3f5a8814d5 gst/gstelement.c (gst_element_dispose): Protect against multiple invocations.
Original commit message from CVS:
2004-02-24  Andy Wingo  <wingo@pobox.com>

* gst/gstelement.c (gst_element_dispose): Protect against multiple
invocations.

* gst/schedulers/gstoptimalscheduler.c
I added a mess of prototypes at the top of the file by way of
documentation. Some of the operations on chains and groups were
re-organized.

(create_group): Added a type argument so if the group is enabled,
the setup_group_scheduler knows what to do.
(group_elements): Added a type argument here, too, to be passed on
to create_group.
(group_element_set_enabled): If an unlinked PLAYING element is
added to a bin, we have to create a new group to hold the element,
and this function will be called before the group is added to the
chain. Thus we have a valid case for group->chain==NULL. Instead
of calling chain_group_set_enabled, just set the flag on the group
(the chain's status will be set when the group is added to it).
(gst_opt_scheduler_state_transition, chain_group_set_enabled):
Setup the group scheduler when the group is enabled, not
specifically when an element goes PAUSED->PLAYING. This means
PLAYING elements can be added, linked, and scheduled into a
PLAYING pipeline, as was intended.
(add_to_group): Don't ref the group twice. I don't know when this
double-ref got in here. Removing it has the potential to cause
segfaults if other parts of the scheduler are buggy. If you find
that the scheduler is segfaulting for you, put in an extra ref
here and see if that hacks over the underlying issue. Of course,
then find out what code is unreffing a group it doesn't own...
(create_group): Make the extra refcount floating, and remove it
after adding the element. This means that...
(unref_group): Destroy when the refcount reaches 0, not 1, like
every other refcounted object in the known universe.
(remove_from_group): When a group becomes empty, set it to be not
active, and remove it from its chain. Don't unref it again,
there's no floating reference any more.
(destroy_group): We have to remove the group from the chain in
remove_from_group (rather than here) to break refcounting cycles
(the chain always has a ref on the group). So assert that
group->chain==NULL.
(ref_group_by_count): Removed, it was commented out anyway.
(merge_chains): Use the remove_from_chain and add_to_chain
primitives to do the reparenting, instead of rolling our own
implementation.
(add_to_chain): The first non-disabled group in the chain's group
list will be the entry point for the chain. Because buffers can
accumulate in loop elements' peer bufpens, we preferentially
schedule loop groups before get groups to avoid unnecessary
execution of get-based groups when the bufpens are already full.
(gst_opt_scheduler_schedule_run_queue): Debug fixes.
(get_group_schedule_function): Ditto.
(loop_group_schedule_function): Ditto.
(gst_opt_scheduler_loop_wrapper): Ditto.
(gst_opt_scheduler_iterate): Ditto.

I understand the opt scheduler now, yippee!

* gst/gstpad.c: All throughout, added FIXMEs to look at for 0.9.

(gst_pad_set_get_function, gst_pad_set_event_function)

(gst_pad_dispatcher, gst_pad_send_event, gst_pad_convert_default)
(gst_pad_convert, gst_pad_query_default, gst_pad_query)
(gst_pad_get_formats_default, gst_pad_get_formats): Better
argument checks, and some doc fixes.

(gst_pad_custom_new_from_template): Um, does anyone
use these functions? Actually make a custom pad instead of a
normal one.
(gst_pad_try_set_caps): Transpose some checks.
(gst_pad_try_set_caps_nonfixed): Same, and use a macro to check if
the pad is in negotiation.
(gst_pad_try_relink_filtered): Use pad_link_prepare.

* gst/gstelement.c: Remove prototypes also defined in gstclock.h.

* gst/gstelement.h:
* gst/gstclock.h: Un-deprecate the old clocking API, as discussed
on the list.

1e82f617e4 gst/gstclock.*: deprecate old interface and disable functions that aren't in use anymore.
Original commit message from CVS:
2004-01-13  Benjamin Otte  <in7y118@public.uni-hamburg.de>

* gst/gstclock.c: (gst_clock_class_init), (gst_clock_init),
(gst_clock_set_speed), (gst_clock_set_active),
(gst_clock_is_active), (gst_clock_reset),
(gst_clock_handle_discont):
* gst/gstclock.h:
deprecate old interface and disable functions that aren't in use
anymore.
* gst/gstelement.h:
* gst/gstelement.c: (gst_element_get_time), (gst_element_wait),
(gst_element_set_time), (gst_element_adjust_time):
add concept of "element time" and functions to get/set this time.
* gst/gstelement.c: (gst_element_change_state):
update element time correctly.
* gst/gstelement.c: (gst_element_get_compatible_pad_filtered):
This is a debug message, not a g_critical.
* gst/gstpad.c: (gst_pad_event_default):
handle discontinuous events right with element time.
* gst/gstscheduler.c: (gst_scheduler_state_transition):
update to clocking fixes.
set clocks on elements in READY=>PAUSED. The old behaviour caused
a wrong element time on the first element that started playing.
* gst/schedulers/gstbasicscheduler.c:
(gst_basic_scheduler_class_init):
* gst/schedulers/gstoptimalscheduler.c:
(gst_opt_scheduler_class_init):
remove code that just implements the default behaviour.
* gst/elements/gstfakesink.c: (gst_fakesink_chain):
update to use new clocking functions
* testsuite/clock/clock1.c: (gst_clock_debug), (main):
* testsuite/clock/clock2.c: (gst_clock_debug), (main):
update to test new element time.
* gst/autoplug/gstspideridentity.c: (gst_spider_identity_getcaps):
use _get_allowed_caps instead of _get_caps. This catches filtered
caps correctly.
* testsuite/debug/commandline.c:
update for new GST_DEBUG syntax.
* testsuite/threads/Makefile.am:
disable a test that only works sometimes.

25f85868d4 implement URI schemes
Original commit message from CVS:
implement URI schemes
Elements can now register as a source or sink for a protocol and applications can use gst_element_make_from_uri () to get an element that handles a given URI.
This patch provides:
- removal of old broken URI handling scheme.
- new URI handling using interfaces.
- updates for registry to save handled URIs.
- interface for URI handlers.
- implementation of that in filesrc and filesink for the file:// URI
- extension to pipeline parsing to allow specifying only a URI instead of element

Does not include:
- tests
- inclusion in docs build

Original commit message from CVS:
huge modifications, hope i didn't break something:
- added functions for setting/getting locked state of elements. gst_element_lock_state syncs the pads state with the state of its parent.
- made all gst_element_link_* functions call gst_element_link_pads_filtered
- gst_element_link_pads_filtered now accepts NULL as a pad name.
- make sure the link functions are only called when the elements are paused
That's it.

Totally rewritten registry handling.
- move the registry save/load code into a gstregistry subclass, this

RDBMS type, etc..)
- a simple GMarkup xml registry is implemented
- use standard statically linked plugins for core elements.
- GstPlugin has a very well defined set of functions now
A little bytestream hack..
Added more info to -inspect.
Some more debugging info for clocking.
Small cleanups

I use ./gst-register --gst-plugin-path=/opt/src/sourceforge/gst-plugins/gst-libs:/opt/src/sourceforge/gst-plugins/
to register core and gst-plugins now.

Original commit message from CVS:
* many fixes related to dynamic pipelines.
* addition of gst_element_disconnect_elements(), as per connect_elements()
* don't have a cow if typefind changes state in its signal handlers
* support of request pad -> request pad in connect_elements()
* some fixes in int2float that will eventually need to be ported to float2int and
adder

the gstelement api is getting bloated, expect a rewrite within the next month.

a2c24524e2 This patch (nearly) completes the removal of vertical events from the core.
Original commit message from CVS:
This patch (nearly) completes the removal of vertical events from the
core.
What it does:
- removal of the EVENT signal of GstElement (to be replaced by
g_object_notify)
- changing of the ERROR signal to allow recursive notification (like
deep_notify)
- implementing recursive notification with error events.
- removal of some functions in gstbin.c that are not used anymore.
- The function gst_element_info and gst_element_send_event now do
nothing but printing a warning, that these functions are gone. This is
done to allow plugins to catch up.
- Some bugfixes in XML saving are included, they simply were in the
file.

Original commit message from CVS:
Landed the new improved capsnegotiation system.
The main idea is to keep track of the possible data types that can
pass through a connection. plugins can at any time inspect, adjust and
refine these caps. plugins also get notified when something changes to
the types so that they can reconfigure themselves.
Look at the updated plugins and the soon to be finished doc.

summary: fix xml in gstreamer

1) make clear distinction between loading xml that actually creates objects and loading xml that just
synchronizes properties with objects. moved most of gst_element_restore_thyself functionality to
gst_xml_make_element. this new function name can change if it sucks.
2) many various fixes. createxml and runxml work now.
3) doc updates.
4) GstSignalObject is stil broken. i have no idea what it's supposed to do.

087dee1f62 This is an attempt at not segfaulting on errors but reporting some usefull info instead.
Original commit message from CVS:
This is an attempt at not segfaulting on errors but reporting some
usefull info instead.
- bin changes so errors can propagate.
- changed the _FAST macros to _CAST because that is what they do.
- removed all references to cothreads out of the core, they are
really a scheduler issue, handler with a sched_private gpointer.
- added a live buffer count, for debugging buffer leaks.
- added error checking in gst_scheduler_state_transition this solves the
"out of cothreads" problem.
- GST_ELEMENT_NO_ENTRY == GST_ELEMENT_INFINITE_LOOP
- added 2 private element flasg for use by the scheduler
(_COTHREAD_STOPPING) is now
- added scheduler entry points:
- _yield : to create possible scheduling points.
- _interrupt: to stop execution of an element.
- _error: to signal en error condition to the scheduler.
- improved error messages for pads.
- signal gst_element_error where appropriate.
- added the a new bin to the parent before entering it so one can reference
its children.
- queue memleak fixes on dispose.
- added possible deadlock detection in queue (turned off be default)
- GstBasicScheduler is a real class of its own now, hiding its internal
variables.
- GST_ELEMENT_IS_COTHREAD_STOPPING is gone. either call explicit _yield
operations, or make a sane loop.
- Better state change handling in filesrc. Better error reporting/recovery
too.
- updated core plugins.
- detect non decoupled elements on scheduler boundries and error.

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.

Original commit message from CVS:
This is a megapatch with the following changes:

- moved the gchar *name to GstObject, removed the ones in GstElement and
GstPad.
- moved the parent handling completely into GstObject. This cause *all* of
the plugins to fail (except those that used gst_pad_get_parent)
- rearanged the XML save handling.
- GstObject now has a class function save/restore_thyself.
- GstObject has a generic method gst_object_save_thyself, this makes it
possible to fire a signal wehever a new object is loaded. This is needed
so we can add XML save hooks.
- GstXML API has changed slightly. You now have to create a GstXML object
first before you can actually load something. This makes it possible to
attach a signal to GstXML whenever an object is loaded. I'm not sure we
will keep this interface.
- GstObject can now print the path_string without knowing about the GstPad and
GstElement types.
- Added gst_bin_get_by_name_recurse_up to lookup an element in the current
element hierarchy.
- added XML namespaces to the saved pipelines the namespace is:
http://gstreamer.net/gst-core/1.0/
namespaces are needed to distinguish user generated XML from the core XML.

Note that the plugins still contain a macro GST_OBJECT_PARENT that will be
replaced with gst_pad_get_parent shortly.

More massive changes to the scheduling system.  Moved the scheduling code
to gstscheduler.[ch], so an child bin can replace the scheduler.
Introduced the concept of chains, which are subsets of the list of managed

gst_bin_iterate_func should be pretty much fixed now, the scheduling code
gets to do all the hard work.

Cleanup in gsttypes.c:
removed the crazy GList of GHashTables, since the autoplugger will
use the GstCaps and elementfactories instead of the type system.
We don't maintain a list anymore of the elements for the specific

Cleanup in gstelementfactory:
removed the register/unregister methods, register is now implicit when
gst_elementfactory_new is called. _unregister is now _destroy.
Removed logic to register/unregister the types in gsttypes.
added methods to query if the factory can src/sink a GstCaps
Make sure the elementfactory is set in the element_class when a new
element is registered with gst_elementfactory_new.

gst.c: properly register the basic bins
gst_pipeline: use new gstautoplug (next checkin)

The GstPadFactory is converted into a GstPadTemplate. The template is
used to create new pads and to expose the possible pads used in an
element to the plugin system.

updated mp3parse, mpg123, cdparanoia to the new API.
Rerun gstreamer-register because the XML definition has changed.

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.

Original commit message from CVS:
Closed 22145 - gstelement.c: support hotswapping of loopfunc

Added a flag GST_ELEMENT_NEW_LOOPFUNC that's set when a new loopfunc is set,
which needs to be obeyed by the loopfuncs themselves.  The assumption is
that only a loopfunc or an element that knows what it's doing will ever
change the loopfunc pointer, so they can be responsible for exitting
the loopfunc itself appropriately.

The loopfunc_wrapper function has been changed to call the loopfunc
pointer itself in a loop.  If the loopfunc changes, the current loop is
supposed to exit, which causes the loopfunc_wrapper to start up the new
loopfunc.

it to a loop based element with pull_region to fetch the indeces etc...)

Added plugin documentation. I fear we need a gstdoc implementation
that loads plugins and does introspection on them. I think we should
automatically create the docs for the pads and mime types the plugins
provide. Does anyone have enough perl knowledge to add these features? I
allready changed the C code to output the pad definitions but my perl
knowledge is too limited, for now, to implement the rest of the needed
functionality...

Original commit message from CVS:
A first (rude) attempt at autoplug.
Autoplugging selects appropriate codecs to connect src to sink, adds
them to the pipeline and connect pads.
Autoplugging will run the typedetect plugin if the src pad has no MIME
type.
No autoplugging is done on the src and sink pads, it's hardcoded:
connect 'src to sink'.
No attempt at creating threads.
No attempt at dynamically autoplugging not yet existing pads.
Changes to (some) plugins to properly set their MIME types.
