Add a GstControlBinding class. This is a preparation for making the
controlsources generate double valued control curves and do the gparamspec
mapping in the control binding. Now the API in GstObject is again mostly
for convenience.

Dit not merge controller or basetransform changes.
Mark all metadata on the allocated buffers with a POOLED flag. When a buffer
returns to the pool, remove all metadata that did not have the POOLED flag. This
makes sure that we never leave unknown metadata to the buffers in the pool.
Add a singleton for ANY and EMPTY caps and make the GST_CAPS_ANY and
GST_CAPS_NONE point to them. This makes the API more consistent now
that the macro does not magically create a ref. It also solves some leaks in
places where the macro was used to register a padtemplate.
Move most of the code to a GstTimedValueControlSource. Split out the trigger
'interpolation mode' to a new control source class. Move tests and examples to
new api. Update docs.
Fixes#610338
An extra application preset dir help to organize presets created for special
purposes. Fixes#660760
API: gst_preset_set_app_dir(), gst_preset_get_app_dir()
Add private replacements for deprecated functions such as
g_mutex_new(), g_mutex_free(), g_cond_new() etc., mostly
to avoid the deprecation warnings. We can't change most of
these in 0.10 because they're part of our API and ABI.
Add a new simple miniobject that is a combination of a GstBuffer, GstCaps,
GstSegment and other arbitrary info organized in a GstStructure. This object can
be used to exchange samples between an element and the application or for
storing album art in tags etc.
Use GstFlowReturn to internally pass events between pads.
When we sticky events cause an error, translate this error into a GstFlowReturn.
Caps events will, for example, generate a NOT_NEGOTIATED return when the event
function returns an error.
This allows us then to refuse sending buffers if one of the sticky events is
refused and generate a correct error return value.
If we are dealing with a blocking probe, only then check if one the
blocking flags of the hook matches.
Add some more debug.
Make the pad unit test less racy.
This check is correct but unfortunately it's impossible to implement
in a threadsafe way because the caps could have changed in the meantime.
Fixes bug #659606.
Add a new event flag for sticky events so that multiple events of that type can
be stored on a pad at the same time. Change the _get_sticky_event() function to
loop over the multiple events of a type.
Change the foreach function to make it possible to removed and modify the sticky
events on a pad.
Use an variable size array now to store the events. This could later be
optimized some more.
When the foreach function told us to remove the buffer from the list, decrease
the length of the array or else we might read past the last item in the array.
Rewrite sticky events, trying to make it a bit more simple.
When sticky events are pushed on a srcpad, store them in the sticky event
array and mark the event with received = FALSE.
When the sticky event is successfully sent to the peer pad, make
received = TRUE.
Keep a PENDING_EVENTS pad flag that is set when one of the events is in
the received = FALSE state for some reason.
when activating a sinkpad, mark all events received = FALSE on the peer
srcpad.
When pushing a buffer, check the PENDING_EVENTS flag and if it is set, push all
events to the peer pad first.
Add _full variants of the pad function setters that take a destroy notify.
Make some macros that make the old method name pass NULL to this new
function.
Add the pad mode to the activate function so that we can reuse the same function
for all activation modes. This makes the core logic smaller and allows for some
elements to make their activation code easier. It would allow us to add more
scheduling modes later without having to add more activate functions.
Turns some boolean arguments in the scheduling query to flags, which are easier
to extend and makes the code easier to read.
Make extra methods for configuring and querying the supported scheduling modes.
This should make it easier to add new modes later.
Add a new pad flag NEED_PARENT that ensures that the parent of a pad is
reffed and not NULL when the event, query and internal links functions
are called.
When a pad is added to an element automatically make sure the NEED_PARENT flag
is enabled.
fix the proxy functions for query_accept_caps and query_caps to use the pad
forward helper functions which correctly forwards on the internally linked pads.
Remove the getcaps function on the pad and use the CAPS query for
the same effect.
Add PROXY_CAPS to the pad flags. This instructs the default caps event and query
handlers to pass on the CAPS related queries and events. This simplifies a lot
of elements that passtrough caps negotiation.
Make two utility functions to proxy caps queries and aggregate the result. Needs
to use the pad forward function instead later.
Make the _query_peer_ utility functions use the gst_pad_peer_query() function to
make sure the probes are emited properly.
Make that implizit with attaching/detaching controlsources. This is a lot easier
and has less invalid state (controlled property without control source).
No one but filesrc used that API. Should probably be replaced by
requiring an "uri" property instead, and then objects can do a
notify on that. Also removed interface structure padding, it's
not needed.
This make the controller even more lightweight (no extra object, no extra lock,
less indirections). For object that don't use the controller the only 'overhead'
is a 3 unused fields in the gst_object structure.
The fixate caps function was not used externally and we have vmethods in the
base classes where it is needed.
Update some docs.
simplify some fixate functions in the base classes. Also pass the untruncated
caps to the vmethod.
when we are flushing, don't store the event on the pad but simply return FALSE.
Don't deactivate the srcpad, we need it to be active in order to push the
caps. Downstream can change the scheduling mode of an active pad.
This fixes caps operations when different elements advertise some
of their caps' properties differently (eg, for audio channels, either
a range from 1 to 2, or a list of 1 and 2).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663643
Make a new GstPadProbeInfo structure and pass this in the probe callback. This
allows us to add more things later and also allow the callback to replace or
modify the passed object.
Make a separate cookie to detect chancges in the list of probes and keeping
track of what hooks have been invoked yet.
Remove the requirement to have probes on srcpads in push mode and sinkpads in
pull mode.
Add some more debug.
Keep track of what callbacks got executed. If no callback is called and we are a
blocking pad, let the item pass. This allows you to block pads on selected
items only.
Explicitly have an UPSTREAM and DOWNSTREAM PadProbeType. This allows you to only
block the pad on upstream or downstream items.
Add convenience macros to only block on downstream/upstream items.
When we do not care about the actual resulting set,
but only whether it is empty of not, we can skip a fair bit
of GValue juggling.
Add a function that does so, since we cannot just pass NULL
to the existing API as it may be part of the API contract.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=662777
gstobject.c: In function 'gst_object_has_active_automation':

Move the controller to gstobject as a simple delegate. The controller and
controlsource are not classes in core. The controlsources stay separate as a lib
for now. This way we can avoid the qdata lookups.
Also remove controller_init(). There is no more need to link to controller for
elements.
Also sanitize the API. We now have functions to add properties like we had
methods to remove that. That avoids then ref count hacks we had in _new.
gobject-introspection won't parse them properly otherwise.
Still need to force the right type though (either GstClockTime or
guint64), but Type: xyz has no effect for me here, so someone with
a newer g-i needs to test this.
Some other defines are also missing, e.g. GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE.
The internal proxy pad target is simply a cache of the internal proxy pad
peer. This patch uses the well implement GstPad peer handling to obtain the
target. This fixes issues with target not being set in both direction when
two ghostpads are linked together (empty bin).

Better now than later in the cycle. These might come in handy:
sed -i -e 's/GstProbeReturn/GstPadProbeReturn/g' `git grep GstProbeReturn | sed -e 's/:.*//' | sort -u`
sed -i -e 's/GST_PROBE_/GST_PAD_PROBE_/g' `git grep GST_PROBE_ | sed -e 's/:.*//' | sort -u`
sed -i -e 's/GstProbeType/GstPadProbeType/g' `git grep GstProbeType | sed -e 's/:.*//' | sort -u`
No one uses this or should ever need to use it, since
the size is architecture-specific anyway. If normal
integers don't do, one should use 64-bit integers.
It's not really used outside of core at all, and has
serious namespace issues. If anyone feels the need to
revive this one, please use a less generic name space.
API: deprecate gst_filter_run()
API: deprecate GstFilterFunc
It's only used internally anyway and the helper struct
has namespace issues.
API: deprecated gst_plugin_feature_type_name_filter()
API: deprecated GstTypeNameData
Hide the fact that it's just a GstStructure from the API. We
may want to change this in future (e.g. to add refcounting).
Also, it caused problems for bindings (though that's mostly
the way we typedefed it to GstStructure).
We never get a tag name quark from a caller, it's always a
string, from which we'll try to look up our tag info in the
hash table, so change the hash table key from quark to string.
Avoids a bunch of pointless string => quark lookup in the
global quark table. We need to do an extra string => quark
conversion now when we copy a taglist, but in that case we're
in a slow path anyway.
This will make sure we spawn a new plugin scanner helper for each plugin
to be introspected, which helps with making sure we don't load too many
shared objects (libs, plugins) at the same time on systems where there
is a hard limit like on Android.
A better version might re-use the scanner for up to N times, though
it's not clear whether that would actually improve things dramatically.

The second caps ownership is transfered, no need to require it to
be writable from the caller function. Instead, _append and _merge
make it writable on their own.
Discovered because of an assertion on encoding-profile.c in
_get_input_caps using _merge but not passing writable caps.
Returning a newly allocated string makes no sense. It's unexpected for a
getter, and also this behaves differently in 0.10, so it would make future
merges harder.
Except for these two places here in core which were updated for the new
semantic, the return value is getting leaked all over the place.
Handle virtual links between ghost and proxypads when iterating pads instead of
when linking. Besides using less code this provides a more accurate picture.
This was leaking the PtrArray from caps->priv, as set up by the other call to
gst_caps_init. Also, the thread safety issue presented in the comment above was
not taken care of anymore. We now zero the refcount again when publishing the
structure.
Fixes#661629.
If pushgin downstream returned a non-ok value (like GST_FLOW_WRONG_STATE),
we don't want to end up returning a different value (GST_FLOW_OK in this
case) if IDLE probes are present.
This was a FIXME for 0.11. I guess a case could be made to keep it around
separately for apps or libraries that only want to use GStreamer's debugging
system, but it seems more likely they'd just copy the two source files into
their own tree if the case. Also, things like types wouldn't be initialised
without gst_init(). We can still make it public again if anyone needs it,
but then we should make it a proper function and not hide it behind
underscores.
Don't export those 35-something random _gst_parse_yy* symbols. These were
never in any header files and also blacklisted from our .def files, in
case anyone wonders.
GstBuffer pointers can now be printed using GST_PTR_FORMAT. This is used
in the very useful GST_SCHEDULING debug logs in gstpad.c and allows for
easier and more information tracking of buffer progress through a
pipeline with just debug logging.
This allows the setcaps handler and notify::caps to link
the pad downstream and doesn't require hacks to always
provide a peer to the pad, like in decodebin2.
This reverts commit 2bfada5581.
Conflicts:
gst/gstpad.c
For 0.11 we want to enforce that only subsets of the pad
caps are allowed. This breaks backward compatibility for
some elements, which is why we only print a warning in
0.10.
Pads should only accept caps that are a subset of the pad caps, e.g.
they should accept only caps that have a non-empty intersection and
at least all fields of the pad caps.
Without this a pad that wants for example
"video/x-h264,stream-format=byte-stream"
will be happy to accept
"video/x-h264".
Remove gst_mini_object_register() and add a GST_DEFINE_MINI_OBJECT macro to
define a _get_type() function for the boxed miniobject.
Remove a bunch of custom _get_type() functions and replace them with the
miniobject macro.
Rename some _init method to _priv_*_initialize() like the rest of them.
Inspired by patch from Johan Dahlin and see bug #657603
We can also use a flag to indicate that a frame should be decoded but not
displayed regardless of the the segment boundaries so we use the more generic
_DROP.
Reorder buffer flags and add some new ones.
Remove the media specific flags, we can now easily do this with the FLAG_LAST
flag because we don't extend from GstBuffer anymore.
Make the acceptcaps function behave like all the other functions with a default
implementation. Don't try to chain up to the default implementation when it was
set to NULL explicitly but return FALSE instead.
Fix some docs
Remove gst_pad_get_negotiated_caps(), it does not realy do what it says,
gst_pad_get_current_caps() returns the currently negotiated caps on the pad
correctly.
Instead of checking for valid utf-8 element-details every time we create
elements (from plugin-init or registry), do it before we save the registry.
Fixes#656193.
Make it possible to query the supported options of a bufferpool and enable
options. This is a bit more generic than the API to enable metadata. The purpose
is to make it possible to add new custom config options to the configuration of
the bufferpool when supported.
The idea was originally that if one passed &dest_fmt with
dest_fmt=GST_FORMAT_DEFAULT, then the code answering the query
could change dest_fmt to the actual default format used. However,
in more than half a decade of GStreamer 0.10 no piece of code in
GStreamer has ever used that feature, nor are there that many
users of this API that actually check whether the format returned
is the original format passed before using the values returned.
Also, it's just annoying-to-use API in its own right.
For all these reasons, make it so that the destination format is
passed directly and can't be changed by the element queried.
Refactor calling the GETCAPS function and checks.
Move the filter code in one place.
When using fixed pad caps, get the currently configured caps and then fallback
to the GETCAPS function. We used to simply ignore the GETCAPS function, which
resulted in transform elements returning the template caps instead of doing the
caps transform.
Avoid playing with the refcount to decide when a buffer has been recycled by the
dispose function. The problem is that we then temporarily can have a buffer with
a refcount > 1 being acquired from the pool, which is not writable. Instead use
a simple boolean return value from the dispose function to inform the called
that the object was recycled or not.
After we allocated a new buffer, call the release_buffer vmethod to put the new
buffer in the pool instead of assuming that the pool uses the default
release_method implementation.
Don't remove memory blocks from the buffer when we clip and resize, instead set
the memory offset and size to 0. This allows us to make the buffer larger again
later.
Add more debug.
Alow resize to 0 bytes.
Do clipping correctly.
Add more unit tests. Also add a failing test: when we resize to 0 and then
try to resize back to the original size it fails because the memory was
removed.
Allow for negative offsets when doing memory copy and share.
Add fast path in the _get_sizes() function.
Fix resize for negative offset and expanding the buffer.
Add some unit tests.
Also return the offset in a GstMemory block with the get_sizes() method. This
allows us to figure out how much prefix there is unused.
Change the resize function so that a negative offset can be given. This would
make it possible to resize the buffer so that the prefix becomes available.
Add gst_buffer_get_sizes() to return the offset and maxsize as well as the size.
Also change the buffer resize method so that we can specify a negative offset
to remove prefix bytes.
It was a bit too clever, and didn't really work as an API,
confusing people to no end. Better implement specific methods
whether an interface is usable/available/ready on the interface
itself, or even add GError arguments, rather than try to have
per-instance interfaces.
Don't mix messages and pads and tags.
Make the sink post tag messages when a tag event is received.
Since tags are sticky on pads now, they can be retrieved from there
when needed.
Make the Array of structures private. This should allow us to implement
the array more efficiently or with some preallocated structures when
we want to later.
Add a new method to clean up a static structure so that we can remove some code
that pokes into the private bits of the caps.
Add a function to retrieve an array of supported metadata apis from the the
bufferpool.
Add functions to configure and query the configured metadata apis in a
bufferpool configuration.
This reverts commit de29ae7b92.
Re-adds GFLOAT_TO_LE, GFLOAT_TO_BE, GDOUBLE_TO_LE, and GDOUBLE_TO_BE.
Turns out these aren't in GLib yet afer all (since we didn't
actually open a bug to get them added..)
Add an index to gst_buffer_take_memory() so that we can also insert memory at a
certain offset. This is mostly interesting to prepend a header memory block to
the buffer.
Fix the code to support allocating the buffer and memory in one memory block.
Add an extra variable to store the memory of the buffer.
This code is disabled still because of complications.
Make a new method to allocate a buffer + memory that takes the allocator and the
alignment as parameters. Provide a macro for the old method but prefer to use
the new method to encourage plugins to negotiate the allocator properly.
Add a boolean to the flush_stop event to make it possible to implement flushes
that don't reset_time.
Make basesink post async_done with the reset_time property from the flush stop
event.
Fix some unit tests
Add a new method to steal the miniobject stored at a location.
Add a new method to store a miniobject in a location and taking ownership
of the miniobject.
Always forward all events in the default handler. Previously it used to not
forward caps events by default. It makes more sense to forward the caps events,
if the element is interested in the caps, it will implement an event handler to
retrieve the caps and then it can decide to forward or not. If the element has
no event handler, it probably just doesn't care about caps and it probably is
also not going to modify the data in a way that needs a caps change.
Move the flag to indicate that a new_base_time should be distributed to the
pipeline, from the async_start to the async_done message. This would allow us to
decide when to reset the pipeline time based on other reasons than the
FLUSH_START event.
The main goal eventually is to make the FLUSH events not reset time at all but
reset the time based on the first buffer or segment that prerolls the pipeline
again.
Require the memory implementations to implement a share operation. This allows
us to remove the fallback share implementation which uses a different allocator
implementation and complicates things too much.
Update design doc a bit.
