I have a customer who reports that when his OSS application makes several write() followed by SNDCTL_DSP_GETOSPACE, the returned value is not decreasing, which implies that the write() commands are not going through.
When write() doesn't return an error, it succeeded.
The GETOSPACE return value does not decrease as long as the written data has not yet filled an entire fragment. (This behaviour can be changed with the partial-frag option; see linux/Documentation/sound/alsa/OSS-Emulation.txt).
