[alsa-devel] [RFC][PATCH 0/2] ALSA: fireworks/firewire-lib: add support for recent firmware quirk
Some users have reported current ALSA Fireworks driver stops packet streaming due to detecting discontinuity.

[alsa-devel] AudioFire4 quirk http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2015-July/095697.html
As long as I investigate, this issue depends on firmware version installed in these devices. While, it's not clear that which version of firmwares for which model has this quirk. At least, firmware version 5.7.0, 5.7.3 and 5.8.0 for AudioFire2/AudioFire4/AudioFirePre8 have this quirk.
This patchset applies a solution for this issue, with my assumption that 'the same firmware binary has the same quirk'. These models, AudioFire8 (since Jul 2009) and Gibson Robot Interface Pack (RIP) series uses the same firmware binary in driver package.

Fireworks uses TSB43CB43(IceLynx-Micro) as its IEC 61883-1/6 interface. This chip includes ARM7 core, and loads and runs program. The firmware is stored in on-board memory and loaded every powering-on from it.
Echo Audio ships several versions of firmwares for each model. These firmwares have each quirk and the quirk changes a sequence of packets.
As long as I investigated, AudioFire2/AudioFire4/AudioFirePre8 have a quirk to transfer a first packet with 0x02 in its dbc field. This causes ALSA Fireworks driver to detect discontinuity. In this case, firmware version 5.7.0, 5.7.3 and 5.8.0 are used.
Payload CIP CIP quadlets header1 header2 02 00050002 90ffffff <- 42 0005000a 90013000 42 00050012 90014400 42 0005001a 90015800 02 0005001a 90ffffff 42 00050022 90019000 42 0005002a 9001a400 42 00050032 9001b800 02 00050032 90ffffff 42 0005003a 9001d000 42 00050042 9001e400 42 0005004a 9001f800 02 0005004a 90ffffff (AudioFire2 with firmware version 5.7.)
snd-fireworks fw1.0: Detect discontinuity of CIP: 00 02
These models, AudioFire8 (since Jul 2009 ) and Gibson Robot Interface Pack series uses the same ARM binary as their firmware. Thus, this quirk may be observed among them.
This commit adds a new member for AMDTP structure. This member represents the value of dbc field in a first AMDTP packet. Drivers can set it with a preferred value according to model's quirk.

I pushed 'fireworks3-quirk' branch to my repository. It's nice to test with your models if you have a enough time. https://github.com/takaswie/snd-firewire-improve/tree/fireworks3-quirk
In this repository, another developing line is running (amdtp-variants). I have a plan to post a part of them in this kernel developing cycle.

Hi Takashi,

thanks for looking into this issue; the new patch works fine with my AudioFire 4.
Best Regards, Johannes
