[alsa-devel] snd_pcm_avail_update() returning large values

Hi,

Occasionally, when using pulseaudio I see the following message:

snd_pcm_avail_update() returned a value that is exceptionally large.

This seems to be an issue with the ALSA driver itself. My question is how does snd_pcm_avail_update(), get updated? It uses hw buffer positions correct? Is there an example driver that implements snd_pcm_avail_update() correctly and updates buffer positions correctly?

Thanks Baek
