I searched on Google and found in the old alsa-devel archives the anouncement of this option to enable/disable detecting Active Sensing (0xfe) bytes with the amidi utility. But not only 0xfe (Active Sensing) should be blocked by default, also other Midi System Realtime messages. In other SysEx dump utilities that I know there is a simialr option called something like "rt-filter" or "realtime-filter". [...] I have attached my patch.
Thank you for this improvement. However, the name of the option ("--active-sensing") is no longer correct, and the man page must be updated, too.
Also, patches need a Signed-off-by line to indicate that the submitter accepts the DCO; see http://elinux.org/Developer_Certificate_Of_Origin.
