This updates the copyright header to all be the same, which is
pretty much an update of where to mail request for a copy of the GPL
and the years of the MPD project. This also puts all committers under
'The Music Player Project' umbrella. These entries should go
individually in the AUTHORS file, for consistancy.

Use GLib locking (GMutex, GCond) instead of pthread because GLib is
more portable, e.g. on mingw32.

"LOG_H" is a macro which is also used by ffmpeg/log.h. This is
ffmpeg's fault, because short macros should be reserved for
applications, but since it's always a good idea to choose prefixed
macro names, even for applications, we are going to do that in MPD.

"bool" should be used in C99 programs for boolean values.

When there are standardized headers, use these instead of the bloated
os_compat.h.

Typedefs shouldn't be used, use the bare struct names instead.

There was a known deadlocking bug in the notify library: when the
other thread set notify->pending after the according check in
notify_wait(), the latter thread was deadlocked. Resolve this by
synchronizing all accesses to notify->pending with the notify object's
mutex. Since notify_signal_sync() was never used, we can remove it.
As a consequence, we don't need notify_enter() and notify_leave()
anymore; eliminate them, too.

With the macro NOTIFY_INITIALIZER, you can statically initialize a
notify object.

Destroy the mutex when it is not used anymore.

When a mutex cannot be created, there must be something very wrong.
Induce panic and abort MPD in this case.

"struct notify" is the same as the "Notify" typedef. It can be
forward-declared and has a lower case name.

This patch rewrites notify.c to use the pthread API, namely
pthread_mutex and pthread_cond. This is a lot cheaper and easier than
the pipe() hack.

Use "notify" as a prefix rather than suffix.

Don't bother initializing the junk buffer, we really don't care.
The array was also unnecessary and ugly.
Also, avoid returning the byte count we read/wrote since it
unnecessarily exposes internal details of the implementation to
the callers.

* move set_nonblock{,ing}() into utils.c since we use it
elsewhere, too
* add proper error checking to set_nonblocking()
* use os_compat.h instead of individually #includ-ing system headers

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%.
