Michael Niedermayer 76398b2b4f avcodec/bsf/dts2pts: evict unconsumable nodes from the poc tree
Each pending packet consumes up to poc_diff tree nodes when it is
output, so the packets in the FIFO can consume at most nb_pending nodes
in total. Frames whose tree lookup misses on output leave their nodes
behind, and damaged or crafted streams can make that happen
indefinitely, growing the tree without limit.

Track the node count and insertion order, keep the leftovers of up to
MAX_DAMAGED_FRAMES frames and beyond that evict the nodes unconsumed
the longest. Timestamps of valid frames are unaffected unless more
frames than that are damaged. No eviction is done at EOF, where nodes
are deliberately kept to regenerate timestamps from.

Of all h264/hevc conformance samples only MR3_TANDBERG_B.264 triggers
evictions, and no sample changes output.

Fixes: unbounded memory growth with damaged streams

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 means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected 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.
