SDLActivity thread priority is unchanged, by default -10 (THREAD_PRIORITY_VIDEO).
SDLAudio thread priority was -4 (SDL_SetThreadPriority was ignored) and is now -16 (THREAD_PRIORITY_AUDIO).
SDLThread thread priority was 0 (THREAD_PRIORITY_DEFAULT) and is -4 (THREAD_PRIORITY_DISPLAY).
Only __ARM_NEON is defined with Android NDK and arm64-v8a
Tested on ndk-r18, ndk-r13 and also Xcode.
(Visual Studio needs a different fix).
Fixes Bugzilla #4409.
Include guards in most changed files were missing, I added them keeping
the same style as other SDL files. In some cases I moved the include
guards around to be the first thing the header has to take advantage of
any possible improvements compiler may have for inclusion guards.
This means that if you have two devices named "Soundblaster Pro" in your
machine, one will be reported as "Soundblaster Pro" and the other as
"Soundblaster Pro (2)".
This makes it so you can't into a position where one of your devices can't
be opened because another is sitting on the same name.

Added SDL_AUDIO_ALLOW_SAMPLES_CHANGE flag enabling users of SDL_OpenAudioDevice to get
the sample size of the actual hardware buffer vs having a stream created to handle the
delta
This would cause problems in various ways, but specifically triggers an
assert when you close a WASAPI capture device in an app running over RDP.
Related to (but not the actual bug) in Bugzilla #3924.
At the HG state abdd17144682, 64-bit assemblies are using SSE2-based resampler, produces junk sound when converting the S32 -> Float32 -> S16 chain. The `NEED_SCALAR_CONVERTER_FALLBACKS` thing works perfectly.
If I will find a reason that caused this mistake, I'll send a patch by myself.
The previous code attempted to use set_buffer_size / set_period_size
discretely, favoring the parameters which generated a buffer size that was
exactly 2x the requested buffer size. This solution ultimately prioritizes
only the buffer size, which comes at a large performance cost on some machines
where this results in an excessive number of periods. In my case, for a 4096
sample buffer, this configured the device to use 37 periods with a period size
of 221 samples and a buffer size of 8192 samples. With 37 periods, the SDL
Audio thread was consuming 25% of the CPU.
This code has been refactored to use set_period_size and set_buffer_size
together. set_period_size is called first to attempt to set the period to
exactly match the requested buffer size, and set_buffer_size is called second
to further refine the parameters to attempt to use only 2 periods. The
fundamental change here is that the period size / count won't go to extreme
values if the buffer size can't be exactly matched, the buffer size should
instead just increase to the next closest multiple of the target period size
that is supported. After changing this, for a 4096 sample buffer, the device
is configured to use 3 periods with a period size of 4096 samples and a buffer
size of 12288 samples. With only 3 periods, the SDL Audio thread doesn't even
show up when profiling.
Fixes Bugzilla #4156.

Launching an SDL application with SDL_AUDIODRIVER=jack, and then calling SDL_OpenAudioDevice() with whatever parameters fails with an error like this one:
SDL_OpenAudioDevice: Couldn't connect JACK ports: SDL:sdl_jack_output_0 => system:midi_playback_1
This happens because JACK_OpenDevice in src/audio/jack/SDL_jackaudio.c blindly tries to connect to all input ports without checking whether they are for audio or midi.
The fix is to check port types and ignore all non audio ports. Also I removed devports field from struct SDL_PrivateAudioData, because it's never really used and removing unused ports from it would be PITA.

The following explains why this bug was happening:
This crash was caused because the audio session was being set as active [session setActive:YES error:&err] when the audio device was actually being CLOSED. Certain cases the audio session being set to active would fail and the method would return right away. Because of the way the error was handled we never removed the SDLInterruptionListener thus leaking it. Later when an interruption was received the THIS_ object would contain a pointer to an already released device causing the crash.
The fix:
When only one device remained open and it was being closed we needed to set the audio session as NOT active and completely ignore the returned error to successfully release the SDLInterruptionListener. I think the user assumed that the open_playback_devices and open_capture_devices would equal 0 when all of them where closed but the truth is that at the end of the closing process that the open devices count is decremented.
(It gets upset at the -2147483648, thinking this should be an unsigned value
because 2147483648 is too large for an int32, so the negative sign upsets the
compiler.)
The concern is that a massive int sample, like 0x7FFFFFFF, won't fit in a
float32, which doesn't have enough bits to hold a whole number this large,
just to divide it to get a value between 0 and 1.
Previously we would convert to double, to get more bits, do the division, and
cast back to a float, but this is expensive.
Casting to double is more accurate, but it's 2x to 3x slower. Shifting out
the least significant byte of an int32, so it'll definitely fit in a float,
and dividing by 0x7FFFFF is still accurate to about 5 decimal places, and the
difference doesn't appear to be perceptable.
SDL now builds with gcc 7.2 with the following command line options:
-Wall -pedantic-errors -Wno-deprecated-declarations -Wno-overlength-strings --std=c99
XAudio2 doesn't have capture support, so WASAPI was to replace it; the holdout
was WinRT, which still needed it as its primary audio target until the WASAPI
code code be made to work.
The support matrix now looks like:
WinXP: directsound by default, winmm as a fallback for buggy drivers.
Vista+: WASAPI (directsound and winmm as fallbacks for debugging).
WinRT: WASAPI
