[alsa-devel] [PATCH alsa-lib 2/3] test: Add pcm-multi-thread program

Takashi Iwai tiwai at suse.de
Thu Jul 7 16:30:08 CEST 2016


A simple multi-thread stress test for PCM is added to test
subdirectory.  It can perform various PCM update function in the
worker threads while reading/writing the data in the main thread.
It can help catching the unexpected error or blockage.  For example,
running the capture test with a softvol plugin will lead to the assert
due to the races.

+/*
+ * simple multi-thread stress test for PCM
+ *
+ * The main thread simply feeds or reads the sample data with the
+ * random size continuously.  Meanwhile, the worker threads call some
+ * update function depending on the given mode, and show the thread
+ * number of the read value.
+ *
+ * The function for the worker thread is specified via -m option.
+ * When the random mode ('r') is set, the update function is chosen
+ * randomly in the loop.
+ *
+ * When the -v option is passed, this tries to show some obtained value
+ * from the function.  Without -v, as default, it shows the thread number
+ * (0-9).  In addition, it puts the mode suffix ('a' for avail, 'd' for
+ * delay, etc) for the random mode, as well as the suffix '!' indicating
+ * the error from the called function.
