Find a file
Michael Sevakis a931c76b3a Do some debug and preparatory work for ramcache and playlist
The file system rework introduced incompatibility between dircache
and the tagcache ramcache and playlist dircache path caching. This
update makes changes to filesystem code to reintegrate all that.

It also fixes a couple bugs that were found when vetting all the
code. The filestream cache was being reset without regard to
the stream even if it was shared in write mode (made work of
.playlist_control). Better handling of unmounting gives files a
better go at force-closing them without risk to disk integrity.

Did some miscellaneous pedantic changes. Improved efficiency of
testing a file's existence (a little) since the path parser will
be shared between file code and parsing for the sake of finding
dircache references, not duplicated as before.

This commit doesn't reenable said items just for the sake of
keeping changes separate and related.

Plan for the next is to enable dircache again for the playlists
(easy peasy) and reenable tagcache ramcache but *without* the
dircache path caching because it's rather substantial to change
in itself. The ramcache will still function without dircache.

Build Your Own Rockbox

1. Clone 'rockbox' from git (or extract a downloaded archive).

   $ git clone git://git.rockbox.org/rockbox

     or

   $ tar xjf rockbox.tar.bz2

2. Create a build directory, preferably in the same directory as the firmware/
   and apps/ directories. This is where all generated files will be written.

   $ cd rockbox
   $ mkdir build
   $ cd build

3. Make sure you have sh/arm/m68k-elf-gcc and siblings in the PATH. Make sure
   that you have 'perl' in your PATH too. Your gcc cross compiler needs to be
   a particular version depending on what player you are compiling for. These
   can be acquired with the rockboxdev.sh script in the /tools/ folder of the
   source, or will have been included if you've installed one of the
   toolchains or development environments provided at http://www.rockbox.org/

   $ which sh-elf-gcc
   $ which perl

4. In your build directory, run the 'tools/configure' script and enter what
   target you want to build for and if you want a debug version or not (and a
   few more questions). It'll prompt you. The debug version is for making a
   gdb version out of it. It is only useful if you run gdb towards your target
   Archos.

   $ ../tools/configure

5. *ploink*. Now you have got a Makefile generated for you.

6. Run 'make' and soon the necessary pieces from the firmware and the apps
   directories have been compiled, linked and scrambled for you.

   $ make
   $ make zip

7. unzip the rockbox.zip on your music player, reboot it and
   *smile*.

If you want to build for more than one target, just create several build
directories and create a setup for each target:

   $ mkdir build-fmrecorder
   $ cd build-fmrecorder
   $ ../tools/configure

   $ mkdir build-player
   $ cd build-player
   $ ../tools/configure
