The code said "decoder_command==STOP" because that was a conversion
from the old "dc->stop" test. As we can now check for all commands in
one test, we can simply rewrite that to decoder_command!=NONE.
On our way to stabilize the decoder API, we will one day remove the
input stream functions. The most basic function, read() will be
provided by decoder_api.h with this patch. It already contains a loop
(still with manual polling), error/eof handling and decoder command
checks. This kind of code used to be duplicated in all decoder
plugins.
With the functions decoder_plugin_register() and
decoder_plugin_unregister(), decoder plugins can register a
"secondary" plugin, like the flac input plugin does this for
"oggflac".
"decoder plugin" is a better name than "input plugin", since the
plugin does not actually do the input - InputStream does. Also don't
use typedef, so we can forward-declare it if required.
Some decoder commands are implemented in the decoder plugins, thus
they need to have an API call to signal that their current command has
been finished. Let them use the new decoder_command_finished()
instead of the internal dc_command_finished().
Another big patch which hides internal mpd APIs from decoder plugins:
decoder plugins regularly poll dc->command; expose it with a
decoder_api.h function.
InputPlugin is the API which is implemented by a decoder plugin. This
belongs to the public API/ABI, so move it to decoder_api.h. It will
later be renamed to something like "decoder_plugin".
dc->audioFormat is set once by the decoder plugins before invoking
decoder_initialized(); hide dc->audioFormat and let the decoder pass
an AudioFormat pointer to decoder_initialized().
We are now beginning to remove direct structure accesses from the
decoder plugins. decoder_clear() and decoder_flush() mask two very
common buffer functions.
decoder_initialized() sets the state to DECODE_STATE_DECODE and wakes
up the player thread. It is called by the decoder plugin after its
internal initialization is finished. More arguments will be added
later to prevent direct accesses to the DecoderControl struct.
The decoder struct should later be made opaque to the decoder plugin,
because maintaining a stable struct ABI is quite difficult. The ABI
should only consist of a small number of stable functions.
dc_command_finished() is invoked by the decoder thread when it has
finished a command (sent by the player thread). It resets dc.command
and wakes up the player thread. This combination was used at a lot of
places, and by introducing this function, the code will be more
readable.
Much of the existing code queries all three variables sequentially.
Since only one of them can be set at a time, this can be optimized and
unified by merging all of them into one enum variable. Later, the
"command" checks can be expressed in a "switch" statement.
Also enable -Wunused-parameter - this forces us to add the gcc
"unused" attribute to a lot of parameters (mostly library callback
functions), but it's worth it during code refactorizations.
We had functions names varied between
outputBufferFoo, fooOutputBuffer, and output_buffer_foo
That was too confusing for my little brain to handle.
And the global variable was somehow named 'cb' instead of
the more obvious 'ob'...

All of our main singleton data structures are implicitly shared,
so there's no reason to keep passing them around and around in
the stack and making our internal API harder to deal with.

This at least makes the argument list to a lot of our plugin

The patch "convert blocks until the buffer is full" did not update

Not having to loop for every sample byte (depending on a variable
unknown at compile time) saves a lot of CPU cycles. We could consider
reimplementing this function with liboil...

flacWrite() is the only function which sets data->chunk_length. If we
flush the buffer before we return, we can assume that it is always
empty upon entering flacWrite().

Move the inner loop which converts samples to flac_convert(). There
it is isolated and easier to optimize. This function does not have to
worry about buffer boundaries; the caller (i.e. flacWrite())
calculates how much is left and is responsible for flushing. That
saves a lot of superfluous range checks within the loop.

Check for flushing the chunk buffer only once per sample, before
iterating over channels and bytes. This saves another 5% CPU cycles.

AudioFormat.bits is volatile, and to read it, 3 pointers had to be
deferenced. Calculate this value once. This speeds up this function
by 5%.

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.

DECODE_STATE_STOP is always set as dc->state, and dc->stop
is always cleared. So handle it in decodeStart once rather
than doing it in every plugin.

if mpc_decoder_initialize() fails.

For the default: case, just use the error message that libFLAC
provides instead of using something ambiguous. Also, this gets
rid of long lines in the code, making it easier to digest.
Of course, we save ~100 bytes of text space in the process :)

Some compilers and linkers aren't smart enough to optimize this,
as global variables are implictly initialized to zero. As a
