The refactoring of the audio thread in this commit
-----------------------------------------------
commit 5857c44017
Author: Michael Sevakis <jethead71@rockbox.org>

Refactor audio thread to run both recording and playback.
-----------------------------------------------
moved pcm_init() next to dsp_init() in apps/main.c:init().
Before that pcm_init() was called by audio_init().
Unfortunately the maemo init code didn't properly
wait until the maemo thread was fully initialized,
leading to dangling pointers when the code called
by pcm_init() tried to access maemo's variables.
Fix it by refactoring the "very fast shutdown" semaphore
to wait until maemo is initialized in any case.
This should also fix very rare rockbox crashes
on startup that I got once a year or so.
The new code has been tested by a script that
starts and kills rockbox after one second.

This patch redoes the filesystem code from the FAT driver up to the
clipboard code in onplay.c.
Not every aspect of this is finished therefore it is still "WIP". I
don't wish to do too much at once (haha!). What is left to do is get
dircache back in the sim and find an implementation for the dircache
indicies in the tagcache and playlist code or do something else that
has the same benefit. Leaving these out for now does not make anything
unusable. All the basics are done.
Phone app code should probably get vetted (and app path handling
just plain rewritten as environment expansions); the SDL app and
Android run well.
Main things addressed:
1) Thread safety: There is none right now in the trunk code. Most of
what currently works is luck when multiple threads are involved or
multiple descriptors to the same file are open.
2) POSIX compliance: Many of the functions behave nothing like their
counterparts on a host system. This leads to inconsistent code or very
different behavior from native to hosted. One huge offender was
rename(). Going point by point would fill a book.
3) Actual running RAM usage: Many targets will use less RAM and less
stack space (some more RAM because I upped the number of cache buffers
for large memory). There's very little memory lying fallow in rarely-used
areas (see 'Key core changes' below). Also, all targets may open the same
number of directory streams whereas before those with less than 8MB RAM
were limited to 8, not 12 implying those targets will save slightly
less.
4) Performance: The test_disk plugin shows markedly improved performance,
particularly in the area of (uncached) directory scanning, due partly to
more optimal directory reading and to a better sector cache algorithm.
Uncached times tend to be better while there is a bit of a slowdown in
dircache due to it being a bit heavier of an implementation. It's not
noticeable by a human as far as I can say.
Key core changes:
1) Files and directories share core code and data structures.
2) The filesystem code knows which descriptors refer to same file.
This ensures that changes from one stream are appropriately reflected
in every open descriptor for that file (fileobj_mgr.c).
3) File and directory cache buffers are borrowed from the main sector
cache. This means that when they are not in use by a file, they are not
wasted, but used for the cache. Most of the time, only a few of them
are needed. It also means that adding more file and directory handles
is less expensive. All one must do in ensure a large enough cache to
borrow from.
4) Relative path components are supported and the namespace is unified.
It does not support full relative paths to an implied current directory;
what is does support is use of "." and "..". Adding the former would
not be very difficult. The namespace is unified in the sense that
volumes may be specified several times along with relative parts, e.g.:
"/<0>/foo/../../<1>/bar" :<=> "/<1>/bar".
5) Stack usage is down due to sharing of data, static allocation and
less duplication of strings on the stack. This requires more
serialization than I would like but since the number of threads is
limited to a low number, the tradoff in favor of the stack seems
reasonable.
6) Separates and heirarchicalizes (sic) the SIM and APP filesystem
code. SIM path and volume handling is just like the target. Some
aspects of the APP file code get more straightforward (e.g. no path
hashing is needed).
Dircache:
Deserves its own section. Dircache is new but pays homage to the old.
The old one was not compatible and so it, since it got redone, does
all the stuff it always should have done such as:
1) It may be update and used at any time during the build process.
No longer has one to wait for it to finish building to do basic file
management (create, remove, rename, etc.).
2) It does not need to be either fully scanned or completely disabled;
it can be incomplete (i.e. overfilled, missing paths), still be
of benefit and be correct.
3) Handles mounting and dismounting of individual volumes which means
a full rebuild is not needed just because you pop a new SD card in the
slot. Now, because it reuses its freed entry data, may rebuild only
that volume.
4) Much more fundamental to the file code. When it is built, it is
the keeper of the master file list whether enabled or not ("disabled"
is just a state of the cache). Its must always to ready to be started
and bind all streams opened prior to being enabled.
5) Maintains any short filenames in OEM format which means that it does
not need to be rebuilt when changing the default codepage.
Miscellaneous Compatibility:
1) Update any other code that would otherwise not work such as the
hotswap mounting code in various card drivers.
2) File management: Clipboard needed updating because of the behavioral
changes. Still needs a little more work on some finer points.
3) Remove now-obsolete functionality such as the mutex's "no preempt"
flag (which was only for the prior FAT driver).
4) struct dirinfo uses time_t rather than raw FAT directory entry
time fields. I plan to follow up on genericizing everything there
(i.e. no FAT attributes).
5) unicode.c needed some redoing so that the file code does not try
try to load codepages during a scan, which is actually a problem with
the current code. The default codepage, if any is required, is now
kept in RAM separarately (bufalloced) from codepages specified to
iso_decode() (which must not be bufalloced because the conversion
may be done by playback threads).
Brings with it some additional reusable core code:
1) Revised file functions: Reusable code that does things such as
safe path concatenation and parsing without buffer limitations or
data duplication. Variants that copy or alter the input path may be
based off these.
To do:
1) Put dircache functionality back in the sim. Treating it internally
as a different kind of file system seems the best approach at this
time.
2) Restore use of dircache indexes in the playlist and database or
something effectively the same. Since the cache doesn't have to be
complete in order to be used, not getting a hit on the cache doesn't
unambiguously say if the path exists or not.

Abstracts threading from itself a bit, changes the way its queues are
handled and does type hiding for that as well.
Do alot here due to already required major brain surgery.
Threads may now be on a run queue and a wait queue simultaneously so
that the expired timer only has to wake the thread but not remove it
from the wait queue which simplifies the implicit wake handling.
List formats change for wait queues-- doubly-linked, not circular.
Timeout queue is now singly-linked. The run queue is still circular
as before.
Adds a better thread slot allocator that may keep the slot marked as
used regardless of the thread state. Assists in dumping special tasks
that switch_thread was tasked to perform (blocking tasks).
Deletes alot of code yet surprisingly, gets larger than expected.
Well, I'm not not minding that for the time being-- omlettes and break

Any number of readers may be in the critical section at a time and writers
are mutually exclusive to all other threads. They are a better choice when
data is rarely modified but often read and multiple threads can safely
access it for reading.
Priority inheritance is fully implemented along with other changes to the
kernel to fully support it on multiowner objects.
This also cleans up priority code in the kernel and updates some associated
structures in existing objects to the cleaner form.
Currently doesn't add the mrsw_lock.[ch] files since they're not yet
needed by anything but the supporting improvements are still useful.
This includes a typed bitarray API (bitarray.h) which is pretty basic
for now.

With LCD driver all calculation will be performed on RGB888 and the hardware/OS

It is not yet as performance optimized as the existing drivers but should be
good enough.The vast number of small changes is due to the fact that
fb_data can be a struct type now, while most of the code expected a scalar type.

CONFIG_STORAGE & STORAGE_HOSTFS allows to use parts of the storage_* API to be

SIMULATOR uses the same mechanism without explicitely defining STORAGE_HOSTFS

This should catch the case of buffer misuse which results
in corrupted cookie of next allocation. The check is performed
on move_block() so it may be a bit late.
There is buflib_check_valid() provided which checks the

On DEBUG build with --sdl-thread this check is carried out

Target that have a touchpad/touchscreen should disable it while
being locked (In order to avoid LCD to drain battery power due to
"key locked" constant reporting messages. If they a have a keylock
button this was already handled at driver level. If not (e.g. fuze+),
they will have to implement a switch at driver level that action.c
can operate on softlock.
This patch does the following for any target having a touchpad
or a touchscreen and no HAS_BUTTON_HOLD (ie any softlock target)
1) it implements the code to call button_enable_touch(bool en) in
action.c.
2) button_enable_touch is implemented in button.c and call
either touchpad_enable or touchscreen_enable
3) those two function are implemented respectively in touchscreen.c
and a new touchpad.c file. They provide a generic way to silents touch's
device and call a function at driver level where target specific code
can be implemented if possible/needed (for power saving for instance).
Those function name are touchpad_enable_device and touchscreen_enable_device
4) we implement an empty function at driver level of targets that need it
to have them still being able to compiled.

HAVE_SW_VOLUME_CONTROL is required and at this time only affects the
SDL targets using pcm-sdl.c.
Enables balance control in SDL targets, unless mono volume is in use.
Compiles software volume control as unbuffered when
PCM_SW_VOLUME_UNBUFFERED is defined. This avoids the overhead and
extra latency introduced by the double buffer when it is not needed.
Use this config when the target's PCM driver is buffered and sufficient
latency exists to perform safely the volume scaling.
Simulated targets that are double-buffered when made as native targets
remain so in the sim in order to run the same code.

This dir is suitable for stuff that doesn't fit the target tree, e.g. because
it also builds on hosted or otherwise. It also has a generic subfolder for
fallback C implementations so that not all archs need to provide asm files.
SOURCES should only contain "foo.c" where foo.c includes the specific
<arch>/foo.c files from the subdirs using the preprocessor. This way automatic
selection of asm versions or generic C verion is possible.
For the start, the thread support files are moved, since ASM threads can
be used on hosted platforms as well. Since core_sleep() remains platform
specific it's moved to the corresponding system.h headers.
