[RFC v5 2/4] media: Expose transport state in D-Bus

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Mikel Astiz <mikel.astiz@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Extend the Media API to expose the transport state in D-Bus, as a
property of the transport. This way the clients do not have to find
out which is the corresponding profile-specific interface for the
transport.

Additionally, this state along with the automatic release of transports
will allow clients to avoid the "optional release" or "accept remote
release" race condition. For example, with HSP/HFP profiles, the problem
is the following:

1. User suspends SCO in the remote end.
2. BlueZ signals the Playing->Connected state change in D-Bus.
3. Exactly afterwards, the user resumes SCO in the remote end.
4. In parallel, PulseAudio sees the aforementioned transition to
   Connected, and thus releases the transport.
5. BlueZ receives a Release() request while SCO is up. So the audio
   stream will be suspended.

The last step is an undesired behavior since the user explicitly wanted
to route the audio stream through Bluetooth.

The issue is difficult to reproduce but it can easily be solved by
exposing the transport state in D-Bus.
