[vlc-devel] [PATCH 00/19] picture cleaning

There is currently 2 ways to create pictures: picture_NewFromFormat and
picture_NewFromResource. But in many cases what these functions do is
not what the caller wants. For example it may want a picture with no allocation
but with the planes setup correctly (fake pictures with a hardware buffer in
some display modules, d3d9/d3d11 CPU<>GPU conversion).

This forces call with some dummy values that are copied for nothing and never
used. It also requires knowing what will picture_NewFromResource() do
internally to do the proper call.

These set of patches reshuffle the picture allocation API to avoid those hacks
and avoid some unecessary casts. Now the planes that were passed to 
picture_NewFromResource() are set outside of this function, after the picture
allocation worked and the planes are setup. The caller can set an optional
"garbage collection" callback to release the resources when the picture is
no longer used. This is optional, although it should be mandatory for pictures
that are pushed (so they don't rely on their creator to still be alive to
release the resources).

The destructor callback doesn't rely on picture->p_sys anymore so in many
cases that value doesn't need to be set anymore.

After this cleanup only picture.c knows what is inside a picture_priv_t. The
picture_pool doesn't need to know about it anymore.

Steve Lhomme (19):
  vout: kms: don't use a custom picture destroy
  picture_pool: factorize the code to clone a picture for Wait/Get
  picture: pass the clone destructor via a picture_gc_t structure
  picture: move the resource init outside of picture_InitPrivate
  picture: do not use picture_NewFromResource for picture_InternalClone
  picture: use picture_DestroyDummy for picture_NewFromFormat() with no
    planes
  picture: allow NULL gc callback
  picture: pass a picture_gc_t directly to picture_NewFromResource()
  picture: fix indentation
  vout: opengl: do not setup the picture planes a second time
  vout: opengl: keep the number of bound planes in picture_sys_t
  chroma: copy: set the picture test buffers after
    picture_NewFromResource()
  picture: pass the opaque pointer to the destroy callback rather than
    the picture
  picture: make picture_priv_t private to picture.c
  vt_utils: set the picture planes once the picture is created
  vout: fb: set the picture planes once the picture is created
  vout: kms: set the picture planes once the picture is created
  vout: vmem: set the picture planes once the picture is created
  picture: remove unused resource parameter from picture_NewFromResource
