volatile provides absolutely no guarantee thread-safety in SMP environments. volatile was designed to access memory locations in peripheral hardware directly; not for SMP. If volatile is needed to work properly on SMP, then it is only hiding subtle bugs. volatile only prevents the /compiler/ from making optimizations when accessing variables. CPUs do their own optimizations at runtime so it cannot guarantee registers of CPUs are flushed to memory cache-coherent access on different CPUs. Furthermore, the thread-communication via condition variables between threads sharing audio formats already results in memory barriers. |

Music Player Daemon (MPD) http://www.musicpd.org A daemon for playing music of various formats. Music is played through the server's audio device. The daemon stores info about all available music, and this info can be easily searched and retrieved. Player control, info retrieval, and playlist management can all be managed remotely. To install MPD, see INSTALL. MPD includes mp4ff in the source, due to licensing issues of the newer version and includes bugfixes with the properly licensed version. mp4ff is released under the GPL and copyrighted by M.
