I can compile it under ubuntu right now.

I list some questions about alsa:
1. when I try to cross-cmpile alsa-lib-1.0.23, it cmplain
aserver.o: In function `pcm_shm_cmd':
aserver.c:(.text+0x1f08): warning: Warning: snd_pcm_hwsync() is
deprecated, consider to use snd_pcm_avail()
../src/.libs/libasound.so: undefined reference to `atomic_sub'
../src/.libs/libasound.so: undefined reference to `atomic_add'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [aserver] Error 1

and I find the atomic_sub is define in include/iatomic.h which is
implemented by different kind of arch.
the host I set is mipsel-linux and I see -D__mips__ appears when I
cross-compile the source. And atomic_sub should be found already, but
why it still complain not finding the function?

2. what nodes should I build under /dev when I try to run the alsa-util?

3.  is there any tool I can generate raw, pcm, data such that I can apay it?

appreciate your help,
miloody
