This commit adds a new audiodev backend to allow QEMU to use Pipewire as
both an audio sink and source. This backend is available on most systems

Add Pipewire entry points for QEMU Pipewire audio backend
Add wrappers for QEMU Pipewire audio backend in qpw_pcm_ops()
qpw_write function returns the current state of the stream to pwaudio
and Writes some data to the server for playback streams using pipewire
spa_ringbuffer implementation.
qpw_read function returns the current state of the stream to pwaudio and
reads some data from the server for capture streams using pipewire
spa_ringbuffer implementation. These functions qpw_write and qpw_read
are called during playback and capture.
Added some functions that convert pw audio formats to QEMU audio format
and vice versa which would be needed in the pipewire audio sink and
source functions qpw_init_in() & qpw_init_out().
These methods that implement playback and recording will create streams
for playback and capture that will start processing and will result in
the on_process callbacks to be called.
Built a connection to the Pipewire sound system server in the
qpw_audio_init() method.

Hi Volker,

It seems that for some unknown reason using audio_pcm_info_clear_buf in
playback_process causes segmentation fault. Hence I moved the handling of
buffer underruns from the playback process to the qpw_write process because
that is the underlying cause of buffer underrun.

Regards,
Dorinda.

The older patches used the correct name frame_size instead of 
sample_size. Please revert this. Further below I've written an explanation.

Please don't do that. The PipeWire audio threads have a higher priority 
than the QEMU thread. On a heavily loaded system the callbacks will be 
called even if QEMU nearly stalled. So this is the right place to detect 
a buffer underflow and continue to write silent audio frames.

There's no need for an error report. Buffer underflows are expected and 
the QEMU users can hear the problem.

There is no way to reach this code.

The third argument of pw_to_audfmt() returns the sample size.

Here you calculate the frame size from the sample size. The correct name 
is v->frame_size. I'm aware the rest of QEMU quite often uses samples as 
a synonym for frames. But new code should get the variable names right.

Sorry, I was not very clear last time. I wrote 'quantum' but I meant the 
PipeWire scheduling period.

-pw_timer(uint64_t buf_samples) "timer period = %" PRIu64
+pw_period(uint64_t quant, uint32_t rate) "period=%" PRIu64 "/%u"

This is the same you see with pw-top.
