Original commit message from CVS:
Enhanced debugging by making DEBUG() print out the cothread ID as well as
the process ID. cothread_getcurrent returns the current cothread ID, or
-1 if cothreads aren't set up in this process context.
Original commit message from CVS:
Rearranged cothread_switch a bit to move all the code for error conditions
to the end, using goto's to get there. This has the presumed advantage of
consolidating all the normally run code into one chunk, reducing jumps
(and the associated penalties in any modern processor) and limiting cache-
line usage. It may be instructive to look at the generated assembly for
this revision and the previous, to see if gcc is smart enough to do this
for us anyway.
If you want to turn off some of the checks (they are all checks for NULL
pointers, if you're curious) for a speed gain, disable the #define of
COTHREAD_PARANOID at the top.
Original commit message from CVS:
Docs updates.
Added LICENSE info to headers/code where missing in gst directory
Added a bonobo wrapper for the media player (it shows up in gshell but
locks up when activating the component, anyone?)
Fixed some XML save/load problems with arguments.
Original commit message from CVS:
Added seeking to the avi decoder by implementing pull_region.
Fixes to the asyncdisksrc.
Added thread specific data to the cothreads.
Original commit message from CVS:
The cothreads were not initialized in its thread context resulting in
severe stack corruption. This was very hard to track down.
We should be able now to modify some plugins to a loop based setup so that
we can get rid of the mp3parse and mp1videoparse elements.
Modified the GList to a GSList in the queue.
Original commit message from CVS:
A first attempt to fix the queues in a cothreaded pipeline.
Some fixes to the thread handling.
Fix a bug in gstreamer-config : gthread was not included.
gst_bin_create_plan() is now done in the READY state.
a bin with only another bin in it will now work with gst_bin_iterate.
Added some examples for the queues.
Original commit message from CVS:
Patch from Chris Emerson for PPC. cothreads stuff was causing segfaults,
because the stack needs to be initialised with a particular structure on
PPC, unlike x86 where it simply has items pushed or popped.
Added Chris to AUTHORS, for his trouble.
Original commit message from CVS:
Added gst_pipeline_add_sink/src to allow multiple sink cases and
more complex autoplugging. Update docs too.
Simplified the pipeline autoplugging code.
Changed the cothread case: One iteration is now a push from the src
element. The disk source does not change its state anymore on eof.
Better type setting for the ac3 parser/decoder and mpeg2parse.
Original commit message from CVS:
Added a quick hack to allow loop based elements to finish intead of
looping till infinity.
Added compile time i386 or plain C getbits implementation selection.
The vorbis decoder now is our first loop based element!
Original commit message from CVS:
Begun to add support for non i386 architectures, with the help of Chris
Emerson. Added bits to configure to figure out architecture, and added
some alternatives for PPC. Should cause no problems on i386, but I'll
check after this commit, but doesn't yet work on PPC by a fair way...
Original commit message from CVS:
Faster and modular getbits implementation.
Fixed a bug in the audiosink that could lock up your box on bad MB.
Modified the plugins to use the new getbits functions.
Original commit message from CVS:
This is a rather large patch. Switched on -Wall compiler flag and fixed
the warnings.
Made the Video for Linux more like it should be.
