The audio miniconference is next Tuesday, starting at 9am in Sweeney CDE at the Santa Fe Convention Center.
Currently the set of topics we have on the wiki and from e-mail for discussion is:
- mmap/no IRQ mode - Time stamp reporting (both current APIs and addition of ability to push down PCM sync) - USB audio power and latency performance - Standardizing HDMI / DP interface - SoundWire support - Tracepoints for PCM parameter support - Low latency audio - Propagating digital configuration through the DAPM graph - Userspace and configuration integration (how will topology etc get integrated in OSes) - Move of ASoC clocking into the clock API - HDA/ASoC integration - UCM scaling, does it scale well…? - How to improve upstreaming vendor drivers? - Stable / LTS kernel maintenance - Para Virtualized audio driver support - Userspace drivers (for IEEE 1394 and other things) - Dropping the DICE driver - Media Controller API integration - Is there anything new here or should we just drop this entirely?
which is quite a list but some of those should be fairly simple to discuss so hopefully fairly quick. I've made some effort to sort this into a rough order but it's very much a first pass so suggestions for changes are welcome. Similarly are there are other things people think we should discuss?
There's also some discussion of incoporating the kernel wide topic of inter-device dependenices into the audio miniconference since this affects audio (especially ASoC) quite a bit as well as several other subsystems, that is likely to be just after a break or first thing in the morning in order to allow others who aren't interested in audio specifically to join (and hopefully if this happens we can convince them to get involved in working on audio!).
I look forward to seeing many of you in Santa Fe next week!
