If the sample format isn't supported by the device (i.e. 24 bit on
low-end sound chips), fall back to 16 bit output. There is code in
pcm_utils.c which converts PCM data to 16 bit.
Convert any number of channels to stereo. In fact, this isn't really
stereo, it's rater mono blown up to stereo. This patch should only
make it possible to play 5.1 files at all; "real" conversion to stereo
should be implemented, but for now, this is better than nothing.
In order to be able to deal with non-trivial conversions,
pcm_convertChannels() needs to know both the input and the output
channel count. Simplify buffer allocation in that function.
Moved code from pcm_convertChannels() to pcm_convert_channels_1_to_2()
and pcm_convert_channels_2_to_1(). Improved the quality of
pcm_convert_channels_2_to_1() by calculating the arithmetic mean value
of both samples.
buffered_before_play was copied to struct player because it was used
to disable buffering when seeking. Instead of mainaining a copy of
this number, move just the flag to the player struct.
Renamed audio_configFormat to configured_audio_format. Renamed
audio_buffer.format to input_audio_format. Simplified its
initialization in openAudioDevice().
audio.c maintained one of MPD's many layers of audio buffers. It was
without any benefit, since playAudio() can simply send the source
buffer directly to the audio output plugin.
QUEUE adds a new song to the player's queue. CANCEL clears the queue.
These two commands replace the old and complex queueState and
queueLockState code.
Simplify and merge several if clauses before the clearPlayerQueue()
invocation. Call clearPlayerQueue() only if a song is actually
queued; add an assertion for that in clearPlayerQueue().
This variable is superfluous, it is only used to copy its value to
player_control.totalTime. Since the original source of this value
(song->tag->time) will still be available at this point, we can safely
remove fileTime.
Revert e4f5d6bd "re-enable-nonblocking, but sleep if busy".
Non-blocking mode with manual sleeping doesn't help at all (by the
way, the patch should have used snd_pcm_wait() instead of
my_usleep()). ALSA knows much more about the hardware quirks, so we
just let it do the job.
Leftover from the output API changes: oss_open_default() was changed
to return a void*, but it still returned "0" to report success.
Report the OssData pointer instead.
The decoder was woken up after each chunk which had been played. That
caused a lot of superfluous context switches. Wake up the decoder
only when a certain amount of the buffer has been consumed. This
formula is somewhat arbitrary, and has to be proven experimentally.
The mp3 plugin did not use the MAD_NCHANNELS() value correctly: when a
stream was not stereo, it was assumed to be mono, although the correct
number was passed to MPD. libmad doesn't support more than 2
channels, but this change allows gcc to optimize its inlining
strategy.
The dithering function audio_linear_dither() worked for signed 16 bits
only anyway, having a variable "bits" just disables important gcc
optimizations.
A frame contains one sample per channel, thus it is sample_size *
channels. This patch includes some cleanup for various locations
where the sample size for 24 bit audio was still 3 bytes (instead of
4).
There is only once update thread at a time. Make the "modified" flag
global and remove the return values of most functions. Propagating an
error is only useful for updateDirectory(), since updateInDirectory()
will delete failed subdirectories.
The documentation for directory_update_init() was incorrect: a job ID
must be positive, not non-negative. If the update queue is full and
no job was created, it makes more sense to return 0 instead of -1,
because it is more consistent with the return value of isUpdatingDB().
pthread_join() expects a "pointer to a pointer" parameter, but it got
a "pointer to an enum". On AMD64, an enum is smaller than a pointer,
leading to a buffer overflow.
In updateInDirectory(), add new directories immediately and
delete them when they turn out to be empty. This simplifies the code
and allows us to eliminate addSubDirectoryToDirectory().
If the user requests database update during startup, call
directory_update_init(). This should be changed to fully asynchronous
update later.
For this to work, main_notify has to be initialized before db_init().
The algorithm in addDirectoryPathToDB() can be simplified further if
it is combined with the function addParentPathToDB(). Since there is
no other caller of addDirectoryPathToDB(), we can do that. This saves
another large stack buffer.
This recursive function is very dangerous because it allocates a large
buffer on the stack in every iteration. That may be misused to
generate a stack overflow.
When a directory failed to update, it was removed from the database,
without freeing all children and songs (memory leak), and without
locking (race condition). Introduce the functions clear_directory()
and delete_directory(), which do both.
Don't use db_get_directory() and traverse the full path with every
directory being loaded. Just see if the current parent contains the
entry. Everything else would be invalid anyway..
A manipulated database could trigger an assertion failure, because the
parent didn't match. Do a proper check if the new directory is within
the parent's. This uses FATAL() to bail out, so MPD still dies, but
it doesn't crash.
Remove clutter from directory.c. Everything which saves or loads
to/from the hard disk goes to directory_save.c, and code which sends
directory information to the client is moved into directory_print.c.
Having an array with disabled entries sucks. Removed that
DISABLED_SHOUT_ENCODER_PLUGIN macro, and fill the plugin list only
with plugins which are actually enabled. This should be done for all
plugin types.
"volume" was passed as an unsigned integer, which is correct. It's
just that when it was multiplied with the sample value, the whole
operation was changed to unsigned, breaking the algorithm (and Qball's
ears). Internally change "volume" to signed.
With commit 6dcd7fea (if I am not mistaken) the error returned when
you try to save to an existing playlist is wrong. Instead of
MPD_ACK_ERROR_EXIST, MPD_ACK_ERROR_NO_EXIST is returned. This is
obviously wrong and breaks gmpc.
Commit 0bfe7802 broke update for new files in the root directory,
because music_root->path was an empty string and not NULL. There were
some NULL tests missing. Change them to !isRootDirectory(path)
instead of path!=NULL.
Taming the directory.c monster, part II: move the database management
stuff to database. directory.c should only contain code which works
on directory objects.
Instead of returning 0 or -1, return true on success and false on
failure. This seems more natural, and when the C library was
designed, there was no "bool" data type.
Provide separate constructors for creating a remote song, a local
song, and one for loading data from a song file. This way, we can add
more assertions.
exploreDirectory() duplicates some code in updateDirectory(). Merge
both functions, and use directory_is_empty() to determine whether
update or explore mode should be used.
The source directory.c mixes several libraries: directory object
management, database management and database update, resulting in a
1000+ line monster. Move the whole database update code to update.c.
Having all functions as static (non-inline) functions generates GCC
warnings, and duplicates binary code across several object files.
Most of dirvec's methods are too complex for becoming inline
functions. Move them all to dirvec.c and publish the prototypes in
dirvec.h.
pthread_cond_wait() may wake up spuriously. To prevent superfluous
state checks, loop until the "pending" flag becomes true. Removed the
dangerous assertion.
This makes the update code thread-safe and doesn't penalize
the playlist code by complicating it with complicated and
error-prone locks (and the associated overhead, not everybody
has a thread-implementation as good as NPTL).
The update task blocks during the delete; but the update task is
a slow task anyways so we can block w/o people caring too much.
This was also our only freeSong call site, so remove that
function.
Note that deleting entire directories is not fully thread-safe,
yet; as their traversals are not yet locked.
Only one lock is used for all songvec traversals since
they're rarely changed. Also, minimize lock time and
release it before calling iterator functions since they
may block (updateSongInfo => stat/open/seek/read).
This lock only protects songvecs (and all of them) during
traversals; not the individual song structures themselves.
* Add missing headers in Makefile.am
* remove mp4ff.dsp (Win32 crap)
* Add scripts, m4, bs, autogen.sh to allow for hotfixes by the
SCM-challenged. (downloading the source via git is NOT a
lightweight operation for everybody).
We already know if a song is a URL or not based on whether it
has parentDir defined or not. Hopefully one day in the future
we can drop HTTP support from MPD entirely when an HTTP
filesystem comes along and we can access streams via open(2).
The "packed" attribute may have negative side effects on performance.
Remove the "packed" attribute, and increase the size of "song.url" to
a multiple of the machine word size.
This got broken when listHandlerFunc was removed. Since we no
longer need it and it's confusing, remove processCommandInternal
and just use process_command.
Instead of allocating a new one, just reuse an existing
one if one is found when rereading the DB. This is a small
makes the previous commit work on subdirectories
of the root music directory.
[1] "song: better handling of existing songs when rereading DB"
commands should really not behave differently if they're issued
inside a command list or not; so stop having special handler
functions to deal with them. "update" was the only command
that used this functionality and I changed that in the last
commit to serialize access.
Now the "update" command can be issued multiple times regardless
of whether the client is in list mode or not.
We serialize the update tasks to prevent updates from trampling
over each other and will spawn another update task
once the current one is finished updating and reaped.
Right now we cap the queue size to 32 which is probably enough (I
bet most people usually run update with no argument anyways);
but we can make it grow/shrink dynamically if needed. There'll
still be a hard-coded limit to prevent DoS attacks, though.
Add support for 24 bit PCM samples to all functions. Note that
pcm_convertAudioFormat() converts 24 bit samples to 16 bit; to
preserve full quality, support for "real" 24 bit conversion should be
added.
Moved code into separate bit specific functions:
- pcm_volumeChange() -> pcm_volume_change_X()
- pcm_add() -> pcm_add_X()
- pcm_convertTo16bit() -> pcm_convert_8_to_16()
pcm_mix() might overflow the destination buffer if it is smaller than
the second buffer. This is ok because the physical buffer size passed
by cross_fade_apply() is always big enough, but clutters pcm_mix()
with complicated length checks and contains a dangerous buffer
overflow pitfall. Simplify pcm_mix()/pcm_add() and pass only the
smaller buffer size; let cross_fade_apply() do the memcpy().
pause() puts the audio output into pause mode: if supported, it may
perform a special action, which keeps the device open, but does not
play anything. Output plugins like "shout" might want to play silence
during pause, so their clients won't be disconnected. Plugins which
do not support pausing will simply be closed, and have to be reopened
when unpaused.
This pach includes an implementation for the shout plugin, which
sends silence chunks.
The function audio_output_is_pending() returns whether there is a
pending command. This is useful for output plugins as a break
condition for longer loops.
The old struct initializers are error prone and don't allow moving
elements around. Since we are going to overhaul some of the APIs
soon, it's easier to have all implementations use C99 initializers.
Since we use a C99 compiler now, we can assert that the C99 standard
headers are available, no need for complicated compile time checks.
Kill mpd_types.h.
Having an enum type is much nicer than an anonymous integer plus CPP
macros. Note that the old code didn't save any space by declaring the
variable 8 bit, due to padding.
Seeing the "mpd_" prefix _everywhere_ is mind-numbing as the
mind needs to retrain itself to skip over the first 4 tokens of
a type to get to its meaning. So avoid having extra characters
on my terminal to make it easier to follow code at 2:30 am in
the morning.
Please report any new issues you may come across on Free
toolchains. I realize how difficult it can be to build/maintain
cross-compiling toolchains and I have no intention of forcing
people to upgrade their toolchains to build mpd.
Tested with gcc 2.95.4 and and gcc 4.3.1 on x86-32.

This only breaks "update" under list command mode and
no other commands. This can be done more optimally
without the extra heap allocation via xstrdup(); but is
uncommon enough to not matter.
It was a huge confusing mess of parameter passing around
and around. Add a few extra assertions to ensure we're
handling parent/child relationships properly.
This is like basename(3) but with predictable semantics independent
of C library or build options used. This is also much more strict
and does not account for trailing slashes (mpd should never deal with
trailing slashes on internal functions).
