This is pretty straightforward, although there are two weird issues.
The current encoder has two bugs in the yuv conversion. First of all
it switches red and blue, due to something of an endianness issue. We
keep this behavior by switching red and blue. Maybe we want to
change this in the new protocol version since switching this may
cause jpeg compression to be worse.
Secondly, the old coder/decoder did rgb to/from yuv420 wrongly for
jpeg, not using the "full scale" version of Y that is used in jpeg,
but the other one where y goes from 16 to 235. (See jpeg/jfif
reference on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YCbCr for details.)
The new decoder uses the full range in order to get better quality,
which means old encoders will show slightly darker images.
This completely removes all ffmpeg usage in the client
Replace all "$(top_srcdir)/common" with "$(SPICE_COMMON_DIR)"
and all "$(top_srcdir)/client" with custom "$(CLIENTDIR)"
This would (after following patches) enables building the client from
either spice/ (top directory) or spice/client.
In Fedora 13, the linker doesn't pull in DT_NEEDED libraries anymore,
so we have to list the things that we depend on explicitly.
This affects several X extension libraries, and also the pthread
library.
Every place that does a regular malloc/calloc and aborts on failure
should use spice_malloc/spice_mallo0 instead, which is leaner and cleaner.
Allocations of dynamically sized arrays can use g_malloc_n or g_new etc
which correctly handle multiplication overflow if some of the arguments
are not trusted.
This includes:
* pixman region from SpiceRects
* rop2 enum
* solid fill
* solid fill with rop
* tiled fill
* tiled fill with rop
* blit
* blit with rop
* copy rect
The process loop is responsible for: 1) waiting for events 2) timers 3) events queue for
actions that should be performed in the context of the thread and are pushed from other threads.
The benefits:
1) remove duplicity: till now, there was one implementaion of events loop for the channels and
another one for the main thread.
2) timers can be executed on each thread and not only on the main thread.
3) events can be pushed to each thread and not only to the main thread.
In this commit, only the main thread was modified to use the new process loop.
