[PATCH] ALSA: oxfw: fix functional regression for Mackie Onyx 1640i in v5.14 or later
A user reports functional regression for Mackie Onyx 1640i that the device generates slow sound with ALSA oxfw driver which supports media clock recovery. Although the device is based on OXFW971 ASIC, it does not transfer isochronous packet with own event frequency as expected. The device seems to adjust event frequency according to events in received isochronous packets in the beginning of packet streaming. This is unknown quirk.
This commit fixes the regression to turn the recovery off in driver side. As a result, nominal frequency is used in duplex packet streaming between device and driver. For stability of sampling rate in events of transferred isochronous packet, 4,000 isochronous packets are skipped in the beginning of packet streaming.

Oops. I forget to add tag to stable. It's preferable to apply the patch to current stable (5.14.15) and mainline RC (5.15-rc7) as well...
Would I request you to post the patch for the purpose alternatively? (It is perhaps too late for mainline, I guess...)
Regards

You can inform Greg and Sasha once after the commit gets merged to Linus tree by yourself. Just tell them the upstream commit id and corresponding stable trees to merge. Usually the stable AUTOSEL mechanism will pick up such a commit automatically, but doing the manual selection is more certain and faster.
thanks,
Takashi

Thank you for the instruction. I've rarely used the request path for the manual selection. Ok, when the stable AUTOSEL doesn't pick up the commit enough later releasing mainline, I'll follow the path.
Thanks
