* Initial cut of fork() => pthreads() for decoder and playerEric Wong2008-04-1221-377/+212
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: 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: 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.

* send notify signal after SIGCONTMax Kellermann2008-03-261-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | When the decoder receives SIGCONT during waitNotify(), the kernel restarts the read() system call. This lets the decoder process block indefinitely, while the player process waits for it to react. This should probably be solved with a proper signal handler which aborts the read() system call, but for now, we just write to the pipe to make it wake up. git-svn-id: https://svn.musicpd.org/mpd/trunk@7216 09075e82-0dd4-0310-85a5-a0d7c8717e4f
* notify the decoder instead of polling 100hzMax Kellermann2008-03-266-1/+125
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the decoder process is faster than the player process, all decodedd buffers are full at some point in time. The decoder has to wait for buffers to become free (finished playing). It used to do this by polling the buffer status 100 times a second. This generates a lot of unnecessary CPU wakeups. This patch adds a way for the player process to notify the decoder process that it may continue its work. We could use pthread_cond for that, unfortunately inter-process mutexes/conds are not supported by some kernels (Linux), so we cannot use this light-weight method until mpd moves to using threads instead of processes. The other method would be semaphores, which historically are global resources with a unique name; this historic API is cumbersome, and I wanted to avoid it. I came up with a quite naive solution for now: I create an anonymous pipe with pipe(), and the decoder process reads on that pipe. Until the player process sends data on it as a signal, the decoder process blocks. This can be optimized in a number of ways: - if the decoder process is still working (instead of waiting for buffers), we could save the write() system call, since there is nobody waiting for the notification. [ew: I tried this using a counter in shared memory, didn't help] - the pipe buffer will be full at some point, when the decoder thread is too slow. For this reason, the writer side of the pipe is non-blocking, and mpd can ignore the resulting EWOULDBLOCK. - since we have shared memory, we could check whether somebody is actually waiting without a context switch, and we could just not write the notification byte. [ew: tried same method/result as first point above] - if there is already a notification in the pipe, we could also not write another one. [ew: tried same method/result as first/third points above] - the decoder will only consume 64 bytes at a time. If the pipe buffer is full, this will result in a lot of read() invocations. This does not hurt badly, but on a heavily loaded system, this might add a little bit more load. The preceding optimizations however are able eliminate the this. - finally, we should use another method for inter process notifications - maybe kill() or just make mpd use threads, finally. In spite of all these possibilities to optimize this code further, this pipe notification trick is faster than the 100 Hz poll. On my machine, it reduced the number of wakeups to less than 30%. git-svn-id: https://svn.musicpd.org/mpd/trunk@7215 09075e82-0dd4-0310-85a5-a0d7c8717e4f
* unsigned countersMax Kellermann2008-03-262-13/+13
| | | | | | | | Use unsigned variables for storing the count of items or for iteration variables. Since there can never be a negative number of items, it makes sense to use an unsigned data type here. This change is safe because the unsigned values are only used for adddressing array items. git-svn-id: https://svn.musicpd.org/mpd/trunk@7214 09075e82-0dd4-0310-85a5-a0d7c8717e4f
* don't repeat select()Max Kellermann2008-03-261-5/+2
| | | | | | | | The interfaces main loop repeats the select() (non-blocking) after an event was handled. I do not see any reason for that, since all events should be handled after the first select(). This double select() does nothing than consume more CPU cycles. git-svn-id: https://svn.musicpd.org/mpd/trunk@7213 09075e82-0dd4-0310-85a5-a0d7c8717e4f
* unlimited select() timeoutMax Kellermann2008-03-261-5/+3
| | | | | | | mpd sets a 1s select() timeout for no reason. This makes mpd wake up the CPU, consume some cycles just to see there is nothing to do. We can save that by specifying NULL instead of a timeout. git-svn-id: https://svn.musicpd.org/mpd/trunk@7212 09075e82-0dd4-0310-85a5-a0d7c8717e4f

| | | | | | | | | | | | Basically, I don't trust myself nor Max to not have bugs in our code when switching over to unsigned types, so I've added more assertions which will hopefully trip and force us to fix these bugs before somebody can exploit them :) Some cleanups for parameter parsing using strtol and error reporting to the user.
