I am testing out my alsa driver for various period and buffer sizes, at some configurations it doesn't work so arises this very basic question.

Is every sound card/hardware supposed to work at all the period sizes?

No. The driver is supposed to add constraints that describe the capabilities of the hardware/driver.

What are the valid period/buffer sizes supported by your driver?
