This is racy if the state lock of the parent bin is not taken. The
parent bin might've just checked the flag in another thread and as the
next step proceed to change the child element's state.
We need to take the state lock here to ensure that we're
not currently just before setting the state of this child
element. Otherwise it can happen that we removed the element
here and e.g. set it to NULL state, and shortly afterwards
have another thread set it to a higher state again as part of
a state change for the whole bin.
When adding an element to the bin this is not needed as we
require callers to always ensure after adding to the bin that
the new element is set to the correct state.
There was a dead assignment used outside of the bin/pipeline creation
which was confusing (and unused). Just move that variable to
where it is actually used.
(Note that that variable was not needed outside of that block since
the refactoring done in 2b33d33185 )
Fix corruption of meta list head when removing metas at the beginning
during iteration. Linked list handling in gst_buffer_foreach_meta
failed to track the previous entry and update the correct next pointer
when removing items from beyond the head of the list, resulting in
arbitrary list pointer corruption.
Closes#332
Currently in Python it would become a signed 64 bit value but should
actually be an unsigned 32 bit value with all bits set.
This is the same problem as with GST_MESSAGE_TYPE_ANY.

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.
Allows determining from downstream what the expected bitrate of a stream
may be which is useful in queue2 for setting time based limits when
upstream does not provide timing information.

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.
This is based on g_clear_object(). Basically, you can use this instead
of using gst_mini_object_unref (which needs to be preceded by a NULL-check).
Also fixes#275
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.

The Harware factory type classifier allows elements (decoders and encoders,
mostly) to advertize they rely on hardware devices to perform encoding or
decoding operations. This classifier can be used by applications to filter and
select only the elements that use hardware devices, for instance to ensure
zero-copy support is enabled for a specific pipeline.

In some cases the system protection ID is not present in the contents
or in their metadata.
This define is used to set the value of the "system_id" field in GstProtectionEvent,
with this value, the application will use an external information to choose which
protection system to use.
Example: The matroskademux uses this value in the case of encrypted WebM,
the application will choose the appropriate protection system based on the information
received through EME API.

The documentation incorrectly used to state that the pads were
not automatically activated when added, whereas we actually do
that when appropriate.
Callers of gst_element_add_pad must not hold the object lock,
which implies that they cannot perform the same checks as
add_pad in a non-racy manner.
This updates the documentation, and removes the g_warning
that was output before performing automatic activation.

Add new GST_API_EXPORT in config.h and use that for GST_*_API
decorators instead of GST_EXPORT.
The right export define depends on the toolchain and whether
we're using -fvisibility=hidden or not, so it's better to set it
to the right thing directly than hard-coding a compiler whitelist
in the public header.
We put the export define into config.h instead of passing it via the
command line to the compiler because it might contain spaces and brackets
and in the autotools scenario we'd have to pass that through multiple
layers of plumbing and Makefile/shell escaping and we're just not going
to be *that* lucky.
The export define is only used if we're compiling our lib, not by external
users of the lib headers, so it's not a problem to put it into config.h
Also, this means all .c files of libs need to include config.h
to get the export marker defined, so fix up a few that didn't
include config.h.
This commit depends on a common submodule commit that makes gst-glib-gen.mak
add an #include "config.h" to generated enum/marshal .c files for the
autotools build.

For each lib we build export its own API in headers when we're
building it, otherwise import the API from the headers.
This fixes linker warnings on Windows when building with MSVC.
The problem was that we had defined all GST_*_API decorators
unconditionally to GST_EXPORT. This was intentional and only
supposed to be temporary, but caused linker warnings because
we tell the linker that we want to export all symbols even
those from externall DLLs, and when the linker notices that
they were in external DLLS and not present locally it warns.
What we need to do when building each library is: export
the library's own symbols and import all other symbols. To
this end we define e.g. BUILDING_GST_FOO and then we define
the GST_FOO_API decorator either to export or to import
symbols depending on whether BUILDING_GST_FOO is set or not.
That way external users of each library API automatically
get the import.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797185
This is for use by the various GST_*_API decorators and
will be what they get defined to when a library API is being
used by external users of that library (not the library itself
whilst it's being compiled).
In most cases it will simply map to a plain 'extern' but on
Windows with MSVC it will need to map to __declspec(dllimport).
For functions this is not strictly needed, but for exported
variables it is.

gst_element_post_message() takes ownership of the message so we need to increase
its refcount until we no longer require access to its data (context_type).

And only ever use the non-live values if all pads are non-live,
otherwise only use the results of all live pads.
It's unclear what one would use the values for in the non-live case, but
by this we at least pass them through correctly then.
This is a follow-up for 794944f779, which
causes wrong latency calculations if the first pad is non-live but a
later pad is actually live. In that case the live values would be
accumulated together with the values of the non-live first pad,
generally causing wrong min/max latencies to be calculated.
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.
Instead, use -fvisibility=hidden and explicit exports via GST_EXPORT.
This should result in consistent behaviour for the autotools and
Meson builds where this is done already, and will allow us to drop
the win32 .def files.
IDLE probes that are directly called when being added will increase /
decrease the "number of IDLE probes running" counter around the call,
but when running from the streaming thread this won't happen.
This has the effect that when running from a streaming thread it is
possible to push serialized events or data out of the pad without
problems, but otherwise it would deadlock because serialized data would
wait for the IDLE probe to finish first (it is blocking after all!).
With this change it will now always consistently deadlock instead of
just every once in a while, which should make it obvious why this
happens and prevent racy deadlocks in application code.

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.

Every container of miniobjects now needs to store itself as parent in
the child object, and remove itself again at a later time.
A miniobject is only writable if there is at most one parent, and that
parent is writable itself, and if the reference count of the miniobject
is 1.
GstBuffer (for memories), GstBufferList (for buffers) and GstSample (for
caps, buffer, bufferlist) was updated accordingly.
Without this it was possible to have e.g. a bufferlist with refcount 2
in two places, modifying the same buffer with refcount 1 at the same
time.

Windows doesn't seem to have an equivalent of POLLPRI so disabled those
functions on this platform.
This API can be used, for example, to wait for video4linux events which
are using POLLPRI.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=794977
Current code was considering "can read" as having either POLLIN or POLLPRI being
set.
This may lead to client being awaken because of POLLPRI, starting a blocking
read and getting stuck because there is actually nothing to read.
This patch removes POLLPRI handling in read code and I'll add specific
API to wait for POLLPRI.
