Oh, nevermind about the dyndbg, a quick search shows it's a kernel module option (modprobe.d) for my case: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.15/admin-guide/dynamic-debug-howto.html

That sounds like a good test. I'm building it with the patch you posted earlier today, except pertaining to my Roland Boutique D-05 ID. It will take a while before I have the result, though. Also, that "snd_usb_audio.dyndbg=+p" is just a kernel boot (not build) option, correct?: I hope so, or I'll have to start the build over yet again. ;)

Hi Geraldo - I had the same thought and I have tried enabling playback feedback while turning off capture feedback without my endpoint patch. It doesn't work - at least not on the GT-1. Playback/capture fails to start.
Speaking of testing, if you (or anyone else following this discussion) have one of these Roland/BOSS devices, it would be great if you could try testing with playback feedback enabled and my endpoint.c workaround.

Thanks, Mike, one thing I can tell you right off the bat is that if you turn implicit feedback sync on for both endpoints at the same time like
you
mentioned, without your workaround inside endpoint.c, they most likely
will
stall because they would both be waiting for each other to start.
Have you tried engaging the generic implicit feedback sync just for the playback, thereby commenting out the capture implicit feedback entries,
and
re-enabling snd_usb_endpoint_implicit_feedback_sink(ep) inside
endpoint.c?
Does playback still fail to start?
If you choose to perform this simple test please share with us the
test's
dyndbg logs right from the moment you turn on the device, not just after you start jackd.
Sorry for the endless do-this, do-that. Such is the pace of
teledebugging

Hi Geraldo - I don't have that patch applied, but it shouldn't make
any
behavioral difference - it just seems to be simplifying the code.
Point taken.
The issue is that the BOSS GT-1 *does* need implicit feedback on playback to avoid clock timing issues, and the current behavior is disabling that feedback.
Mike, would you mind posting some dyndbg logs for both the stock behaviour and your endpoint.c/generic quirk modified behaviour?
Just add snd_usb_audio.dyndbg=+p to your kernel options and please
share
the logs.
Mike
