Simplify the API, we don't need the consumed and produced output
arguments. The caller needs to use the _get_in_frames/get_out_frames API
to check how much input is needed and how much output will be produced.
In this specific case it wouldn't cause problems as we only ever access the
first array element, but let's make explicit what is happening here.

The filters' floating references are sinked during set_property() already,
which means that GstBin takes a new reference when adding the filter to it.
Get rid of the additional reference after adding the filter to the bin.
Unconditionally adding the template caps when proxying the caps query will play
havoc with decoders that attempt to choose an output format based on some caps
features. Creating a sink that does not include those caps features and a
decoder/parser/etc that preferentially chooses some specific caps feature when
available, will always return the decoder/parser/etc template caps and choose a
feature that downstream will be unable to support.
Fix by limiting the addition of the template caps to when the result is actually
empty.

This reverts commit 77dc09c3a9.
It can cause the FLUSH_START/STOP events to go to the sink elements, which
then causes state changes and various other problems. We shouldn't really
flush downstream here, the idea is to do *draining*.
Apart from that the testcase for the original bug here works without this
commit now.
Since the loops increasing count from 0 are always run at least
once (if count < 1), count will always be at least one when
compared to the drop/dup conditions.

Add a property and logic to send a GstNetworkMessage event containing
the message that was received from a client. This can be used to
implement simply bidirectional communication.
Add a property and logic to send a GstNetworkMessageDispatched
event upstream to notify that a buffer has been sent. This can be used
to keep track of what client received what buffers.
Add a property to handle GstNetworkMessage events. These events contain
a buffer that is sent on the socket to allow for simple bidirectional
communication.
Otherwise we'll remove that element while keeping its buffering message in our
list, and because of that never ever report buffering 100% as that element
will always be at a lower percentage.
This fixes e.g. seeking over Period boundaries in DASH and various other
issues when buffering happens between group switches.
Also use a new mutex for protecting the buffering messages. The object lock is
already used by gst_object_has_as_ancestor() and we need to use it now for
checking if the buffering message sender has the to-be-removed element as
ancestor.
When we stop sending because we need more data, still keep a GSource
around to receive data from the clients.
Also handle read and write in the same go.
Make sure that any access to the GstDecodeBin's decode_chain
field is protected using the EXPOSE_LOCK. Also add a simple
reference counter to the GstDecodeChain structure so that when
the type_found signal fires it can hold onto the decode chain
even while the EXPOSE_LOCK is not held. This should fix a
race condition if the type_found signal fires right in the
middle of a state change that messes with the same decode
chain.

Just setting the ghostpad as flushing wasn't enough. It needs to be
consistent on the internal proxypad also, otherwise you end up in
situations where:
* a pending buffer on the target pad triggers the sticky event
propagation
* the default implementation sees that the proxypad is not flushing,
so it tries to push it to the other pad (the actual ghostpad)
* the ghostpad is flushing, so returns FALSE
* the push_event function sees that pushing the event failed...
* ... and pending buffer push returns GST_FLOW_ERROR, instead of
GST_FLOW_FLUSHING
By using gst_pad_set_active(FALSE), we ensure that both the ghostpad
and the proxypad are flushing/deactivated. The situation above will
no longer occur, and a GST_FLOW_FLUSHING will be returned.

Send event directly to playsink instead of letting GstBin iterate
over all sink elements. The latter might send the event multiple times
in case the SEEK causes a reconfiguration of the pipeline, as can easily
happen with adaptive streaming demuxers.
What would then happen is that the iterator would be reset, we send the
event again, and on the second time it will fail in the majority of cases
because the pipeline is still being reconfigured

It's only relevant for each group, and by storing it in the group
we have locking and everything else like for the other buffering-related
variables. Locking looks a bit fishy still, but it was like that for a long
time already so shouldn't be worse than before.
Overview:
There are some of interleaved streams which has long-term location of audio data.
It mean the audio data is located far away more than multiqueue size.
In this case, because of multiqueue overrun, the pipeline is stopped.
To prevent hanging-like state, the decodebin needs to handle the queue size.
Caused:
The multiqueue size is not enough, the pipeline will stay being stalled status
and decodebin cannot complete to build decode chain.
In this issue file, decodebin did not receive no_more_pads signal or audio data yet.
Steps to Reproduce:
play the high-resolution(4K file) files or some streaming media(push mode).
Actual Results:
There is no audio or subtitle.
We can see only video or infinite loading.
Resolution:
Decodebin detect this problem, and add extra buffer size to multiqueue.
The multiqueue is larger than before, the next data can be pushed the downstream element.
Additional Information:
The max-preroll extra buffer size is set 8MB.
We can use total pre-roll buffer 10MB.
Only first overrun callback can handle multiqueue size.

When an upstream element wants to flush downstream, we need to take
all chains/groups into consideration.
To that effect, when a FLUSH_START event is seen, after having it
sent downstream we mark all those chains/groups as "drained" (as if
they had seen a EOS event on the endpads).
When a FLUSH_STOP event is received, we check if we need to switch groups.
This is done by checking if there are next groups. If so, we will switch
over to the latest next_group. The actual switch will be done when
that group is blocked.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606382
When upstream events/queries reach sinkpads of unlinked groups (i.e.
no longer linked to the upstream demuxer), this patch attempts to find
the linked group and forward it upstream of that group.
This is done by adding upstream event/query probes on new group sinkpads
and then:
* Checking if the pad is linked or not (has a peer or not)
* If there is a peer, just let the event/query follow through normally
* If there is no peer, we find a pad to which to proxy it and return
GST_PROBE_HANDLED if it succeeded (allowing the event/query to be properly
returned to the initial called)
Note that this is definitely not thread-safe for the time being
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606382
When we see prefix NALs before a Subset SPS has been spotted,
it might just be because the stream was truncated at the
start, so don't count those as either 'bad' or 'good' packets.
Since the videorate element just duplicates or drops frames
to achieve the desired framerate, it can accept video/x-bayer media
(in any format), which are not present in the current caps.
Just add "video/x-bayer(ANY);" to the caps of the static pad template
(fixing line style to pass the indent commit hook).

When switching to a new chain it might be that this new chain

Can happen with mpegts that might delay adding pads or pushing data
until it has found the PMT/PAT/PCR and that may take a while depending
on the stream.
It happened frequently with HLS:

If the sink has properties named volume and mute, we have no idea about their
meaning. The streamvolume interface standardizes the meaning.
In the case of osxaudiosink for example, the current volume property has a
range of 0.0 to 1.0, but we need 0.0 to 10.0 or similar. Also osxaudiosink
has no mute property. As such, the volume element should be used here instead.

When a stream has a variable framerate, videorate calculates it and
forces it on the output caps. However, the code in _transform_caps()
currently also does that if the transform is going in the opposite
direction (GST_PAD_SRC), so during a renegotiation it tries to force
upstream to use the calculated framerate and it fails.

In case upstream does not provide videorate with framerate information,
it will detect the current framerate from the buffer it received,
but if downstream forces the use of variable framerate (most probably
through the use of a caps filter with framerate = 0 / 1), videorate will
respect that.
And add some unit tests
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734424
In the case the framerate is variable (represented by framerate=0/1),
we currently end up loop pushing the first buffer and then recompute
diff1 and diff2 without updating the videorate->next_ts at all
leading to infinitely looping pushing that first buffer.
In the case of variable framerate, we should just compute the next_ts
as previous_pts + previous_duration.

If a new pad is added after playbin has been put to READY/NULL it
should ignore new pads as it is shutting down.
This can happen when the pipeline fails to preroll (is still in READY)
and the user gives up on waiting or an error that doesn't reach
the demuxer occurs (on some event handling) and it will continue to
work and exposing pads while playbin has been put to NULL.
Without this check an input-selector is created and set to PAUSED
state, preventing playbin from properly shutting down in case it
has data blocked inside it.
audio_convert_convert unpacks to default format (signed) before calling
quantize, and the unsigned variants were equivalent to signed anyway,
so we just get rid of them.
Since range size is always 2^n, we can simply use modulo (implemented
with a bitmask).
The previous implementation used 64-bit integer division, which is
done in software on ARMv7. Although the divisor was constant, the
division could not be transformed into "multiplication by magic number"
since the dividend was 64-bit.
The now-unused and not-so-fast gst_fast_random_(u)int32_range functions
were removed.
Also, implementing bug fixes:
1) ADD_DITHER_TPDF_HF_I no longer discards bias.
2) We change TPDF's noise range to be the same as RPDF's. Previously,
RPDF's noise ranged:
{ bias - dither, bias + dither }
while TPDF's noise ranged:
{ bias/2 - dither/2, bias/2 + dither/2 - 1 } +
{ bias/2 - dither/2, bias/2 + dither/2 - 1 } =
{ bias - dither, bias + dither - 2 }
Now, both range:

This fixes a race where the use-buffering property on a multiqueue was

A later commit will introduce a new socketsrc element which will similarly

* Don't bother polling, just do a blocking read, the `GCancellable` will
take care of unlocking. This should also be faster on MS Windows where
the GIO documentation for `g_socket_get_available_bytes` states: "Note
that on Windows, this function is rather inefficient in the UDP case".
* Implement `GstPushSrc.fill` rather than `GstPushSrc.create`. This means
that we will be using the downstream allocator which may be more
efficient. It also means that socketsrc is likely to respect its
"blocksize" property (assuming that there is enough data available).

`socketsrc` can be considered a source counterpart to `multisocketsink`.
It can be considered a generalization of `tcpclientsrc` and
`tcpserversrc`: it contains all the logic required to communicate over
the socket but none of the logic for creating the sockets/establishing
the connection in the first place, allowing the user to accomplish this
externally in whatever manner they wish making it applicable to other
types of sockets besides TCP.
This commit essentially copies the implementation directly from
tcpserversrc. Later patches will tidy the implementation up and
re-implement `tcpclientsrc` and `tcpserversrc` in terms of `socketsrc`.

If a buffer is made up of non-contiguous `GstMemory`s `gst_buffer_map`

This is a preparatory step for adding support to multisocketsink for

of the stream-format/alignment wanted by the decoders as parsers generally
support all possible stream-formats and alignments.
If caps on a newly added pad are NULL, analyze_new_pad will try to
acquire the chain lock to add a probe to the pad so the chain can
be built later. This comes from the streaming thread, in response
to headers or other buffers causing this pad to be added, so the
stream lock is taken.
Meanwhile, another thread might be destroying the chain from a
downward state change. This will cause the chain to be freed with
the chain lock taken, and some elements are set to NULL here, which
can include the parser. This causes pad deactivation, which tries
to take the element's pad's stream lock, deadlocking.
Fix this by keeping track of which elements need setting to NULL,
and only do this after the chain lock is released. Only the chain
manipulation needs to be locked, not the elements' state changes.

There was a deadlock between a thread changing decodebin/demuxer
state from PAUSED to READY, and another thread pushing data
when starting.
From the stack trace at
https://bug741355.bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=292471,
I deduce the following is happening, though I did not reproduce the
problem so I'm not sure this patch fixes it.
The streaming thread (thread 2 in that stack trace) takes the demuxer's
sink pad's stream lock in gst_ogg_demux_perform_seek_pull and will
activate a new chain. This ends up causing the expose lock being taken
in _pad_added_cb in decodebin.
Meanwhile, a state changed is triggered on thread 1, which takes the
expose lock in decodebin in gst_decode_bin_change_state, then frees
the previous chain, which ends up calling gst_pad_stop_task on the
demuxer's task, which in turn takes the demuxer's sink pad's stream
lock, deadlocking as both threads are now waiting for each other.
