The libcamera internal headers are located in src/libcamera/include/.
The directory is added to the compiler headers search path with a meson
include_directories() directive, and internal headers are included with
(e.g. for the internal semaphore.h header)
#include "semaphore.h"
All was well, until libcxx decided to implement the C++20
synchronization library. The __threading_support header gained a
#include <semaphore.h>
to include the pthread's semaphore support. As include_directories()
adds src/libcamera/include/ to the compiler search path with -I, the
internal semaphore.h is included instead of the pthread version.
Needless to say, the compiler isn't happy.
Three options have been considered to fix this issue:
- Use -iquote instead of -I. The -iquote option instructs gcc to only
consider the header search path for headers included with the ""
version. Meson unfortunately doesn't support this option.
- Rename the internal semaphore.h header. This was deemed to be the
beginning of a long whack-a-mole game, where namespace clashes with
system libraries would appear over time (possibly dependent on
particular system configurations) and would need to be constantly
fixed.
- Move the internal headers to another directory to create a unique
namespace through path components. This causes lots of churn in all
the existing source files through the all project.
The first option would be best, but isn't available to us due to missing
support in meson. Even if -iquote support was added, we would need to
fix the problem before a new version of meson containing the required
support would be released.
The third option is thus the only practical solution available. Bite the
bullet, and do it, moving headers to include/libcamera/internal/.

Make the signal connection and disconnection thread-safe, and document
them as such. This is required to make objects connectable from
different threads.
The connect(), disconnect() and emit() methods are now all protected by
a global mutex, which may generate a high lock contention. This could be
improved with finer-grained locks or with a pool of mutexes.

The slots list is touched from most of the Signal template functions. In
order to prepare for thread-safety, move handling of the list to a small
number of non-template functions in the SignalBase class.
This incidently fixes a bug in signal disconnection handling where the
signal wasn't removed from the object's signals list, as pointed out by
the signals unit test.

The bound method implementation is restricted to binding to void methods
as return values are not supported. This complicates usage of bound
methods, as non-void methods used a slots or Object::invokeMethod()
targets need to be wrapped in a void method. Simplify this by supporting
arbitrary return types and ignoring the return value.

Move the Slot* classes to bound_method.{h,cpp} and rename them to
Bound*Method*. They will be reused to implement asynchronous method
invocation similar to cross-thread signal delivery.
This is only a move and rename, no functional changes are included.

The SlotBase implementation stores the receiver object pointer as a void
pointer internally. The pointer is then cast back to an Object pointer
when the receiver object class derives from Object. When the receiver is
an object that inherits from both the Object class and other classes,
the Object data members may not be stored at the beginning of the object
memory. The cast back to an Object pointer is thus incorrect.
Fix this by casting the receiver object pointer to an Object pointer
where the type of the receiver object is known, and pass it along with
the receiver void pointer to the SlotBase class. The SlotBase class
stores both pointers internally, and doesn't need the isObject_ field
anymore as the same information is obtained from checking if the Object
pointer is null.
To avoid confusing the two pointers, use the same naming scheme through
the whole implementation: "obj" points to a receiver object as an
unknown type, and "object" to the receiver object cast to an Object. The
latter is null when the receiver object doesn't inherit from the Object
class.
To further clarify the code, remove direct access to the SlotBase "obj"
and "object" fields as much as possible. They are replaced by two new
methods :
- SlotBase::disconnect() to disconnect a signal from the slot's receiver
object
- SlotBase::match() to test if an object pointer matches the slot
The match() method is a template method with a specialisation for the
Object type, to compare either the obj or the object pointer depending
on the type of the parameter. This is required as the Object destructor
calls the SignalBase::disconnect() method for signal connected to the
object, and passes a pointer to Object to that method, while the actual
object may have a different address due to the issue explained above.
The pointer must thus be compared with the stored Object pointer in that
case, not to the pointer to the receiver object.

Allow signals to cross thread boundaries by posting them to the
recipient through messages instead of calling the slot directly when the
recipient lives in a different thread.

Include the header file corresponding to the source file in the very
first position. This complies with the Google C++ coding style
guideliens, and helps ensuring that the headers are self-contained.
Three bugs are already caught by this change (missing includes or
forward declarations) in device_enumerator.h, event_dispatcher_poll.h
and pipeline_handler.h. Fix them.

When a signal is connected to a member function slot, the slot is not
disconnected when the slot object is deleted. This can lead to calling a
member function of a deleted object if the signal isn't disconnected
manually by the slot object's destructor.
Make signal handling easier by implementing a base Object class that
tracks all connected signals and disconnects from them automatically
when the object is deleted, using template specialization resolution in
the Signal class.
As inheriting from the Object class may to a too harsh requirement for
Signal usage in applications, keep the existing behaviour working if the
slot doesn't inherit from the Object class. We may reconsider this later
and require all slot objects to inherit from the Object class.
