It might happen that we popped the message before writing of the control
happened. In this case we just have to retry again a bit later, and failure to
do so will cause an additional byte in the control and the GSource /
gst_poll_wait() to always wake up again immediately.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=750397
And also mention what the expected values of errno are going to be.
write_control() will only ever return FALSE if there was a critical error. It
will never return because of EINTR, EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK.
read_control() will return FALSE if there was no byte to read, in which case
errno would be EWOULDBLOCK.
In all other cases there was a critical error.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=750397
On timer GstPolls it will cause the control socket state to become
inconsistent as now one less read_control() than write_control() be would
needed.
Similarly, read_control() and write_control() are only valid on timer
GstPolls.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=750397
This might fail even under correct usage, e.g. if read_control() is called
from another thread before write_control() finished in another. It has to be
retried then, or other measures have to be taken, depending on how it is used
by the surrounding code.

This addresses slightly different race conditions on Linux and Windows, and
fixes gst_poll_read_control() when control_pending == 0.
On Linux, the socketpair() used for control should not be made O_NONBLOCK.
If there's any propagation delay between set->control_write_fd.fd and
set->control_read_fd.fd, even the mutex now held will not be sufficient to
prevent a race condition. There's no benefit to using O_NONBLOCK, here.
Only liabilities.
For Windows, it's necessary to fix the race condition between testing
set->control_pending and performing WAKE_EVENT()/RELEASE_EVENT(). This is
accomplished by acquiring and holding set->lock, for both of these operations.
We could optimize the Linux version by making this Windows-specific.
For consistency with the Linux implementation, Windows' RELEASE_EVENT()
has also been made to block, although it should never happen.
Also, changed release_wakeup() to return TRUE and decrement control_pending
only when > 0. Furthermore, RELEASE_EVENT() is called only when
control_pending == 1.
Finally, changed control_pending to use normal, non-atomic arithmetic
operations, since it's now protected by set->lock.
Note: even though the underlying signaling mechanisms are blocking,
release_wakeup() is effectively non-blocking, as it will only attempt to read
from control_read_fd.fd after a byte has been written to control_write_fd.fd
or WaitForSingleObject() after it's been signaled.

GCC emits an error for this with -Werror:
plugin.c:22:1: error: 'gst_plugin_desc' initialized and declared 'extern' [-Werror]
This matches how glib does symbol exporting.

If the prototypes in the public API have dllimport in them when building
statically on Windows, the compiler will look for symbols with symbol
mangling and indirection corresponding to a DLL. This will cause a build
failure when trying to link tests/examples/etc.
External users of GStreamer also need to define -DGST_STATIC_COMPILATION
if they want to link to static gstreamer libraries on Windows.
A similar version of this patch has been committed to all gstreamer
repositories.

Ensure we do not attempt to destroy the current range. Doing so
causes the current one to be left dangling, and it may be dereferenced
later, leading to a crash.
This can happen with a very small queue2 ring buffer (10000 bytes)
and 4 kB buffers.
repro case:
gst-launch-1.0 fakesrc sizetype=2 sizemax=4096 ! \
queue2 ring-buffer-max-size=1000 ! fakesink sync=true

This patch handle the case when you have 1 pad (so the fast path is
being used) but this pad is removed. If we are in allow-not-linked, we
should return GST_FLOW_OK, otherwise, we should return GST_FLOW_UNLINKED
and ignore the meaningless return value obtained from pushing.

If we were in PAUSED, the current clock time and base time don't have much to
do with the running time anymore as the clock might have advanced while we
were PAUSED. The system clock does that for example, audio clocks often don't.
Updating the start time in PAUSED will cause a) the wrong position to be
reported, b) step events to step not just the requested amount but the amount
of time we spent in PAUSED. The start time should only ever be updated when
going from PLAYING to PAUSED to remember the current running time (to be able
to compensate later when going to PLAYING for the clock time advancing while
PAUSED), not when we are already in PAUSED.
Based on a patch by Kishore Arepalli <kishore.arepalli@gmail.com>
The updating of the start time when the state is lost was added in commit
ba943a82c0 to fix the position reporting when
the state is lost. This still works correctly after this change.

We don't do calculations with different units (buffer offsets and bytes)
anymore but have functions for:
1) getting the number of bytes since the last discont
2) getting the offset (and pts/dts) at the last discont
and the previously added function to get the last offset and its distance from
the current adapter position.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=766647
API: gst_buffer_prev_offset
API: gst_buffer_get_offset_from_discont
The gst_buffer_get_offset_from_discont() method allows retrieving the current
offset based on the GST_BUFFER_OFFSET of the buffers that were pushed in.
The offset will be set initially by the GST_BUFFER_OFFSET of
DISCONT buffers, and then incremented by the sizes of the following
buffers.
The gst_buffer_prev_offset() method allows retrievent the previous
GST_BUFFER_OFFSET regardless of flags. It works in the same way as
the other gst_buffer_prev_*() methods.

We already had a _full() version, but having that alone seems inconsistent.
Add a non-full version that mirrors the behaviour of gst_pad_link() vs
gst_pad_link_full().
- we know number of filter items is not going to change,
but compiler doesn't
- only do GST_IS_TRACER check for GObjects, not mini objects
- use non-type check cast macros in performance critical paths
It is better to have separate tests:
1) the test name will tell what is broekn when the test fails
2) we still run the other tests when one assert fails
3) the tests are easier to understand
4) we don't rely on sie effect of previous actions
5) ...
Also ix the assertion message for the name checks (Gst -> fakeobject).
GObject allow calling g_object_notify() within set_property() and
won't notify it twice. As it was raised during review, add a unit test to
make sure.

For GST_EXPORT define and also things like GST_DISABLE_REGISTRY.
Hopefully fixes the following build failure on cerbero-cross-mingw32:
helpers/gst-plugin-scanner.c:50: undefined reference to `_imp___gst_disable_registry_cache'
This static library gets included directly into libgstreamer-1.0.so, so it needs
the same GST_EXPORTS definition as the rest of the code that's compiled into
that otherwise it will try to find the constants it uses from gstinfo via DLL
importing (__declspec(dllimport)).
Fixes https://ci.gstreamer.net/job/cerbero-cross-mingw32/4393/
__declspec(dllexport/import) are supported by GCC and are needed for
properly generating code that fetches the values of constants from DLLs
built with __declspec(dllexport) which happens when anything using
GST_EXPORT is built with MSVC.
See: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/619w14ds.aspx
Essentially, if you built gstreamer with MSVC and then tried to use
constants from it (such as GST_TYPE_CAPS) in a plugin, GCC would
retrieve the address of the value instead of the value itself.
