Reorganization
- Separated iBasso devices from PLATFORM_ANDROID. These are now standlone
hosted targets. Most device specific code is in the
firmware/target/hosted/ibasso directory.
- No dependency on Android SDK, only the Android NDK is needed.
32 bit Android NDK and Android API Level 16.
- Separate implementation for each device where feasible.
Code cleanup
- Rewrite of existing code, from simple reformat to complete reimplementation.
- New backlight interface, seperating backlight from touchscreen.
- Rewrite of device button handler, removing unneeded code and fixing memory
leaks.
- New Debug messages interface logging to Android adb logcat (DEBUGF, panicf,
logf).
- Rewrite of lcd device handler, removing unneeded code and fixing memory leaks.
- Rewrite of audiohw device handler/pcm interface, removing unneeded code and
fixing memory leaks, enabling 44.1/48kHz pthreaded playback.
- Rewrite of power and powermng, proper shutdown, using batterylog results
(see http://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/#/c/1047/).
- Rewrite of configure (Android NDK) and device specific config.
- Rewrite of the Android NDK specific Makefile.
Misc
- All plugins/games/demos activated.
- Update tinyalsa to latest from https://github.com/tinyalsa/tinyalsa.

Does not include http://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/#/c/1007/ due to new backlight
interface and new option for hold switch, touchscreen, physical button
interaction.
Rockbox needs the iBasso DX50/DX90 loader for startup, see
http://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/#/c/1099/
The loader expects Rockbox to be installed in /mnt/sdcard/.rockbox/. If
/mnt/sdcard/ is accessed as USB mass storage device, Rockbox will exit
gracefully and the loader will restart Rockbox on USB disconnect.
Tested on iBasso DX50.
Compiled (not tested) for iBasso DX90.
Compiled (not tested) for PLATFORM_ANDROID.

The port to for this two targets has been entirely developped by Ilia Sergachev (alias Il or xzcc). His source
can be found at https://bitbucket.org/isergachev/rockbox . The few necesary modifications for the DX90 port
was done by headwhacker form head-fi.org. Unfortunately i could not try out the final state of the DX90 port.
The port is hosted on android (without java) as standalone app. The official Firmware is required to run this port.
Ilia did modify the source files for the "android" target in the rockbox source to make the DX port work. The work I did
was to separate the code for DX50 (&DX90) from the android target.
On this Target Ilia used source from tinyalsa from AOSP. I did not touch that part of the code because I do not understand it.
What else I changed from Ilias sources besides the separation from the target "android":
* removed a dirty hack to keep backlight off
* changed value battery meter to voltage battery meter
* made all plugins compile (named target as "standalone") and added keymaps
* i added the graphics for the manual but did not do anything else for the manual yet
* minor optimizations
known bugs:
* timers are slowed donw when playback is active (tinyalsa related?)
* some minor bugs
Things to do:
* The main prolem will be how to install the app correctly. A guy called DOC2008 added a CWM (by androtab.info) to the
official firmware and Ilia made a CWM installation script and a dualboot selector (rbutils/ibassoboot, build with
ndk-build). We will have to find a way to install rockbox in a proper way without breaking any copyrights.
Maybe ADB is an option but it is not enable with OF by default. Patching the OF is probably the way to go.
* All the wiki and manual
to build:
needed: android ndk installed, android sdk installed with additional build-tools 19.1.0 installed
./tools/configure
select iBasso DX50 or iBasso DX90
make -j apk
the content of rockbox.zip/.rockbox needs to be copied to /system/rockbox/app_rockbox/rockbox/ (rockbox app not needed)
the content of libs/armeabi to /system/rockbox/lib/ (rockbox app needed)
The boot selector is needed as /system/bin/MangoPlayer and the iBasso app as /system/bin/MangoPlayer_original. There
is also the "vold" file. The one from OF does not work with DX50 rockbox (DX90 works!?), the one from Ilia is necessary.
Until we have found a proper way to install it, it can only be installed following the instructions of Ilia on his
bitbucket page, using the CWM-OF and his installation script package.

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.

* SOUND_x enum can be generated by audiohw_settings.h along with settings
entries and sound_val2phys.
* VOLUME_MIN and VOLUME_MAX are no longer necessary within sound.c. If
you need them, they are for target-defined purposes.
* Fix up SDL volume implementation in sdl.c. Move sim volume calculation
code to pcm-sdl.c.
* Min trigger tresholds were based upon VOLUME_MIN for some reason.
These setting have nothing to do with playback volume. Since it is no
longer present, set these at -89dB which is the minimum peak meter
sensitivity setting.
* Fix an oversight in wm8758.c. I forgot to add the dB->register
conversion to audiohw_set_volume.

This is going right in since it's long overdue. If anything is goofed,
drop me a line or just tweak it yourself if you know what's wrong. :-)
Make HW/SW codec interface more uniform when emulating HW functionality
on SWCODEC for functions such as "audiohw_set_pitch". The firmware-to-
DSP plumbing is in firmware/drivers/audiohw-swcodec.c. "sound_XXX"
APIs are all in sound.c with none in DSP code any longer.
Reduce number of settings definitions needed by each codec by providing
defaults for common ones like balance, channels and SW tone controls.
Remove need for separate SIM code and tables and add virtual codec header
for hosted targets.
