This reworks all of mpv's unit tests so they are compiled as separate
executables (optional) and run via meson test. Because most of the tests
are dependant on mpv's internals, existing compiled objects are
leveraged to create static libs and used when necessary. As an aside, a
function was moved into video/out/gpu/utils for sanity's sake (otherwise
most of vo would have been needed). As a plus, meson multithreads
running tests automatically and also the output no longer pollutes the
source directory. There are tests that can break due to ffmpeg changes,
so they require a specific minimum libavutil version to be built.
The first set iterates through all standard FFmpeg layouts and
checks that those which fit MP_NUM_CHANNELS succeed.
The second set iterates through built-in named channel layouts,
and attempts to convert them to AVChannelLayouts.
Until now, each .c file in test/ was built as separate, self-contained
binary. Each binary could be run to execute the tests it contained.
Change this and make them part of the normal mpv binary. Now the tests
have to be invoked via the --unittest option. Do this for two reasons:
- Tests now run within a "properly" initialized mpv instance, so all
services are available.
- Possibly simplifying the situation for future build systems.
The first point is the main motivation. The mpv code is entangled with
mp_log and the option system. It feels like a bad idea to duplicate some
of the initialization of this just so you can call code using them.
I'm also getting rid of cmocka. There wouldn't be any problem to keep it
(it's a perfectly sane set of helpers), but NIH calls. I would have had
to aggregate all tests into a CMUnitTest list, and I don't see how I'd
get different types of entry points easily. Probably easily solvable,
but since we made only pretty basic use of this library, NIH-ing this is
actually easier (I needed a list of tests with custom metadata anyway,
so all what was left was reimplement the assert_* helpers).
Unit tests now don't output anything, and if they fail, they'll simply
crash and leave a message that typically requires inspecting the test
code to figure out what went wrong (and probably editing the test code
to get more information). I even merged the various test functions into
single ones. Sucks, but here you go.
chmap_sel.c is merged into chmap.c, because I didn't see the point of
this being separate. json.c drops the print_message() to go along with
the new silent-by-default idea, also there's a memory leak fix unrelated
to the rest of this commit.
The new code is enabled with --enable-tests (--enable-test goes away).
Due to waf's option parser, --enable-test still works, because it's a
unique prefix to --enable-tests.
Drop mp_chmap_diff() (which is unused too now), and implement
mp_chmap_diffn() in a slightly simpler way. (Too bad there is no
standard function for counting set bits.)
Instead of just failing during channel map selection, try to select a close
layout that makes most sense and upmix/downmix to that instead of failing AO
initialization. The heuristic is rather simple, and uses the following steps:
1) If mono is required always prefer stereo to a multichannel upmix.
2) Search for an upmix that is an exact superset of the required channel map.
3) Search for a downmix that is the exact subset of the required channel map.
4) Search for either an upmix or downmix that is the closest (minimum difference
of channels) to the required channel map.
