Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/gstpad.c: (gst_pad_check_schedulers),
(gst_pad_can_link_filtered), (gst_pad_link_filtered),
(gst_pad_link_prepare):
check that pads that get linked belong to the same manager. The old
code allowed linking elements before putting them into bins, so it
worked to link them and then put them in different threads, which
lead to weird behaviour.
Since this effectively disallows linking elements before putting
them in a bin, some applications might not work after this and error
out. If these applications are too critical, we might need to revert
that patch. Please test this before the next release...

Fixes to maintain internal consistency of the scheduler data
structures.
- adding an enabled group to a chain should increment the
number of enabled elements in that chain.
- removing an enabled group from a chain could disable the
chain.
- removing a disabled group from a chain could enable the
chain.
- add g_assert when internal inconsistency is detected.
- adding an element to a group could increase the number of
links this group has with other groups.
- merging two groups also merges the chains.
- also show group links in the _show method.
Please report regressions ASAP, so I can fix them.

Clean up, use for loops instead of while loops while iterating
over lists.
Original commit message from CVS:

in debug message.
(gst_spider_create_and_plug): Improve debug message.
General: Replace while loops which iterates over GLists with for

for gst_spider_identity_plug

this function fixes (bug #140298).
* gst/gstvalue.h:
Original commit message from CVS:
* common/m4/gst-arch.m4: Implmenent a whitelist and blacklist
for GST_UNALIGNED_ACESS, since we essentially know which archs

implement enforcing discont events before buffers are passed. This
allows state changes of only some elements and later correctly going
on where they left off (or in short: you can now set audio sinks to
NULL to release the device when the pipeline is paused)
* gst/gstpad.c: (gst_pad_call_chain_function),
(gst_pad_call_get_function):
* gst/gstpad.h:

many weird reasons why it doesn't work. Return STOPPED instead.
decoupled elemts' schedulability doesn't depend on bufpens.

understand and extend
Original commit message from CVS:
2004-04-03 Andy Wingo <wingo@pobox.com>
* gst/schedulers/gstoptimalscheduler.c (GstOptSchedulerGroupLink):
Rename ->group1 and ->group2 to ->src and ->sink, respectively.
This allows better introspection of pipeline topology.
(add_to_chain): Don't do trickery to put loop elements first;
rather, queue a chain sort by marking the chain as dirty.
(remove_from_chain): Mark the chain dirty.
(sort_chain): New function. Sorts the group list so that terminal
sinks are first. This means elements on the sink side will be
preferentially sscheduled before elements on the src side of the
pipeline.
(chain_recursively_migrate_group): Use OTHER_GROUP_LINK.
(schedule_chain): If the chain is marked DIRTY, call sort_chain.
(gst_opt_scheduler_pad_link, gst_opt_scheduler_pad_unlink)
(group_inc_link): Change argument and variable names to match the
new link structure member names (src and sink).

Original commit message from CVS:
* docs/random/ds/0.9-suggested-changes:
Add a note to change handoff use in fakesrc to be usable in
a more generic way (fakesrc should be renamed to appsrc or so).
* gst/elements/gstfakesrc.c: (gst_fakesrc_class_init):
Change signal type to scope, so we can fill the buffer in the
handoff handler (that's the whole use of this signal...).
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/registries/gstxmlregistry.c
(gst_xml_registry_rebuild_recurse): Fix the algorithm to
determine if a file is a G_MODULE. The old one discards paths
containing "so" somewhere in the middle. My home directory is
called "soto". Go figure...
Original commit message from CVS:

set the offset of the buffer to the requested offset
* gst/elements/gsttypefind.c: (stop_typefinding):
revert patch 1.18 (which I unfortunately don't know the reason for).
This is needed to allow downstream elements to seek. Otherwise
typefind might overwrite a previous seek by downstream elements.
This lead to errors with id3tag and typefind on some mp3s.

impossible to control if a link to a decoupled element was already
removed from a scheduler or not.
* gst/schedulers/cothreads_compat.h:
* gst/schedulers/gthread-cothreads.h:
