GetTimer() is generally replaced with mp_time_us(). Both calls return
microseconds, but the latter uses int64_t, us defined to never wrap,
and never returns 0 or negative values.
GetTimerMS() has no direct replacement. Instead the other functions are
used.
For some code, switch to mp_time_sec(), which returns the time as double
float value in seconds. The returned time is offset to program start
time, so there is enough precision left to deliver microsecond
resolution for at least 100 years. Unless it's casted to a float
(or the CPU reduces precision), which is why we still use mp_time_us()
out of paranoia in places where precision is clearly needed.
Always switch to the correct time. The whole point of the new timer
calls is that they don't wrap, and storing microseconds in unsigned int
variables would negate this.
In some cases, remove wrap-around handling for time values.
Make OS specific timer code export a mp_raw_time_us() function, and
add generic implementations of GetTimer()/GetTimerMS() using this
function. New mpv code is supposed to call mp_time_us() in situations
where precision is absolutely needed, or mp_time_s() otherwise.
Make it so that mp_time_us() will return a value near program start.
We don't set it to 0 though to avoid confusion with relative vs.
absolute time. Instead, pick an arbitrary offset.
Move the test program in timer-darwin.c to timer.c, and modify it to
work with the generic timer functions.
Move the code calculating time delta since last query out of the
platform-specific drivers and into mplayer.c. The platform-specific
drivers now return absolute values only.
The way the code in timer-darwin.c uses doubles in wrapping arithmetic
looks questionable and this change might make problems in it more
visible.
patch replaces '()' for the correct '(void)' in function
declarations/prototypes which have no parameters. The '()' syntax tell
thats there is a variable list of arguments, so that the compiler cannot
check this. The extra CFLAG '-Wstrict-declarations' shows those cases.
Comments about a similar patch applied to ffmpeg:
That in C++ these mean the same, but in ANSI C the semantics are
different; function() is an (obsolete) K&R C style forward declaration,
it basically means that the function can have any number and any types
of parameters, effectively completely preventing the compiler from doing
any sort of type checking. -- Erik Slagter
Defining functions with unspecified arguments is allowed but bad.
With arguments unspecified the compiler can't report an error/warning
if the function is called with incorrect arguments. -- Måns Rullgård
