Andreas Rheinhardt 5a261cfa32 avformat/allformats: Fix data race when accessing devices lists
Up until now setting the input and output devices lists is guarded
by a mutex. This prevents data races emanating from multiple concurrent
calls to avpriv_register_devices() (triggered by multiple concurrent
calls to avdevice_register_all()). Yet reading the lists pointers was
done without any lock and with nonatomic variables. This means that
there are data races in case of concurrent calls to
av_(de)muxer_iterate() and avdevice_register_all() (but only if the
iteration in av_(de)muxer_iterate exhausts the non-device (de)muxers).

This commit fixes this by putting said pointers into atomic objects.
Due to the unavailability of _Atomic the object is an atomic_uintptr,
leading to ugly casts. Switching to atomics also allowed to remove
the mutex currently used in avpriv_register_devices().

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.

Documentation

The offline documentation is available in the doc/ directory.

The online documentation is available in the main website and in the wiki.
