Hi Takashi,
When doing multi-channel playback tests on IbexPeak, I found that the following patch makes the playback enter an infinite loop, repeatedly playing a range of ~0.5s audio content. (Seems that some buffer pointer can never advance.)
Could you set 1 to /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/xrun_debug and give the messages? Also, please show /proc/.../pcm0p/sub0/hw_params, too.
The change affects only the code path for the problematic hardware that reports wrong DMA position. So, if this change regresses, it means that the device has been already problematic from the beginning...
I caught some messages:
Is this with the patched (as is on sound git tree) kernel?
Yes, it's unmodified latest git tree.
What if changing from #if 1 to #if 0?
This makes 8-channel playback work again.
OK, then could you apply the patch below, and do "echo 9 > /proc/../xrun_debug", then gather the messages with both #if 1 and #if 0? This will record the each snd_pcm_period_elpased() so beware that you may get flood of messages.
thanks,
Takashi
