A common use case of a dynamically built pipeline is that you want to
(conditionally) find a certain element, e.g. the `rtpbin`s in a
`uridecodebin`. If that element has a fixed name inside its parent bin
(and only has a single instance) this can be easily done by
`gst_bin_get_by_name()`.
If there are multiple instances of the element however, you can only use
`gst_bin_iterate_all_by_interface()`, but this doesn't work if you don't
have the specific `GType` (which is often the case, due to plugins being
dynamically loaded). As such, another fallback could be to use the
well-known name of the element's factory (in case of our example, this
is of course `"rtpbin"`).
And change it to do nothing at all.
As debug categories don't use reference counting and they can be
retrieved from anywhere at any time by name, it is fundamentally unsafe
to free them at any point in time except for right before the end of the
process.
No code apart from a unit test seems to be currently using the function,
so deprecate it and also change it to do nothing at all.
The offset in gst_buffer_resize() is additive. So to move back the
offset to zero, we need to pass the opposite of the current offset. This
was raised through the related unit test failingon 32bit as on 64bit
the alignment padding was enough to hide the issue. The test was
modified to also fail on 64bit. This patch will remove spurious
assertions like:
assertion 'bufmax >= bufoffs + offset + size' failed
Fixes#316
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.
When performing a key unit trickmode seek, it may be useful to
specify a minimum interval between the output frames, either
in very high rate cases, or as a protection against streams
that may contain an overly large amount of key frames.
One use case is ONVIF Section 6.5.3:
<https://www.onvif.org/specs/stream/ONVIF-Streaming-Spec.pdf>
For metas where order might be significant if multiple metas are
attached to the same buffer, so store a sequence number with the
meta when adding it to the buffer. This allows users of the meta
to make sure metas are processed in the right order.
We need a 64-bit integer for the sequence number here in the API,
a 32-bit one might overflow too easily with high packet/buffer
rates. We could do it rtp-seqnum style of course, but that's a
bit of a pain.
We could also make it so that gst_buffer_add_meta() just keeps metas in
order or rely on the order we add the metas in, but that seems too
fragile overall, when buffers (incl. metas) get merged or split.
Also add a compare function for easier sorting.
We store the seqnum in the MetaItem struct here and not in the
GstMeta struct since there's no padding in the GstMeta struct.
We could add a private struct to GstMeta before the start of
GstMeta, but that's what MetaItem effectively is implementation-
wise. We can still change this later if we want, since it's all
private.

gstharness.c: Use G_GSIZE_FORMAT instead of hard-coding %zu
error: unknown conversion type character 'z' in format [-Werror=format]
gst-inspect.c: GPid is void* on non-UNIX, and we only use it on UNIX
error: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Werror]
gstmeta.c: Use and then discard value
error: value computed is not used [-Werror=unused-value]
With this, gstreamer builds with -Werror on MinGW
While extremelly rare, time and gst_date_time_new_* will have
diff values and potentially trigger an assertion. Thus move
the calls as closely together as possible to mitigate this.
We have to ensure that all background threads from thread pools are shut
down, or otherwise they might not have had a chance yet to drop their
last reference to the pipeline and then the assertion for a reference
count of 1 on the pipeline fails.
Otherwise it can easily happen that the pad is destroyed before the
thread disappears, as happened sometimes in the test_pad_probe_block_add_remove
test where joining of the thread was done *after* the pad was unreffed
and destroyed.
Fixes https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/issues/339
Existing test for iterating/removing buffer meta data was insufficient
to detect linked list corruption when removing multiple items, and could
also suffer from such corruption in attempting to count remaining items.
Modified the one test and added several others to exercise multiple
scenarios.
Validates fix for issue #332.
We won't be able to do ASSERT_CRITICAL, but the main body of the tests
are still valid, and given we ship GStreamer with this configuration, it
is important to be able to run some tests against it.
A pointer to a hook in this list can easily not be unique, given both
the slice-allocator reusing memory, and the OS re-using freed blocks
in malloc.
By doing many repeated add and remove of probes, this becomes very easily
reproduced.
Instead use hook_id, which *is* unique for a added GHook.
If a segment has stop == -1, then gst_segment_to_running_time()
would refuse to calculate a running time for negative rates,
but gst_segment_do_seek() allows this scenario and uses a
valid duration for calculations.
Make the 2 functions consistent by using any configured duration
to calculate a running time too in that case.

Using a rate of 1.1 in the test is causing the test to
fail on 32-bit because ceil(1.1 * 10) can round to 12.
Instead use a rate 2.0 that can be expressed as floating
point number and doesn't trigger the problem.

Fixes for gst_segment_position_from_running_time_full() when
converting running_times that precede the segment start (or
stop in a negative rate segment)
The return value was incorrectly negated in those cases.
Add some more unit test checks for those cases, and especially
for segments with offsets.
This reverts commit 11e0f451eb.
When pushing a sticky event out of a pad with a pad probe or pad offset,
those should not be applied to the event that is actually stored in the
event but only in the event sent downstream. The pad probe and pad
offsets are conceptually *after* the pad, added by external code and
should not affect any internal state of pads/elements.
Also storing the modified event has the side-effect that a re-sent event
would arrive with any previous modifications done by the same pad probe
again inside that pad probe, and it would have to check if its
modifications are already applied or not.
For sink pads and generally for events arriving in a pad, some further
changes are still needed and those are tracked in
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765049
In addition, the commit also had a refcounting problem with events,
causing already destroyed events to be stored inside pads.
Previously gst_buffer_list_foreach() could modify (drop or replace)
buffers in non-writable lists, which could cause all kinds of problems
if other code also has a reference to the list and assumes that it stays
the same.

gst_buffer_list_new_sized(0) will cause an underflow in a calculation
which then makes it try to allocate huge amounts of memory, which
may lead to aborts.

In the case where the user sets a new padprobeinfo->data in a probe
where the data is a sticky event, the new sticky event should be automatically
sticked on the probed pad.

Remove unneeded reapplication of patterns. Besides being
superfluous (gst_debug_reset_threshold already applies
patterns) it was also wrong and didn't stop checking patterns
after the first match (broken in 67e9d139).
Also fix up unit test which checked for the wrong order.

Occasionally this test would fail, especially if the system is under load,
because the position query would pick up the last position from the
last buffer timestamp which has a lower timestamp than what we're
looking for. The sleep is long enough, however. It's unclear to me why
exactly this happens but there seems to be some kind of scheduling
issue going on as the streaming thread floods the sink with buffers.
Let's throttle the fakesrc to 100 buffers per second and make the sink
sync to the clock to restore some sanity. It should be totally sufficient
to test what we want to test, and seems to make things reliable here.
Scale the number of threads used in the stress tests according to
the number of cores/cpus. We want some contention, but we also
don't want too much contention, as some operating systems are
better at handling 100 threads running wild on a single core
than others.
Add header with structure sizes for 64-bit windows as well.
They're almost the same as on Linux, but it looks like things
like padding unions get aligned slightly differently so there
are a handful of differences:
sizeof(GstGhostPad) is 528, expected 536
sizeof(GstPad) is 512, expected 520
sizeof(GstPadProbeInfo) is 64, expected 72
sizeof(GstProxyPad) is 520, expected 528
The test checks that categories not covered by the pattern in the
GST_DEBUG string have debug level GST_LEVEL_DEFAULT set, but previous
tests mess with the default threshold, which made this test fail on
Windows or when run with CK_FORK=no. Fix this by resetting everything
at the beginning, and then also do a sanity check afterwards.
When registering categories after gst_init() we would re-check *all*
categories against the existing GST_DEBUG patterns again, whereas
it's enough to just check the new category. Moreover, we would parse
the GST_DEBUG pattern string again and re-add that to the existing
pattern list for every newly-registered debug category, and then
check that against all categories of course. This made registering
categories after gst_init() very very slow.
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.
An object that can be waited on and asked for asynchronous values.
In much the same way as promise/futures in js/java/etc
A callback can be installed for when the promise changes state.

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().

Boy scout rule. Make is a little less painful to debug the tests by using
fail_unless_equals_{uint64,int64,float} where appropriate. Ideally the large
tests would be splitted to avoid guessing data dependencies.
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

Need to pass -DGST_DISABLE_DEPRECATED to avoid warnings when
testing deprecated API such as gst_uri_construct().
Also remove #ifndef GST_DISABLE_DEPRECATED guard from header
file, we don't use those any more for functions, the
GST_DEPRECATED_FOR macro is enough.
The gst_uri_construct function was escaping the location string
as a generic uri string. This is incorrect since the slash('/')
characters are reserved for use in this exact case. The patch
changes the escape_string function mode to handle the path correctly.
I have deleted the escape_string function since it is no longer being
used and have created a unit test for the function. I have also
deprecated this function in favour of the GstUri API.

This is something bindings can't handle and it causes leaks. Instead
move the ref_sink() to the explicit, new() constructors.
This means that abstract classes, and anything that can have subclasses,
will have to do ref_sink() in their new() function now. Specifically
this affects GstClock and GstControlSource.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=743062
Use g_object_new() instead which nowadays has a shortcut for the
no-properties check. It still does an extra GType check in the
function guard, but there's a pending patch to remove that
and it's hardly going to be a performance issue in practice,
even less so on a system that's compiled without run-time checks.
Alternative would be to move to the new g_object_new_properties()
with a fallback define for older glib versions, but it makes the
code look more unwieldy and doesn't seem worth it.
Fixes deprecation warnings when building against newer GLib versions.

If guessing that a string matches a flagset, be more thorough
at checking that the string following a string of hex:hex:
actually looks like a flag set string. Add some unit tests

Allows proper usage of structures in structures in caps. Subtraction
is not implemented due to complications with empty fields representing

As an usecase of URI fragment, it can indicate temporal or spatial
dimension of a media stream. To easily parse key-value pair,
newly added gst_uri_get_media_fragment_table () API will provide
the table of key-value pair likewise URI query.

This structure is always allocated by GStreamer, can't be
subclassed or extended, and is never allocated or used on
the stack, so we don't need any padding and can extend it
as we please.
Add unit test to ensure that.
It can be a normal execution path to do some map trials and there is
no need to worry the user in that case.
The application has to check the return value of gst_memory_map.
