[alsa-devel] POSIX clocks and ALSA

Hello,

Some years ago there was some talk about UST support in Linux, but the support never happened. With the hrtimers patch (and I'm not quite sure if even earlier?) CLOCK_MONOTONIC would seem like a fairly good UST time source. What I'd like to see, is a selectable clock for ALSA timestamping, e.g. something like snd_sw_params_clock(..., clockid_t clk). Would this seem plausible? I don't know that much about ALSA internals, so, no idea whether different clocks on different pcms/whatever would quickly turn into an unmanageable mess.
