Hi all,
if snd_pcm_update_avail() gets called on a PCM device in non-blocking mode when no data is availabe jet, what is the expected return value? -0 -EAGAIN -either is valid
I am asking this question because pulseaudio expect to receive 0, but the the bluetooth headset pcm transfer callback returns EAGAIN, so I want to find out against whoms I should open a bug :)
0.
-EAGAIN should be returned only for R/W operations but not for buffer position routines. They should return always immediatelly with useable value (thus EAGAIN does not make sense).
