[PATCH 10/41] ALSA: usb-audio: Add hw constraint for implicit fb sync

Takashi Iwai tiwai at suse.de
Mon Nov 23 09:53:16 CET 2020


In the current code, there is no check at the stream open time whether
the endpoint is being already used by others.  In the normal
operations, this shouldn't happen, but in the case of the implicit
feedback mode, it's a common problem with the full duplex operation,
because the capture stream is always opened by the playback stream as
an implicit sync source.

Although we recently introduced the check of such a conflict of
parameters at the PCM hw_params time, it doesn't give any hint at the
hw_params itself and just gives the error.  This isn't quite
comfortable, and it caused problems on many applications.

This patch attempts to make the parameter handling easier by
introducing the strict hw constraint matching with the counterpart
stream that is being used.  That said, when an implicit feedback
playback stream is running before a capture stream is opened, the
capture stream carries the PCM hw-constraint to allow only the same
sample rate, format, periods and period frames as the running playback
stream.  If not opened or there is no conflict of endpoints, the
behavior remains as same as before.

Note that this kind of "weak link" should work for most cases, but
this is no concrete solution; e.g. if an application changes the hw
params multiple times while another stream is opened, this would lead
to inconsistencies.
