Hi Takashi,
- there seems to be a build failure with current
alsa-driver-unstable-snapshot [1] :
...as alsa-kernel/soc/Makefile references a mxs/ directory, but this directory is not present in the soc/ directory.
Just forgot to update after merging sound git tree. Such a new build-stub has to be added manually. Fixed now.
Thanks!
- it seems like the .bz2 version of alsa-driver-snapshot has
disappeared, is this intentional?
tar.bz2 file is created on kernel.org server from tar.gz files automatically. So when I upload a new tar.gz file, I delete tar.bz2 file beforehand. You seem to have looked at the directory just between my upload and the rebuild of tar.bz2 by the server.
The same is true for alsa-driver-snapshot.tar.bz2, too, BTW.
Hmm, but the alsa-driver-snapshot.tar.bz2 seems still missing? Only alsa-driver-unstable-snapshot.tar.bz2 is present.
- Could you explain the difference between alsa-driver-snapshot and
alsa-driver-unstable-snapshot, and how the alsa-kernel.git, alsa-driver.git and sound-2.6.git come together to form the two different tarballs?
alsa-driver-unstable-snapshot is created from a combination of sound-unstable-2.6.git and alsa-driver-build-unstable.git trees, while alsa-driver-snapshot is from a combination of sound-2.6.git and alsa-driver-build.git trees. The commit ids of these trees are found in alsa-driver*/HEAD and alsa-driver*/alsa-kernel/HEAD files.
Okay, thanks for the explanation. This means that sound-2.6.git and alsa-driver-build.git are trees to remember unless told otherwise. Hopefully, the next time it breaks I hopefully will be able to also provide a patch against alsa-driver-build.git :-)
Btw, I've just got accepted by my manager(s) to go to Linuxcon and the audio BoF, so see you in Prague! I'll be there the full week.
