I'd be very thankful for comments, especially from you Takashi and Jaroslav since it contains quite some details about the "safe" subset of the ALSA API!
I'm thankful for all kinds of input!
I'm very thankful that you've made this positive contribution. It is sorely needed, and I hope it will spur greater collaboration.
how finalized is the "safe ALSA subset" to mention it in the ALSA docs? I am an embedded developer new to ALSA and am still a bit bewildered on best-practices.
Dunno. This guide is just something I wrote up as someone who knows the ALSA API quite well I think. However, I am mostly just a developer *using* the API, not a developer *writing* the API.
If you want some reliable, "official" opinions, then wait until Takashi and Jaroslav commented on this. They are certainly the ones whose endorsing or not-endorsing of this guide matters the most.
