[alsa-devel] hdsp rpm support
by Roman Haefeli 25 Jan '13

25 Jan '13

Hi everyone I would like to know current state of the RME HDSP RPM support. There was a thread [1] in 2008 on this list about the issue and things looked promising back then. However, I'm still unable to upload the firmware with alsa-driver from git on my Ubuntu 11.04 (32bit) machine with a 2.6.38 kernel. I posted a detailed description of the issue on the alsa-user list here [2]. Is it supposed to work with Cardbus? If not, is there something I can do to help support it? Any hints appreciated.

[alsa-devel] sound: usb-audio: full capture/playback/spdif support for Digidesign Mbox 2
by Damien Zammit 23 Dec '12

23 Dec '12

Hi folks, I have put together full support for Digidesign Mbox 2, but it needs someone to help me merge it into alsa. I haven't seen the latest snd-usb-audio code since last year, it seems to have branched into multiple files. I have worked out how the Digidesign Mbox 2 needs to be configured, it supports SPDIF i/o simultaneously with analogue but can be toggled on and off by using different altsettings. Also the sample clock rate must be configured via a special method. Therefore I have provided for this in a device_setup parameter with 4 settings: 48Khz Spdif+analog = 0 44.1Khz Spdif+analog = 1 48Khz Analog only = 2 44.1Khz Analog only = 3 ###### audio /* Digidesign Mbox 2 workaround: * supports S24_3BE BIG ENDIAN in an unusual way */ if (chip->usb_id == USB_ID(0x0dba, 0x3000)) pcm_format = SNDRV_PCM_FORMAT_S24_3BE; static int mbox2_skip_setting_quirk(struct snd_usb_audio *chip, int iface, int altno); static int parse_audio_endpoints(struct snd_usb_audio *chip, int iface_no) { ..... ..... /* Digidesign Mbox 2: skip altsets incompatible with device_setup */ if (chip->usb_id == USB_ID(0x0dba, 0x3000) && mbox2_skip_setting_quirk(chip, iface_no, altno)) continue; ..... } #define MBOX2_SET_48K_SPDIF 0 #define MBOX2_SET_44K_SPDIF 1 #define MBOX2_SET_48K_ANALOG 2 #define MBOX2_SET_44K_ANALOG 3 static int mbox2_skip_setting_quirk(struct snd_usb_audio *chip, int iface, int altno) { u8 srate[3]; /* Reset ifaces 2-5 to 0 altsetting. */ usb_set_interface(chip->dev, iface, 0); if (device_setup[chip->index] == MBOX2_SET_48K_SPDIF || device_setup[chip->index] == MBOX2_SET_48K_ANALOG) { //setup 48k srate[0]=0x80; srate[1]=0xbb; srate[2]=0x00; /* Send the magic! */ snd_usb_ctl_msg(chip->dev, usb_sndctrlpipe(chip->dev, 0), 0x01, 0x22, 0x0100, 0x0085, &srate, 0x0003, 1000); snd_usb_ctl_msg(chip->dev, usb_sndctrlpipe(chip->dev, 0), 0x81, 0xa2, 0x0100, 0x0085, &srate, 0x0003, 1000); snd_usb_ctl_msg(chip->dev, usb_sndctrlpipe(chip->dev, 0), 0x81, 0xa2, 0x0100, 0x0086, &srate, 0x0003, 1000); snd_usb_ctl_msg(chip->dev, usb_sndctrlpipe(chip->dev, 0), 0x81, 0xa2, 0x0100, 0x0003, &srate, 0x0003, 1000); snd_printk(KERN_INFO "Digidesign Mbox 2: 24 Bit 48000Hz"); if (device_setup[chip->index] == MBOX2_SET_48K_SPDIF) { //setup spdif snd_printk(KERN_INFO ", SPDIF\n"); if (altno != 2) return 1; } else { //setup analog snd_printk(KERN_INFO ", ANALOGUE\n"); if (altno != 3) return 1; } } else { //setup 44k srate[0]=0x44; srate[1]=0xac; srate[2]=0x00; /* Send the magic! */ snd_usb_ctl_msg(chip->dev, usb_sndctrlpipe(chip->dev, 0), 0x01, 0x22, 0x0100, 0x0085, &srate, 0x0003, 1000); snd_usb_ctl_msg(chip->dev, usb_sndctrlpipe(chip->dev, 0), 0x81, 0xa2, 0x0100, 0x0085, &srate, 0x0003, 1000); snd_usb_ctl_msg(chip->dev, usb_sndctrlpipe(chip->dev, 0), 0x81, 0xa2, 0x0100, 0x0086, &srate, 0x0003, 1000); snd_usb_ctl_msg(chip->dev, usb_sndctrlpipe(chip->dev, 0), 0x81, 0xa2, 0x0100, 0x0003, &srate, 0x0003, 1000); snd_printk(KERN_INFO "Digidesign Mbox 2: 24 Bit 44100Hz"); if (device_setup[chip->index] == MBOX2_SET_44K_SPDIF || device_setup[chip->index] == MBOX2_SET_44K_ANALOG) { //setup spdif snd_printk(KERN_INFO ", SPDIF\n"); if (altno != 2) return 1; } else { //setup analog snd_printk(KERN_INFO ", ANALOGUE\n"); if (altno != 3) return 1; } } return 0; } #define MBOX2_FIRMWARE_SIZE 646 #define MBOX2_BOOT_LOADING 0x01 /* Hard coded into the device */ #define MBOX2_BOOT_READY 0x02 /* Hard coded into the device */ static int snd_usb_mbox2_boot_quirk(struct usb_device *dev) { struct usb_host_config *config = dev->actconfig; int err; u8 enablemagic[3]; u8 bootresponse; int fwsize; if ((fwsize = le16_to_cpu(get_cfg_desc(config)->wTotalLength)) == MBOX2_FIRMWARE_SIZE) { snd_printdd("Sending Digidesign Mbox 2 boot sequence...\n"); /* From USB Snoop, * * SetupPacket = RT RQ VHVL INDX SIZE * RT = 0xRT Request Type * RQ = 0xRQ Request * VHVL = 0xVLVH Value in reverse byte order * INDX = 0xDXIN Index in reverse byte order * SIZE = 0xZESI Size in reverse byte order * * Magic boot code setup packet: c0 85 01 00 00 00 12 00 * RQ RT VLVH DXIN ZESI * becomes 0x85, 0xc0, 0x0001, 0x0000, &RETURNDATA, 0x0012, TIMEOUT * for snd_usb_ctl_msg() */ mbox2_reboot: snd_usb_ctl_msg(dev, usb_rcvctrlpipe(dev, 0), 0x85, 0xc0, 0x0001, 0x0000, &bootresponse, 0x0012, 1000); if (bootresponse == MBOX2_BOOT_LOADING) { snd_printdd("device not ready, resending boot sequence...\n"); goto mbox2_reboot; } if (bootresponse == MBOX2_BOOT_READY) { snd_printdd("device initialised!\n"); err = usb_get_descriptor(dev, USB_DT_DEVICE, 0, &dev->descriptor, sizeof(dev->descriptor)); config = dev->actconfig; if (err < 0) snd_printdd("error usb_get_descriptor: %d\n", err); err = usb_reset_configuration(dev); if (err < 0) snd_printdd("error usb_reset_configuration: %d\n", err); snd_printdd("mbox2_boot: new boot length = %d\n", le16_to_cpu(get_cfg_desc(config)->wTotalLength)); /* Successful boot, (should reset all altsettings to 0 like windows does, but works without it) * but now we will try sending capture/playback enable magic * * 80 bb 00 = 24bit mode - S24_3BE * 44 ac 00 = 16bit mode?

[alsa-devel] HDSPM - Problems with SyncIn
by Andre Schramm 19 Oct '12

19 Oct '12

Hello, I did some tests with the SyncIn-Feature of the HDSPe cards. [root@localhost ~]# lspci |grep Mult 01:00.0 Multimedia audio controller: Xilinx Corporation RME Hammerfall DSP MADI (rev d2) 02:00.0 Multimedia audio controller: Xilinx Corporation RME Hammerfall DSP MADI (rev d2) The SyncOut of card 2:00 was plugged to the SyncIn of 1:00 and 1:00 was put to AutoSync-mode automatically upon boot.

[alsa-devel] [RFC PATCH] Inverted internal mic
by David Henningsson 25 Jun '12

25 Jun '12

Hi, One of the more common problems on laptop machines, is that the internal mic provides a stereo signal but with one channel phase inverted, or differential output. This means problems for applications recording two channels but later merging them into one, leaving them with zero or near-zero output. There are various ways we can work around this in both the kernel, alsa-lib and PulseAudio layers. It's a matter of picking the right one. I'm leaning towards trying to fix it in the kernel's codec drivers, because 1) we already have quirking infrastructure there 2) we already have some working quirks already in that layer 3) it would benefit other sound applications that use ALSA directly. The downside to that is really that we're silencing out one channel for everyone, leading to no application being able to use both channels, even if they would implement some kind of "auto-detect-and-reverse-one-channel" functionality. For the most part, this has been some Acer Aspire machines running Realtek ALC268 / ALC269 / ALC271X / ALC272X, and for two of these we have proc coefs we can set, but for the other two these proc coefs, if they exist, are unknown to us. Recently I came across a Conexant as well, and I decided to write a patch for it, that would take the approach that the internal mic is forced mono on the kcontrol, and make sure the right channel is always muted. The patch is verified by the reporter to fix this problem. It could use some perfection though - it would make sense to to the same to the internal mic boost as well, and the strcmp('Internal Mic') call could maybe be turned into something more elegant. But before going ahead with that, I'd like to hear your opinion on the matter, if you agree that this is a good approach to the problem?

Happy New Year! That being said, I've tested a kernel without Daniel's patch set. It doesn't work either. The error messages are only slightly different: Jan 1 11:52:31 weasel mtp-probe: checking bus 1, device 4: "/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.7/usb1/1-1" Jan 1 11:52:31 weasel mtp-probe: bus: 1, device: 4 was not an MTP device Jan 1 11:52:31 weasel kernel: [ 161.880773] usbcore: registered new interface driver snd-usb-audio Jan 1 11:52:34 weasel kernel: [ 164.284980] cannot submit datapipe for urb 0, error -28: not enough bandwidth So, It's not related to Daniel's rework. But nevertheless, something's broken...

I'm really sorry for taking so long - this is still an issue for me, but contrary to my expectations, I was not able to reboot this machine yet and it might take some more time (weeks...) before that's convenient. I will try the then-current kernel and for-next branch then. The output from the alsa-info.sh script is at: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=184928832b33b23c68d17460604b9a37af0fac4b -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis The goal of Computer Science is to build something that will last at least until we've finished building it.
