Current SOF implementation limits period and buffer sizes to multiples of period_min. Period_min is defined in topology, but is in practise set to align with the SOF DSP timer tick (typically 1ms).
While this approach helps user-space to avoid period sizes, which are not aligned to the DSP timer tick, it causes problems to applications which want to align data processing size to that of ALSA period size. One example is JACK audio server, which limits period sizes to power of two values.

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.
You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.
If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced.
Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail.
Thanks, Mark
