Hello,
As per discussion, I know that ALSA driver does not have support for simultaneous playback and recording.
Huh? The full-duplex is of course supported. Your example shown in the thread doesn't indicate the multi playbacks or so.
We are using AD1981B codec, so our hardware has a support for simultaneous playback and recording of an audio.
I think you are confused.
So what exactly I have to do to get a support for simultaneous playback and recording? Shall I have to use sound server demons?
Is it really possible to do simultaneous playback and recording in linux?
Define your meaning of "simultaneous playback and recording" more exactly.
If it's about full-duplex, the answer is definitely yes. If it's multi-streams, the answer is yes, but there are choices, e.g. dmix/dsnoop plugin or a sound server.

Hello,
We using linux-2.6.27 on target board-AT91SAM9263EK. We are using ALSA library utilities (aplay & arecord). But by using these utilities we can’t do simultaneous playback and recording.
We performed following activity to come to this conclusion:
//At the background we were recording
#arecord –f cd record_test_file &
//At the forefront we were playing pre-recorded audio file
#aplay –f cd pre_recorded_file
Our observation is that, recording stops when start playing file.
In the API side, the above should work fine. It must be the driver that doesn't work with full-duplex.
