[alsa-devel] [PATCH] pcm: dmix: Workaround for binary incompatibility
The commit 1a9bd0f04481 ("pcm: direct: Fix for sync issue on xrun recover") introduced a new field "recoveries" in snd_pcm_direct_share_t. Unfortunately this caused two issues:
- It changed the size of the struct which is used as the magic key - The struct size differs between 32bit and 64bit due to alignment
The former brought the incompatibility with the older alsa-lib, e.g. when you run an app with an older alsa-lib via LD_PRELOAD, it doesn't work any longer.
The latter is more serious, it disallows running 32bit apps dmix with 64bit together.
As a workaround, put recoveries field to the unused field "s.xfer_align", so that the struct is in an old form.
This is a one-time workaround, and we may need to reconsider more about a breakage in future...
