This series of patch is based on my previous series below: http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2013-December/070424.ht...
This series of patch add a new driver, snd-oxfw, for OXFW970/971 based devices. These chipsets are already supported by snd-firewire-speakers but this new driver aim to support recording equipment.
Current supported devices: * Behringer F-Control Audio 202 * Mackie Onyx-i series (former model) * Mackie Onyx Satellite
Devices possible to be supported if identifying IDs: * Mackie, d.2 pro * Mackie, d.4 pro * Mackie, U.420 * Mackie, U.420d * Mackie, Tapco Link.Firewire
I worked with Behringer F-Control Audio 202. So I want someone to test with the other devices, especially about some quirks.
Clemens, would you gime me your opinions about issues below? And if you know something about this chipset, would you share the information?
1.snd-firewire-speakers and snd-oxfw With this series of patches, ALSA has two drivers for the same chipsets. Merging these two drivers is a bit difficult because: - snd-firewire-speakers has control interface but snd-oxfw don't - snd-firewire-speakers don't support in-stream but snd-oxfw supports
2.currently snd-oxfw works with streams in SYT-Match Due to invalid sequence of 'presentation timestamp' in transmitted packets. In detail, please see 4th patch.
3.assumption of channnel formation Some commands may not be implemented. In detail, please see 3rd patch.
4.don't check source of clock All of supported devices (including can be) don't have the functionality to switch source of clock. So I want to omit this.
For issue 3 and 4, Descriptor mechanism in 'Enhancements to the AV/C General Specification 3.0 Version 1.1' may be a best solution but it costs much to implement against the number of available devices. I want to avoid this huge mechanism if possible.
Regards
Takashi Sakamoto
