Andreas Rheinhardt 92d0a598ad avcodec/pthread_slice: Don't use static variable, fix race
ff_slice_thread_init() uses a static variable to hold a function
pointer, although the value of said pointer needn't be saved between
different runs of this function at all.

The reason for this being so is probably that said pointer points to
a static function (if used); but storage class specifiers like "static"
are not part of the type of an object and so including it in the pointer
declaration is wrong (anyway, "static" means different things in both
contexts: for the function declaration it affects linkage, for the
variable storage duration).

Using a static variable here can lead to races, e.g. when initializing
VP9 (for which said function pointer was added) and H.264 with slice
threading. The latter has the FF_CODEC_CAP_INIT_THREADSAFE flag set and
is therefore unaffected by the lock guarding initializations of
decoders.

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides a mean to alter decoded Audio and Video through chain of filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.

Documentation
