Introduction

This is a small manual I'm writing to familiarize myself with the PulseAudio code and concepts.

Several related stuff is also thrown in the mix: Systemd socket activation, logind sessions support, libtool modules loading, etc.

This is not, and does not aim to be, a full guide. It's rather a "personal diary" of my discoveries inside the PulseAudio code base. Take everything mentioned here with a grain of salt.
