[PATCH v2 5/9] Remove refcounting from ports, sinks and sources

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

 



The refcounting is not completely removed from sinks and sources,
because they are still subclasses of pa_object, which implies
refcounting, but the only ones that have a reference to a sink or
source are the sink and source implementors, so in practice there's no
recounting being used. (Actually, pa_asyncmsgq also holds a reference
to a sink or source when the IO thread sends a message to the sink or
source. To avoid problems with this, the messages have to be
dispatched using pa_thread_mq_done() after shutting down the IO
thread, but before unreffing the sink or source. The current code base
doesn't have problems with this.)

This should fix an issue reported by Luiz von Dentz: freeing the
profiles hashmap of pa_device_port accessed already freed memory,
because the hashmap uses the string stored at pa_card_profile.name
as the key, and the profiles are freed when cards are freed. Card
ports might not be freed at that time, because they are (were)
refcounted.

I first tried to fix this by removing the profiles from
pa_device_port.profiles when the profiles are removed, but there are
more things that would have to be updated too on a port when it's not
connected to a card anymore, notably the card pointer. It looked like
the card pointer could not be safely set to NULL without a significant
amount of work, and since I dislike refcounting, I decided to spend
the effort on removing the refcounting from ports instead. That
required removing it also from sinks and sources.

Ports are now owned solely by cards. Anyone who holds a pointer to
a port should use the card unlink hook to get rid of that pointer
before the port disappears. (The current code base shouldn't have any
issues with this.) Similarly, sinks and sources are now owned solely
by their implementers, so the unlink hooks are essential when dealing
with sinks and sources too.

A note about the bluetooth "SCO over PCM" mode: now that the SCO sink
and source aren't referenced anymore, module-bluetooth-device can end
up holding stale pointers in case the SCO sink or source disappears.
I decided not to fix this, because the "SCO over PCM" mode has never
worked properly if the SCO sink or source can disappear at runtime. On
the systems that I know are using the "SCO over PCM" mode, the SCO
devices stay loaded all the time. If the stale pointers are an
unacceptable bug, I can try to fix it.
