A lot of the preparation was needed (and done in previous
months) in making update thread-safe, but here it is.
This was the first thing I made work inside a thread when I
started mpd-uclinux many years ago, and also the last thing I've
done in mainline mpd to work inside a thread, go figure.
pthreads with our existing signal blocking/handling is broken,
for now just sleep a bit in the child to prevent the CHLD handler
from being called too early. Also, improve error reporting when
handling SIGCHLD by storing the status to be called in the main
task (which can be logged, since we can't do logging inside the
sig handler).
Our linked-list implementation is wasteful and the
SongList isn't modified enough to benefit from being a linked
list. So use a more compact array of song pointers which
saves ~200K on a library with ~9K songs (on x86-32).
It hasn't been used in many years

remove --update-db option
(SVN r2719)
This should save a few thousand ops. Not worth it to malloc
for such a small (3-words on 32-bit ARM and x86) structures.

Don't pass the raw file descriptor around. This migration patch is
rather large, because all of the sources have inter dependencies - we
have to change all of them at the same time.
This patch continues the work of the previous patch: don't pass a file
descriptor at all to traverseAllIn(). Since this fd was only used to
report "directory not found" errors, we can easily move that check to
the caller. This is a great relief, since it removes the dependency
on a client connection from a lot of enumeration functions.
Database traversal should be generic, and not bound to a client
connection. This is the first step: no file descriptor for the
callback functions forEachSong() and forEachDir(). If a callback
needs the file descriptor, it has to be passed in the void*data
pointer somehow; some callbacks might need a new struct for passing
more than one parameter. This might look a bit cumbersome right now,
but our goal is to have a clean API.
Move everything which dumps song information (via tag_print.c) to a
separate source file. song_print.c gets code which writes song data
to the client; song_save.c is responsible for serializing songs from
the tag cache.
While parsing the tag cache, don't allocate the directory name from
the heap, but copy it into a buffer on the stack. This reduces heap
fragmentation by 1%.
I don't believe "interface" is a good name for something like
"connection by a client to MPD", let's call it "client". This is the
first patch in the series which changes the name, beginning with the
file name.
Try to only include headers which are really needed. We should
particularly check all "headers including other headers". The
long-term goal is to have a manageable, small API for plugins
(decoders, output) without so many mpd internals cluttering the
namespace.

I initially started to do a heavy rewrite that changed the way processes
communicated, but that was too much to do at once. So this change only
focuses on replacing the player and decode processes with threads and
using condition variables instead of polling in loops; so the changeset
itself is quiet small.
* The shared output buffer variables will still need locking
to guard against race conditions. So in this effect, we're probably
just as buggy as before. The reduced context-switching overhead of
using threads instead of processes may even make bugs show up more or
less often...
* Basic functionality appears to be working for playing local (and NFS)
audio, including:
play, pause, stop, seek, previous, next, and main playlist editing
* I haven't tested HTTP streams yet, they should work.
* I've only tested ALSA and Icecast. ALSA works fine, Icecast
metadata seems to get screwy at times and breaks song
advancement in the playlist at times.
* state file loading works, too (after some last-minute hacks with
non-blocking wakeup functions)
* The non-blocking (*_nb) variants of the task management functions are
probably overused. They're more lenient and easier to use because
much of our code is still based on our previous polling-based system.
* It currently segfaults on exit. I haven't paid much attention
to the exit/signal-handling routines other than ensuring it
compiles. At least the state file seems to work. We don't
do any cleanups of the threads on exit, yet.
* Update is still done in a child process and not in a thread.
To do this in a thread, we'll need to ensure it does proper
locking and communication with the main thread; but should
require less memory in the end because we'll be updating
the database "in-place" rather than updating a copy and
then bulk-loading when done.
* We're more sensitive to bugs in 3rd party libraries now.
My plan is to eventually use a master process which forks()
and restarts the child when it dies:

My plan is to eventually use a master process which forks()
and restarts the child when it dies:
master - just does waitpid() + fork() in a loop
\- main thread
\- decoder thread
\- player thread
At the beginning of every song, the main thread will set
a dirty flag and update the state file. This way, if we
encounter a song that triggers a segfault killing the
main thread, the master will start the replacement main
on the next song.
* The main thread still wakes up every second on select()
to check for signals; which affects power management.

This will make refactoring features easier, especially now that
pthreads support and larger refactorings are on the horizon.
Hopefully, this will make porting to other platforms (even
non-UNIX-like ones for masochists) easier, too.
os_compat.h will house all the #includes for system headers
considered to be the "core" of MPD. Headers for optional
features will be left to individual source files.

Ok, so basename(3) is even more brain-damaged, inconsistent
and/or broken than dirname(3) on most systems, but there are
broken implementations of it out there. Just use our already
existing internal parent_path() function instead and get rid
of the only place where we look for libgen.h.

thread-safety work in preparation for rewrite to use pthreads
Expect no regressions against trunk (r7078), possibly minor
performance improvements in update (due to fewer heap
allocations), but increased stack usage.
Applied the following patches:
* maxpath_str for reentrancy (temporary fix, reverted)
* path: start working on thread-safe variants of these methods
* Re-entrancy work on path/character-set conversions
* directory.c: exploreDirectory() use reentrant functions here
* directory/update: more use of reentrant functions + cleanups
* string_toupper: a strdup-less version of strDupToUpper
* get_song_url: a static-variable-free version of getSongUrl()
* Use reentrant/thread-safe get_song_url everywhere
* replace rmp2amp with the reentrant version, rmp2amp_r
* Get rid of the non-reentrant/non-thread-safe rpp2app, too.
* buffer2array: assert strdup() returns a usable value in unit tests
* replace utf8ToFsCharset and fsCharsetToUtf8 with thread-safe variants
* fix storing playlists w/o absolute paths
* parent_path(), a reentrant version of parentPath()
* parentPath => parent_path for reentrancy and thread-safety
* allow "make test" to automatically run embedded unit tests
* remove convStrDup() and maxpath_str()
* use MPD_PATH_MAX everywhere instead of MAXPATHLEN
* path: get rid of appendSlash, pfx_path and just use pfx_dir
* get_song_url: fix the ability to play songs in the top-level music_directory

As unfortunate as it is to remove such useful debugging messages, it's
necessary to fix a potential deadlock with signal handling. A bunch of
functions the debug functions call aren't safe to call from a signal
handler. There are some alternate solutions, but they're neither pretty
nor simple. So just remove them entirely for now.

Some compilers and linkers aren't smart enough to optimize this,
as global variables are implictly initialized to zero. As a
result, binaries are a bit smaller as more goes in the .bss and
less in the text section.

I'm checking for zero-size allocations and assert()-ing them,
so we can more easily get backtraces and debug problems, but we'll
also allow -DNDEBUG people to live on the edge if they wish.
We do not rely on errno when checking for OOM errors because
some implementations of malloc do not set it, and malloc
is commonly overridden by userspace wrappers.
I've spent some time looking through the source and didn't find any
obvious places where we would explicitly allocate 0 bytes, so we
shouldn't trip any of those assertions.
We also avoid allocating zero bytes because C libraries don't
handle this consistently (some return NULL, some not); and it's
dangerous either way.
