Mr. Kysela,
I have some patches to aplay to make it more useful for audio surveillance. I have submitted the patches to the devel mailing list for comment here: http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2010-January/024278.html.
I have received no negative comments, so I would like to propose these patches for inclusion in mainline. What is the procedure for submitting patches for alsa-util?
Could you, please, a bit clean up your patch?
There are a lot of "if (pidfile_written) remove (pidfile_name)" lines. It would be better to create another function like prg_exit() and add this code there.
Many C expressions are not splitted to more lines: "if (max_file_size && (rest > max_file_size)) rest = max_file_size;"
Check all conditions. Use && and || operators instead bit-like AND (&) and OR (|). Like "if (filecount | use_strftime) {" etc.
I would also appreciate, if you can split '--process-id-file' code changes and rest of implementation to two standalone patches for more easier review. Also, your patch contains some "space/tab replacements" - it might be moved to another patch too.
Thanks, Jaroslav
Thank you, Jaroslav. I will make those changes and re-submit. John Sauter (John_Sauter@systemeyescomputerstore.com)
