[alsa-devel] [PATCH 00/12] ALSA: firewire-digi00x/dice: reserve/release isochronous resources in pcm.hw_params/hw_free callbacks

[Takashi Sakamoto]

Hi,

This patchset is a part of series of patches for all of drivers in
ALSA firewire stack to reserve/release isochronous resources in
pcm.hw_params/hw_free callbacks.

In current implementation, the resources are reserved at the same time
to start packet streaming, and released at the same time to stop packet
streaming. However, once allocated, the resources are available
independent of lifetime of each of packet streaming.

The isochronous resources are the resources of IEEE 1394 bus. On the
other side of view, it's a kind of resources of hardware to maintain
the bus (isochronous resource manager). For this kind of reservation and
release, hw_params and hw_free operations are suitable in ALSA PCM
interface.

Ideally, the operation to reserve/release isochronous resource should
be separated from the operation to start/stop packet streaming. However,
IEEE 1394 bus has reset event. Once reset occurs, isochronous resource
manager releases allocated resources. The resources should be
reallocated by requesters themselves. For this reason, in this patchset,
bus generation is checked before starting packet streaming. If
generation is updated, reallocation is requested to isochronous
resource manager, then packet streaming starts.
