Thanks Takashi. 
 
If the lib does not provide the API to read the device capabilitiess, is there a way for applications to directly read it from the Alsa kernel driver ?

The min / max can be obtained via *_get_rate_min() and *_get_rate_max(),
at least.  The other detailed information can't be get except for testing
the explicit value via *_test_rate(), so far.
