[alsa-devel] soc-cache problem
by Cliff Cai 15 Jan '10

15 Jan '10

Hi all, Nowadays, soc tries to set up standard I/O functions with same addr_bits and data_bits for a codec. My problem is some codec might have registers with different data length.i.e.ADAU1761, Most of its registers are 8 bits long except PLL register,which is a 8 bytes long one.In order to set/read PLL , a block of data(8 bytes) needs to be transfer to/from the PLL register at a time. So, if soc-cache needs to consider this kind of case, or just keep it in local driver? Thanks Cliff

Attached is a patch against current sound-2.6 master HEAD that: * adds Christian's SSID to the relevant quirk table, * prefers BIOS autoprobing for existing Sony VAIO models matching 0x104d90xx. The second change was made to ease backing out the change in case of regressions. Best, -Dan

As I mentioned in the previous followup, if your device is a USB-audio, the patch doesn't help because it's for devices with buffers using dma_alloc_coherent(). For USB-audio, it uses vmalloc for an intermediate buffer. Maybe this should be changed to dma_*() stuff for such architectures. Nevertheless, I don't know whether the crash is related with the audio part... Takashi

ALSA Team, Sorry to bother you with this again. I haven't yet received confirmation (or rejection) from the moderator, and just wondering if there's anything else I can/should do. Best regards & Happy New Year, Maher. ________________________________ From: Maher Fahmi Sent: Friday, December 04, 2009 1:41 PM To: 'alsa-devel(a)alsa-project.org' Subject: hda_intel.c patch requested for Teradici Alsa Team, Enclosed is a patch to the hda_intel.c file from the alsa-driver-1.0.21 package. I tried to submit this using git, but ran into some problems that exceed my limited understanding of Linux. I hope this will suffice for you.

[alsa-devel] snd_pcm_avail_update returns 0
by Singaravelan Nallasellan 14 Jan '10

14 Jan '10

Hi, Our audio driver uses the indirect PCM data transfer mechanism to transfer the buffer pointers and the size of the buffer to the Audio engine which DMAs the PCM data to the sound card. The driver uses the .ack callback to receive the buffer pointer and the size. It also sends it to the audio engine. We are facing a problem when we play long wav file using our driver. The application has written the PCM data and the ring buffer is full. snd_pcm_avail_update returns 0 sporadically. But the .ack callback was not called. The playback is stuck. It is not progressing. I have tried with pulseaudio (0.9.15) and with my own player. Both gives the same result. I would appreciate if somebody could provide some pointer to identify the cause of this issue. Let me know if anybody needs more info. Thanks Sing

AFAIK , alsa-lib use the driver name to find the name of corresponding conf file from /usr/share/alsa/cards/aliases.conf In your case , H-DSP.conf does not exist and there is no aliases in /usr/share/alsa/cards/aliases.conf You have to ask Takashi or Jaroslav to fix this issue for your card open("/usr/share/alsa/cards/aliases.conf", O_RDONLY) = 3 access("/usr/share/alsa/cards/H-DSP.conf", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/dev/snd/controlC1", O_RDONLY) = 3 close(3) = 0 write(2, "ALSA lib confmisc.c:1286:(snd_fu"..., 42ALSA lib confmisc.c:1286:(snd_func_refer) ) = 42 write(2, "Unable to find definition 'cards"..., 58Unable to find definition 'cards.H-DSP.pcm.front.0:CARD=0') = 58 write(2, "\n", 1 2009/11/7 Lars Zobbe <fedesensfar(a)gmail.com> > It is a clean install. > lars@lars-desktop:~$ lsb_release -a && uname -a > No LSB modules are available. > Distributor ID: Ubuntu > Description: Ubuntu 9.10 > Release: 9.10 > Codename: karmic > Linux lars-desktop 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:05:01 UTC > 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux > > It didn't work with pulseaudio in any previos version (of ubuntu or any > other distro I've tried) either. > And the standard answer from people "out there" is "forget about pulse it > doesn't work with the HDSP" f.x. this guy > http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7578331&postcount=10 > And that's why I contacted pulseaudio developers first when I found out the > it was because snd_hdsp didn't load with the preferred udev but only with > module-detect (se my first post).

>mmap is supported by the Samsung drivers. Thanks for this information which i overlooked. >This looks like the dmix data rates are getting out of sync with what >the hardware is doing. Enabling CONFIG_SND_PCM_XRUN_DEBUG will produce >more diagnostic information from the driver side I got the problem and after doing the changes DMIX plugin is working very fine. As you know XRUN was happening and this happening in snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr_post function. This happened because stop_threshold is increased suddenly(Is it done by dmix? If yes then why ?) ?????? In normal condtions this would have been fine but in my code i was multiplying it by some amount causing it to wrap around(stop_threshold=0 );Causing XRUN.So i just removed this multiplying factor. One more Rate conversion query: ./alsa_aplay -v -D"plug:'dmix:RATE=44100'" bond.wav Playing WAVE 'bond.wav' : Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 11025 Hz, Mono Plug PCM: Rate conversion PCM (44100, sformat=U8) As you can see bond.wav is sampled at 11025k but when i am playing with Plug PCM there is some noise in the song why????Is rate conversion algoritm not able to resample it properly? If i play with ./alsa_aplay -v -D"plug:'dmix:RATE=11025'" bond.wav then no noise.Probably because no resampling happening? Mark Brown Heartfelt Thanks for your time.

Hello there, I just ran the sourceforge tool cppcheck over the source code of the Linux kernel 2.6.32.3 It said [./sound/soc/s3c24xx/s3c24xx-pcm.c:128]: (error) Possible null pointer dereference: substream - otherwise it is redundant to check if substream is null at line 130 I checked the source code and I agree with the compiler. Suggest code rework. Regards David Binderman _________________________________________________________________ Do you have a story that started on Hotmail?
