[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v2 3/4] avcodec/pthread_frame: Check initializing mutexes/condition variables

Andreas Rheinhardt:
> Up until now, initializing the mutexes/condition variables wasn't
> checked by ff_frame_thread_init(). This commit changes this.
> 
> Given that it is not documented to be save to destroy a zeroed but
> otherwise uninitialized mutex/condition variable, one has to choose
> between two approaches: Either one duplicates the code to free them
> in ff_frame_thread_init() in case of errors or one records which have
> been successfully initialized. This commit takes the latter approach:
> For each of the two structures with mutexes/condition variables
> an array containing the offsets of the members to initialize is added.
> Said array is used both for initializing and freeing and the only thing
> that needs to be recorded is how many of these have been successfully
> initialized.

MAX_MUTEX/COND_IDX is a remnant of an earlier version. Removed locally.
