This patch removes the PCM xfer_align parameter. It's still present and won't break the kernel ABI.
Note that this patch won't be applied cleanly to HG, as it's generated in the middle of my patch stack (to fix snd_pcm_lib_write1 blocking bug).
Are you sure that this patch does not change compatibility with older applications? Otherwise, ACK.
The xfer_align doesn't actually change the behavior that is exposed to the outside. It's rather the driver internal, and the implementation doesn't influence on the transfer behavior in practice.
Also, alsa-lib API should be updated to respect this (and time tick) changes.
Yes. That's pending on my local tree.
Also I'll increase PCM pversion too, just to be sure.
