[alsa-devel] [RFC v2 - AAF PCM plugin 2/5] aaf: Load configuration parameters

Andre Guedes andre.guedes at intel.com
Sat Sep 15 03:17:15 CEST 2018


This patch implements the infrastructure to load the plugin
configuration from ALSA configuration file. The configuration
is loaded in open() callback.

All configuration parameters are described in details in doc/aaf.txt
file.

+Plugin Configuration and Usage
+------------------------------
+
+The plugin parameters are passed via ALSA configuration file. They are defined
+as follows:
+
+	* ifname: Network interface used to transmit/receive AVTP packets.
+
+	* addr: Stream destination MAC address.
+
+	* prio: Priority used by the plugin to transmit AVTP traffic. This
+	  option is relevant only when operating in playback mode.
+
+	* streamid: Stream ID associated with the AAF stream transmitted or
+	  received by the plugin.
+
+	* mtt: Maximum Transit Time (in microseconds) as defined in AVTP spec
+	  section 4.3.3. This option is relevant only when operating in
+	  playback mode.
+
+	* time_uncertainty: Maximum Time Uncertainty (in microseconds) as
+	  defined by AVTP spec section 4.3.3. This option is relevant only when
+	  operating in playback mode.
+
+	* frames_per_pdu: Number of audio frames transmitted in one AVTPDU.
+
+The plugin provides the PCM type "aaf". Configure an AAF PCM virtual device
+according to the AAF stream you want to transmit or receive. A hypothetical
+configuration file is shown below:
+
+	pcm.aaf {
+		type aaf
+		ifname eth0
+		addr AA:AA:AA:AA:AA:AA
+		prio 3
+		streamid BB:BB:BB:BB:BB:BB:0001
+		mtt 2000
+		time_uncertainty 125
+		frames_per_pdu 6
+	}
+
+Put the above to ~/.asoundrc (or /etc/asound.conf), and use the AAF PCM virtual
+device with your ALSA apps. For example, to stream the content from a wav file
+through the network, run:
+
+	$ aplay -Daaf foo.wav
+
+To receive the AAF stream generated by the previous command, run the following
+command in another host:
+
+	$ arecord -Daaf
