741ff6a371 gstutils: Fix linear regression comparision
The check for dropping precision was wrong when sxx and syy were negative.

if they are negative then "G_MAXINT64 - val" would always overflow

The check was meant to use G_MININT64 (like in the loop contained just
after).

6577f5e91e gsttraceutils: actually disable tracing system hooks if configured
`./configure --disable-gst-tracer-hooks` didn't do anything, hooks were
always enabled regardless of the option. It works correctly in the

512cec3dea pad: gst_pad_activate_mode() always succeed if same mode
Checking that the pad is in the correct mode before the parent is
checked makes the call always succeed if the mode is ok.

This fixes a race with ghostpad where gst_pad_activate_mode() could
trigger a g_critical() if the ghostpad is unparented while the
proxypad is deactivating, for instance if the ghostpad is released.
More specifically, gst_ghost_pad_internal_activate_push_default()'s
call to gst_pad_activate_mode() would fail if ghostpad doesn't have a
parent. With this patch it will return true of mode is already
correct.

7ea4152323 gstvalue: allocate slightly larger than needed tables at startup
If we pre-allocate only *exactly* as many nodes as we need for the
core types, we are practically guaranteed a re-alloc when external
code like GstVideoTimeCode or GstEncodingProfile register their
own GstValue things. So allocate a bit more than strictly needed.

d915dd4b20 gstpad: Make pad (de)activation atomic
The following could happen previously:
* T1: calls gst_pad_set_active()
* T2: currently (de)activating it
* T1: gst_pad_set_active() returns, caller assumes that the pad has
  completed the requested (de)activation ... whereas it is not
  the case since the actual (de)activation in T2 might still be
  going on.

To ensure atomicity of pad (de)activation, we use a internal
variable (and cond) to ensure only one thread at a time goes through
the actual (de)activation block

d106390adc element: add gst_element_foreach_*pad()
Add convenience API that iterates over all pads, sink pads or
source pads and makes sure that the foreach function is called
exactly once for each pad.

This is a KISS implementation. It doesn't use GstIterator and
doesn't try to do clever things like resync if pads are added
or removed while the function is executing. We can still do that
in future if we think it's needed, but in practice it will
likely make absolutely no difference whatsoever, since these
things will have to be handled properly elsewhere by the element
anyway if they're important.

After all, it's always possible that a pad is added or removed
just after the iterator finishes iterating, but before the
function returns.

This is also a replacement for gst_aggregator_iterate_sink_pads().

ebad8c0094 bin: iterate_sorted: Ensure sources are always returned last
For linked elements, the resulting gst_bin_iterate_sorted() will
properly return elements from sink to sources.

If we have some elements that are not linked, we *still* want to
ensure that we return:
* In priority any sinks
* Last of all any sources
* And in between any element which is neither source nor sink

For this to work, when looking for the next candidate element,
not only check the degree order, but if there are two candidates
with the same degree order, prefer the non-source one.

Amongst other things, this fixes the case where we activating a
bin containing unlinked sources and other elements. Without this
we could end up activating sources (which might start adding pads
to be linked) before other (to which those new source element pads
might be linked) are not activated

6cddce7663 plugin: API: GST_PLUGIN_DEPENDENCY_FLAG_PATHS_ARE_RELATIVE_TO_EXE
When a plugin declares a dependency using this flag, all the
relative paths are considered to be relative to the path of
the main executable.

We try to determine the path of the executable portably,
with implementations provided for Linux, Windows and Mac.

If retrieval of the path fails, we will not detect changes.

In order for the main executable path to be the same when
scanning a plugin in a child process, a new variable is
exposed in gst_private.h, _gst_executable_path

2e4c82d850 gst: Handle floating references consistently
If a function takes a floating reference parameter, it should also be
sinked in error cases. Otherwise the function behaves differently
between error and normal cases, which is impossible for bindings to
handle.

7c4d3a6c52 gst: Fix floating reference inconsistencies in error cases
If a function takes a floating reference and sinks it, it should also do
that in error cases. I.e. call ref_sink() followed by unref().

Otherwise the reference counting behaviour of the function will be
different between the good and the error case, and simply inconsistent.

0eecc49c13 gst: add GST_DEPRECATED_FOR() and also export deprecated symbols
Can't use a #ifndef GST_DISABLE_DEPRECATED guard around deprecated
functions any more, as they won't get exported then. Besides, we
get a nicer error message from the compiler telling us what function
to use instead this way.

7d930b8693 buffer: Add GstReferenceTimestampMeta
This is a meta that generically allows to attach additional reference
timestamps to a buffer, that don't have to relate to the pipeline clock
in any way.

Examples of this could be an NTP timestamp when the media was captured,
a frame counter on the capture side or the (local) UNIX timestamp when
the media was captured.

e7ede5a487 plugin: Unify static and dynamic plugin interface
This patch changes the entry point of each plugin in order to unify the
interface for static and dynamic plugin. What we do is replace the
current static plugin interface and extend the dymamic one. The plugin
entry was a C structure, name "gst_plugin_desc". With this patch, the
interface is now:

  GstPpluginDesc *gst_plugin_<name>_get_desc(void);

The reason we change the C structure into function, is that it is
potentially more common to have function pointers, avoiding possible
binding language limitation. Additionally to that. This change prevents
the symbols from clashing between plugins, allowing to build once the
plugin (assuming you have -fPIC).

On the plugin loader side, we symply derive the shared object basename
to extract the plugin name. If this symbol is not found, we fallback to
gst_plugin_desc for backward compatibility.

This has one side effect, which is that the shared objects now need to
be named after their plugin name. This is generally the case with few
exceptions. The benifit of this limitation is that you can control the
gst_plugin_<name>_desc clash at file level.

d108ed2251 gst: check non-null before dereference
It is possible to use gst_deinit() without registering the base
classes. For example, when using gst_init_get_option_group() and
call the program with an invalid parameter. In that case,
gst_deinit() will lead to a segmentation fault, since there is a
dereference to a pointer that is null.

This patch validates if the type is non-null before dereferencing
it.
