snd_pcm_status() does not update status->avail
Hi, I have a problem with status->avail not being updated when using multiple extplug plugins and softvol. I managed to get it to work with the following patch:
diff --git a/src/pcm/pcm_plugin.c b/src/pcm/pcm_plugin.c index ea60eb98..89e819d6 100644 --- a/src/pcm/pcm_plugin.c +++ b/src/pcm/pcm_plugin.c @@ -551,6 +551,8 @@ static int snd_pcm_plugin_status(snd_pcm_t *pcm, snd_pcm_status_t * status) return err; status->appl_ptr = *pcm->appl.ptr; status->hw_ptr = *pcm->hw.ptr; + status->avail = snd_pcm_mmap_capture_avail(pcm); + status->delay = snd_pcm_mmap_capture_delay(pcm); return 0; }
My question is if this is the correct solution?

It seems that nobody is using those status fields. Usually, snd_pcm_avail_update() is used by apps. Anyway, this should be fixed for both directions. The avail should be probably synced to snd_pcm_plugin_avail_update() output:

I have tested your patch and it solves my problem. Are you going to push it?
Thanks! /Jonas

Yes, applied to alsa-lib's repo:

Thank you for your report.
