It is generally believed to be a good idea to split up a header file if
that's easy to do.
Remove vss_get_fec_eof_packet().2026-04-10T19:49:37ZAndre Nollmaan@tuebingen.mpg.de2026-03-24T22:57:47Zurn:sha1:9f3f44ff33cd34940b842f2ccd0bcd0f180d338e
The only user may well refer to the #defined string directly. Since udp_send.c
does not include fec.h, the FEC_HEADER_SIZE macro moves to para.h.

There is only a single line left of the original code: the #define of the
FEC_MAGIC constant. This does not warrant the big boilerplate comment we have
now, so just drop it. An identical comment remains in fec.c, whose code *is*
derived as described in the comments there.

This patch adds the first draft of a FEC implementation based
on code by Luigi Rizzo.
On the server side, the FEC encoding is done within the virtual
streaming system which also contains the timing routines for sending
a FEC-encoded audio stream. Senders my request such an encoded stream
by calling vss_add_fec_client() with a fec_client_parms structure
that contains the FEC parameters and a callback function which is used
to actually send the data.
On the receiver side, the new fecdec filter is introduced which must
be used to decode a FEC-encoded stream. As the fec parameters are
contained in the header of each data slice of the encoded stream, no
options to this filter are necessary.
ATM, FEC is only used by the udp sender/receiver, but other protocols
can be easily changed to use FEC as well.
This new code is still experimental, lacks documentation and the fec
parameters can currently only be changed by editing the source code.
