g_new(T, n) is neater than g_malloc(sizeof(T) * n). It's also safer,
for two reasons. One, it catches multiplication overflowing size_t.
Two, it returns T * rather than void *, which lets the compiler catch
more type errors.
This commit only touches allocations with size arguments of the form
sizeof(T).

This is a patch to improve the pulseaudio playback experience.
Asking pulseaudio for a playback latency of 15ms is quite
demanding. Increase this to 46ms. The total playback latency
now is 31ms larger. One of the next patches will reduce the
total playback latency again by more than 46ms.
Here is a quote from the PulseAudio Latency Control
documentation: 'For the sake of (...) drop-out safety always
make sure to pick the highest latency possible that fulfills
your needs.'

Tell PulseAudio to send recorded audio data in smaller chunks
than timer_period, so there's a good chance that qemu can read
recorded audio data every time it looks for new data.
PulseAudio tries to send buffer updates at a fragsize / 2 rate.
With fragsize = timer_period / 2 * 3 the update rate is 75% of
timer_period. The lower limit for the recording buffer size

The pulseaudio backend currently converts, clips and copies audio
playback samples in the mixing-engine sample buffer multiple
times.
In qpa_get_buffer_out() the function pa_stream_begin_write()
returns a rather large buffer and this allows audio_pcm_hw_run_out()
in audio/audio.c to copy all samples in the mixing-engine buffer
to the pulse audio buffer. Immediately after copying, qpa_write()
notices with a call to pa_stream_writable_size() that pulse audio
only needs a smaller part of the copied samples and ignores the
rest. This copy and ignore process happens several times for each
audio sample.
To fix this behaviour, call pa_stream_writable_size() in
qpa_get_buffer_out() to limit the number of samples
audio_pcm_hw_run_out() will convert. With this change the
pulseaudio pcm_ops functions put_buffer_out and write are no
longer identical and a separate qpa_put_buffer_out is needed.

Pulseaudio normally assumes that when the server wants it, the client
can generate the audio samples and send it right away. Unfortunately
this is not the case with QEMU -- it's up to the emulated system when
does it generate the samples. Buffering the samples and sending them
from a background thread is just a workaround, that doesn't work too
well. Instead enable pa's compatibility support and let pa worry about

The latency of a connection to the PulseAudio server is determined by
the tlength parameter. This was hardcoded to 10ms, which is a bit too
tight on my machine, causing audio on host and guest to malfunction.
A setting of 15ms works fine here. To allow tweaking, I also made the
setting configurable via the new -audiodev config. This allows to squeeze out better timings in scenarios where the emulation allows it.
I also removed setting of the minreq parameter to (seemingly arbitrary) half the latency, since it showed worse audio quality during my tests. Allowing PulseAudio to request smaller chunks helped.

Audio drivers now get an Audiodev * as config paramters, instead of the
global audio_option structs. There is some code in audio/audio_legacy.c
that converts the old environment variables to audiodev options (this
way backends do not have to worry about legacy options). It also
contains a replacement of -audio-help, which prints out the equivalent
-audiodev based config of the currently specified environment variables.
Note that backends are not updated and still rely on environment
variables.
Also note that (due to moving try-poll from global to backend specific
option) currently ALSA and OSS will always try poll mode, regardless of

The point of writing a macro embedded in a 'do { ... } while (0)'
loop (particularly if the macro has multiple statements or would
otherwise end with an 'if' statement) is so that the macro can be
used as a drop-in statement with the caller supplying the
trailing ';'. Although our coding style frowns on brace-less 'if':
if (cond)
statement;
else
something else;
that is the classic case where failure to use do/while(0) wrapping
would cause the 'else' to pair with any embedded 'if' in the macro
rather than the intended outer 'if'. But conversely, if the macro
includes an embedded ';', then the same brace-less coding style
would now have two statements, making the 'else' a syntax error
rather than pairing with the outer 'if'. Thus, even though our
coding style with required braces is not impacted, ending a macro
with ';' makes our code harder to port to projects that use
brace-less styles.
The change should have no semantic impact. I was not able to
fully compile-test all of the changes (as some of them are
examples of the ugly bit-rotting debug print statements that are
completely elided by default, and I didn't want to recompile
with the necessary -D witnesses - cleaning those up is left as a
bite-sized task for another day); I did, however, audit that for
all files touched, all callers of the changed macros DID supply
a trailing ';' at the callsite, and did not appear to be used
as part of a brace-less conditional.
Found mechanically via: $ git grep -B1 'while (0);' | grep -A1 \\\\
