Detailed Description

The MediaPad represents a pad of an entity in the media graph.

Pads are created from the information provided by the Media Controller API in the media_v2_pad structure. They reference the entity() they belong to.

In addition to their graph id, media graph pads are identified by an index unique in the context of the entity the pad belongs to.

A pad can be either a 'source' pad or a 'sink' pad. This information is captured in the pad flags().

Pads are connected through links. Links originating from a source pad are outbound links, and links arriving at a sink pad are inbound links. Pads reference all the links() that are connected to them.
