Hi,
This patchset is a revised version of my former RFC.
[alsa-devel] [PATCH RFC 00/21] ALSA: pcm: add tracepoints for PCM params operation http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2017-May/120548.html
Unlike SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE, returned data from invocation of ioctl(2) with SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS includes single value for below parameters:
* SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_ACCESS * SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_FORMAT * SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_SUBFORMAT * SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_CHANNELS * SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_RATE * SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_PERIOD_TIME * SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_BUFFER_SIZE * SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_TICK_TIME
This is an additional selection process of hardware parameters in service routine of the command.
This patchset adds tracepoint events to probe the selection process so that developers can realize final set of parameters by tracing data.
Below is a sample. The first three entries are final applications of constraint rules. The rest is newly added by this patchset.
