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.
See https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-bad/issues/977
Otherwise when seeking backwards we would keep the last_stop at the last
position we saw until playback passed the seek position again, and if
switching to the next pad happens in the meantime we would set the wrong
offset in the outgoing segment.
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).
This means we can use some newer features and get rid of some
boilerplate code using the `G_DECLARE_*` macros.
As discussed on IRC, 2.44 is old enough by now to start depending on it.
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.
Another helper to navigate a pipeline. It makes it possible to easily
access the pads of an element:
(gdb) print $gst_element_pad(basesink, "sink")
$1 = 0x7fffe80770f0 [GstPad|sink]
This add the different timestamps for segment events:
(gdb) gst-print pad
SrcPad(src, push) {
events:
[...]
segment: time
rate: 1.1
start: 0:03:08.449753330
time: 0:03:08.449753330
position: 0:03:08.449753330
duration: 0:12:14.166687500
[...]
}
It shows a simple tree of all elements in pipeline.
As with gst-dot, the toplevel bin is found from any element of the
pipeline:
(gdb) gst-pipeline-tree bsink
playbin
inputselector1
inputselector0
uridecodebin0
queue2-0
decodebin0
avdec_aac0
aacparse0
vaapidecodebin0
vaapipostproc0
capsfilter1
vaapi-queue
vaapidecode0
capsfilter0
h264parse0
multiqueue0
matroskademux0
typefind
typefindelement0
source
playsink
abin
aconv
resample
conv
identity
aqueue
pulsesink0
vbin
vconv
scale
conv
identity
vqueue
vaapisink0
vdbin
deinterlace
vdconv
audiotee
streamsynchronizer0
This simplifies navigating in a GStreamer pipeline, e.g.
(gdb) print $gst_bin_get($gst_pipeline(pad), "matroskademux0")
$1 = 0x7fffe81b4050 [GstMatroskaDemux|matroskademux0]
For elements, this adds all child elements, the state and base/start time:
(gdb) gst-print pipeline
0x5555556ebd20 "pipeline0"
GstPipeline(pipeline0) {
children:
fakesink0
queue0
videotestsrc0
state: PLAYING
base_time: +2:54:36.892581150
start_time: 0:00:00.000000000
}
For pads, this adds the peer pads and the current task state and the
offset (if not zero):
(gdb) gst-print pad
SrcGhostPad(src, push) {
events:
[...]
peer: vaapisink0:sink
inner peer: scale:src
}
(gdb) gst-print pad
SrcPad(src, push) {
events:
[...]
peer: queue0:sink
task: STARTED
offset: 30000000 [+0:00:00.030000000]
}
This URI is valid:
data:,;base64
(It encodes the literal string ";base64")
But would lead to a crash because the code assumed the semicolon would
be placed before the colon.
Quoting RFC 2396:
For resiliency, programs interpreting URI should treat upper case
letters as equivalent to lower case in scheme names (e.g., allow
"HTTP" as well as "http").
Before GST_PAD_PROBE_HANDLED was introduced, we had to handle the case
where some probes would reset the probe info data field to NULL. This would
be considered an invalid use-case.
But with GST_PAD_PROBE_HANDLED it is totally fine to reset that, since
the probe has "handled" it.
This seems to happen when another client is accessing the file at the
same time, and retrying after a short amount of time solves it.
Sometimes partial data is written at that point already but we have no
idea how much it is, or if what was written is correct (it sometimes
isn't) so we always first seek back to the current position and repeat
the whole failed write.
It happens at least on Linux and macOS on SMB/CIFS and NFS file systems.
Between write attempts that failed with EACCES we wait 10ms, and after
enough consecutive tries that failed with EACCES we simply time out.
In theory a valid EACCES for files to which we simply have no access
should've happened already during the call to open(), except for NFS
(see open(2)).
This can be enabled with the new max-transient-error-timeout property, and
a new o-sync boolean property was added to open the file in O_SYNC mode
as without that it's not guaranteed that we get EACCES for the actual
writev() call that failed but might only get it at a later time.

When inspecting plugins to generate the json cache file. Otherwise
when we are not in the uninstalled env and using `gst-build` plugins
with dependency might fail/throw warning, etc..
* Making sure that `static inline` function are in the GIR (by first
defining them, and make sure to mark as skiped)
* Do not try to link to unexisting symbols
* Also generate GIR information about gst_tracers
