wm4 d725630b5f audio: add audio softvol processing to AO
This does what af_volume used to do. Since we couldn't relicense it,
just rewrite it. Since we don't have a new filter mechanism yet, and the
libavfilter is too inconvenient, do applying the volume gain in ao.c
directly. This is done before handling the audio data to the driver.

Since push.c runs a separate thread, and pull.c is called asynchronously
from the audio driver's thread, the volume value needs to be
synchronized. There's no existing central mutex, so do some shit with
atomics. Since there's no atomic_float type predefined (which is at
least needed when using the legacy wrapper), do some nonsense about
reinterpret casting the float value to an int for the purpose of atomic
access. Not sure if using memcpy() is undefined behavior, but for now I
don't care.

The advantage of not using a filter is lower complexity (no filter auto
insertion), and lower latency (gain processing is done after our
internal audio buffer of at least 200ms).

Disavdantages include inability to use native volume control _before_
other filters with custom filter chains, and the need to add new
processing for each new sample type.

Since this doesn't reuse any of the old GPL code, nor does indirectly
rely on it, volume and replaygain handling now works in LGPL mode.

How to process the gain is inspired by libavfilter's af_volume (LGPL).
In particular, we use exactly the same rounding, and we quantize
processing for integer sample types by 256 steps. Some of libavfilter's
copyright may or may not apply, but I think not, and it's the same
license anyway.

wm4 6a9f457102 audio/out: initialize an array to avoid confusing static analyzer
I _think_ this confuses Coverity and it thinks there is uninitialized
data to be read. Initialize the array to change/remove the warning, or
if there's a real problem, to make it easier to detect. (Basically apply
defensive coding.)

Kevin Mitchell a081c8d372 audio/out: correct copy length in ao_read_data_converted
Previously, the entire convert_buffer was being copied to the desination without
regard to the fact that it may be packed and therefore smaller.

The allocated conversion buffer was also way to big

bytes * (channels * samples) ** 2

instead of

bytes * channels * samples

wm4 90dd229871 audio/out: add helper code to do 24 bit conversion in AO
I plan to remove the S24 sample formats in mpv. It seems like we should
still support this _somehow_ in AOs though. So the idea is to convert
the data to more obscure representations (that would not be useful for
filtering etc. anyway) within the AO.

This commit adds helper to enable this. ao_convert_fmt is meant to
provide mechanisms for this, rather than a generic audio format
description (as the latter leads only to overly generic misery). The
conversion also supports only cases which we think will be needed at
all.

The main advantage of this approach is that we get S24 out of sight,
and that we could support other crazy formats (like S20). The main
disadvantage is that usually S32 will be selected (if both S32 and S24
are available), and there's no user control to force S24. That doesn't
really matter though, and at worst makes testing harder or will lead
to unpleasant arguments with audiophiles (they'd be wrong anyway).

ao_convert_fmt.pad_lsb is ignored, although if we ever find a case in
which playing S32 with data in the LSBs breaks when playing it as padded
24 bit format. (For example, WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE recommends setting the
unused bits to 0 if wValidBitsPerSample implies LSB padding.)

wm4 b8ade7c99b player, ao, vo: don't call mp_input_wakeup() directly
Currently, calling mp_input_wakeup() will wake up the core thread (also
called the playloop). This seems odd, but currently the core indeed
calls mp_input_wait() when it has nothing more to do. It's done this way
because MPlayer used input_ctx as central "mainloop".

This is probably going to change. Remove direct calls to this function,
and replace it with mp_wakeup_core() calls. ao and vo are changed to use
opaque callbacks and not use input_ctx for this purpose. Other code
already uses opaque callbacks, or has legitimate reasons to use
input_ctx directly (such as sending actual user input).

wm4 591e21a2eb osdep: rename atomics.h to atomic.h
The standard header is stdatomic.h, so the extra "s" freaks me out every

wm4 8a9b64329c Relicense some non-MPlayer source files to LGPL 2.1 or later
This covers source files which were added in mplayer2 and mpv times
only, and where all code is covered by LGPL relicensing agreements.

There are probably more files to which this applies, but I'm being
conservative here.

A file named ao_sdl.c exists in MPlayer too, but the mpv one is a
complete rewrite, and was added some time after the original ao_sdl.c
was removed. The same applies to vo_sdl.c, for which the SDL2 API is
radically different in addition (MPlayer supports SDL 1.2 only).

common.c contains only code written by me. But common.h is a strange
case: although it originally was named mp_common.h and exists in MPlayer
too, by now it contains only definitions written by uau and me. The
exceptions are the CONTROL_ defines - thus not changing the license of
common.h yet.

codec_tags.c contained once large tables generated from MPlayer's
codecs.conf, but all of these tables were removed.

From demux_playlist.c I'm removing a code fragment from someone who was
not asked; this probably could be done later (see commit 15dccc37).

misc.c is a bit complicated to reason about (it was split off mplayer.c
and thus contains random functions out of this file), but actually all
functions have been added post-MPlayer. Except get_relative_time(),
which was written by uau, but looks similar to 3 different versions of
something similar in each of the Unix/win32/OSX timer source files. I'm
not sure what that means in regards to copyright, so I've just moved it
into another still-GPL source file for now.

screenshot.c once had some minor parts of MPlayer's vf_screenshot.c, but
they're all gone.

wm4 211088943c audio/out/pull: avoid dropping some audio when draining
If the audio API takes a while for starting the audio callback, the
current heuristic can be off. In particular, with very short files, it
can happen that the audio callback is not called before playback is
stopped, so no audio is output at all.

Change draining so that it essentially waits for the ringbuffer to
empty. The assumption is that once the audio API has read the data
via the callback, it will always output it, even if the audio API
is stopped right after the callback has returned.

wm4 a2b1c6d3f6 audio/out/pull: correctly pad partial frames with silence
If a frame could only be partially filled with real audio data, the
silence wasn't written at the correct offset. It could have happened
that the remainder of the frame contained garbage.

(This didn't happen in the more common case of playing dummy silence.)

wm4 e440352313 audio/out/pull: avoid deadlock if audio callback stops
If the audio callback suddenly stops, and the AO provides no "reset"
callback, then reset() could deadlock by waiting on the audio callback
forever.

The waiting was needed to enter a consistent state, where the audio
callback guarantees it won't access the ringbuffer. This in turn is
needed because mp_ring_reset() is not concurrency-safe.

This active waiting is unavoidable. But the way it was implemented, the
audio callback had to call ao_read_data() at least once when reset() is
called. Fix this by making ao_read_data() set a flag upon entering and
leaving, which basically turns p->state into some sort of spinlock.

The audio callback actually never needs to spin, because there are only
2 states: playing audio, or playing silence. This might be a bit
surprising, because usually atomic_compare_exchange_strong() requires a
retry-loop idiom for correct operation.

This commit is needed because ao_wasapi can (or will in the future)
randomly stop the audio callback in certain corner cases. Then the
player would hang forever in reset().

wm4 bdf49d137e audio/out: make EOF handling properly event-based
With --gapless-audio=no, changing from one file to the next apparently
made it hang, until the player was woken up by unrelated events like
input. The reason was that the AO doesn't notify the player of EOF
properly. the played was querying ao_eof_reached(), and then just went
to sleep, without anything waking it up.

Make it event-based: the AO wakes up the playloop if the EOF state
changes.

We could have fixed this in a simpler way by synchronously draining the
AO in these cases. But I think proper event handling is preferable.

Fixes: #1069

wm4 68ff8a0484 Move compat/ and bstr/ directory contents somewhere else
bstr.c doesn't really deserve its own directory, and compat had just
a few files, most of which may as well be in osdep. There isn't really
any justification for these extra directories, so get rid of them.

The compat/libav.h was empty - just delete it. We changed our approach
to API compatibility, and will likely not need it anymore.

wm4 fb54a1436a audio: don't wait for draining if paused
Logic for this was missing from pull.c. For push.c it was missing if the
driver didn't support it. But even if the driver supported it (such as
with ao_alsa), strange behavior was observed by users. See issue #933.

Always check explicitly whether the AO is in paused mode, and if so,
don't drain.

Possibly fixes #933.

wm4 c36faf8c49 audio/out/pull: remove race conditions
There were subtle and minor race conditions in the pull.c code, and AOs
using it (jack, portaudio, sdl, wasapi). Attempt to remove these.

There was at least a race condition in the ao_reset() implementation:
mp_ring_reset() was called concurrently to the audio callback. While the
ringbuffer uses atomics to allow concurrent access, the reset function
wasn't concurrency-safe (and can't easily be made to).

Fix this by stopping the audio callback before doing a reset. After
that, we can do anything without needing synchronization. The callback
is resumed when resuming playback at a later point.

Don't call driver->pause, and make driver->resume and driver->reset
start/stop the audio callback. In the initial state, the audio callback
must be disabled.

JackAudio of course is different. Maybe there is no way to suspend the
audio callback without "disconnecting" it (what jack_deactivate() would
do), so I'm not trying my luck, and implemented a really bad hack doing
active waiting until we get the audio callback into a state where it
won't interfere. Once the callback goes from AO_STATE_WAIT to NONE, we
can be sure that the callback doesn't access the ringbuffer or anything
else anymore. Since both sched_yield() and pthread_yield() apparently
are not always available, use mp_sleep_us(1) to avoid burning CPU during
active waiting.

The ao_jack.c change also removes a race condition: apparently we didn't
initialize _all_ ao fields before starting the audio callback.

In ao_wasapi.c, I'm not sure whether reset really waits for the audio
callback to return. Kovensky says it's not guaranteed, so disable the
reset callback - for now the behavior of ao_wasapi.c is like with
ao_jack.c, and active waiting is used to deal with the audio callback.

wm4 8e7cf4bc99 atomics: switch to C11 stdatomic.h
In my opinion, we shouldn't use atomics at all, but ok.

This switches the mpv code to use C11 stdatomic.h, and for compilers
that don't support stdatomic.h yet, we emulate the subset used by mpv
using the builtins commonly provided by gcc and clang.

This supersedes an earlier similar attempt by Kovensky. That attempt
unfortunately relied on a big copypasted freebsd header (which also
depended on much more highly compiler-specific functionality, defined
reserved symbols, etc.), so it had to be NIH'ed.

Some issues:
- C11 says default initialization of atomics "produces a valid state",
  but it's not sure whether the stored value is really 0. But we rely on
  this.
- I'm pretty sure our use of the __atomic... builtins is/was incorrect.
  We don't use atomic load/store intrinsics, and access stuff directly.
- Our wrapper actually does stricter typechecking than the stdatomic.h
  implementation by gcc 4.9. We make the atomic types incompatible with
  normal types by wrapping them into structs. (The FreeBSD wrapper does
  the same.)
- I couldn't test on MinGW.

wm4 5aeec9aa70 audio: wake up the core when audio buffer is running low (2)
Same change as in e2184fcb, but this time for pull based AOs. This is
slightly controversial, because it will make a fast syscall from e.g.
ao_jack. And according to JackAudio developers, syscalls are evil and
will destroy realtime operation. But I don't think this is an issue at
all.

Still avoid locking a mutex. I'm not sure what jackaudio does in the
worst case - but if they set the jackaudio thread (and only this thread)
to realtime, we might run into deadlock situations due to priority
inversion and such. I'm not quite sure whether this can happen, but I'll
readily follow the cargo cult if it makes hack happy.

wm4 e16c91d07a audio/out: make draining a separate operation
Until now, this was always conflated with uninit. This was ugly, and
also many AOs emulated this manually (or just ignored it). Make draining
an explicit operation, so AOs which support it can provide it, and for
all others generic code will emulate it.

For ao_wasapi, we keep it simple and basically disable the internal
draining implementation (maybe it should be restored later).

Tested on Linux only.

wm4 a477481aab audio/out: feed AOs from a separate thread
This has 2 goals:
- Ensure that AOs have always enough data, even if the device buffers
  are very small.
- Reduce complexity in some AOs, which do their own buffering.

One disadvantage is that performance is slightly reduced due to more
copying.

Implementation-wise, we don't change ao.c much, and instead "redirect"
the driver's callback to an API wrapper in push.c.

Additionally, we add code for dealing with AOs that have a pull API.
These AOs usually do their own buffering (jack, coreaudio, portaudio),
and adding a thread is basically a waste. The code in pull.c manages
a ringbuffer, and allows callback-based AOs to read data directly.
