Re: [alsa-devel] [PATCH 1/2] pcm_file: do not disrupt playback on output file write fail

On 2019-06-07 14:23, Adam Miartus wrote:

previously playback could be interrupted by snd_pcm_file_add_frames: assert(file->wbuf_used_bytes < file->wbuf_size_bytes)

in case snd_pcm_file_write_bytes fails to write full amount of bytes to file, variable wbuf_used_bytes would not be fully decremented by requested amount of bytes function was called with

for the assert to trigger, multiple write fails need to happen, so that wbuf_used_bytes overflows wbuf_size_bytes,

this patch will allow application to report error code to api user who might have an idea how to recover, before assert is triggered, also reporting error along with the print out message might give user a better idea of what is going on, where previously reason for mentioned assert was not immediately clear

write_wav_header already dumps "Write error" on failure. Both messages are quite similar. Your message dumps filename though, so it's clearly more descriptive - consider updating write_wav_header SYSERR message all along while simplifying code here.

Hmm. For snd_pcm_file_write_bytes you've chosen a different form: newline + return. Code looks more cohesive if it's "formatted" in the same fashion.
