And don't override PIPEWIRE_DEBUG, unless WIREPLUMBER_DEBUG is set.
This allows pipewire to use log.level as well to set up its logging.
If WIREPLUMBER_DEBUG is set, though, override PIPEWIRE_DEBUG to prevent
log.level from being used.
- pw_core_info has data that represent the remote core
- pw_core properties are the properties of its pw_client,
initially inherited from the pw_context, which can be updated either
when calling pw_context_connect() or later at runtime (the pw_core
calls pw_client_update_properties() on its pw_client)
wp_core_update_properties() is made in such a way so that we can do:
```
clone = wp_core_clone(core);
wp_core_update_properties(clone, ...);
wp_core_connect(clone);
```
and get clone to have different properties than the original core,
while they still share the same pw_context underneath
There are 3 kinds of WpProxy objects:
* the ones that are created as a result of binding a global
from the registry
* the ones that are created as a result of calling into a remote
factory (wp_node_new_from_factory, etc...)
* the ones that are a local implementation of an object
(WpImplNode, etc...) and are exported
Previously the object manager was only able to track the first kind.
With these changes we can now also have globals associated with
WpProxies that were created earlier (and caused the creation of the global).
This saves some resources and reduces round-trips (in case client
code wants to change properties of an object that is locally
implemented, it shouldn't need to do a round-trip through the server)
* core no longer exposes create_remote/local_object
* node, device & link have constructor methods
to enable the create_remote_object functionality
* added WpImplNode to wrap pw_impl_node and allow creating
"local" node instances
* added WpSpaDevice to wrap spa_device and allow creating
"local" device instances
* exporting objects in all cases now happens by requesting
FEATURE_BOUND from the proxy, eliminating the need for WpExported
* replaced WpMonitor by new, simpler code directly in module-monitor
* the proxy type lookup table in WpProxy is gone, we now
use a field on the class structure of every WpProxy subclass
and iterate through all the class structures instead; this is
more flexible and extensible
* rework how global objects are stored in the core
* rework how users get notified about global objects
and proxies of remote global objects
The purpose of this change is to have a class that can manage
objects that are registered in the core or signalled through the
registry. This object can declare interest on certain types
of global objects and only keep & signal those objects that it is
interested in. Additionally, it can prepare proxy features and
asynchronously deliver an 'objects-changed' signal, which is
basically telling us that the list of objects has changed.
This is useful to simplify port proxies management in WpAudioStream.
Now the stream object can declare that it is interested in ports
that have "node.id" == X and the object manager will only maintain
a list of those. Additionally, it will emit the 'objects-changed'
signal when the list of ports is complete, so there is no reason to
do complex operations and core syncs in the WpAudioStream class
in order to figure out when the list of ports is ready.
As a side effect, this also reduces resource management. Now we
don't construct a WpProxy for every global that pipewire reports;
we only construct proxies when there is interest in them!
Another interesting side effect is that we can now register an
object manager at any point in time and get immediately notified
about remote globals that already exist. i.e. when you register
an object manager that is interested in nodes, it will be immediately
notified about all the existing nodes in the graph. This is useful
to avoid race conditions between connecting the signal and objects
beting created in pipewire
PipeWire headers were recently cleaned up to reduce the number of
included headers. This leads to a number of functions and types not
being included when needed in wireplumber.
This is very easy to reproduce when the pipewire-alsa integration
is installed and you do 'arecord -l'; the alsa plugin connects and
disconnects again before the proxy is ready.
In this case we have to skip remote-global-added and we also have
to be careful with the references: the global-removed callback is
called earlier, so the core's reference to the proxy is gone and
the GTask is the only thing holding a reference to the proxy.
When we unref the GTask, the proxy is also unrefed, so we have
to keep an additional reference in order to avoid crashing
when accessing the hash table below.
In practice we always create a remote and connect to pipewire.
Any other scenario is invalid, therefore, it is not justified
to be confused with so many classes for such small functionality.
This simplifies a lot the modules code.
Also, this commit exposes the pw_core and pw_remote objects
out of WpCore. This is in practice useful when dealing with low-level
pw and spa factories, which are used in the monitors. Let's not
add API wrappers for everything... Bindings will never use this
functionality anyway, since it depends on low level pipewire C API.
