How about the rest of my work for ALSA Dice driver to Linux 4.5?
[alsa-devel] [RFC][PATCH 00/10 v2] ALSA: dice: stabiliza packet streaming http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2015-December/101897.ht...
It takes almost one month since I posted the RFCv2. We already had a discussion about the patchset in RFCv1 and in my opinion there's no thorough disagreement. If possible, I'd like to merge it in the merge window for Linux 4.5. If we go for it, I'll post them in this night.
Well, RFC is RFC and not for merging. If it's meant for merging, let's poke relevant people whether it's OK.
Indeed for merging process.
However, in my opinion, RFC is one of ways to show directions for future works and establish _loose_ agreement among active developers. In terms of it, I think it's time to put the patchset to the review process for merging.
But it seems to be a bit late for 4.5. I'll postpone them to next developing cycle for 4.6.
For 4.5, I'll finish all of my work, and I currently plan for 4.6: * Limit PCM substreams to current sampling transfer frequency for Dice driver * Replace tasklet with workqueue for scs1x functionality of OXFW driver. * Some works in userspace, mainly libhinawa and hinawa-utils * Development of firewire-transceiver module for testing streaming engine of firewire-lib.
