[PATCH 0/3] ALSA: usb-audio: Fix a few implicit fb sync issues
Hi,
this is a series of patches for addressing the remaining problem with the implicit fb sync. The first one is to cover the left over EP run state at re-configuring PCM. The second one is a workaround for a regression with the hw constraints, and the last one is the refactoring and fix for the multiple EPs assigned in the format list.

Takashi Iwai (3): ALSA: usb-audio: Make sure to stop endpoints before closing EPs ALSA: usb-audio: Relax hw constraints for implicit fb sync ALSA: usb-audio: More refactoring of hw constraint rules

At the PCM hw params, we may re-configure the endpoints and it's done by a temporary EP close followed by re-open. A potential problem there is that the EP might be already running internally at the PCM prepare stage; it's seen typically in the playback stream with the implicit feedback sync. As this stream start isn't tracked by the core PCM layer, we'd need to stop it explicitly, and that's the missing piece.
This patch adds the stop_endpoints() call at snd_usb_hw_params() to assure the stream stop before closing the EPs.

The fix commit the commit e4ea77f8e53f ("ALSA: usb-audio: Always apply the hw constraints for implicit fb sync") tried to address the bug where an incorrect PCM parameter is chosen when two (implicit fb) streams are set up at the same time. This change had, however, some side effect: once when the sync endpoint is chosen and set up, this restriction is applied at the next hw params unless it's freed via hw free explicitly.
This patch is a workaround for the problem by relaxing the hw constraints a bit for the implicit fb sync. We still keep applying the hw constraints for implicit fb sync, but only when the matching sync EP is being used by other streams.

Although we applied a workaround for the hw constraints code with the implicit feedback sync, it still has a potential problem. Namely, as the code treats only the first matching (sync) endpoint, it might be too restrictive when multiple endpoints are listed in the substream's format list.
This patch is another attempt to improve the hw constraint handling for the implicit feedback sync. The code is rewritten and the sync EP handling for the rate and the format is put inside the fmt_list loop in each hw_rule_*() function instead of the additional rules. The rules for the period size and periods are extended to loop over the fmt_list like others, and they apply the constraints only if needed.

Perhaps it would be wise to include tag "Reported-by: Ruud van Asseldonk ruud@veniogames.com" in the relevants commits tied to this series, as Ruud did share a small reproducing C program and went so far as to bisect the regression.
Thanks, Geraldo Nascimento

Yes, it makes sense.
