The problem I was seeing was that the the ALSA hotplug thread would call SDL_RemoveAudioDevice, but my application code was not seeing an SDL_AUDIODEVICEREMOVED event to go along with it. To fix it, I added some code into SDL_RemoveAudioDevice to call SDL_OpenedAudioDeviceDisconnected on the corresponding open audio device. There didn't appear to be a way to cross reference the handle that SDL_RemoveAudioDevice gets and the SDL_AudioDevice pointer that SDL_OpenedAudioDeviceDisconnected needs, so I ended up adding a void *handle field to struct SDL_AudioDevice so that I could do the cross reference.
Is there some other way beside adding a void *handle field to the struct to get the proper information for SDL_OpenedAudioDeviceDisconnected?
- 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().
