- xcb is supposedly thread-safe!
videotestsrc ! glimagesink now doesn't spuriously result in a
'call XInitThreads()' error however if anybody else is using X11,
then XInitThreads() still needs to be called and multiple glimagesink's
still need XInitThreads().
Everything still takes libX11 handles as they are compatible with the xcb
variants. Unfortunately we cannot move fully over to xcb due to GLX being
entirely based on Xlib. It's also impossible to transform a xcb_connection
to a Display which means we require X11 handles.
The spec allows the core/compatibility profiles to be used
with #version 150.
Also tighten up the tests to check for default profiles being chosen
correctly.
The change to use GST_EXPORT for symbols under Windows requires
GST_EXPORTS for internal use, and that is also needed under Autotools.
The same thing is done for gstreamer-1.0.dll in -core.
The calling convention may be deprecated, but we still need it for
OpenGL. The build issue was caused by an incorrect syntax being used for
the WINAPI (__stdcall) prototype in function pointers which was accepted
by GCC but is rejected by MSVC.
With MSVC, this gives the following warning:
warning C4305: 'function': truncation from 'double' to 'gfloat'
Apparently, MSVC does not figure out what type to use for constants
based on the assignment. This warning is very spammy, so let's try to
fix it.
At minimum, we only need to glFlush() if we are in a shared GL context
environment. Move the glFinish() to when the actual wait is requested
which may be never. Improves the throughput on older GL systems without
GL3/GLES3 and/or fence sync objects.
In order to calculate the *actual* bitrate for downloading a fragment
we need to take into account the time since we requested the fragment.
Without this, the bitrate calculations (previously reported by queue2)
would be biased since they wouldn't take into account the request latency
(that is the time between the moment we request a specific URI and the
moment we receive the first byte of that request).
Such examples were it would be biased would be high-bandwith but high-latency
networks. If you download 5MB in 500ms, but it takes 200ms to get the first
byte, queue2 would report 80Mbit/s (5Mb in 500ms) , but taking the request
into account it is only 57Mbit/s (5Mb in 700ms).
While this would not cause too much issues if the above fragment represented
a much longer duration (5s of content), it would cause issues with short
ones (say 1s, or when doing keyframe-only requests which are even shorter)
where the code would expect to be able to download up to 80Mbit/s ... whereas
if we take the request time into account it's much lower (and we would
therefore end up doing late requests).
Also calculate the request latency for debugging purposes and further
usage (it could allow us to figure out the maximum request rate for
example).

Using g_thread_join() in _finalize() handlers may result in a deadlock
joining the current thread when the last reference is held by a signal
handler.
e.g.:
error 'Resource deadlock avoided' during 'pthread_join (pt->system_thread, NULL)'
The backtrace looks like this:
[...]
g_thread_join ()
gst_gl_window_finalize ()
gst_gl_window_x11_finalize ()
g_object_unref ()
g_value_unset ()
g_signal_emit_valist ()
g_signal_emit ()
gst_gl_window_send_mouse_event ()
gst_gl_window_mouse_event_cb ()
g_main_dispatch ()
[..]
g_main_loop_run ()
gst_gl_window_navigation_thread ()
g_thread_proxy ()
start_thread ()
clone ()
We cannot set the x, y coordinate of the video frame at the dispmanx at
this point. We need to teach dispmanx backend to understand about
set_render_rectangle API to draw a video with other UI.
This patch keeps the current behavior which places video frame at the
center of the display if there is no set_render_rectangle call to the
dispmanx window.
