Not needed anymore. I'm not opposed to having asm, but inline asm is too
much of a pain, and it was planned long ago to eventually get rid fo all
inline asm uses.
For the note, the inline asm use that was removed with the previous
commits was almost worthless. It was confined to video filters, and most
video filtering is now done with libavfilter. Some mpv filters (like
vf_pullup) actually redirect to libavfilter if possible.
If asm is added in the future, it should happen in the form of external
files.
The OSS checks were a big mess and quite buggy. This reimplementes them using
a declarative approach and clearly distinguishing between the various OSS
implementations. The code should now almost be auto-documenting.
We currently support the following implementations of OSS:
* platform-specific (with `sys/soundcard.h`)
* SunAudio (default on NetBSD and useable on OpenBSD even if we have sndio
support there).
* 4Front (default on FreeBSD)
Since now each OSS check also checks for the appropriate soundcard header,
remove the old soundcard check.
Many thanks to @bugmen0t for in depth info about all the BSDs.
Check #380 and #359 for more info on this commit.
This commit adds a new build system based on waf. configure and Makefile
are deprecated effective immediately and someday in the future they will be
removed (they are still available by running ./old-configure).
You can find how the choice for waf came to be in `DOCS/waf-buildsystem.rst`.
TL;DR: we couldn't get the same level of abstraction and customization with
other build systems we tried (CMake and autotools).
For guidance on how to build the software now, take a look at README.md
and the cross compilation guide.
CREDITS:
This is a squash of ~250 commits. Some of them are not by me, so here is the
deserved attribution:
- @wm4 contributed some Windows fixes, renamed configure to old-configure
and contributed to the bootstrap script. Also, GNU/Linux testing.
- @lachs0r contributed some Windows fixes and the bootstrap script.
- @Nikoli contributed a lot of testing and discovered many bugs.
- @CrimsonVoid contributed changes to the bootstrap script.
