Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/elements/gstfilesrc.c: (gst_filesrc_free_parent_mmap),
(gst_filesrc_map_region):
* gst/gstbuffer.c: (_gst_buffer_initialize),
(_gst_buffer_sub_free), (gst_buffer_default_copy),
(gst_buffer_new), (gst_buffer_create_sub),
(gst_buffer_is_span_fast), (gst_buffer_span):
* gst/gstbuffer.h:
Change GstBuffer private structure element names. (all files)
* gst/gstqueue.c: (gst_queue_init), (gst_queue_getcaps),
(gst_queue_link):
* gst/gstqueue.h:
Implement getcaps/pad_link functions that handle the case where
there are data in the queue.
Original commit message from CVS:
This is either a rewrite or a large bugfix to the queue element, whatever
you prefer to call it.
* upstream event forwarding now works. This should fix Julien's issues.
* this queue allows setting a min. treshold size and a max. limit size
in bytes, buffers and time before the queue allows the next element
to pull data or the previous element to push data into it. This is
very interesting for network-related buffering. Also includes signals
et all for the end user application.
* Events are no longer part of the queue's "size", they're essentially
seen as "void data". they have no size or time associated with them
anyway, so this shouldn't really sound weird.
Original commit message from CVS:
Add patch for better buffering (especially useful for network streaming), see #108268 - kudos go to janzen@pixelmetrix.com
Original commit message from CVS:
- Removed bufferpool code and move that to gstbuffer.c
- implemented refcounting on GstData
- implemented new buffer code based on Company's work in the EVENTS2 branch
- added boxed types for GstData/GstEvent/GstBuffer/GstBufferPool
- added refcounting to bufferpools and events
- use lockfree allocation for buffers
- simplified the clock, use lockfree allocation
- use GQueue in GstQueue for faster access to the tail element
- update core plugins to the new event API
Original commit message from CVS:
put upstream events in an async queue and resend them at the start of the chain. not working as expected yet but a start
Original commit message from CVS:
add an optional timeout for when queue blocks. when timeout is reached a GST_EVENT_FILLER is sent downstream
This is needed for gst-player since videosink has to be in the same thread as the ui, and spider blocks when there is no video (thus freezing the ui).
Original commit message from CVS:
- The clock_wait now returns the difference between requested time and
unlock time.
- Misc defines like GST_SECOND in gstclock.h
- remove pre/post in gstelement.c until fixed.
- added release_locks to gstelement so that the element can unlock itself
- added some more predefined events.
- added folowing functions to gstpad:
- convert function: get the relation between formats on this pad
- query function: get stats about the pad (position/total/latency)
- internal connect function: find out how this pad connects to other
pad internally to the element.
- generic pad_dispatcher.
- removed the last bits of pullregion
- use release_locks on the queue.
- added some events to queue
- make gstthread use the new release_locks function
- make the scheduler use the new clock_wait functions
- added events to fakesink
- added query functions to filesrc
- swap type and offset in the bytestream seek API to match fseek
- added some event handling in bytestream.
Original commit message from CVS:
This is an attempt at not segfaulting on errors but reporting some
usefull info instead.
- bin changes so errors can propagate.
- changed the _FAST macros to _CAST because that is what they do.
- removed all references to cothreads out of the core, they are
really a scheduler issue, handler with a sched_private gpointer.
- added a live buffer count, for debugging buffer leaks.
- added error checking in gst_scheduler_state_transition this solves the
"out of cothreads" problem.
- GST_ELEMENT_NO_ENTRY == GST_ELEMENT_INFINITE_LOOP
- added 2 private element flasg for use by the scheduler
(_COTHREAD_STOPPING) is now
- added scheduler entry points:
- _yield : to create possible scheduling points.
- _interrupt: to stop execution of an element.
- _error: to signal en error condition to the scheduler.
- improved error messages for pads.
- signal gst_element_error where appropriate.
- added the a new bin to the parent before entering it so one can reference
its children.
- queue memleak fixes on dispose.
- added possible deadlock detection in queue (turned off be default)
- GstBasicScheduler is a real class of its own now, hiding its internal
variables.
- GST_ELEMENT_IS_COTHREAD_STOPPING is gone. either call explicit _yield
operations, or make a sane loop.
- Better state change handling in filesrc. Better error reporting/recovery
too.
- updated core plugins.
- detect non decoupled elements on scheduler boundries and error.
