The subprocess code was already split into fairly general functions,
separate from the Lua code. It's getting pretty big though, especially
the Windows-specific parts, so move it into its own files.
Avoids a crash if OpenSSL tries to write to a broken connection with
write().
Obviously OpenSSL really should use send() with MSG_NOSIGNAL, but for
some reason it doesn't. This should probably be considered an OpenSSL
bug, but since in this case we "own" the process, there is no harm in
ignoring the signal.
This is not done with libmpv, because as a library we don't want to mess
with global state. It's also not done if terminal handling is disabled -
this is a bit arbitrary, but I don't care much.
When mpv is backgrounded initially (via & in the shell), do no longer
change terminal settings on startup. This fixes broken local echo after
launching a backgrounded mpv.
As usual, we use C11 semantics, and emulate it if <stdatomic.h> is not
available.
It's a bit messy with __sync_val_compare_and_swap(). We assume it has
"strong" semantics (it can't fail sporadically), but I'm not sure if
this is really the case. On the other hand, weak semantics don't seem to
be possible, since the builtin can't distinguish between the two failure
cases that could occur. Also, to match the C11 interface, use of gcc
builtins is unavoidable. Add a check to the build system to make sure
the compiler supports them (although I don't think there's any compiler
which supports __sync_*, but not these extensions).
Needed for the following commit.
Doing that doesn't make sense anyway: it's meant for interactive input,
and if the output of the player is not on the terminal, how will you
interact with it?
It was also quite in the way when trying to read verbose output with
e.g. less while the player was running, because the player would grab
half of all input meant for less (simply because stdin is still
connected to the terminal).
Remove the now redundant special-casing of pipe input.
Assume mpv.exe is located in $mpv_exe_dir, then config files were
preferably loaded from "$mpv_exe_dir/mpv". This was mostly traditional,
and inherited from MPlayer times.
Reverse the config path priority order, and prefer $CSIDL_APPDATA/mpv as
main config path. This also fixes behavior when writing watch_later
configs, and mpv is installed in a not-writable path.
It's possible that this will cause regressions for some users, if the
change in preference suddenly prefers stale config files (which may
happen to longer around in the appdata config dir) over the user's
proper config.
Also explicitly document the behavior.
It turns out the glibc people are very clever and return an error if the
thread name exceeds the maximum supported kernel length, instead of
truncating the name. So everyone has to hardcode the currently allowed
Linux kernel name length limit, even if it gets extended later.
Also the Lua script filenames could get too long; use the client name
instead.
Another strange thing is that on Linux, unrelated threads "inherit" the
name by the thread they were created. This leads to random thread names,
because there's not necessarily a strong relation between these threads
(e.g. script command leads to filter recreation -> the filter's threads
are tagged with the script's thread name). Unfortunate.
Especially with other components (libavcodec, OSX stuff), the thread
list can get quite populated. Setting the thread name helps when
debugging.
Since this is not portable, we check the OS variants in waf configure.
old-configure just gets a special-case for glibc, since doing a full
check here would probably be a waste of effort.
mp_stat() instead of stat() was used in the normal code (i.e. even
on Unix), because MinGW-w64 has an unbelievable macro-mess in place,
which prevents solving this elegantly.
Add some dirty workarounds to hide mp_stat() from the normal code
properly. This now requires replacing all functions that use the
struct stat type. This includes fstat, lstat, fstatat, and possibly
others. (mpv currently uses stat and fstat only.)
The event monitor is used to get keyboard events when there is no window, but
since it is a global monitor to the current process, we don't want it in a
library setting.
This was once central, but now it's almost unused. Only vf_divtc still
uses it for extremely weird and incomprehensible reasons. The use in
stream.c is trivial. Replace these, and remove mpbswap.h.
Until now, the audio chain could handle both little endian and big
endian formats. This actually doesn't make much sense, since the audio
API and the HW will most likely prefer native formats. Or at the very
least, it should be trivial for audio drivers to do the byte swapping
themselves.
From now on, the audio chain contains native-endian formats only. All
AOs and some filters are adjusted. af_convertsignendian.c is now wrongly
named, but the filter name is adjusted. In some cases, the audio
infrastructure was reused on the demuxer side, but that is relatively
easy to rectify.
This is a quite intrusive and radical change. It's possible that it will
break some things (especially if they're obscure or not Linux), so watch
out for regressions. It's probably still better to do it the bulldozer
way, since slow transition and researching foreign platforms would take
a lot of time and effort.
When compiling semaphore_osx.c on win32, the following error happened:
/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/include/semaphore.h:160:6: error: unknown type name 'mode_t'
This is because this system header references symbols that are not
not defined anywhere. This is clearly a bug in pthreads-w32, but has
been known and unfixed since 2012, so add a hack to fix it.
We build semaphore_osx.c this way because it saves us an extra configure
check. On win32, Linux, etc. it's empty and contains
"#include <semaphore.h>" only.
Should fix#1108.
OSX is POSIX conformant, but it's a sad joke: it provides the
<semaphore.h> prototype as the standard demands, but they're empty
wrappers, and all functions just return ENOSYS.
Emulate them similar to how osdep/io.h emulate filesystem functions on
Windows. By including the header, working sem_* functions become
available.
To make it async-signal safe, use a pipe for wakeup (write() is AS-safe,
but mutexes can't be). Actually I'm not sure anymore if we really need
AS-safety, but for now the emulation can do it.
On Linux, the system provides a far more efficient and robust
implementation. We definitely want to avoid using the emulation if
possible, so this code is active on OSX only. For convenience we always
build the source file though, even if the implementation is disabled and
no actual code is generated.
(Linux provides working semaphores, but is formally not POSIX
conformant. On OSX it's the opposite. Is POSIX a complete joke?)
I'm not quite sure what we should actually do (maybe read input
commands?), but interpreting input as terminal key sequences is
definitely weird. So just do nothing.
Do terminal input with a thread, instead of using the central select()
loop. This also changes some details how SIGTERM is handled.
Part of my crusade against mp_input_add_fd().
The Windows version of tmpfile is actually pretty broken. It tries to
create the file in the root directory of the current drive, which means
on Vista and up, it normally fails due to insufficient permissions.
Replace it with a version that uses GetTempPath.
Also remove the Windows-specific note about automatic deletion of the
cache file. FILE_FLAG_DELETE_ON_CLOSE is available in NT, and it should
be pretty reliable.
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.
Just so I can move this file without modifying its contents in the next
commit.
compat/compiler.h is to be moved to osdep/ with the next commit, so add
a dummy header.
This is independent of terminfo/termcap, and supports more keys.
Originally, the goal was just extending the set of supported key
sequences, but since the terminfo stuff actually makes this much harder,
and since it's a big blob of bloated legacy crap, just drop it. Instead,
use hardcoded tables.
It's pretty easy to get on the same level as the old code (with fewer
LOC), and we avoid additional error situations, such as mallocs which
could fail (the old code just ignores malloc failures). We also try to
support some xterm escape sequences, which are in relatively widespread
use. (I'm not sure about the urxvt ones.)
Trying to deal with xterm shift/ctrl/alt modifiers is probably a bit
overcomplicated, and only deals with prefixes - xterm randomly uses
prefix sequences for some keys, and suffixes for others (what the heck).
Additionally, try to drop unknown escape codes. This basically relies
on a trick: in almost 100% of all situations, a read() call will
actually return complete sequences (possibly because of pipe semantics
and atomic writes from the terminal emulator?), so it's easy to drop
unknown sequences. This prevents that they trigger random key bindings
as the code interprets the part after ESC as normal keys.
This also drops the use of terminfo for sending smkx/rmkx. It seems
even vt100 (to which virtually everything non-legacy is reasonably
compatible with) supports the codes we hardcode, so it should be fine.
This commit actually changes only the code if terminfo/termcap are not
found. The next commit will make this code default.
Surprisingly, WaitFor* works on console handles. We can simply run the
code for reading the console in a thread, and don't have to worry about
crazy win32 crap in the rest of the player's input code anymore.
This also fixes the issue that you couldn't unpause the player from the
terminal, because the player would stop polling for input.
We already redirect all terminal output through our own wrappers (for
the sake of UTF-8), so we might as well use it to handle ANSI escape
codes.
This also changes behavior on UNIX: we don't retrieve some escape codes
per terminfo anymore, and just hardcode them. Every terminal should
understand them.
The advantage is that we can pretend to have a real terminal in the
normal player code, and Windows atrocities are locked away in glue
code.
Almost nothing was left of it.
The only thing this commit actually removes is support for reading
input commands from stdin. But you can emulate this via:
--input-file=/dev/stdin --input-terminal=no
However, this won't work on Windows. Just use a named pipe.
