Normalize nullptr and an empty string both to nullptr to simplify
handling. API users cannot set a value back to nullptr, so both
an empty string as well as nullptr should behave the same.
Turns out clearing all frambuffers in reconfig isn't such a great idea
when you also end up here when setting pan/scan.
I guess this is just a leftover from a previous iteration of vo_drm
where doing this made sense.
Previously, there appeared to be implicit synchronisation in the
GL interop path, and we never observed any visual glitches. However,
recently, I started seeing stuttering in the GL path and on closer
examination it looked like read-before-write behaviour where GL
would display an old frame again rather than the current one.
After verifying that disabling hwdec made the problem go away,
I tried adding a cuStreamSynchronize() after the memcpys and that
also resolved the problem, so it's clearly sync related.
cuStreamSynchronize() is a CPU sync and so more heavy-weight than
you want, but it's the only tool we have. There is no mechanism
defined for synchronising GL to CUDA (It looks like there is a way
to synchronise CUDA to EGL but it appears one way and so wouldn't
directly address this problem).
Anyway, empirically, the output now looks the same as with hwdec
off.
Swapchain depth currently hard-coded to 3 (4 buffers).
As we now avoid redrawing on repeat frames (we simply requeue the same fb
again), this should give a nice performance boost when playing videos with a
lower FPS than the display FPS in video-sync=display-resample mode.
Presentation feedback has also been implemented to help counter the
significant amounts of jitter we would otherwise be seeing.
This allows to use drm hwaccels that require a hwdevice.
Tested with v4l2request hwaccel and cedrus driver on an allwinner device
running mpv with --vo=gpu --gpu-context=drm --hwdec=drm.
At first, this code used only 1 plane, so the compatibility stuff was
sufficient. But then use of planes 1 and 2 was added, without extending
the compatibility stuff.
I think I've seen a case recently where this broke the build and caused
users to apply invalid fixes, but I don't remember where.
It's possible that I didn't get all defines that are needed.
I think I was wrong about having to reset the stats when mpv stops
producing frames, eg. when it's paused. As long as the swapchain doesn't
underflow, last_queue_display_time will still be accurate, because the
next frame produced should still be presented one vsync after the
last one in the swapchain.
If the swapchain underflows (which is the common case for when mpv is
paused for more than 150ms,) the next predicted frame time should be in
the past. It should be fine to leave last_queue_display_time unset in
this case, since vo.c will use the current time instead, which is a
decent guess (though it doesn't take vsync phase into account.)
last_sync_refresh_count and last_sync_qpc_time should be kept on
swapchain underflow as well. Assuming the display refresh rate doesn't
change while mpv is paused, they'll only provide a more accurate guess
of the vsync duration when mpv starts playing again. Also,
vsync_duration_qpc never needs to get reset. It will get overwritten
immediately in most cases, and when it doesn't, it's still a better
guess of the vsync duration than nothing.
The render API (vo_libmpv) had potential deadlock problems with
MPV_RENDER_PARAM_ADVANCED_CONTROL. This required vd-lavc-dr to be
enabled (the default). I never observed these deadlocks in the wild
(doesn't mean they didn't happen), although I could specifically provoke
them with some code changes.
The problem was mostly about DR (direct rendering, letting the video
decoder write to OpenGL buffer memory). Allocating/freeing a DR image
needs to be done on the OpenGL thread, even though _lots_ of threads are
involved with handling images. Freeing a DR image is a special case that
can happen any time. dr_helper.c does most of the evil magic of
achieving this. Unfortunately, there was a (sort of) circular lock
dependency: freeing an image while certain internal locks are held would
trigger the user's context update callback, which in turn would call
mpv_render_context_update(), which processed all pending free requests,
and then acquire an internal lock - which the caller might not release
until a further DR image could be freed.
"Solve" this by making freeing DR images asynchronous. This is slightly
risky, but actually not much. The DR images will be free'd eventually.
The biggest disadvantage is probably that debugging might get trickier.
Any solution to this problem will probably add images to free to some
sort of queue, and then process it later. I considered making this more
explicit (so there'd be a point where the caller forcibly waits for all
queued items to be free'd), but discarded these ideas as this probably
would only increase complexity.
Another consequence is that freeing DR images on the GL thread is not
synchronous anymore. Instead, it mpv_render_context_update() will do it
with a delay. This seems roundabout, but doesn't actually change
anything, and avoids additional code.
This also fixes that the render API required the render API user to
remain on the same thread, even though this wasn't documented. As such,
it was a bug. OpenGL essentially forces you to do all GL usage on a
single thread, but in theory the API user could for example move the GL
context to another thread.
The API bump is because I think you can't make enough noise about this.
Since we don't backport fixes to old versions, I'm specifically stating
that old versions are broken, and I'm supplying workarounds.
Internally, dr_helper_create() does not use pthread_self() anymore, thus
the vo.c change. I think it's better to make binding to the current
thread as explicit as possible.
Of course it's not sure that this fixes all deadlocks (probably not).
This adds vsync reporting to the D3D11 backend using the presentation
feedback provided by DXGI, which is pretty similar to what's provided by
GLX_OML_sync_control in the GLX backend. In DirectX, PresentCount is the
SBC, PresentRefreshCount and SyncRefreshCount are kind of like the MSC
and SyncQPCTime is the UST.
Unlike GLX, the DXGI API makes it possible for PresentCount and
SyncQPCTime to refer to different physical vsyncs, in which case
PresentRefreshCount and SyncRefreshCount will be different. The code
supports this possibility, even though it's not clear whether it can
happen when using flip-model presentation. The docs say for flip-model
apps, PresentRefreshCount is equal to SyncRefreshCount "when the app
presents on every vsync," but on my hardware, they're always equal, even
when mpv misses a vsync. They can definitely be different in exclusive
fullscreen bitblt mode, though, which mpv doesn't support now, but might
support in future.
Another difference to GLX is that, at least on my hardware,
PresentRefreshCount and SyncRefreshCount always refer to the last
physical vsync on which mpv presented a frame, but glxGetSyncValues can
apparently return a MSC and UST from the most recent physical vsync,
even if mpv didn't present a new frame on it. This might result in
different behaviour between the two backends after dropped frames or
brief pauses.
Also note, the docs for the DXGI presentation feedback APIs are pretty
awful, even by Microsoft standards. In particular the docs for
DXGI_FRAME_STATISTICS are misleading (PresentCount really is the number
of times Present() has been called for that frame, not "the running
total count of times that an image was presented to the monitor since
the computer booted.")
For good documentation, try these:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/direct3ddxgi/dxgi-flip-modelhttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/direct3d9/d3dpresentstatshttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/ddi/content/d3dkmthk/ns-d3dkmthk-_d3dkmt_present_stats
(Yeah, the docs for the D3D9Ex and even the kernel-mode version of this
structure are better than the DXGI ones. It seems possible that they're
all rewordings of the same internal Microsoft docs, but whoever wrote
the DXGI one didn't really understand it.)
Certain mpv config options require wl->current_output to be created
before the video can actually start rendering. Just always create it
here if the current_output doesn't exist (the one exception being the
--fs option with no --fs-screen flag). Incidentally, this also fixes
--fs-screen not working on wayland.
To find the correct ICC profile X atom, the screen number was calculated
directly from the xrandr order of the screens.
But if a primary screen is set, it should be the first Xinerama screen,
even if it is not the first xrandr screen.
Calculate the the proper atom id for each screen.
On wayland the cursor has to be configured each time the pointer enters.
Currently if the window (re)gains the focus, the pointer is not hidden,
even when configured. After the mouse has been moved the pointer hides
correctly.
https://wayland.freedesktop.org/docs/html/apa.html#protocol-spec-wl_pointer:
wl_pointer::enter - enter event
...
When a seat's focus enters a surface, the pointer image is undefined
and a client should respond to this event by setting an appropriate
pointer image with the set_cursor request.

Previously, the only mouse buttons supported in wayland were left,
right, and middle click. This adds the thumb back/forward buttons as
valid bindings. Also it removes the old, default behavior of always
sending a right click if an unrecognized mouse button is clicked.
In a related but different fix, the magnitude of an axis event in
wayland is not important to mpv since it internally handles all scaling.
The only thing we care about is getting the sign when the event occurs.

This is mostly for the case when mpv_render_context_free() is called
while video is going on. This is supposed to gracefully stop video and
deinitialize everything properly. (I feel like it would put too much on
the API user to require that video is stopped before calling this
function. Whether video is running or not is a fairly highlevel thing,
and the API user could not do it in a race-free way.)
One problem was that unit() accessed ctx after ctx->in_use was set to
false. The update(ctx) call was basically a racy use-after-free. It
needed that call to wake up the mpv_render_context_free() loop that
waited for VO uninit. Fix this by triggering the wakeup inside the lock,
and then doing "barrier" locking in mpv_render_context_free().
Another problem was that the wait loop didn't really wait properly. IT
seems the had_kill_update field was a botched attempt to do that. It's
indeed quite hairy to do that with update(). Instead make use of the
dispatch queue (infinite timeout, using mp_dispatch_interrupt()), which
handles the problem of having to wait both for dispatch queue updates
and VO uninit at the same time.
Preparation for the next commit. Until now, it was only needed if DR was
involved. One reason for not always creating it was that you normally
must not use it if advanced_control is not enabled. This is why e.g.
VOCTRL_SCREENSHOT now checks for that variable; it still can't use
ctx->dispatch if the render API user did not enable it.
render api needs to wait for vo to be destroyed before frees the context.
The purpose of kill_cb is to wake up render api after vo is destroyed,
but uninit did that before kill_cb, so kill_cb tries using the freed
memory. Remove kill_cb to fix the issue as uninit is able to do the
work.
Equalizer control was redone in 03cf150ff3 (over 2 years
ago). Ever since, the equalizer control structs and the GET voctrl have
been unused. Only the SET voctrl is still used as notification mechanism
(actually a bad hack to avoid some further option change handling
complexity).
Remove the unused parts.
I was assuming posix_memalign was the most portable function to use, but
MinGW does not provide it for some reason. Switch to C11 aligned_alloc()
which someone suggested was provided by MinGW (but actually isn't,
someone probably confused it with the incompatible _aligned_malloc),
and add a configure check.
Even though it turned out that MinGW doesn't provide it, the function
is slightly more elegant than posix_memalign(), so stay with it.
skip-logo.lua is just what I wanted to have. Explanations are on the top
of that file. As usual, all documentation threatens to remove this stuff
all the time, since this stuff is just for me, and unlike a normal user
I can afford the luxuary of hacking the shit directly into the player.
vf_fingerprint is needed to support this script. It needs to scale down
video frames as part of its operation. For that, it uses zimg. zimg is
much faster than libswscale and generates more correct output. (The
filter includes a runtime fallback, but it doesn't even work because
libswscale fucks up and can't do YUV->Gray with range adjustment.)
Note on the algorithm: seems almost too simple, but was suggested to me.
It seems to be pretty effective, although long time experience with
false positives is missing. At first I wanted to use dHash [1][2], which
is also pretty simple and effective, but might actually be worse than
the implemented mechanism. dHash has the advantage that the fingerprint
is smaller. But exact matching is too unreliable, and you'd still need
to determine the number of different bits for fuzzier comparison. So
there wasn't really a reason to use it.

Generally, using x86 SIMD efficiently (or crash-free) requires aligning
all data on boundaries of 16, 32, or 64 (depending on instruction set
used). 64 bytes is needed or AVX-512, 32 for old AVX, 16 for SSE. Both
FFmpeg and zimg usually require aligned data for this reason.
FFmpeg is very unclear about alignment. Yes, it requires you to align
data pointers and strides. No, it doesn't tell you how much, except
sometimes (libavcodec has a legacy-looking avcodec_align_dimensions2()
API function, that requires a heavy-weight AVCodecContext as argument).
Sometimes, FFmpeg will take a shit on YOUR and ITS OWN alignment. For
example, vf_crop will randomly reduce alignment of data pointers,
depending on the crop parameters. On the other hand, some libavfilter
filters or libavcodec encoders may randomly crash if they get the wrong
alignment. I have no idea how this thing works at all.
FFmpeg usually doesn't seem to signal alignment internal anywhere, and
usually leaves it to av_malloc() etc. to allocate with proper alignment.
libavutil/mem.c currently has a ALIGN define, which is set to 64 if
FFmpeg is built with AVX-512 support, or as low as 16 if built without
any AVX support. The really funny thing is that a normal FFmpeg build
will e.g. align tiny string allocations to 64 bytes, even if the machine
does not support AVX at all.
For zimg use (in a later commit), we also want guaranteed alignment.
Modern x86 should actually not be much slower at unaligned accesses, but
that doesn't help. zimg's dumb intrinsic code apparently randomly
chooses between aligned or unaligned accesses (depending on compiler, I
guess), and on some CPUs these can even cause crashes. So just treat the
requirement to align as a fact of life.
All this means that we should probably make sure our own allocations are
64 bit aligned. This still doesn't guarantee alignment in all cases, but
it's slightly better than before.
This also makes me wonder whether we should always override libavcodec's
buffer pool, just so we have a guaranteed alignment. Currently, we only
do that if --vd-lavc-dr is used (and if that actually works). On the
other hand, it always uses DR on my machine, so who cares.
Dear diary,
today I fixed a shitty bug that was all my fault because I made a
horrible mess. (Except it was a horrible mess before I even touched
this shit, but let's not blame others.)
Sometimes, updates to VO option that control video sizing (like panscan)
didn't update the screen correctly. They were delayed until the next
option change or so.
It turns out that if the option update happens at the "same" time as a
VOCTRL, update_opts() doesn't actually notify the vo_driver of the
change. This in turn happened because run_control() called
m_config_cache_update(). The latter function returns true if the options
changed since the last call, and update_opts() also calls it (on the
same config cache) for the same purpose. The update_opts() call, which
is triggered by a third mechanism, comes later, but the cache update
call will return false (as it should). Basically, given the config API,
you can't act differently on multiple update calls and expect it to
work. The skipped handling in update_opts() meant that the notification
required to apply the changed option wasn't run.
Fix this by simply calling update_opts() directly instead. Now there's
only 1 m_config_cache_update() call on this specific instance. Fix the
call in run_reconfig() too, so the previous sentence isn't a lie (but it
probably doesn't make a difference in practice due to certain details).
I'm not sure how I even ran into this sort-of race condition. The VOCTRL
that messed up the option update was VOCTRL_UPDATE_PLAYBACK_STATE, which
happens semi-regularly.
Why this config cache shit and all the other shit? Rediscovering this
crap wasn't pleasant. It's a bunch of hacks that became necessary when
the ancient MPlayer architecture made it hard to move the VO to a
separate thread.
All the VO code typically accesses vo->opts (whose fields all used to be
global variables in MPlayer). The frontend changes these on user input.
Putting locking around all the options would be a nightmare, and keeping
a copy of the options in the thread was much simpler. You need a way to
propagate option changes, notify the thread, and update the local copy
too. And the result of these thoughts was the config cache mechanism.
In this specific case, the relevant cache update call in update_opts()
triggers a VOCTRL_SET_PANSCAN to the VO driver, which isn't related to
its former function anymore. Instead, it causes the VO driver to update
the video sizing/placing options, which the generic VO code can't do.
(Mostly because the VO driver includes the windowing stuff and is
responsible for resizing etc. itself.)
VOCTRLs sent by the frontend are even worse. MPlayer had no real runtime
option change mechanism. Some options were vaguely duplicated by
properties, so you could effectively change those options at runtime.
Each of these options had its own VOCTRL, which still exist today, e.g.
VOCTRL_FULLSCREEN, or VOCTRL_ONTOP. I tried to make all options runtime
changeable, and to unify properties with options. But I couldn't be
bothered with updating all VO drivers to listen to option changes
directly, because that would be pretty tedious. So the property code is
still all there and sends the old VOCTRLs. But of course you need to
sync up the options, which is why the run_control() code did that.
(Unrelated: VO_EVENT_FULLSCREEN_STATE is the worst shithack of them all.
Currently, only the frontend can actually write to options (for awful
reasons), so if the fullscreen state changes due to outside interaction,
the VO driver can't update the corresponding option fields. So the VO
notifies the frontend with said VO_EVENT_, and the frontend then sends
VOCTRL_GET_FULLSCREEN, and updates the global copy of the option with
the value returned by that. I still like to think the situation is not
that bad considering the monstrous effort of converting single-threaded
code that had hundreds of options in global variables to multi-threaded
code with no global variables at all.)
m_geometry_apply() will read and modify the dummy variable. It's not
actually used for anything, but valgrind will still warn against
uninitialized data. I'm not sure whether this was UB, but in any case
it's annoying when running valgrind.
--hwdec=auto-copy was preferring vdpau over vaapi. In the HEVC 10 bit
case, this also led to hardware decoding not being enabled. (Probably
because the probing can't start over after enabling hw decoding fails at
runtime, or something like that.)
Possible that this subtly breaks on some setups. You can't always win.
