SDL now builds with gcc 7.2 with the following command line options:
-Wall -pedantic-errors -Wno-deprecated-declarations -Wno-overlength-strings --std=c99
This tends to be a frequent spot where drivers hang, and the waits were
often unreliable in any case.
Instead, our audio thread now alerts the driver that we're done streaming audio
(which currently XAudio2 uses to alert the system not to warn about the
impending underflow) and then SDL_Delay()'s for a duration that's reasonable
to drain the DMA buffers before closing the device.
Moved this code from winmm into core so both can use it.
DirectSound (at least on Win10) also returns truncated device names, even
though it's handed in as a string pointer and not a static-sized buffer. :/
- It's now always called if device->hidden isn't NULL, even if OpenDevice()
failed halfway through. This lets implementation code not have to clean up
itself on every possible failure point; just return an error and SDL will
handle it for you.
- Implementations can assume this->hidden != NULL and not check for it.
- implementations don't have to set this->hidden = NULL when done, because
the caller is always about to free(this).
- Don't reset other fields that are in a block of memory about to be free()'d.
- Implementations all now free things like internal mix buffers last, after
closing devices and such, to guarantee they definitely aren't in use anymore
at the point of deallocation.
The internal function SDL_EGL_LoadLibrary() did not delete and remove a mostly
uninitialized data structure if loading the library first failed. A later try to
use EGL then skipped initialization and assumed it was previously successful
because the data structure now already existed. This led to at least one crash
in the internal function SDL_EGL_ChooseConfig() because a NULL pointer was
dereferenced to make a call to eglBindAPI().
