Add support for buffering mode where we post BUFFERING messages based on the
level of the queues. It currently operates on the first queue that goes over or
under the high/low thresholds.
In buffering mode we want to ignore the max visible items to decide when the
queue is filled. Instead, we only look at the number of bytes and/or time in the
queue.
Don't shadow the sq argument in the underrun_cb function but use
a different variable name to iterate the other queues.
Use the same variable name in the overrun_cb function.
Split gst_queue_locked_enqueue() into variant for buffer and event to get rid of
the if() and make the code more readable (constant boolean parameters are never
nice). Removes the if (item) checks as we dereference the pointer before anyway.
Also apply the same idea of reusing the previous knowledge in
gst_queue_locked_dequeue to remove more type checks.
We know earlier on in the code whether we're handling an event or a buffer,
just pass that information through.
This commit and the previous commit reduce instruction fetch:
* when pushing buffer (_chain) by 10%
* when popping buffer (_loop) by 3%
The task will always exist as long as its owner (i.e. the pad) and that
owner's owner (i.e. multiqueue) exist.
Reduces the number of instruction fetches by 36%.
We know whether we have a buffer or an event, use that instead of going
trough the expensive GLib typecheck.
The overall instruction fetch reduction introduced by this commit and the
2 previous commits:
* receiving a buffer (_chain) by 20%
* popping a buffer (_loop) by 14%
Numbers acquired through callgrind passing 100000 buffers through queue.
Pads have their GstSingleQueue stored as element private data
so there's no need to iterate over the list of single queues
every time. Also every pad only has a single internal link so
use a single iterator instead of a complex custom iterator.
Set the element private data of the pad to NULL when freeing the
single queue.
If downstream returns error and upstream has already delivered
everything (including EOS) and will no longer be around to find
out that we paused (and why), post error message. Fixes#589991.
When we have an input buffer with caps and when those caps are different from
the caps we want, only then make a writable copy of the input buffer as the
output buffer and set the caps on that output buffer. This avoids some cases
where we took a subbuffer for setting caps that were the same.
Users should never see the term 'file descriptor', much less a file
descriptor number, in an error message. Put that into the debug
string instead and use the default error message.
The compiler suggests to add some () to indicate if the && or the || takes
priority, so reflow code a bit so we don't have to add yet another layer
of (). Hopefully this was the intended meaning of the code.
When min-threshold is set on a queue, it is possible that one of
the minima remains unsatisfied while one of the maxima is already
reached. Therefore, always consider the queue non-empty if it is full.
Fixes#585433.
