[alsa-devel] asus xonar d1
by Lars Schotte 14 Apr '10

14 Apr '10

i finally got the asus xonar d1 and installed the latest kernel from the backports for debian lenny and the card doesnt work at all and has unbelievably less controls in the mixer, so my guess is that the driver is ok, but alsa can not operate it. i am keeping on trying. i am about to download fedora 13 beta to test it there, maybe it helps. while the download is runing i am continuing to try and look what could be the problem. -- ------------------- Lars Schotte @ romy

[alsa-devel] Laggy mixer with Xonar DX snd_virtuoso
by Flávio Martins 14 Apr '10

14 Apr '10

Hello Alsa team, I have a Xonar DX with a laggy volume control, you might have guessed already. Sound will interrupt if the volume change is big like from 100% to 50%, it will only skip a bit if the volume change is smaller. The interruptions/silence last more than 5 seconds easily. I can actually see the mixer slider going up and down on its own. I am seeking for your help and i'm using 1.0.22.1. Here goes the alsa-info.sh output, some weird things going on in dmesg http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=ee911fe73baa60aac51c62ff787ab8b8bd8565e8 Flávio Martins

[alsa-devel] alsa-lib pcm_share.c snd_pcm_share_open() bug ?
by Mathieu Desnoyers 13 Apr '10

13 Apr '10

Hi, I was looking at snd_pcm_share_open() in alsa-lib-1.0.22, and stumbled on the following line: pcm->monotonic = pcm->monotonic; what is that supposed to do ? There is clearly something wrong there. Thanks, Mathieu -- Mathieu Desnoyers Operating System Efficiency R&D Consultant EfficiOS Inc. http://www.efficios.com

[alsa-devel] [PATCH] Use thread-safe locale functions
by Rémi Denis-Courmont 13 Apr '10

13 Apr '10

setlocale() is not thread-safe. It can actually trigger a crash if another thread uses locale informations at the same time in the process. Library code should use POSIX newlocale/duplocale/uselocale/freelocale instead. Those functions only change the locale data for the calling thread. --- src/conf.c | 16 +++++++--------- 1 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/conf.c b/src/conf.c index 570c90f..ce252ab 100644 --- a/src/conf.c +++ b/src/conf.c @@ -499,22 +499,20 @@ static int safe_strtod(const char *str, double *val) { char *end; double v; - char *saved_locale; - char locstr[64]; /* enough? */ + locale_t saved_locale, c_locale; int err; if (!*str) return -EINVAL; - saved_locale = setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, NULL); - if (saved_locale) { - snprintf(locstr, sizeof(locstr), "%s", saved_locale); - setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, "C"); - } + c_locale = newlocale(LC_NUMERIC_MASK, "C", 0); + saved_locale = uselocale(c_locale); errno = 0; v = strtod(str, &end); err = -errno; - if (saved_locale) - setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, locstr); + if (c_locale != (locale_t)0) { + uselocale(saved_locale); + freelocale(c_locale); + } if (err) return err; if (*end) -- 1.7.0.4

The following changes since commit fb48e3c6a4d8888aff61fbf567aadac7d206e973: Graham Gower (1): ASoC: Fix passing platform_data to ac97 bus users and fix a leak are available in the git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound-2.6.git for-2.6.34 This is rather large for a stable update due to the inclusion of Daniel's backported fix for corruption of DMA data due to use of dma_data by both capture and playback streams (which is large but straightforward) and my updates for WM8994, particularly DC servo handling. The WM8994 updates mostly affect that part (which was only introduced in 2.6.34) and are strongly recommended for all users, individually they are all relatively straightforward.
