. It
would be used by elements that only look at the buffer metadata or are
currently working in passthrough mode, and as such don't care about any
specific features.
These are meant to specify features in caps that are required
for a specific structure, for example a specific memory type
or meta.
Semantically they could be though of as an extension of the media
type name of the structures and are handled exactly like that.
Elements should override GstElement::set_context() and also call
gst_element_set_context() to keep this context up-to-date with
the very latest context they internally use.
When flushing, it is expected that upstream will send a SEGMENT

Only use the allocator of the copied memory when we can use the default
_alloc function on it. Otherwise we will have to use the default
allocator for the copy.
motivation comes from: /* FIXME: why not gst_pad_get_pad_template (pad); */
this code path is quite nicer, we now only revert to creating the template
if gst_pad_get_pad_template fails.
with this fork, we gain a non-allocation of GstCaps *templcaps

Set operations on the bitmasks don't make much sense and result
in invalid caps when used as a channel-mask. They are now handled
exactly like integers.
This functionality was not used anywhere except for tests.

gst_bin_query() now forwards the query to the source pads as well if
none of the sinks of the bin satisfied the query. This helps in the
case of DURATION queries done a bin containing a source element.
