This adds properties to use the clock time for deciding when
to drop buffers for inactive pads and a property to buffer all
not rendered buffers for the active pad to allow pad switching
without losing any buffers at all.

In commit bf0964b6 a check for pad is activated was not carried.
This leads to attempt to pull while in push mode when force_caps
is set. In this case without the attached check even when activated
in pull mode we activate back to push mode.
This is from comment in previous code , case number eight:
8. if the sink pad is activated, we are in pull mode. succeed.
- otherwise activate both pads in push mode and succeed.
Putting it back fixes playback of webm in webkit+gstreamer 1.0 .

When we don't have the requested data in the ringbuffer and we move our read
pointer to the requested position, signal the delete cond to inform the writer
that we changed the current fill level. If we don't, the writer might stay
blocked and we might wait forever.
When we don't have enough bytes in the ringbuffer to satisfy the current
request, first update the current read position before waiting. If we don't do
that, the ringbuffer might appear full and the writer will never write more
bytes to wake us up.
Only add the range when we receive a segment event on the sinkpad. The add_range
method will modify the write position, which only makes sense to do on the
sinkpad.
Set the seeking flag right before we send a seek event upstream and discard all
data untill we see a flush-stop again. We need to do this because we activate
the range that we seek to immediately after sending the seek event and it is
possible that we receive data in our chain function from before the seek
which would then be added to the wrong range resulting in data corruption.
When using the ringbuffer, handle the newsegment event like we handle it when
using the temp-file mode: create a new range for the new byte segment. The new
segment should normally already be created when we do a seek.
Doesn't actually change the default value, just makes use of the
define there is. Superficial testing with fakesink and jpegdec did
not reveal improved performance for bigger block sizes, so leave
default as it is.
A flush from the upstream element should not make buffering go to 0, the next
pull request might be inside a range that we have and then we don't need to
buffer at all. If the next pull is outside anything we have, buffering will
happen as usual anyway.
We want to forward the flush events received on the sinkpad whenever the srcpad
is activated in pushmode, which can also happen when using the RINGBUFFER or
DOWNLOAD mode and downstream failed to activate us in pull mode.
When we have EOS, read the remaining bytes in the buffer and make sure we don't
wait for more data. Also clip the output buffer to the amount of remaining
bytes.
When using the ringbuffer mode, the buffer is filled when we reached the
max_level.bytes mark or the total size of the ringbuffer, whichever is smaller.
Use a threshold variable to hold the maximum distance from the current position
for with we will wait instead of doing a seek.
When using the ringbuffer and the requested offset is not available, avoid
waiting until the complete ringbuffer is filled but instead do a seek when the
requested data is further than the threshold.
Avoid doing the seek twice in the ringbuffer case.
Use the same threshold for ringbuffer and download buffering.
Remove GST_MAJORMINOR and replace it by GST_API_VERSION
Also set GST_VERSION_{MAJOR,MINOR,MICRO,NANO} explicitely
now.
All versions are at 1.0.0 now for the release soon but
API/ABI can still change until the 1.0.0 release.
Next release versions until 1.0.0 will be 0.10.9X and
these will be release candidates. GST_VERSION_* will
nonetheless stay at 1.0.0.0.
gst_buffer_take_memory -> gst_buffer_insert_memory because insert is what the
method does.
Make all methods deal with ranges so that we can replace, merge, remove and map
a certain subset of the memory in a buffer. With the new methods we can make
some code nicer and reuse more code. Being able to deal with a subset of the
buffer memory allows us to optimize more cases later (most notably RTP headers
and payload that could be in different memory objects).
Make some more convenient macros that call the more generic range methods.
We reset all the waiting streams, let them push another buffer to
see if they're now active again. This allows faster switching
between streams and prevents deadlocks if downstream does any
waiting too.
Also improve locking a bit, srcresult must be protected by the
multiqueue lock too because it's used/set from random threads.
Otherwise we might block forever because upstream (e.g. multiqueue) is waiting
for the previously active stream to return forever (which is waiting here
in inputselector) before pushing something on the newly selected stream.
Improve the docs of the get/pull_range functions, define the lifetime of the
buffer in case of errors and short reads.
Make sure the code does what the docs say.
Make it so that one can specify a buffer for get/pull_range where the downstream
element should write into. When passing NULL, upstream should allocate a buffer,
like in 0.10.
We also need to change the probes a little because before the pull probe, there
could already be a buffer passed. This then allows us to use the same PROBE
macro for before and after pulling.
While we're at the probes, make the query probe more powerful by handling the
GST_PAD_PROBE_DROP return value. Returning _DROP from a query probe will now
return TRUE upstream and will not forward the probe to the peer or handler.
Also handle _DROP for get/pull_range properly by not dispatching to the
peer/handler or by generating EOS when the probe returns DROP and no buffer.
Make filesrc handle the non-NULL buffer passed in the get_range function and
skip the allocation in that case, writing directly into the downstream provided
buffer.
Update tests because now we need to make sure to not pass a random value in the
buffer pointer to get/pull_range
Group the extra allocation parameters in a GstAllocationParams structure to make
it easier to deal with them and so that we can extend them later if needed.
Make gst_buffer_new_allocate() take the GstAllocationParams for added
functionality.
Add boxed type for GstAllocationParams.
Rename _do_simplify() to _simplify(). The name was introduced as a replacement
method for a deprecated method but we can now rename it again.
Fix some docs.
Make gst_caps_do_simplify() take ownership of the input caps and produce a
simplified output caps. This removes the requirement of having writable input
caps and the method can make the caps writable only when needed.
Rename gst_base_transform_suggest to gst_base_transform_reconfigure_sink because
that is what it does. Also remove the caps and size because that is not needed.
Rename gst_base_transform_reconfigure to gst_base_transform_reconfigure_src.
Remove some old unused code in capsfilter.
Make it possible to configure a GDestroyNotify and user_data for
gst_memory_new_wrapped() this allows for more flexible wrapping of foreign
memory blocks.
Remove the link functions and always start the pad task on the srcpad. If
applications need to autoplug they can put a blocking probe on the srcpad like
they would with any other element.
Default to not creating lots of overhead by doing a couple of
g_strdup_printf()/g_free() per buffer or event just to generate
a last-message update that rarely anyone listens to. This means
that you need to enable silent=true explicitly in order to get
last-message dumps in gst-launch -v now. On the upside, people
won't inadvertently end up benchmarking g_strdup_printf()
performance instead of gstreamer data handling performance any
more.
Maybe the silent property should be renamed to enable-last-message
or something like that?
Correctly mark passthrough on the baseclass so that it can correctly do the
allocation of the output buffers.
Remove our custom prepare_output_buffer function now that the baseclass is
smarter.
There are many good use cases for GstIndex and we want
to add it back again in some form, but possibly not with
the current API, which is very powerful (maybe too powerful),
but also a bit confusing. At the very least we'd need to
make the API bindings-friendly.
When output-selector didn't receive a newsegment event it would
warn about pad being unlinked when switching pads. Making the logs
wrong and misleading.

Dit not merge controller or basetransform changes.
While local filesystems will usually not cause short reads,
this may happen on seekable files on some remote filesystems.
Instead, loop till we get the requested amount of data, or
an actual EOS (ie, 0 bytes).

Note: did not merge any of the basetransform changes from 0.10.
Add a method to enable async start behaviour. The subclass can then complete the
start operation from any other thread by caling gst_base_src_start_complete().
The base class can wait for the start to complete with
gst_base_src_start_wait().
Add private replacements for deprecated functions such as
g_mutex_new(), g_mutex_free(), g_cond_new() etc., mostly
to avoid the deprecation warnings. We can't change most of
these in 0.10 because they're part of our API and ABI.
Add new wait_eos vmethod to wait for the eos timeout before posting the EOS
message on the bus.
Add default event handler. Move the default event actions in there. Call the
event vmethod from the pad event handler. Subclasses are now supposed to chain
up to the parent event handler or unref the event and do their own thing.
Avoid passing unused parameters to functions.
Add a new event flag for sticky events so that multiple events of that type can
be stored on a pad at the same time. Change the _get_sticky_event() function to
loop over the multiple events of a type.
Change the foreach function to make it possible to removed and modify the sticky
events on a pad.
Use an variable size array now to store the events. This could later be
optimized some more.
Add the pad mode to the activate function so that we can reuse the same function
for all activation modes. This makes the core logic smaller and allows for some
elements to make their activation code easier. It would allow us to add more
scheduling modes later without having to add more activate functions.
Turns some boolean arguments in the scheduling query to flags, which are easier
to extend and makes the code easier to read.
Make extra methods for configuring and querying the supported scheduling modes.
This should make it easier to add new modes later.
Remove the getcaps function on the pad and use the CAPS query for
the same effect.
Add PROXY_CAPS to the pad flags. This instructs the default caps event and query
handlers to pass on the CAPS related queries and events. This simplifies a lot
of elements that passtrough caps negotiation.
Make two utility functions to proxy caps queries and aggregate the result. Needs
to use the pad forward function instead later.
Make the _query_peer_ utility functions use the gst_pad_peer_query() function to
make sure the probes are emited properly.
No one but filesrc used that API. Should probably be replaced by
requiring an "uri" property instead, and then objects can do a
notify on that. Also removed interface structure padding, it's
not needed.
when we are flushing, don't store the event on the pad but simply return FALSE.
Don't deactivate the srcpad, we need it to be active in order to push the
caps. Downstream can change the scheduling mode of an active pad.
There's no code that uses it other than multiqueue, so make it private
to multiqueue for now. That way we can also do optimisations that
require API/ABI breaks. If anyone ever wants to use it, we can still
make it public again.
_set_caps only gets called when the buffer is actually pushed, so there
is a reasonably big window between when the initial caps are retrieved
and when the caps are set on our src pad. So we can't assume the not
having negotiated caps on our src pad means _get_caps still has to be
called.
Instead simply always suggest the new caps on buffer_alloc.
Add a vmethod to handle the pad query.
Install a default handler for the pad query.
Add a vmethod to setup the allocation properties.
Use the new query function in filesink
Implement the sink event handling like the src event handler. Make the default
implementation parse and forward the event. This makes it possible to actually
return an error value from the event handler.
Remove the requirement to have to return a ref to the input buffer when in
passthrough mode. This saves a few ref/unref cycles and fixes another 0.11
FIXME.
Remove the caps and size from the prepare_output_buffer function. with
bufferpools and capsnego done differently, we don't need this in most cases and
if we do, we can simply use the transform_size function and get the caps from
the srcpad.
Add an index to gst_buffer_take_memory() so that we can also insert memory at a
certain offset. This is mostly interesting to prepend a header memory block to
the buffer.
Make a new method to allocate a buffer + memory that takes the allocator and the
alignment as parameters. Provide a macro for the old method but prefer to use
the new method to encourage plugins to negotiate the allocator properly.
Add a new fill virtual method to basesrc. The purpose of this method is to fill
a provided buffer with data.
Add a default implementation of the create method that allocates a buffer and
calls the fill method on it. This would allow the base class to implement
bufferpool and allocator negotiation on behalf of the subclasses.
Fix the blocksize property.
Make filesrc use the new fill method.
Always forward all events in the default handler. Previously it used to not
forward caps events by default. It makes more sense to forward the caps events,
if the element is interested in the caps, it will implement an event handler to
retrieve the caps and then it can decide to forward or not. If the element has
no event handler, it probably just doesn't care about caps and it probably is
also not going to modify the data in a way that needs a caps change.
See #651514 for details. It's apparently impossible to write code
that avoids both type punning warnings with old g_atomic headers and
assertions in the new. Thus, macros and a version check.
When releasing the request pad, first remove it from the element and then
deactivate it. If we do it the other way around, a gst_pad_push on the element
might return wrong-state before we had a chance to detect the removed pad in the
chain function.
This makes sure that SEEK events are sent to all upstream elements, which is
required if different streams are completely distinct pipeline parts. Also this
allows QoS to be done on deselected streams, flushes to be handled correctly,
etc.
The switch action signal with the stop and start running times
is not necessary anymore. Closing of segments is not necessary
and adjusting the start running time of a segment can later be
done with new GstPad API.
This reverts commit cf4fbc005c.
This change did not improve the situation for bindings because
queries are usually created, then directly passed to a function
and not stored elsewhere, and the writability problem with
miniobjects usually happens with buffers or caps instead.
Improve GstSegment, rename some fields. The idea is to have the GstSegment
structure represent the timing structure of the buffers as they are generated by
the source or demuxer element.
gst_segment_set_seek() -> gst_segment_do_seek()
Rename the NEWSEGMENT event to SEGMENT.
Make parsing of the SEGMENT event into a GstSegment structure.
Pass a GstSegment structure when making a new SEGMENT event. This allows us to
pass the timing info directly to the next element. No accumulation is needed in
the receiving element, all the info is inside the element.
Remove gst_segment_set_newsegment(): This function as used to accumulate
segments received from upstream, which is now not needed anymore because the
segment event contains the complete timing information.
This reverts commit 9ef1346b1f.
Way to much for one commit and I'm not sure we want to get rid of the pad caps
just like that. It's nice to have the buffer and its type in onw nice bundle
without having to drag the complete context with it.
Remove pad_alloc and all references. This can now be done more efficiently and
more flexible with the ALLOCATION query and the bufferpool objects. There is no
reverse negotiation yet but that will be done with an event later.
