[alsa-devel] [Xen-devel][PATCH 2/2] sndif: add explicit back and front synchronization
Oleksandr Andrushchenko

Mon Feb 5 09:25:00 CET 2018
From: Oleksandr Andrushchenko <oleksandr_andrushchenko at epam.com>
In order to provide explicit synchronization between backend and
frontend the following changes are introduced in the protocol:
- add new ring buffer for sending asynchronous events from
backend to frontend to report number of bytes played/captured
(XENSND_EVT_CUR_POS)
- introduce trigger events for playback control: start/stop/pause/resume
- bump protocol version to 2
