AV_CODEC_CAP_AUTO_THREADS was originally added in b4d44a45f9 to mark
codecs that spawn threads internally and are able to select an optimal
threads count by themselves (all such codecs are wrappers around
external libraries). It is used by lavc generic code to check whether it
should handle thread_count=0 itself or pass the zero directly to the
codec implementation. Within this meaning, it is clearly supposed to be
an internal cap rather than a public one, since from the viewpoint of a
libavcodec user, lavc ALWAYS handles thread_count=0. Whether it happens
in the generic code or within the codec internals is not a meaningful
difference for the caller.
External aspects of this flag will be dealt with in the following
commit.
It has been deprecated for 4 years and certain new codecs do not work
with it.
Also include AVCodecContext.refcounted_frames, as it has no effect with
the new API.
This function existed to enable codecs with non-threadsafe init functions
to initialize other codecs despite the fact that normally no two codecs
with non-threadsafe init functions can be initialized at the same time
(there is a mutex guarding this). Yet there are no users of this
function any more as all users have been made thread-safe (switching
away from ff_codec_open2_recursive() was required for this as said
function requires the caller to hold the lock to the mutex guarding the
initializations and this is only true for codecs with the
FF_CODEC_CAP_INIT_THREADSAFE flag unset); so remove it.

Keeping only the latest packet fed to the decoder works only for decoders that
return a frame immediately after every consumed packet. Decoders that consume
several packets before they return a frame will fill said frame with properties
taken from the last consumed packet instead of the earliest.

Following the same logic as 061a0c14bb, this commit turns the old encode API
into a wrapper for the new one.
Signed-off-by: James Almer <jamrial@gmail.com>
This commit follows the same logic as 061a0c14bb, but for the encode API: The
new public encoding API will no longer be a wrapper around the old deprecated
one, and the internal API used by the encoders now consists of a single
receive_packet() callback that pulls frames as required.

Currently the frame pool used by the default get_buffer2()
implementation is a single struct, allocated when opening the decoder.
A pointer to it is simply copied to each frame thread and we assume that
no thread attempts to modify it at an unexpected time. This is rather
fragile and potentially dangerous.
With this commit, the frame pool is made refcounted, with the reference
being propagated across threads along with other context variables. The
frame pool is now also immutable - when the stream parameters change we
drop the old reference and create a new one.
This allows the fuzzer to target meaningfull codec tags instead
of hunting the 4gb space, which it seems to have problems with.

Some decoders may not need a writable buffer in some specific cases, but only
a reference to the existing buffer with updated frame properties instead, for
the purpose of returning duplicate frames. For this, the
FF_REGET_BUFFER_FLAG_READONLY flag is added, which will prevent potential
allocations and buffer copies when they are not needed.

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 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.
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.
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).

libavcodec: Don't use dllexport, only dllimport when building DLLs
Merged-by: James Almer <jamrial@gmail.com>
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.

msvc: Properly specify dllexport for data symbols shared across dll boundaries
Merged-by: James Almer <jamrial@gmail.com>
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.

lavc: Drop deprecated options moved to private contexts
Merged-by: James Almer <jamrial@gmail.com>
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.
