This is just a lot of complicated and confusing code that had no purpose
anymore.
Also, the functions return values were checked only sometimes. Locking
shouldn't fail anyway, so remove the return values. Barely any other
pthread lock calls check the return value (including more important code
that is more likely to fail horribly if locking fails).
It could be argued that it might be helpful in some debugging
situations, or when the user built FFmpeg without thread support against
all good advice.
But there are dummy atomics too, so the atomic check won't help with
ensuring correctness absolutely. You gain very little.
Also, for debugging, you can just raise the ASSERT_LEVEL, and then
libavutil/thread.h will redefine the locking functions to explicitly
check the return values.
It's completely absurd that libavcodec would care about libavformat
locking, but it was there because the lock manager was in libavcodec.
This is more stright forward. Changes ABI, but we don't require ABI
compatibility currently.
This removes the dependency that hardware pixel formats previously had on
AVHWAccel instances, meaning only those which actually do something need
exist after this patch.
Also updates avcodec_default_get_format() to be able to choose hardware
formats if either a matching device has been supplied or no additional
external configuration is required, and avcodec_get_hw_frames_parameters()
to use the hardware config rather than searching the old hwaccel list.
This reverts commit 590136e78d.
Atomics are not required for this variable, because it is protected
through the lock manager, and the use of atomics here is not compatible
with the c11 emulation wrappersi.
Fixes FATE on MSVC, among other setups which use the compat wrappers.

The FF_CODEC_CAP_HWACCEL_REQUIRE_CLASS mechanism is deleted because it
no longer does anything (the codec already contains the pointers to the
matching hwaccels).
The only purpose of dllexport (which is set while building the library
that exports the symbols) is to have the linker automatically
export such symbols into a DLL without using a def file - it doesn't
affect the generated code.
For both MSVC and mingw builds, this isn't essential since we override
what symbols to export via an autogenerated def file instead.
Update a comment in configure to refer to the right concept.
With lld, this avoids warnings about duplicate export directives,
when some symbols are requested to be exported both via dllexport
attributes and via the autogenerated def file.
This also reduces the number of lines of code marginally.

Currently, AVHWAccels are looked up using a (codec_id, pixfmt) tuple.
This means it's impossible to have 2 decoders for the same codec and
using the same opaque hardware pixel format.
This breaks merging Libav's CUVID hwaccel. FFmpeg has its own CUVID
support, but it's a full stream decoder, using NVIDIA's codec parser.
The Libav one is a true hwaccel, which is based on the builtin software
decoders.
Fix this by introducing another field to disambiguate AVHWAccels, and
use it for our CUVID decoders. FF_CODEC_CAP_HWACCEL_REQUIRE_CLASS makes
this mechanism backwards compatible and optional.
Their use in the public header is deprecated and will be removed, but
they are still needed by some codecs at least as long as qscale related
deprecated fields in the AVFrame struct remain in the tree.
This avoids having to use pseudo relocations.
The version script used for exporting functions is skipped as soon
as the set of object files contains symbols marked with dllexport,
therefore we need to use makedef to produce the full list of symbols
to be exported.

We currently only have exported data symbols within libavcodec, but
the concept is easy to extend to other libraries if necessary.
The attribute declaration needs to be in a private header though,
since we can't use CONFIG_SHARED in public installed headers.

So, all frames and errors are correctly reported in order.
Also limit the numbers of error during draining to prevent infinite loop.

Apparently the demuxer outputs the wrong padding for HE-AAC (based on
the raw sample rate, or so). aacdec contains a hack to adjust the muxer
padding accordingly before it's used to trim the decoder output. This
modified the packet side data, which in combination with the old
decoding API would change the packet the user passed to the decoder.
This is clearly not allowed, and it breaks running some gapless fate
tests with "-fflags +keepside" applied (without keepside, the packet
metadata is typically newly allocated, essentially making a copy and not
modifying the user's input packet).
This should probably be fixed in the demuxer (and consequently also the
muxer), but for now only fix the immediate problem.
Regression since 946ed78f5f (2012).
Currently, the new decoding API is pretty much just a wrapper around the
old deprecated one. This is problematic, since it interferes with making
full use of the flexibility added by the new API. The old API should
also be removed at some future point.
Reorganize the code so that the new send_packet/receive_frame functions
call the actual decoding directly and change the old deprecated
avcodec_decode_* functions into wrappers around the new API.
The new internal API for decoders is now changing as well. Before this
commit, it mirrors the public API, so the decoders need to implement
send_packet() and receive_frame() callbacks. This turns out to require
awkward constructs in both the decoders and the generic code. After this
commit, the decoders only implement the receive_frame() callback and
call a new internal function, ff_decode_get_packet() to obtain input
data, in the same manner to how the bitstream filters now work.
avcodec will now always make a reference to the input packet, which means
that non-refcounted input packets will be copied. Keeping the previous
behaviour, where this copy could sometimes be avoided, would make the
code significantly more complex and fragile for only dubious gains,
since packets are typically small and everyone who cares about
performance should use refcounted packets anyway.
The current code stores a pointer to the packet passed to the decoder,
which is then used during get_buffer() for timestamps and side data
passthrough. However, since this is a pointer to user data which we do
not own, storing it is potentially dangerous. It is also ill defined for
the new decoding API with split input/output.
Fix this problem by making an explicit internally owned copy of the
packet properties.
With the new decode API, doing this in ffmpeg.c is impractical. There
was resistance against removing the warning, so put it into libavcodec.
Not bothering with reducing the warning to verbose log level for
subsequent wanrings. The warning should be rare, and only happen when
developing new codecs for the old API.
Includes a change suggested by Michael Niedermayer.
Until now, the decoding API was restricted to outputting 0 or 1 frames
per input packet. It also enforces a somewhat rigid dataflow in general.
This new API seeks to relax these restrictions by decoupling input and
output. Instead of doing a single call on each decode step, which may
consume the packet and may produce output, the new API requires the user
to send input first, and then ask for output.
For now, there are no codecs supporting this API. The API can work with
codecs using the old API, and most code added here is to make them
interoperate. The reverse is not possible, although for audio it might.

The generic code in utils.c sets the AVFrame.pkt_dts field from the
packet it was supposedly decoded. This does not have to be true for a
fully asynchronous decoder like mmaldec. It could be overwritten with an
incorrect value. Even if the decoder doesn't determine the DTS (but sets
it to AV_NOPTS_VALUE), it's impossible to determine a correct value in
utils.c.
Decoders can now be marked with FF_CODEC_CAP_SETS_PKT_DTS, in which case
utils.c won't overwrite the field. The decoders are expected to set this
field (even if they only set it to AV_NOPTS_VALUE).
