Hi Takashi,
I am working on stopping alsa streams of audio USB gadget when USB host stops capture/playback/USB cable unplugged.
For capture I used code from AK4114 SPDIF receiver https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/sound/i2c/other/ak4114.c#L590:
static void stop_substream(struct uac_rtd_params *prm) { unsigned long _flags; struct snd_pcm_substream *substream;
substream = prm->ss; if (substream) { snd_pcm_stream_lock_irqsave(substream, _flags); if (snd_pcm_running(substream)) // TODO - correct handling for playback substream? snd_pcm_stop(substream, SNDRV_PCM_STATE_DRAINING); snd_pcm_stream_unlock_irqrestore(substream, _flags); } }
For setup I found calling snd_pcm_stop(substream, SNDRV_PCM_STATE_SETUP) (https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/staging/vc04_services...)
Or for both capture and playback using SNDRV_PCM_STATE_DISCONNECTED (https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/sound/core/pcm.c#L1103).
Or perhaps using snd_pcm_dev_disconnect(dev) or snd_pcm_drop(substream)?
Please what is the recommended way?
Please can I ask for expert view on this issue? E.g. in SoX stopping the stream with SNDRV_PCM_STATE_SETUP/SNDRV_PCM_STATE_DRAINING does not stop the application, while with SNDRV_PCM_STATE_DISCONNECTED SoX exits with non-recoverable status. I am considering implementing both methods and letting users choose their suitable snd_pcm_stop operation (none (default)/SETUP-DRAINING/DISCONNECTED) for the two events (host playback/capture stop, cable disconnection) with a configfs param. Would this make sense?
The disconnection state is unrecoverable. It's expected that the device will be freed and cannot be reused.
If you expect to keep the PCM device, we should probably introduce a new function which puts the device to the SNDRV_PCM_STATE_OPEN state. In this state, all I/O routines will return -EBADFD for the applications, so they should close or re-initialize the PCM device completely.
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/sound/core/pcm_native.c#L794
The fact is that after closing the USB host can re-open the device with different samplerate (and perhaps later on with different channels count/sample size). That would hint at the need to re-initialize the gadget side before opening anyway.
As of keeping the device - it's likely some use cases would prefer keeping the device, to minimize the operations needed to react to the host-side playback/capture start.
A function you describe would make sense for this. IMO from the gadget POW there is no difference between the host stopping playback/capture and cable disconnection, in both cases the data stream is stopped and next stream can have entirely different parameters. Maybe the gadget configfs parameter could only toggle between no action (i.e. current situation) and the new alsa function stopping the stream.
Jaroslav, please can you draft such a function? Perhaps both changes could make it to 5.17.
Thanks a lot,
Pavel.
