Make decision on whether to show code location in journal messages based
on whether the WpLogTopic would enable DEBUG level messages.
Add wp_logt_checked API to take WpLogTopic as input to make this
possible, and deprecate wp_log_checked.
Given that we are allowing Conf() to instantiate a new WpConf,
the methods on the class need to be callable in reference to Self while
maintaining API compatibility with being indexable from the table as a
static method.
Allow this by checking if the first argument passed in is userdata.

This exposes the ability to load a SPA-JSON representation of a WpConf
object from an arbitrary file on disk to the Lua API

These errors are propagated to the caller, so it's the caller's
responsibility to print them appropriately, if necessary. Printing
a notice also here is only confusing.
A debug mesage is still be useful for developers to understand the flow.
Cache the rules in a global variable in each script, as JSON,
and use JsonUtils directly to evaluate them. This will allow us to
close the WpConf in the future after loading the scripts.
Also change the order of the return values of the match_rules_apply_properties
function to be able to easily ignore the number of changed values,
which is useless in most cases.
In some cases we need to get a section as JSON, so that we can pass it
down to the rules parser, while in other cases we neeed to get it as a
table to use it natively, and in that case we even need to differentiate
between it being an object, an array or an object with WpProperties.
Make it also possible to optionally pass tables with default values to
the functions so that we can get rid of cutils.get_config_section()
as well.
We do not use these APIs, so there's no point in keeping them.
Realistically, every component that needs a section just does its
own parsing on it, so the _get_value() functions are not needed.
The fallback in _get_section() is also not needed, as we always
pass NULL and then test for it. In Lua, however, it seems we are
using the fallback to return an empty object, so that getting
a section does not expand to multiple lines of code. For that reason,
I have kept the syntax there and implemented it in the bindings layer.
Changes:
- Configuration files are no longer located by libpipewire,
which allows us to control the paths that are being looked up.
This is a requirement for installations where pipewire and
wireplumber are built using different prefixes, in which case
the configuration files of wireplumber end up being installed in
a place that libpipewire doesn't look into...
- The location of conf files is now again $prefix/share/wireplumber,
/etc/wireplumber and $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/wireplumber, instead of using
the pipewire directories. Also, since the previous commits, we now
also support $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/wireplumber (typically /etc/xdg/wireplumber)
and $XDG_DATA_DIRS/wireplumber for system-wide configuration.
- Since libpipewire doesn't expose the parser, we now also do the
parsing of sections ourselves. This has the advantage that we can
optimize it a bit for our use case.
- The WpConf API has changed to not be a singleton and it is a
property of WpCore instead. The configuration is now expected
to be opened before the core is created, which allows the caller
to identify configuration errors in advance. By not being a singleton,
we can also reuse the WpConf API to open other SPA-JSON files.
- WpConf also now has a lazy loading mechanism. The configuration
files are mmap'ed and the various sections are located in advance,
but not parsed until they are actually requested. Also, the sections
are not copied in memory, unlike what happens in libpipewire. They
are only copied when merging is needed.
- WpCore now disables loading of a configuration file in pw_context,
if a WpConf is provided. This is to have complete control here.
The 'context.spa-libs' and 'context.modules' sections are still
loaded, but we load them in WpConf and pass them down to pw_context
for parsing. If a WpConf is not provided, pw_context is left to load
the default configuration file (client.conf normally).
This doesn't need to be a singleton, since we have the core registration
API available publicly nowadays. Makes things more clean for the API,
following the pattern of WpPlugin and WpSiFactory and simplifies the
built-in settings component in the internal component loader :)
This reverts commit 2ae1b3cbd9.
This is not a good API. It was only allowed temporarily in 0.4.15
to get things done. We should approach this properly in 0.5
In conf_apply_rules, check input argument is a table before assuming it
is and potentially crashing.
Add check also in wplua_table_to_properties to avoid similar bugs.
Syslog calls this level "notice" and I prefer it because we use it
to display significant messages that are not warnings, but they
are not really "standard", as GLib wants them to be. There is nothing
"standard" about log messages in general.
Also, make these notice messages be enabled at debug level 2, together
with warnings. The default log.level is 2 and it is a good idea to show
notices by default too.
Finally, show them in the log with "N" and also change criticals to be
shown with "E", meaning "error"... Then promote G_LOG_LEVEL_ERROR
messages to be shown with "F", meaning "fatal", because in fact these
messages are always fatal and always call abort(). Still, keep the term
"critical" in the functions to make sure that whoever uses them is aware
that this level is only for critical conditions and not suitable to
display any kind of error.
This allows lua scripts to work with log topics. A topic must be
opened at the top of the file, in global scope, and subsequently
all log commands should be executed on the returned object instead
of the Log global table
The intention is to make checks for enabled log topics faster.
Every topic has its own structure that is statically defined in the file
where the logs are printed from. The structure is initialized transparently
when it is first used and it contains all the log level flags for the levels
that this topic should print messages. It is then checked on the wp_log()
macro before printing the message.
Topics from SPA/PipeWire are also handled natively, so messages are printed
directly without checking if the topic is enabled, since the PipeWire and SPA
macros do the checking themselves.
Messages coming from GLib are checked inside the handler.
An internal WpLogFields object is used to manage the state of each log
message, populating all the fields appropriately from the place they
are coming from (wp_log, spa_log, glib log), formatting the message and
then printing it. For printing to the journald, we still use the glib
message handler, converting all the needed fields to GLogField on demand.
That message handler does not do any checks for the topic or the level, so
we can just call it to send the message.
This patch also moves nested configuration objects that are not considered
settings from the wireplumber.settings section to its own configuration
section (eg the rules array, the spa plugin properties, etc...). This allows
those objects to be merged with other same sections defined in other files.
When in error, attempt to execute a step called "error", if it exists.
This is rarely needed, but it might be useful in some cases to cleanup
some state, rolling back changes, when something fails.
* Remove entirely the hook priority numbers and use before/after dependencies
* Split the WpEvent code out of WpEventDispatcher
* Add methods on WpEvent to interface with it from the WpEventDispatcher.
As a bonus, we can now also implement tooling to inspect which hooks would
in theory run for an event and write tests around that
* Removed some internal debugging facilities and log calls, will redo it later.
* Using spa_list now for the list of hooks, to reduce the number of allocations
happening in the "hook collection" algorithm
* Switched some internal data to use g_new0 instead of g_slice_new0
* Added g_free to free WpEvent structures... surprisingly, we were leaking them
before
Hooks need to have a priority relative to the event they are executed on,
so it does not make much sense to have all kinds of different priorities
based also on the event type and/or the module where they are defined.
Also, it wouldn't be acceptable to have such an enumeration on the public API.
- WirePlumber Lua now facilitates Lua libraries/modules, utilize this and create
modules. Add some tests around this functionality.
- Create policy-hooks.lua containing all the hooks to find-target events
- Create policy-utils.lua module and push all the policy utility functions to it.
- Create common-utils.lua module and push the common utility functions to it.
- Remove all the above functionality from policy-node.lua and clean it up.
They is really no needed with the new _get() API and the WpSpaJson API. In C,
users can use 'wp_spa_json_parse_{boolean|int|float|string}()' APIs to parse the
WpSpaJson. In Lua, users can just do 'Settings.get(setting, m):parse()'.
