This moves pending messages\nfor the object to the message queue of the new thread. Patch 02/18 fixes\na bug in the implementation that forgot to wake up the event loop of the\nnew thread, and patch 03/18 fixes a bug that prevented dispatching\nmessage to the main thread.\n\nThe next three patches split the slot-related classes from signal.h\n(04/18), decouple them from the signal implementation (05/18) and use\nthem to add a new asynchronous method invocation mechanism for the\nObject class (06/18). Patch 07/18 then adds a message to notify Object\ninstances of thread move. The next two patches are new tests for those\nAPIs.\n\nPatches 10/18 to 12/18 bind CameraManager, EventNotifier and Timer\ninstances to threads by inheriting from the Object class. The\nEventNotifier and Timer classes now support being moved to a different\nthread with proper operation with the new thread's event loop. The next\ntwo patches add new tests for those operations.\n\nPatch 15/18 adds a parent-child hierarchy in the Object class, to\nsimplify moving objects to threads. Patch 16/18 supports this by adding\na parent argument to the constructor of various classes. Patch 17/18\nextends the object test to cover the parent-child relationships, and\npatch 18/18 shows how they can simplify code.\n\nLaurent Pinchart (18):\n libcamera: object: Make message() method protected\n libcamera: thread: Wake up target thread when moving objects\n libcamera: thread: Support dispatching messages to main thread\n libcamera: signal: Split Slot implementation to reusable classes\n libcamera: bound_method: Decouple from Signal implementation\n libcamera: object: Add an asynchronous method invocation method\n libcamera: object: Notify objects of thread move\n test: Add Object::invokeMethod() test\n test: Add Object class thread affinity test\n libcamera: camera_manager: Bind CameraManager to threads\n libcamera: event_notifier: Bind event notifiers to threads\n libcamera: timer: Bind timers to threads\n test: Add EventNotifier thread move test\n test: Add Timer thread move test\n libcamera: object: Create parent-child relationships\n libcamera: Add parent argument to constructors of Object-derived\n classes\n test: object: Extend object test to verify parent-child relationships\n test: Simplify tests with parent-child relationships\n\n Documentation/Doxyfile.in | 10 +-\n include/libcamera/bound_method.h | 130 +++++++++++++++++++\n include/libcamera/camera_manager.h | 4 +-\n include/libcamera/event_notifier.h | 10 +-\n include/libcamera/meson.build | 1 +\n include/libcamera/object.h | 32 ++++-\n include/libcamera/signal.h | 151 +++-------------------\n include/libcamera/timer.h | 13 +-\n src/libcamera/bound_method.cpp | 27 ++++\n src/libcamera/camera_manager.cpp | 4 +-\n src/libcamera/event_dispatcher_poll.cpp | 3 +\n src/libcamera/event_notifier.cpp | 22 +++-\n src/libcamera/include/message.h | 22 ++--\n src/libcamera/include/thread.h | 5 +-\n src/libcamera/meson.build | 1 +\n src/libcamera/message.cpp | 50 ++++++--\n src/libcamera/object.cpp | 120 +++++++++++++++---\n src/libcamera/signal.cpp | 23 ----\n src/libcamera/thread.cpp | 26 +++-\n src/libcamera/timer.cpp | 33 ++++-\n test/event-thread.cpp | 106 ++++++++++++++++\n test/meson.build | 4 +\n test/object-invoke.cpp | 137 ++++++++++++++++++++\n test/object.cpp | 158 ++++++++++++++++++++++++\n test/timer-thread.cpp | 72 +++++++++++\n 25 files changed, 948 insertions(+), 216 deletions(-)\n create mode 100644 include/libcamera/bound_method.h\n create mode 100644 src/libcamera/bound_method.cpp\n create mode 100644 test/event-thread.cpp\n create mode 100644 test/object-invoke.cpp\n create mode 100644 test/object.cpp\n create mode 100644 test/timer-thread.cpp"}
