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.
Some tests (e.g. elements/capsfilter) have pipelines with dangling
sinkpads and without a sink element. These pipelines can never post
an EOS message (because this is only valid by a sink) and as such
should never get an EOS message posted by the bin.
API: gst_mini_object_weak_ref()
API: gst_mini_object_weak_unref()
Add weak referencing functionality to GstMiniObject, which
allows to get notifications when an mini object is destroyed
but doesn't increase the real refcount. This is mostly
useful for bindings.
Fixes bug #609473.
API: GstElement::state_changed
This is always called when the state of an element has changed and
before the corresponding state-changed message is posted on the bus.
This allows to get the internal pad of ghostpads and
proxypads without using gst_pad_iterate_internal_links()
and is much more convenient.
The internal pad of a ghostpad is the pad of the opposite direction
that is used to link to the ghostpad target.
This prevents adding duplicates over and over again to the resulting
caps if they already describe the new intersection result.
While this changes intersection from O(n*m) to O(n^2*m), it results in
smaller caps, which in the end will decrease further processing times.
For example in an audioconvert ! audioconvert ! audioconvert pipeline,
when forwarding the downstream caps preference in basetransform
(see e26da72de25a91c3eaad9f7c8b2f53ba888a0394) this results in
16 instead of 191 caps structures.
Resetting the result is not necessary when resyncing because
pads that previously got the event will be skipped and we
need to consider the results of the previous pushes.
Add a GType to the metadata to identify the GstMetaInfo.
We can remove the (de)serialize functions for the metadata because we can
register GTtype transform functions between various types to implement
serialization later.
gst_structure_get_type() -> _gst_structure_type to avoid method calls for
getting the GType that initialized at the start.
Hide some structure fields in private data so that we can change the
implementation.
Move structure equality check from caps.c to structure.c where it belongs.
When we get the structure of an event, make sure it also contains the fields
that we keep in fast variables, this way we can easily serialize and debug
the events. We would probably later simply prefer to register a transform
function to G_TYPE_STRING and G_TYPE_BYTEARRAY etc..
Hide the GstStructure of the event in the implementation specific part so that
we can change it.
Add methods to check and make the event writable.
Add a new method to get a writable GstStructure of the element.
Avoid directly accising the event structure.
Fix replace of caps events when linking: we need to unref the old ones.
Make sure we pass error values around.
Move backward compat code into the default handler for now.
Don't use the buffer caps for negotiation anymore but use the CAPS events.
Make the _set_caps method produce the CAPS event, add some backward
compatibility code to trigger the setcaps functions on src and sinkpads.
Remove all negotiation code from the chain functions.
Don't use the GST_PAD_CAPS variable anymore to store the caps but retrieve the
caps from the sticky event array.
Remove the context again, adding an extra layer of refcounting and object
creation to manage an array is too complicated and inefficient. Use a simple
array again.
Also implement event updates when calling gst_pad_chain() and
gst_event_send_event() directly.
The refactoring of gst_debug_add_log_function() now causes build failure when
debug-logging is turned off. Just move it to the conditional part of the header.
Pass the context downstream when it got updated.
Have two ways of informing downstream of events, do a full context update when
the CONTEXT_PENDING flag is set and simply forward the event otherwise.
Set the CONTENT_PENDING flag when linking pads.
We don't need to old context anymore when updating the context of a pad.
This prevents adding duplicates over and over again to the resulting
caps if they already describe the new intersection result.
While this changes intersection from O(n*m) to O(n^2*m), it results in
smaller caps, which in the end will decrease further processing times.
For example in an audioconvert ! audioconvert ! audioconvert pipeline,
when forwarding the downstream caps preference in basetransform
(see e26da72de25a91c3eaad9f7c8b2f53ba888a0394) this results in
16 instead of 191 caps structures.
If there is no custom getcaps function on a sink pad, then changes in
downstream caps will never be propagated, so there is no point in trying to
renegotiate the capabilities.
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.
Resetting the result is not necessary when resyncing because
pads that previously got the event will be skipped and we
need to consider the results of the previous pushes.
Add a new CAPS event that will be used to negotiate downstream elements. It'll
also stick on pad so that we can remove the GstCaps field on pads and the
GstCaps field on buffers.
Copy the sticky events from the srcpad to the sinkpad when linking pads. Set the
STICKY_PENDING flag to make sure that the sticky events are dispatched before
pushing the next buffer to the element.
Add the sticky flag to events and a sticky index.
Keep sticky events in an array on each pad.
Remove GST_EVENT_SRC(), it is causing refcycles with sticky events, was not used
and is not very interesting anyway.
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.
Add a query to request allocation parameters and optionally a bufferpool as
well. This should allow elements to discover downstream capabilities and also
use the downstream allocators.
Drop in old GstBus code for the release to play it safe, since
regressions that are apparently hard to track down and reproduce
have been reported (on windows/OSX mostly) against the lockfree
version, and more time is needed to fix them.

When a plugin file no longer exists, e.g. because it's been removed or
renamed, don't remove all features in the registry based on the *name*
of the plugin they belong to, but only remove those who actually belong
to that particular plugin (object/pointer).
This fixes issues of plugin features disappearing when a plugin .so file
is renamed.

... which happens in particular flushing a bus, possibly as part
of a state change, e.g. when having a pipeline in a pipeline
and then changing state back to NULL. The interior pipeline
will/might then flush the bus, which is a child bus from the
parent which does not have a poll anymore these days.

This allows to add pad templates and set metadata in class_init instead of
base_init. base_init is a concept that is not supported by almost all
languages and copying the templates/metadata for subclasses is the more
intuitive way of doing things.
Subclasses can override pad templates of parent classes by adding a new
template with the same now.
Also gst_element_class_add_pad_template() now takes ownership of the
pad template, which was assumed by all code before anyway.
Fixes bug #491501.
Based on patch by: Daniel Macks <dmacks@netspace.org>
Earlier versions of OSX don't support proper multiarch and
trying to use /usr/bin/arch -foo with those versions would
just break things.

1) We need to lock and get a strong ref to the parent, if still there.
2) If it has gone away, we need to handle that gracefully.
This is necessary in order to safely modify a running pipeline. Has been
observed when a streaming thread is doing a buffer_alloc() while an
application thread sends an event on a pad further downstream, and from
within a pad probe (holding STREAM_LOCK) carries out the pipeline plumbing
while the streaming thread has its buffer_alloc() in progress.
