This property avoids not linked error when all the pads are unlinked
or when there are no source pads. This is useful in dynamic pipelines
where it can happen that for a short time there are no pads at all or
all downstream pads are not linked yet.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=746436
When determining whether the running_time of a pad can be
calculated, check if the segment is in TIME format instead
of using the 'active' field.
Since the latter is set through *any* activity, it's not a
reliable indicator of segment presence.

With the disappearance of the 'block' signal, this
flag cannot be set to TRUE.
gst_input_selector_wait disappears as it never waits
and just returns self->flushing.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736891
This signal blocks the input-selector with no means of unblocking
other than a state change back to READY. It seems this signal was
part of an old way of synchronously switching the selector,
together with the already-removed 'switch' signal.
Removing the signal is safe, as attempting to use it could only
end in deadlocks. Attempting to emit an unknown signal just causes
g_criticals.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736891
This apparently got broken by bc1ec4e. Since self->blocked is always
FALSE, gst_input_selector_wait never actually waits.
Using (!self->eos || self->blocked) && ... as the loop condition would
be incorrect as well, because then the other call to the function in
_chain would block until EOS, so the functions cannot be merged trivially.
Since blocking is obsolete, gst_input_selector_wait will get removed anyway.
As such, just inline the loop.

Add QUERY_SEEKING handling to queue2, so RTMP live streams become
seekable when a queue2 in download or ringbuffer mode is inserted:
rtmpsrc ! queue2 ! flvdemux
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733351
Otherwise we end up dropping e.g. CAPS queries, and then upstream just
negotiates to whatever format it wants to. Once the valve is not-dropping
anymore this can easily result in negotiation failing completely.

Demultiplex a stream to multiple source pads based on the stream ids from the
stream-start events. This basically reverses the behaviour of funnel.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707605
We use the segment format to detect if we run the streaming thread or not.
Without resetting we might believe we do so, although we only did in the past
and are now running in e.g. push mode.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745073
It might still be waiting for a query to be handled, or the queue to become
empty again for the next item. Also if downstream returns FLUSHING, flush the
queue like we do in queue and multiqueue.
Otherwise we might wait forever for serialized queries to be handled as the
loop function is stopped and as such we will never ever dequeue the query and
handle it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745319
... and only unblock when either a) the pad becomes active and the event
should be forwarded or b) the active pad went EOS itself.
Otherwise it can happen that we switch from a longer track that is not EOS yet
to a shorter track that already is EOS, but the shorter track won't have any
possibility to send its EOS event downstream anymore.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740949
TRUE is 1, but every other non-zero value is also considered true. Comparing
for equality with TRUE would only consider 1 but not the others.
Also normalize booleans in a few places.
Write out multiple buffers possibly containing multiple
memories with one writev() call, without merging the
buffer memories first, like ::render() does currently.
When comparing percentage values, compare with 0-100 scale as it
has already been made relative to 0-high_percent, otherwise we mark
the queue as not buffering and report a 50% to the user. This leads to
a buffering stall as the user assumes the queue is still buffering but
it thinks it isn't.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736969
multiqueue's queues stored percent value is the percentage from 0
to 100 (max-size-*) and should be compared with the requested limit
(high_percentage) set by the user and not with 100% to check if
buffering should stop. Otherwise we are only stopping buffering when the
queue gets completely full.
In this mode we accept previously set filter caps until
upstream renegotiates to something that is compatible
to the current filter caps.
This allows dynamic caps changes in the pipeline even
if there is a queue between any conversion element
and the capsfilter. Without this we would get not-negotiated
errors if timing is bad.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=739002
If we are pushing a serialized query into a queue and the queue is
filled, we will end in a deadlock. We need to release the lock before
pushing and acquire it again afterward.

Revert the previous commit which removes the pattern property of fakesrc because
doing so will break ABI. Bringing the property back but marking it as unused
in the property string.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737683
Eventhough the "pattern" property of fakesrc can be set, it is never used. The
only pattern supported is the default 0x00 -> 0xff, and if a pattern is set by
the user it is ignored. Removing the unused property and variable.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737683
This might create deadlocks and we need to avoid holding element
specific lock while posting messages
For example a deadlock will happen if while posting the message,
someone connected on the bus (sync) tries to DOT the pipeline.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737102
It might cause deadlocks to post messages while holding the queue2
lock. To avoid this a new boolean flag is set whenever a new
buffering percent is found. The message is posted after the lock
is released.
To make sure the buffering messages are posted in the right order, messages
are posted holding another lock. This prevents 2 threads trying to post
messages at the same time.

Don't re-start the queue push task on the source pad when a
flush-stop event comes in and we're in the process of shutting
down, otherwise that task will never be stopped again.
When the element is set to READY state, the pads get de-activated.
The source pad gets deactivated before the queue's own activate_mode
function on the source pads gets called (which will stop the thread),
so checking whether the pad is active before re-starting the task on
receiving flush-stop should be fine. The problem would happen when the
flush-stop handler was called just after the queue's activate mode
function had stopped the task.

Otherwise it would only be proxied for the active pad which can lead
upstream to use an incompatible caps for the downstream element.
Even if a reconfigure event is sent upstream when the pad is activated, this
will save the caps reconfiguration if it is already using an acceptable caps.
Imagine the following 'pipeline'
--------------
p1/| 'fullqueue' |--- 'laggy' downstream
--------- / | |
-| demuxer | | multiqueue |
--------- \ | |
p2\| 'emptyqueue' |--- 'fast' downstream
--------------
In the case downstream of one single queue (fullqueue) has (a lot of) latency
(for example for reverse playback with video), we can end up having the other
SingleQueue (emptyqueue) emptied, before that fullqueue gets
unblocked. In the meantime, the demuxer tries to push on fullqueue, and
is blocking there.
In that case the current code will post a BUFFERING message on the bus when
emptyqueue gets emptied, that leads to the application setting the pipeline state to
PAUSED. So now we end up in a situation where 'laggy downstream' is
prerolled and will not unblock anymore because the pipeline is set to
PAUSED, the fullequeue does not have a chance to be emptied and
the emptyqueue can not get filled anymore so no more BUFERRING message
will be posted and the pipeline is stucked in PAUSED for the eternity.
Making sure that we do not try to "buffer" if one of the single queue
does not need buffering, prevents this situtation from happening though it lets the
oportunity for buffering in all other cases.
That implements a new logic where we need all singlequeue to need
buffering for the multiqueue to actually state buffering is needed,
taking the maximum buffering of the single queue as the reference point.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734412
After EOS there will be no further buffer which could propagate the
error upstream, so nothing is going to post an error message and
the pipeline just idles around.
When eos events are forwarded simultaneouly from two sinkpads on
funnel, it doesnot forward the eos to sourcepad. The reason is
sticky events are stored after the event callbacks are returned.
Therefore while one is about to store the sticky events on the its
sinkpad, other sinkpad starts checking for the eos events on all other
sinkpads and assumes eos is not present yet.

Avoid relocations and refactor so that we don't calculate
the fixed and known at compile time maximum string size
every time. Also skip the mini object flags which we are
not going to print anyway.
The initial buffers (that were used for timestamping) might have PTS
and DTS set. In order to forward those properly, get the initial
PTS/DTS from the adapter and set them on the reconstructed output
buffer.

We always work in passthrough mode so there's no point in doing
something more clever in basetransform. Also the basetransform
code leads to problems with incomplete caps and downstream
elements that use GST_PAD_FLAG_ACCEPT_INTERSECT.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=732559
When no data is coming from sinkpads and eos events
arrived at one of the sinkpad, funnel forwards the EOS
event to downstream. It forwards the EOS because lastsink pad
is NULL. Also the unit testcase of the funnel is not checking
the correct behavior as it should. The unit test case should
fail if one of the sink pad has already EOS present on it and
we are trying to push one more EOS.

The start and stop should represent the currently downloading region.
The estimated-total should represent the remaining time to download
the currently downloading region. This makes it a lot more useful
for applications because they can then use those values to update
the fill region and use the estimated time to delay playback.
Update the docs with this clarification.
